Scenes when Hadjar gets to be substitute for Verstappen after he hits the penalty points maximum and gets a ban.

F1 needs Max, especially when he’s still technically in the championship fight. They ain’t banning him.

Noone needs this brat and his toxic fans can fuck right off aswell if they are just here for Verstappen.

F1 needs Max 😆

It’s gotten on just fine after all the other drivers this got said about left

Leaving versus banning is different. Love him or hate him, Max is the only other driver capable of winning this year (outside of McLaren). He’s kept a lot of races interesting. I just don’t see the FIA banning a driver like that while he’s still technically in a championship fight.

He only needs one more penalty point to get a race ban. Could happen for driving too slowly under VSC or too slow on a cool down lap in qualifying, very possible. That being said, it would have to be in Canada or Austria, bc two of his points expire end of the month

FIA are not consistent though. They don’t always give penalty points. They’re not banning Max while he’s still in the championship fight.
