Especially if a Ferari seat comes up, and Marko is a gobby shit. I hope it stays smooth and they catch up. Max's contract running out is the main reason why RB are starting to panic a bit imo.

Moderator Tommy Posted June 28, 2019 Moderator Posted June 28, 2019 He'd push Lewis so hard, his hair plugs would come out of his asshole. DO IT, MAX!

Administrator Stan Posted June 28, 2019 Administrator Posted June 28, 2019 Wouldn't mind Max going to Ferrari but then it would mean Leclerc is restricted in being the main driver which he is destined to be.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted June 28, 2019 Subscriber Posted June 28, 2019 Hamilton and Verstappen at Mercedes would be worth watching.
MUFC Posted June 28, 2019 Posted June 28, 2019 Lewis plays it more safe then he use to, for Lewis vs Max. The Lewis version in McLaren would be better as he took more risks and was young and reckless.

It also helps that your new teammate seems a bit ouf of his depth at the moment, and Ferrari can't seem to get their shit together. But yea, Max has been the highlight of the season so far.

But yea, Max has been the highlight of the season so far. I took Horner's compliments as a sign that Max is either about to sign a new contract at Red Bull or as a way to encourage him to sign one At any case, Max definitely matured a lot and has been driving almost flawlessly for quite a while now. Very happy for him, especially considering the criticism he received after those few crashes/other incidents last season; good to see he turned it around and managed to improve himself.

I don't think Max will jump ship anyway to be honest. He's in a pretty comfortable seat at Red Bull as their own protege, and the team and especially Honda seem to get better and better again. So it looks like the whole package is coming together again, which means they'll challenge for the title within the next 1-2 seasons. At Mercedes he'd go against Hamilton, which would be a nice challenge, but also a very difficult one, and Ferrari, well.... Ferrari is always a gamble

Ferrari is always a gamble The new regulations are somewhat of a concern as well... Dominant team usually changes once new rules/regs are introduced, so switching to Mercedes at this point doesn't come without risks either.
Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 10, 2019 Subscriber Posted July 10, 2019 I think that's pretty dismissive of Hamilton. Just because he's been in the best car doesn't change the fact that Lewis has barely made a single mistake since early 2018.
