It's funny that yco has said he prefers comments on all teams and drivers on his thread yet it's not us VER supporters that talk about hammy and Max ''100%'' all the time on here so funny.

Sir Lewis runs VER down and leads the final 12 laps and wins the race.

The Verstappen Excuse Train Leaves the station.
We don't leave my good friend ...

If MAX ran with the fastest car , HAM wouldn't close that gap from 20 + sec. !
Dirty air ? For F* sake ! For once .. C'mon let's be serious !
MAX ran his whole career behind in HAM's dirty Mercs air ...to fight for a podium , because the Red Bull was in every single race at least 30 sec. slower !

MAX overtook HAM by the purest racecraft ever seen in F1 , same in Imola !
Don't see another driver manage that soon ..

Checo ? No way ,don't see that happen in this season .
Leclerc ? Ran a good race , but his Ferrari is still too slow .
Bottas ? Give me a f@cking brake !
MAX ? That's for sure , he overtook HAM in 4 from the 4 races and in a non Mercedes car .
Even in the rain at Imola he took HAM down !

We /I don't have excuses , because the Merc's warp-speed is just too fast !
It doesn't looks good for us RB fans , because Wolf has again that grinch on his face ...
HAM smiled and said : I'm looking forward to the '22 season , as he is assured by his warp-speed !

Said enough ! Otherwise I would say too much .....

Merc and HAM fans ? Get used to it !

Another great race from HAM and Merc. Champions realize that it's not a sprint, but a marathon. And then strategize and make decisions accordingly. Second race in a row when VER stands no chance against HAM, and Merc makes passing Red Bull look easy.

Can’t believe RB didn’t pit Verstapoen right after Hamilton came in the second time. I rarely scream at the TV because I’ve finally evolved enough to know they can’t hear me, but that really pissed me off. Terrible, terrible decision by the team.

I think we can put to rest any idea of Perez challenging Verstappen now. He’s way, way, way behind Max.

Wow, thanks for putting that in a perspective. Numbers don't lie. Haters will hate (but who cares, especially when you mute them), but this right here is a difference between a champion and first or second place looser.

You guys have been saying since the end of last year that Honda has more horsepower than Mercedes. The RB16B was fastest in all of testing. VER has 1 win and 1 pole position in a faster car. He is being exposed, my friend.

And it isn't over.

And yes...Sir Lewis sits in energized air behind cars and still preserves his tires. He is the best in the business. To deny continue to deny it is beginning to look a bit foolish, my friend.

It's isn't the car. It's the driver.

Oh...Verstappen Pole Positions: 4
Pole positions per year: 0.667
In a top 3 car.

Not good.

And now I think we can also put to rest the ridiculous argument that HAM can't make passes, and only gets first if he starts on pole and stays there. Last 2 races have been a BIG middle finger to that argument. Even against the supposedly "better" driver.

Indeed!!

It's all beginning to sound a bit stupid now. It's amazing what people will attach their hopes to!

Ferrari used to do that constantly when they had "Jetmode".

I'd scream at the TV for Ferrari to just cover MB and not try to out think the room

MB was smarter then and still are so it seems.

In addition, I'm amazed Checo isn't up to speed yet. I thought he would do really well with RB.

Coming out from the winter break , the after winter tests and in Bahrain the RB16-B •was the fastest car of the field .
I said the 16-B •WAS the fastest car...
And that costed millions for Red Bull and HONDA !

But that changed very quickly !

As we can see that the Merc W12 PU found extra new power translated at the track in warp-speed ..
It doesn't matter how many wins or poles MAX has , the new Mercedes domination goes on ...
Same situation with the Mercs balance issues , that changed also very quickly by knocking on McLaren's door !

HAM's rear end was sometimes twisty today , by this we can see how powerful the W12 actually is ...

And it isn't over.

That's right my good friend ! Let us hope so...
I mean hopefully HONDA can find more power to battle the Merc's warp-speed .
How it looks like after today ?
Bad ! Very bad !!!
Currently MAX can't beat the warp-speed , he did everything and he pushed his 16-B beyond the limits !

By the Merc's warp-speed it isn't looking good for Red Bull and MAX !

Same for the rest of the field , the 18 drivers out of sight in the background...

As you say : a bit foolish ?
Actually it isn't foolish ! These are facts !

One thing is for sure : It was never easy to drive in the 16 or 16-B .
Gasly ?
Albon ?
Last year the 16 balance was even worse to drive with...

The W12 runs like a cruise boat to the next victory !
Ask the Russell boy , and meanwhile Checo already misses his Pink Mercedes...
