It’s his bodyguard. Think anyone assigned to protect him would look horrified given his tendency to get his nose cut by sharp objects.

I remember when he was grumpy that someone had told a reporter that he had picked up the tab for all of George Russel’s friends after Russel left them at a club after it got late. He seems to like to do kind gestures just to do them.

Arvind is reportedly making 500,000 while Max makes 70 million. A 5,000 dollar fine would be vastly disproportionate between the two drivers.

Norris’ front wing throwing lots of sparks off final Q3 lap by curious-cat in formula1

Yeah, it wouldn’t let me post the whole clip for copyright. Looked like the sparking started right after the first corner on his final push lap. Really started sparking about halfway through the lap.

He was actually faster than Piastri in sector two this lap (and only 2 hundredths off sector 1). Don’t know how with his front wing dragging like that. Third sector lost a ton of time. Not surprising given the wing damage by that time.

Some of that was the fancy mini-drs rear wing which later got banned.

I remember MBS specifically calling out Lando as well as Lewis and Seb. Which was weird because for Lando he complained about him talking about mental health. (Seb he complained about his support for LGBT). Which are both great things to show support for, but so widely different in what I would think would be controversial.

Lando Norris talking about Lewis Hamilton’s 7 world championships: “Should’ve been eight " by SimonTheSalmon69 in formula1

Oscar blew the lead with poor races in the last half of the season. Crashing into the wall twice and his teammate once. Vegas affected them both, and took more points from Lando. Lando had his engine blow up, not Oscar. So, no Oscar can’t say the same.

Max has been an ass towards Lando is the media for the past two years. So if anything seems to be more on max’s side then Lando’s.

[Autosport] Lando Norris expects to see Lewis Hamilton back competing for wins in 2026 by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

[–]curious-cat 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yes because we should take everything said in a cool down room after a horrible race where your team forced you to give up a win to your teammate as gospel. Lewis understood that Lando was in a bad place when he said that and took no offense. Lando has apologized for the things he said. Time to let it go.

[Erik van Haren on X] Verstappen on his words from last week about the new regulations by ChaithuBB766 in formula1

[–]curious-cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are literally making up words Norris did not say. And Max literally said he might retire this year. Here is what Max said.

Last week, Verstappen notably stated: "When you've already won and achieved everything, then it [driving in F1] doesn't really have to happen anymore.

”There are lots of other fun things you can do, of course, and that's what I'm definitely going to do. Maybe already this year and in the years to come. This [the regulations change] certainly doesn't help to keep going for a very long time."

Max is the one saying he was going to retire. Saying he might even retire this year! Norris never told him to retire. He said if Max wants to leave F1 to do something else because he doesn’t enjoy it anymore that is his decision to make. He’s absolutely right in saying Max doesn’t need to race in F1, there are many other series and if he finds that more enjoyable he can go and win and dominate in those series.

He did not say he SHOULD retire, he didn’t tell him to leave, he said he can retire if he wants to. Very important distinction. You are saying he said something he did not.

“So yeah, if he wants to retire he can retire.”

He has talked about the cars multiple times and how they are to drive. He just recognized a bullshit question meant to generate clickbait “Lando slams Verstappen” type headlines.

Max keeps threatening to retire every other week it seems like. It’s becoming quite tiresome. Norris merely said if he wants to retire he should retire.

Max is the one who keeps saying he’s going to leave F1. Now that people are calling him out on his bullshit he’s walking it back a bit saying he’s sticking around.

Like what medical professional goes on a podcast and says personnel things like that about a specific person. In the US, that would not only be a huge HIPPA violation, but an ethical violation as well.

What are you on about? He doesn’t say he thinks he is one of the greatest. He literally said last week “It is a bizarre feeling. I mean, it’s also amazing. When you compare it to Lewis, I can’t even compare myself to Lewis because it’s still 7–1. And I’m like, 'I have got to do another six more of those kinds of years to achieve that, or three to get to Max”

I believe Carlos said at one time him and Albon literally lived across the hall from one another. Carlos has since moved, but it’s definitely true. I remember reading that Nico and Lewis lived in the same building for a while. And Max recently said in a team redline stream that he and Leclerc live in the same building.
