The reaction time needed to be a race car driver
F1 twt is never ending drama I tell you, every week we get these biblically long apologies, or someone has catfished someone, faked cancer, leaked someone’s personal info, fighting over Wags, it never ends.
The same amount of wins and podiums as Verstappen in F2 Has lead Aston Martin to a top 10 finish in the WCC 5 years in a row Top 5 Aston martin driver of the last 5 years Top 20 driver on the grid easily
Honestly, very hard to choose as my life as sports fan outside of racing is completely horrifying Dealers choice of any Toronto Maple Leafs choke job, or Buffalo bills playoff loss, but if I had to choose I’d say 2021 NHL playoffs, losing to the Habs after being up 3-1 in the…
What was your lowest point as a sports fan?
''how was frustrating was the race, stuck behind leclerc?'' max: ''i must say i wasn't stuck after him, just on the inters. afterwards we had the same pace. then he drove away but he also made a mistake so i was close again. we put on a wing for the rain, but in the end we…
Lewis Hamilton: “We obviously started the race a little too late, I would say. I kept shouting, it’s ready to go, it’s ready to go.” Max Verstappen: “It just ruins a nice, classic wet race. It’s a shame for everyone.” Let them race.
What’s crazy about this is they had entirely different set ups, and still managed to match the other despite that impacting them at different times in the race And then you look at the cars ahead, and you realize there’s just no chance with what they have got
Charles Leclerc & Max Verstappen's medium tyre stints in Spa. Their laptimes are like synchronized swimming.
Norris after 13 races was 76 points behind Max in the standings in 2024, that was with an MCL38 having an equal to outright faster than the RB20 since Round 6. Max after 13 races is 65 points behind Norris in the standings in 2025, and that is with the RB21 against the MCL39.
Wie er nog aan twijfelde: Max Verstappen rijdt ook in 2026 voor Red Bull Racing. Verstappen kan geen gebruik meer maken van exitclausule (want sowieso P3 in zomerstop). Maar dat is slechts formaliteit. Hij heeft al besloten te willen blijven. ⬇️ telegraaf.nl/sport/autospor…
50+ seconds clear of his teammate today, despite the reach from so many yesterday
🗣️ Nico: "You got drivers wanted to postpone the start, coming up with all kinds of stories that even behind the SC you can't see anything, etc." "Then you had the craziest of them all, which is Max, saying: 'I don't care! I just want to go racing!" 😭😭
🗣️ Max Verstappen: "This just ruins a nice, classic wet race. We either try to push for a proper wet race, or we just say: you know what? We stop racing in the wet, and wait for it to be dry.
Perhaps people will see Norris this year and learn that “raw pace” isn’t the end all be all Obviously it’s important, let’s not be silly, but execution, confidence, mental resilience, and consistency all play the role of “unsung hero” in this sport You can have all the pace…
Race control snuffed out any chance of a good race today by delaying in racing conditions, they delayed by probably 30-45 mins too long As a result, this was the product. Hamilton passing back markers, and Oscar overtaking Lando were the only entertaining parts of this race…
It pains me deeply to say it because spa is one of my favourite tracks… But my god this honks, it honked last year and this year is worse, 2022 is carrying this circuit as far as these regs go
