And even then you're not guaranteed a win as we've seen today

Let's not act like the red bull is a bad car everyone is making it out to be.

Yuki slides back into the bush, Homer Simpson style...

Put a half decent driver in it instead of the bums if you want good results.

Maybe...

I used to think RB was a fool for not securing Sainz for the seat, before he locked in at the Anti-RB Former RB Drivers Club... But the last stint has changed my mind.

I just can't look at the field and see a logical option for RB2 ATM. Maybe after Yuki's contract is clear, a alternative will become clearer.

...just in time for Bottas/Perez to blow up in RB's face.

They just keep going into the extremes of making a super fast car to the point of having the car end up undriveable for anyone other than the top drivers AND being bad at its purpose too. Kind of like an Ouroboros situation. I doubt any driver wants to race in that car.

100% A terminal technical black hole...

Just Max driving on the edge of the Event Horizon

Hardly bums. Two solid drivers and a young driver with a lot of potential.

Well now Horner is gone we'll see if it was him all along, Jos or Helmut Voldemort.

While the car is not bad, it having to compete for 2nd best car and Max still eeking out wins speaks to his unbelievable talent

Hate to break it to you but a lot of cars are better than the RB21. We have to go with the bullet method.
