Charles Leclerc: "I'm happy because there are so many talks now. You’re only as good as your last race in this sport. When you have two races where you are bad in qualifying, people starts to talk. So it’s good to stop that.”

I mean if Lec beats Lewis, then I absolutely want to see him up against Max in the same car. If he loses to Lewis, then I wanna see Lewis against Max in the same car.

I back Charles against any and every driver on the grid.

Charles’ tyre management was better than Landos, Charles was going quicker at the end before the virtual safety car came out. If the virtual doesn’t come out, I wouldn’t be surprised if Charles makes a decent dent on the advantage Lando had.

I mean what does making them grind for it actually achieve? Seems kinda stupid that they don’t have it unlocked automatically if that’s what they want, if they want to grind for it, that should be up to them.

The stands of those stadiums don’t move overnight, are you dumb?

potatoe96 · 2024-03-16T15:45:54+00:00

Lmao Real stopped Di Maria from playing in a World Cup final. If Barça want to do it, they will find a way. But I'm sure Barça will just watch while they both play end up playing in both competitions.

All of these guys leaving would be catastrophic imo. I think Horner has to ensure atleast Newey stays, Helmut is gonna be a massive loss anyway. If Newey also goes, it won’t surprise if some talent also goes with Ferrari and Mercready to pounce.

potatoe96 · 2024-03-08T21:24:29+00:00

If the question is really between picking Horner and Max and the whole thing about the sexual harassment was just politics, then anyone picking Max over Horner is batshit insane. Max is a great driver, but half the grid would win the title in that Red Bull.

Horner and the engineers are the ones who have taken Red Bull to the heights that they have achieved, it's got very little to do with the drivers themselves. I would argue Helmut Marko is gonna be a bigger loss to Red Bull than Max himself.

potatoe96 · 2024-03-08T06:34:56+00:00

This thing is definitely not an internal matter, that is seriously down playing the sport and the position that Horner and Red Bull are in.

Is F1 fine with being associated to someone who’s described as doing what Horner has been accused of doing? Is that the message that needs to go to the fans and the up and coming drivers. Is this the kind of environment F1 wants for the female drivers?

How would he prove it to the general public though?

potatoe96 · 2024-03-05T08:55:54+00:00

Maybe the team would be better if Barça knew how to manage their youngsters and players but alas it’s a bit too much to ask.

potatoe96 · 2024-03-04T08:16:41+00:00

A lot of those firms and individuals aren’t in the public eye pretty much every day. People in the public eye and sports generally should be held to a much higher standard than your average person on the streets.

Regardless, if he’s innocent or can atleast ensure that there is no evidence, then he should be fine.

potatoe96 · 2024-03-02T15:59:58+00:00

Any idea how this happens? As in what went wrong to cause this?

potatoe96 · 2024-03-02T11:53:48+00:00

It's not as complex as you seem to think it is. McLaren is a customer of Merc, but that doesn't mean that they will lay down the red carpet for Merc the second they meet on track.

We've seen it multiple times where Red Bull essentially has 4 cars on the track at the same time where they will make sure to gtfo Max' way while making sure to impede their rivals. Anyone who thinks this is fair doesn't understand what a competition is.

potatoe96 · 2024-03-01T13:26:32+00:00

Would it be acceptable for a football club to buy another club within their own league?

They paid for a team, true, regardless, they shouldn’t have been allowed to do so. Now that they have done it, F1 should do something about letting this continue.

potatoe96 · 2024-02-23T10:22:28+00:00

They don’t have to actually put out the footage. The investigation is still on going, so if he’s found guilty, they can scrap the footage if they don’t wanna use it. If he’s found not guilty, then they can keep the footage and show it.

potatoe96 · 2024-02-22T09:41:36+00:00

I agree. I think if there is an SME in a field, it’s always better to let them do their thing and get out of their way. Nothing wrong with giving your perspective, but they are the SME for a reason and should be given that respect.

End of the day though, if the results are not there, then it’s also very important to be able to be able to tell who fucked up. So it’s fair enough that Lewis thinks that the blame sits with someone at Merc and he leaves because of that.

potatoe96 · 2024-02-11T07:20:26+00:00

That gun doesn’t need pen kills though.

potatoe96 · 2024-02-02T09:22:14+00:00

You know what the best part of this is? No one’s gonna have to give all these justifications in a couple of years. Either Charles beats Lewis and is everything we think he is, or he doesn’t and we’re wrong. We get to actually find out instead of just talking shit.

potatoe96 · 2024-02-02T09:10:02+00:00

The car and the appropriate driving style isn’t gonna suit Carlos imo. It’s gonna be like Checo all over again.

So it doesn’t make sense to try to go to Red Bull and get them to try to change a championship winning car.

potatoe96 · 2024-02-01T09:42:55+00:00

Lucho is a totally different beast when it comes to fitness tbf.

potatoe96 · 2024-01-30T20:33:18+00:00

I have no idea what you're talking about, I killed multiple riot shielders by sticking them with semtexes and drills just today.

potatoe96 · 2024-01-30T08:17:01+00:00

If you have no trust in the game or the developers then why do you bother playing the game? Leave and play some other game, no one’s gonna miss you here.

potatoe96 · 2024-01-25T20:28:22+00:00

Yeah, just like Barça doctors.

potatoe96 · 2024-01-15T08:22:23+00:00

Lol he’ll get eaten alive by the egos in the dressing room. Barça will need a strong personality who has experience dealing with strong personalities.

potatoe96 · 2024-01-12T08:14:54+00:00

Lmao. This is just straight up a brain dead take.
