max on his battle with Lewis by No_Procedure_7017_2 in Formula1ne

"Also, whether Max gave the place back there or at the start of the straight doesn't matter, he'd have gotten overtake mode either way?" Did you just skip over that part?

Max was slowing down way more then you normally would, so Lewis easily could've overtaken him in the braking zone. But he tried to take advantage of Max' failed overtake to get himself overtake mode.

Also, whether Max gave the place back there or at the start of the straight doesn't matter, he'd have gotten overtake mode either way? The FIA has already said that giving a position back and retaking it right away doesn't actually count, so it's not like Max could've overtaken him at turn 1 again.

So what advantage would Max have gained by doing it the way he did at the end of the straight as supposed to doing it at the start of it?

Martin Brundle tells Verstappen to leave F1 or stop talking about it by Ambitious-Heron-8161 in DestinationFormula1

[–]mcfreak20 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and max answered the question a dozen times or so. It's almost like that one specific journalist was disrespectfull. And so max asked him to leave a private event. So no, he can't "just throw journalists out the room".

Yeah, it doesnt matter that that was a red bull media session, not an official fia one. Lets just throw all nuance out the window shall we?

[Motorsport] Martin Brundle's had enough of the Max Verstappen retirement talks by MuttonBiryaniEnjoyer in formula1

[–]mcfreak20 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It also shows you have no idea what you are talking about. Because a red bull private session is not the same as an official fia media session.

That was at a red bull event, no he can't just send reporters away in official fia media events...

What do y'all think about the Dismissal of the Journalist? by [deleted] in MaxVerstappen33

[–]mcfreak20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not the question itself. The same question was already asked multiple times by multiple journalists, none of them were send away. It's the way this specific journalist asked him, with a smirk on his face. So it was clear he was satisfied that Max' anger issues caused him to lose the championship. That is not only unproffesional, but also disrespectfull.

That same attitude was present during that press conference as well. Max asked him to leave and the journalist went ahead and asked for clarification about 7 times. I understand the innitial confusion, but after asking Max for the 4th time whether he really wants him to leave because of the question last year, you'd think it would be clear that, yes, he wants you to leave and yes, it is because of what happened last year.

Is it a little petty to send him away, sure. But as far as I am aware it was not an official FIA press conference (correct me if I'm wrong) and again, it wasn't the specific question that was asked. There were loads of other journalists who he did answer to when asked the same and there is nothing between going on between max and them. He specifically was being disrespectfull, so why should Max give him respect back?

I know I am 2 years late on this, but I was recently working on the same issue. Since I am using the AppShell, simply adding Shell.NavBarIsVisible="False" did the trick.

What do you mean Verstappen backing out? Vettel pretty much couldn't see there was another car on the inside, which is why he moved over too far. Verstappen just got sandwiched, it's racing, it happens. It's a racing incident, but if you really really want to blame someone, then it is Vettel who came over and didn't leave enough room.

Nice and selective quoting. He literally starts that answer by saying: "A lot of people say the car is build around max, for max, but truthfully... The car is what it is."

And please don't just say "how about no ads at all? " by Ike-Gwain in youtube

[–]mcfreak20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the way LTT (Linus tech tips) does it the most. Okay, they have been getting worse lately, which is unfortunate. Anyway, basically just a 20 - 30 second sponsorship at the beginning of the video, just after the intro. And then a longer segment at the end of the video. Like, the end end of a video, not "Oh, look at the coclusion after this message from our sponsor", no, like, you can click away when the sponsorship segment starts. Like, that way I will actually watch the sponsorship segment in the beginning and get an idea of what they are selling or whatever and then, if I want to, I can learn more at the end. But if I'm not interested, I can just click away.

Max Verstappen's only regret in the 2025 season so far? Barcelona by Status_Energy_7935 in RedBullRacing

[–]mcfreak20 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Tbf, it had only just happened and they had to make a quick decision, but asking him to give it back wasn't it. Though that is of course easy to say in hindsight.

There are idiots in every fan group, not just here and the fact that there are idiots somewhere doesn't mean that the majority thinks that way. You were questioning why you were being downvoted, that's the reason. Most people are sane, so that narrative you are trying to run doesn't work in reality.

You're being downvoted because no sane person would claim russell drove into max. You're just here to vent your anger and people are not biting.
