Pick the Podium - F-1 - Rolex Grosser Preis Von Osterreich- Austria Grand Prix, Red Bull Ring, Speilburg, Styria, Austria, June 30-July 02, 2023

Yep. Everyone. There are 13 minutes left to make your final changes.

 

[forty_three]

My favorite thing in F1 now is listening to Max cry when someone dares race him the way he races everyone else.

Unfortunately with Nutball Marko in charge that was probably the death knell for Checo.

 

[Retroram52]

Is that not the truth, 43. Prima donna should be taken out behind the stands and have ass whipped for being such a fragile little snowflake!

 

[Retroram52]

Perez gets back to Second Place. Things are shaping-up nicely!

 

[forty_three]

Hell of a drive by both Russell and Hamilton.

 

[Retroram52]

Max is like a spoiled fucking brat with talent & he knows it.
The worst kind.

Man. That @obxyankeefan just keeps sneaking up on me
That sumbitch!

 

[Retroram52]

Everyone. If you have not made your selections for the Race tomorrow, there is plenty time to do so or if you have, changes can still be made.

 

[Retroram52]

Man. That @obxyankeefan just keeps sneaking up on me
That sumbitch!

Dude, he's a comin'!!

 

[Schmoopy1000]

Think I am gonna switch it up for the race & predict Verstappen for the win!


Verstappen
Sainz
Hamilton
Perez

Ferrari strategist will fuck up one of their cars. Flip of a coin on which one. Dont know why they dont just let Sainz be their strategist. Everytime they screw up it turns out Sainz had the right strategy.

 

[Retroram52]

For the Race, I'll go with:
Verstappen
Perez
Sainz
Stroll

Bodes well for a longer event.

Please don’t tell me you’re dumb enough to not see the discrepancy between Max and Checo. It really doesn’t matter how much of a dick Max is. One is a generational talent, the other is a retard who can’t figure out how to get an unreal car out of Q2

no one questions that Max is a generational talent. It really wouldnt matter who they put in the #2 car. They arent gonna compete with Max.
This is about Max' attitude. Not his abilities.

Meanwhile since you touched on all this should Checo be fired nonsense.
With all of Red Bulls dominate cars, with their different drivers. They have never had a 1,2 finish in the points. Checo is sitting in 2nd place in points. Almost did it last year. I think it is silly that this is actually being thought about. Personally I think it is media driven more than red bull driven but who knows. (they need their controversy) Any top driver isnt going to Red Bull to play second fiddle to Max. (who by the way I think is the top driver in the sport) & of all the drivers that is more than willing to play 2nd fiddle to him. Who is gonna be better than Checo at it?
