Thanks, Chode, our excellent motor sports afficianado!

It's been a good F1 season, and for me a great alternative to the kneeling football league.

As for Sunday?

I think slightly more of Verstappen than Hamilton, (and I do like Honda) so ...

...Go Max!

.

[Chode]

100%

[Chode]

GO MAX!!!

Yep- can’t believe the last race- He had it- not sure what happened? I always enjoy seeing him or soemoen else on the podium first place with a dejected looking pouting hamilton standing on the lower rungs-

The Dirty Dutchman!

[BBB333]

Let’s go Max (and Brandon)!

Thanks for the new and fresh smelling F-1 thread!

[Moltke]

Go Max!!!!

And thank you, Chode, for another season of F1 threads. Have a peaceful Christmas and a great New Year!

[SmokingJoe]

How so?
They are going to use fake “rules” to steal it for Hamilton anyways. Just like they did in Saudi Arabia last week.

[SmokingJoe]

Yep- can't believe the last race- He had it- not sure what happened?

Hamilton crashed into the back of Verstappen’s car only for the so called “stewards” to penalise Verstappen altogether three times for Hamilton's screw up, including Verstappen having to allow Hamilton to pass him by, plus two time penalties. You just can't make this up.

[SmokingJoe]

Max takes pole!
Expect yet another whiny protest from Hamilton and Mercedes.

[Chode]

LOL... welcome

[Chode]

Merry Christmas and to you and yours!

you want on da list?

[SmokingJoe]

Verstappen faster than Hamilton by a very impressive
0.371 seconds.

[Chode]

indeed.

[Bob434]

Thanks- what a lousy deal for verstappen. I saw the accident, but didn’t get why they were forcing verstappen to allow him to pass (my recording of the event didn’t capture the last part). Sounds like verstappen was royally screwed. I’m wondering g if the stewards did it so that Hamilton woul.dhave an easier time trying to sweep the championship? The way things are going with sports these days, who knows if they didn’t deal dirty just so a blm and bay supporter hamilton would win to send a message about their wokeness? I hate to be so suspicious, but things are really getting out of hand in sports these days
