Putting Danny in the RB for the Aussie GP and still finishing 1, 2 just to say screw you guys you can’t touch us would be funny.
Maybe Checo or Max will eat some bad kangaroo and get food poisoning.

All the talk on social from the talking heads is about Red Bulls dominance being boring for the sport… don’t disagree, but RB is only 15% into the dominance phase that Mercedes exited 2yrs ago.
I think a bigger problem is the technical directives made to try to nerf Red Bull end up hurting the racing since now the dirty air is back.

Taking a flyer that Checco might drop to the 5th (can't remember) driver was a bold move that doesn't look like it's going to pay off. I already have a hard time seeing someone catching him for the #2 spot.

Yep, only get points for correct placement. 20-1 for driver, 20-2 for team. Resets every week, but I can keep track of the whole season if we want.
Completely different from what I thought

Porsche will not join the Formula 1 grid in 2026 as it is believed to have ended its formal evaluation of a programme despite the championship still being of interest.

While Audi decided to commit to building its own F1 engine and concluded a deal to buy into the Sauber team, Porsche’s talks with the likes of Red Bull and McLaren collapsed because Porsche wanted to buy a significant stake – or even a controlling one.

Has there been any news on what Honda may do?
Posted on 3/23/23 at 2:28 pm to Cliff Booth
they are signed up to be 2026 engine providers, but don't have a team to work with yet.

It’s a shame that a manufacturer with Porsche’s racing pedigree has been almost non-existent in motorsports premier racing class.

Anyone seen the Horner comment about trying to sign Hamilton?
Don’t have it handy, but he was asked about it since Hams contract is up end of year. Horner said he’s committed to the Checo/Max duo

“We won’t be able to accommodate Lewis” or something like that. Christian can’t help himself.
RBR with Max is not set up to have two #1 drivers. It will always be max and a clear #2.

Of course, there's no way Racey let's that happen, right? With Max coming up for a contract renewal, would he favor Perez in order to knock Max down a peg or two? Looks like all the drama this year will be inside RBR.

RBR would have no reason to pay Lewis the salary he’s going to demand when they’ll already be the favorite run away with both championships.

Why would Redbull want the 2nd best driver at Merc? They already have a #2 in Checo.

Max's dads head almost exploded after the last race. he looked like he was ready to kill someone because Max came in second. I was thinking did he expect them to tell Checco to just stop in the middle of the track and wait on Max. Checco earned the win and Max earned 2nd.

No. Letting Max get the fastest lap told me all I need to know. They didn't want Checco in 1st place for even a single race.

Also, lets not forget when Ham took the knee for BLM and most of the others drivers bowed down too except Max did not. That one act is why I like Max.

That's not quite how I see it. The team would prefer to keep the harmony, and they told them to drive to a lap time. But they know Max does what he wants and they can't do anything about it, so they aren't going to be too insistent to him over the radio or scold him.
"Multi 21!"

Think it’s a given Ham stays with Merc, but would Papa Stroll kick his kid out and bring in Ham if they are #2 in constructors this year?
