Max made his career, he doesn't care what's going on around him, especially if he has the full support of the team, the team leader and the team owner. On the other hand, the truth matters to me if Checo Pérez got angry because he didn't leave his place, I don't have to support him because I'm Latino, I'm a Ferrari fan and I just want to see the Italian team strong again and really fight for a world title.

So I thought Max should be greatful to Checo for the final race of the previous season. Now I read about new circumstances. It was a revenge from Max for an intentional crash of Perez in Q3 of Monaco GP this year (apparently Serjio wanted to start ahead of Max and maybe then still had a dream to win a title).

Some news updates. Nico Hulkenberg will drive for Haas with Magnussen next season. Mick said to the press he is desappointed and that he did his job well... sounds a bit inadequate to me.
Perez regrets about his words right after the race (also he has a contract for 2 next years).
And Daniel Ricciardo will be a 3rd driver in Red Bull.

The last race is this week.
The Abu Dhabi circuit tends to be quite boring.
It looks like the Red Bulls will dominate the race again.
I hope that next season will be more exciting for Ferrari than this year.

Yeah! Congrats to Leclerc and gg Vettel, Schumacher, Latifi and Riccardo.
24 events are scheduled for the next season, but China might cancel Shanghai GP again, so maybe 23.
Maybe I'll post something during low season to keep this thread alive.

5 days ago Ferrari is set to appoint Fred Vasseur as its fifth team principal in just 15 years.
I think it's good for the team. I consider Vasseur a strong experienced manager and good fun person.
And some fresh today news: Williams principal Jost Capito departs team.

Formula One could be set for a new American team after Cadillac and Andretti announced its intention to join the grid.
Cadillac, a division of American motoring giant General Motors, and Andretti – owned by former F1 driver Michael Andretti, son of 1978 world champion Mario Andretti – have teamed up to form Andretti Cadillac.
Their move to become the grid’s 11th team comes just days after FIA president Mohammed ben Sulayem called for more entries in F1.
It is understood they would not join the sport until 2026 at the earliest, with F1 and its governing body, the FIA, yet to approve their perspective bid.
The team would be based in Indiana with a support facility in the UK.

The first 3 words I read were Hamilton, Verstappen and Drama. So, seems realistic.

Hi, I'm surprised nobody described their impressions still. I watched the race today. Fernando Alonso saved it, created many highlights. First his teammate made a contact during the 1st lap, then Alonso overtook Russell, Hamilton and Carlos. Poor Leclerc. Well, Perez made a joke that 3 Red Bulls made the podium. Some journalists call this new Aston Martin a RB19 + Mercedes engine and rear suspension. The car was built by former RB employees. And the season overall looks defined already, RB is too far ahead.
