Let's not forget what Lauda said : MAX is the talent of the century !
I knew it from day 1 and what would come !
That's what I said 100 + times to MKSixer..
Too bad MKSixer disappeared. But I'm pretty sure he's watching MAX and our posts ..

Can't wait to see some races in the rain like Suzuka 2022 !
It's in the rain where MAX really shines !
Max has a technical problem and has had to stop the car.

I wouldn’t rule him out of the win, there’s sure to be red flags that will help close the gap he will lose in the first few laps to the leaders. Alonso now has a great chance to get his first win in a while.

I don’t know about that - I think his race pace delta vs the field will be Spa’esqe. Not the easiest place to pass but he’s so much faster than everyone else.

Mate . Let's hope so . THX for the support

Yeah at Francorchamps I would say : Yes , MAX still can do it .
But here with all this walls and blind corners , overtaking is almost impossible and bloody dangerous .

OC. With MAX we never know ...

Checo gets it then and with fresh d/shafts Max will be extra vigilant to claw back those lost places, Chas can't be comfortable with that where he is.

The start will be worrying, GH if anyone gets power failure around one of those corners.

Max has asked his fans to be realistic and with the nature of the Jeddah track a win is a big ask.

I dig the track. Nice to have walls and not a million miles of run off. Yes it’s dangerous but wasn’t it always. I don’t want anyone to die or anything but these boats for cars actually look fast here. I’m into it.
