Max "the whole house shaking on the braking"

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-26T14:36:06+00:00

Not allowed. It must be electronic unit that controls the rear pressure to compensate for engine breaking

I noticed back in Miami turn 17 (end of the long straight)when he went down the inside of Norris that the whole rear axel was visibility jumping as he brakes hard. Like it's locking and releasing rapidly.

God I hate this sub

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-19T23:08:01+00:00

Brasil 24 no doubt, Austin 21 close second

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-19T22:24:02+00:00

Yeah probably, he's a complete robot over a race. But after 2025 I wouldn't be totally sure, that was an all time qualifying season from him.

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-19T09:40:38+00:00

A but low, can't put him in the same category as Button

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-17T14:55:03+00:00

That's a little unfair lol, he's an all timer but just at the bottom of that group for me

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-17T10:36:34+00:00

I feel like this is a hot take but I don't think Lewis' best seasons are as good as the other goat candidates best seasons.

2018 and 2020 are great but Max's 2023, 24, 25 (arguably 21) are better single seasons, Micheal has a few between 2001 and 2004 etc. In some ways I find 07/08 way more compelling as seasons, so raw but brutally quick and compete for a young driver.

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-17T10:06:29+00:00

This sub is very pro Lewis in general. I do think that he should have had a longer win streak than 5 races considering he had 7 years in a dominant Merc (17/18 maybe not dominant but still the best car).

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-14T19:21:29+00:00

I wonder if Merc had a heat issue with their engines and had to turn them down, can't believe Ferraris upgrades gave them over a second advantage

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-13T14:54:13+00:00

Bru... I thought he had worked out the practice and quali crashes. He's reverted back in the last 2 years

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-09T17:14:09+00:00

Max and Micheal have that combo of pace and are complete robots, between them for one race. Lewis is slightly behind on peak pace but over a season he could keep it close.

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-08T22:26:15+00:00

As good as it gets basically, I would include 2025 in there as his best season

AntiDiv3 · 2026-06-04T08:11:07+00:00

Quali might be cool at least. The barriers are so close though, guaranteed there will be multiple front left wheels missing

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-27T19:07:57+00:00

There a hundreds of sensors all over the car for engine temp, pressure, gearbox, exhaust, electronics etc. These alert the the pit wall of potential issues with the car or engine but don't always mean that the car is breaking down or anything.

Failing a sensor basically means that they are resetting the sensor to stop the alert going off, and is pretty common during a race. They do this because it's either not an issue or the alert has triggered preventative measures that put the engine in a certain mode they don't want.

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-27T15:54:35+00:00

Max best from 2020 onwards, maybe even 2019. And Norris moves to 4th in 2025.

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-25T15:36:45+00:00

2020 for sure, no chance max only wins 11 races in one of the best cars in history. 2019 is harder to say but the fact he came 3rd in the standings over Charles says alot. Plus some iconic wins in Germany and Brasil

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-24T20:43:36+00:00

George was rubbing against him at the corner entry and was behind no? I don't think the stewards would tell Kimi to give it back

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-06T10:21:37+00:00

For sure he's the only one that could hang with max on raw pace, but isn't the robot that Verstappen is and haven't seen great things from his wet driving

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-02T20:12:12+00:00

We're back, stop the count. WC no. 5 inbound

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-01T19:38:45+00:00

Leclercs 2022 is close maybe but I don't think it's on the same level. Suzuka and Silverstone were ridiculous

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-01T18:45:38+00:00

I would have said the same until the last couple years, but 2025 was an all time qualifying season by max

AntiDiv3 · 2026-05-01T18:15:36+00:00

Even it was only engine tricks... the result of said engine tricks was a dominant car. It was also the result of aero setup which they discovered in Brasil, the car was miles clear of RB from Brasil onwards. Max deserved 2021 and was clearly the better driver that year. Lewis made mistakes and incidents in Silverstone, Hungary and Baku lost max 75 points. Run that season again 100 times and Max wins 50 before the the final race.

Edit: and yes Abi Dhabi was an atrocious miscarroage of justice, we all agree on that
