re: 2026 Formula 1 (F1) Season Thread

He can and has raced in multiple series. He has stated multiple times he won't go to Indy. NASCAR could maybe be a destination for a demonstration race or something.
He will certainly do 24hr races and such. Full seasons once he retires maybe. WEC usually follows F1 with a lot of series changes so even if he does go he will probably come up against some of this BS in the future if competing in the top formats.
Every WDC has this "oh no their gonna leave" storyline

What series is he going to?
Def doesn't need the money, so if he left, he'd go run GT cars. He already dipped his toe in it last year.
I think Indy would bore him with driving in circles for 2hrs.

The difference is that Max DGAF and thats why I like the guy. He's ruthless and will say whats on his mind without any concern for the fallout.
Now I say that, but he retracted his initial statements after meeting with Stefano only to rehash them after the race. Something shady went on there.

Kimi was Max before Max was Max.
Kimi got paid to leave and came back for the paycheck. Kimi didn't even care enough to share his opinions. Kimi probably also appreciated the money more than Max since Kimi came from nothing.

Thats why I like Max, he says his peace. Kinda like Dale Sr did years ago in Nascar.
What about Supercars? He might enjoy that.

From what I understand, teams are using AI to learn tracks and it chooses when to deploy energy.

Like GTP class?
I dunno, I think he likes GTD and the less over-enginered stuff.

Australian Supercar. Its awesome.
Posted on 3/8/26 at 1:04 pm to BottomlandBrew
It is.
I don't think Max is moving the family to Austrailia to race in BFE every week.
DTM would be a better option albeit a different style series.

Australian Supercars. That is a pure racers series. Some of the best racecraft around. Would love to see Max tackle that for a year.

That’s not something I’ve heard about so far. Is that why Oscar had an extra 100 Kw or whichever unit of measure they’re using when he came out of that corner?

Driving at 200 mph with other cars inches away from you is certainly not boring

They bitch about the fly away races. I don't think any of them sign up for their entire season to be one.

Top drivers having fun and like the formula. Other drivers not liking the formula. If I didn't have a superior car I would be asking for the formula to change some too.
This is how it is with new regulation. Just like all the porpising last time. That's how we got "Change your fricking car!"

Anyone have a link for a replay of the race? I tried YouTube, but the only ones I found were the video game...lol

Had nothing to do with the fundamental regulation... Merc and others attempted to run their cars lower to the ground than others and got the porpoising effect from doing so. Once they rose them up to where they should have been, all was well.

Right, so the ones complaining just need to build a better engine and power management

No, the drivers aren’t complaining that there’s a difference between cars, outside of the metallurgy thing… they are complaining that the heavy push to the batteries is fricking shite and even Leclerc, who won the race, joked about it. They are saying the whole PU regulations are shite and it’s like playing Mario kart and not true racing.
