I never bought into that whole “If you no longer go for a gap...” bullshit that Senna went on about. Go racing, sure, by all means. But don’t be a colossal twat about it.

lmao imagine RB letting Max go. He could shit on Horner’s desk and be fine if I had to bet.

Disappointing from Max, but I’m sure he got an earful back in the garage from Christian and Helmut (side note, I’d love to hear Helmut chew someone out). He should have just given Checo the spot and not been a dick. 

Good thing neither driver has a long contract signed with the team

Yeah the radio message wasn’t even in code like the infamous multi 21, it was straight forward just let Checo through.

Agree wholeheartedly: Context matters.

FWIW, Checo let Max through earlier on to attack Alonso. He could have held him back but was promised the position back if Max couldn’t make it stick (he couldn’t). Checo is a good teammate and significantly better than Max deserves.

Without Checo, last seasons WDC could have wound up being a different story. Max had a choice to solidify a relationship with his teammate based on appreciation and mutual respect that literally would have costed him nothing in terms of his season. Instead, he chose to poison the well. The SEB/WEB debacle ended…

It seemed like Max was maturing after winning the Championship but this seems like reverted back to his old Crashstappen ways this weekend.

Is anybody really surprised to see max is actually racing for team max and not team Red Bull? I’m certainly not. 

I was a marshall at the GP of Canada

There are flags being waved (yellow for a corner issue), double yellow for a danger over the whole track, and the red when the race is stopped. Plus the White light showing an official car on the track and safety car is shown in the car for safety car or virtual safety car. What else do you want? It is to the race…

They have a light inside the car that show the status of the track (RED, track wide Double yellow)

Wrong. Tractor should not have been on the track until 1/ ALL cars are in single file behind the safety car and 2/ or they are all stopped in the pit lane. Beside, the tractor (or track workers) can only get ON the track after the instructions of the race director.

I can see people calling Clarkson a lot of things but “stuffy” doesn’t seem very in character for him. Did you go with that just because it’s often paired with “old”? If anything James May is the stuffy one of the group.

You missed a couple gems named Kaleb and Gerald.  I enjoyed both way more than Clarkson.

I watched the whole thing and enjoyed it.

There is a ton of daylight between “Telling them to check her reservation” and “Employee called cops” if you care to comprehend it.

i’ve rented from hertz at ATL. you cant drive off there is a barrier that drops. not the stick kind, the snowplow-looking kind. i think there are some karen shenanigans missing from this story.

Jesus, some more details please? Did she blow off the employee and just drive off? Did the employee let her go? After getting arrested once did they not tell her she needed to come to court again? Could you do the bare minimum to get us more context?
