São Paulo Grand Prix (Indianapolis Motor Speedway) | November 12-14, 2021

The thriller is officially underway 🍿

Honestly, Wolf could spend three lifetimes trying to thank Lauda for paving the way for Hamilton, and it still wouldn't be enough...

It looks like some of our resident armchair experts might have gotten their facts a little mixed up here.

If I actually had the expertise, the drive, and the spare time, I’d post a GIF of that one famous soccer manager from Portugal giving a rather smug little smirk—but since I don't, I'll just leave that to your imagination, shall I?

It’s absolutely pouring down here at the Rose Bowl, soaking everything in sight.

If Lewis Hamilton can just make it through that first corner without losing control, I honestly think he’s taking the win home today.

You aren't gonna get him, Max. No chance.

😬

Edit: …specifically where Hamilton starts at the very back

He’s banned from competing today, so he'll be sitting at the back of the grid tomorrow.

Yuki Tsunoda is the only one struggling on the softs. He isn't really the type of driver who can make an alternative strategy actually work.

I find myself agreeing; there really is no point in digging through old footage now. Where do we even draw the line?
Are we going to start excavating onboard camera feeds from the nineties just to find something to nitpick? 🤷
The reality is simple: the officiating standards have shifted compared to how things used to be.
Or, at the very least, they’re interpreting the rulebook through a completely different lens than they once did. 😁

I was just about to ask myself that.
You beat me to it.
Do you have any connections over in Fiji?
😁

By the way, I have a feeling if Lewis gets too close to Max, things are going to get heated. Max isn't just going to let him pass without a fight.

53.5

Forget about the nineties

All anyone cares about is the style choices and the moral compass of F1

Honestly, props to Mercedes-Benz. They really messed up even more than they did over the last three seasons combined. Well done, guys.

They absolutely ate Bottas alive 🤣

Bottas is hitting a wall

Elizabeth Mendoza said:Look, he isn't the one to blame for any single situation against Ferrari. He definitely wasn't the reason they both got stuck in that absolute mess of a strategy sandwich.

Sure, if you want to follow your own personal Constitution, go right ahead.

Go get 'em, Lewis!

Seriously, Bottas—why don't you just go drive trucks somewhere else?

Honestly, someone needs to pull a dirty move on Lewis just to balance the scales this season between him and Max. If they were driving different cars, Max would be celebrating a championship title in Austin already.

Elizabeth Mendoza said:He’s banned from competing today, so he'll be sitting at the back of the grid tomorrow.

Well, looks like he's starting from the back of the sprint tonight.

Sainz absolutely wrecked Lando.

Maybe you should go grab a smoke with your buddy James Collins.
It might help. 🙂
Don't be so narrow-minded. Sure, Lewis can be a complete jerk behind the wheel—but let’s be honest, the kid is lightning fast.😁
If you keep this up, you're going to end up acting like Verstappen is some sort of saintly martyr, 😕 (and he is fast, too).😁
If I understood correctly... you're implying that Lewis is the one who's actually the fashion icon here?
