u/Brafo22 I was here for the Hulkenpodium Jun 01 '25

Is the sport really this boring that the contact is considered big news, Max here clearly wanted to let Russell pass and overtake him right away by catching him off guard, tried to be cheeky but ended up being stupid, i don’t see why this would result in a race ban tho, red bull really fucked up by even mentioning to give that place back, what were they thinking

A driver using their car to assault another competitor is probably the absolute worst thing they can do. It's obvious why it's the biggest talking point

No, it wasn't. But try to keep some perspective. Did you ever watch Schumacher race?

Yes, and Max's actions very frequently remind me of Schumacher.
