It seems all the teams are shocked full points were awarded. Another one of those wordy loopholes.

Another points rules change to come

Johnny Herbert cuts off Checo's post-race interview to notify Max that he's the WDC after a five second penalty on Leclerc.

F1 crowns the WDC in a manner befitting a lackluster, totally uncompetitive season of motor racing dominated by RBR.

Congratulations to Max.

But for real, Checo better get the win in Mexico. If Papa Perez was that amped for thrid last year, think of how happy he'll be for first. He might have a heart attack, and I'm not joking.

You must be new to F1, last year was the exception to the norm. This year is pretty normal when it comes to the drivers championship

If you are going to try and compare seasons, Schumacher had 1 DNF in 2004. Vettel had 1 DNF in 2013.

Max had two this year.

So, change the stats to:

Schumacher: 13 of 17 races finished. (.765 winning %)
Vettel: 13 of 18 races finished. (.722 winning %)
Verstappen: 12 of 16 races finished. (.750 winning pct.)

If Max wins in Austin he'll have the same wins as Schumacher in the same number of races finished. After that, a win is still a win and he'd own that record. There won't be an asterisk beside it.

So Verstappen will win 16 out of 20 races this year, and would have potentially won 17 or 18 without those two early retirements?

And with Newey designing the car along with that Honda rocket at the back, there is what 3 more seasons of this until regs change?

How is this better than the Mercedes dominance of the last decade again? This seems worse because at least with Mercedes, Rosberg was kind of close to Lewis in those first 3 years - 2016 was especially exciting, but Verstappen is miles better than Checo, who will never win anything of significance, so Max will seemingly just canter to WDC after WDC in the next few years. :boring:

I'm not trying to compare or say anything except there are more races in 2022 than 2004 and 2013

Do you mean the 2016 world champion Nico Rosberg who beat Lewis Hamilton in the same machinery? He never mentions it.

Well it has not been 7 years yet. Plus mostly during those Mercedes years it was always a question of who came in third. As the car was so far ahead of everyone else they almost always won qualifying and 1/2 in the race. Max is dominating this year for sure, but at least it isn't Ham/Bot/Ver every race.

Granted I'm not saying we might not be heading in that direction again. However we will have new cars again in 26.

When Rosberg was there we at least saw some racing, even if it was with the same car.

Perez is no better than Bottas that he can't challenge. It doesn't help that Perez had to give up a win or two early in the season for the team. Those types of situations just kill the feel of the sport.

Wonder if Horner will apologize for calling the other teams liars.

Looks like the W Series is done for the year. Citing financial issues.
