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

Max doesn't have a prayer of catching Bottas; he just lacks the top speed to make it happen.

Things are looking pretty grim for Red Bull as they head into their upcoming stretch of races across the Middle East.

It’s worth noting that Mexico also had plenty of straightaways; it really just comes down to the pace and a few other variables.

For the first time in recent memory, Formula 1 is staring down a massive logistical nightmare. Six teams still haven't even received their cars, and honestly, it looks like nobody has their power units yet either. Some bad weather following the Mexico City Grand Prix delayed two cargo planes, and I'm hearing they might not even arrive until today. The FIA has scrapped the curfew just to give everyone a fighting chance to be ready before the first practice session.

I know these people are pros, but there's just no way this goes off without some hiccups during the weekend. And if things get even messier, we're racing again in just seven days at a brand-new circuit for Formula 1.

On another note, Lewis Hamilton is getting an internal combustion engine change. That’s going to mean a 5-place grid penalty for the Sunday 6:00 PM race.

Red Bull is basically struggling through Turn 12. Both Max and Sergio Perez are feeling it.

McLaren really stepped up after that 1-2 finish

Where is Ferrari even going with the Constructors' Championship? It feels like they're just racing in a vacuum at this point, just cruising through these easy wins

I saw on X a little while ago that all the gear just arrived at the race track, and we’re sitting here with less than 24 hours until the first practice session. It’s been a while since we haven't had those Thursday shots of the car parts.

What an absolute masterclass from Lujo 🙏 🙏 🙏

Rebecca is going to be out there waving the flag.😁

Nothing official yet, though I see the rumors are already swirling over on the major racing forums.

Lewis Hamilton, what a drive! Man!

Sergio Perez.

Not exactly a fun fact, I guess: In every single sprint race so far, we've seen a collision between Max Verstappen and Lewis Hamilton that resulted in Max Verstappen being forced out twice.

The GOAT pulled it off exactly how you'd expect—just absolute dominance. Nobody can touch him at this point. ☕

I’d bet my life savings that Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton just cruise to the finish line on this one. Even if Sergio Perez did just prove that the Red Bull is still a beast...

Honestly, I should probably take a stroll through the
Paddock.😁 Or maybe just grab a spot on the balcony and watch Sergio Perez, Carlos Sainz, Lewis Hamilton, and the rest of the crew walk around below.

They really tried to put some makeup on a pig there, didn't they? Honestly, it’s pretty obvious that the Paddock is looking a bit run-down lately.

Some genius pulled off a miracle once and now these kids think they're experts--really?😁

And this guy doesn't even have the guts to push Bottas.☕

So, do they actually think they can just send Sergio Perez out for the fastest lap?

The situation at Monza was left totally unresolved.😁

Toto basically said, "Screw them all."
