I don't like Max at all so that makes me like him a lot if that makes any sense. He's such a whiny prick I think it's comical and he's so fun to root against.

There are certainly a lot of reasons to dislike Max, but being whiny? Not sure I have ever seen a top tier race driver not be a whiny little *****. It's never their fault, always another driver, the car, the tires, the wind? George Russell, who I liked, is starting to really move up the ranks of little *******. Multiple times this year he has caused accidents and for some reason, it's always the other guy turning into him?

Sorry, I've followed racing most of my life, so I just had to chime in. Race drivers do nothing but blame and complain, until it's the end of the race and they have won. If they didn't win, it's more blame and complain.

I think it's more when he melts down and rips on his team over the radio. Man he does that a whole lot.

Max is just one of those guys you just want to punch in the face!

I think they just play his radio communications more because he’s the best. Ever hear Yuki talk to his team?

Yep, he reminds me a lot of Kyle Busch on the NASCAR side. Both talented as hell but also act like spoiled brats a lot.

Why Hamilton always get's passed late in the race. No top speed.

Latifi getting more out of that ****-box williams than hamilton is his merc, is eye-opening

The Williams has been fast in a straight line all year. The problem for Latifi is that the tracks tend to have some turns.

Guess I’m in the minority as a Max fan

Thats just nutty … watching the hands for the shifting and his feet for the braking and accelerating

Sainz turned into him.

By far my least favorite driver right now. He just has that look to him and the whining. Then blaming everyone else all the time. Ugh

Btw does anyone want to go in on this with me. Probably go for around 5 million

Max is obviously an amazing driver and he's also starting to overcome some of the reputation he built as a younger driver in F1. Definitely a whiner but they all are. I honestly thing a huge portion of the Max hate is because of Red Bull and Christian Horner in particular. Horner is the worst and the main reason I can't stand Red Bull.

Agree with some others though, Russell is the most dislikeable driver out there right now.

seems pretty lenient. will be interesting to see if more teams say **** it and go over now

It does mean a lot but at the same time, Red Bull could trot out the same car next year and still have success.

A point to note is they already have the least amount of wind tunnel testing time as a team at 70% because of their finish. This knocks them down to 63% with the penalty.

I think Max is great, not my #1 driver but close. Guaranteed every driver ever has tons of terrible sounding radio calls, especially after something goes wrong.
