Getting real tired of the "max replacing a different driver" rumors every summer, because its always one of my favorite drivers. Who btw are doing well at their team and it would be insane if they got dropped. If max leaves redbull he is retiring there is no next team I fear

ferrari strategy so bad the government of italy had to interfere by threatening to send the rest of the grid to jail

on a more serious note, since i've been sillyposting a lot about the team switch rumors (coping skill lmao): it's about time that max leaves that fuckass team. red bull has been in an uncontrolled downward spiral for the last year, and mekies is only accelerating it. i understand not wanting to leak information to a different team because of gp leaving for mclaren, but the car is so fucked that it's putting max into the gravel at best and a wall at worst, and your answer to that is to??? keep information from your driver and his engineer??? and not listen to anything your very experienced driver says about the car??? feels more like spite than it does policy.

and not hating on hadjar, because none of this is his fault obviously, but it is suspicious as fuck that his side of the garage seems to be functioning (ish, this is still red bull we're talking about) while max's car can't get through a race without a mechanical error sending him off track? or maybe that's just what happens when a driver and his engineer are actually able to fully collaborate with the rest of the team instead of being boxed out and ignored.

it's embarrassing the way red bull is pushing one of the best drivers in the sport presently away from the team because they can't manage their own internal issues well enough to keep it from bleeding into the car and out onto the track. and the way that they try to frame it as 'max being ungrateful' like he's not the singular driver that has brought them almost all of their championships and wins from the last several years?? the audacity. this is not a problem with max's attitude, this is the team's dysfunction becoming a safety issue. it's disgusting. and if i have to hear another one of mekies' fuckass "apologies" again (while he does nothing behind the scenes to fix the problems, mind you), i'm going to lose my fucking shit.

Oscar's reaction after the interviewer asked him about the Redbull rumours will always be funny

HOT TAKE:

I have such bitter feelings towards the pr team of Williams because when Logan renewed his contract for this year, I feel they did not push out this much content for his contract extension, but now that Alex has extended his contract we are seeing an absurd amount of pr and content push from them for him,

it is making me feel that they are showing how they really feel about Logan, and I truly feel bad for him because just look at how Williams has treated him this year. So I hope that the haas rumors going around have a bit of truth in them, as much as I don’t care for that team, I would actually like to see a place where he might actually thrive and be appreciated….
