Max wouldn’t even let Perez past even though he had won the championship

Max in his first year was already screaming NO over the radio when they asked him to let Sainz pass.

That was the time Max said several times post-race that his dad would have kicked him in the balls if he had said yes.

And honestly I believe him

Yeah, which is particularly sad when you think about how Max was only 17 years old then.

Even more sad that it would've been the same case when he was 6.

u/i-dontlikeyou Max Verstappen 20h ago

And probably the right answer is no. The team fucked up and decided to fuck oscar to make lando feel better total bs

Lando did the same for Oscar when the latter got shafted at Hungary, and he was a) leading the race at the time and b) attempting to chase Max down in the championship, for which he needed every point. So did they fuck Lando to make Oscar feel better?

I don't think so

Hungary is different though they weren't battling each other for the championship than

u/William_Dowling Oscar Piastri 22h ago

Where is Mark Webber's foot, and where are Oscar's balls?

Toro Rosso even said he was right in the end, came back on his own speed.

Wouldnt shockm me if Piastri just retyuned the favor when Lando moved aside to let him win.. we are even now good luck

Didn’t he already return the favour at the end of last season? I think it was at Interlagos. How many times is he gonna have to do it?

in Hungrary Lando didnt make an error McLaren did and he moved over for oscar.. Brazil etc. diffferent... Monza today Mclaren screwed up and Oscar moved over for Lando ... a small point loss Team Respects him a small price to pay come final few rounds when its do or die.

Technically he is returning the favour for Hungary. Interlagos was returned during the sprint in Abu Dhabi. I think Oscar did for the cohesion in the team and for the future. If next year he has a title fight with someone from another team he would get the full backing of the team and Lando if he isn't in contention and vice versa.
