This is close to Max best WDC as he had over the course of the year the 3rd best car at best
Take away the first 4 races in which he jumped to a big lead whilst the car was dominant and he still is leading the WDC.
Nice to see Russell win a race without luck as he has been good this year.

They said that the Sainz pit entrance violation wasn’t even reported to the stewards.
Despite Hamilton mouthing off immediately. Mercedes must have just said we don’t care Lewis.

He's right. I remember Derek Warwrick making a decision to allow Hamilton to get away with cutting corners and gaining an advantage after smoking a bong.
It was maybe the third-best car in the second half of the season, whereas it was clearly the best in the first half. Perez has tried his best to make it worse than what it is.
91 upvotes. And 33 down.
Not sure what social media platform you've cut and pasted this from but it sure as heck ain't 'out in force'.
There is no one I know who has a reasonable clue about motorsport or professional sport in general who thinks that the way the 2021 Abu Dhabi GP and hence the WDC was decided was anything less than a disgrace to the sport. That it still evokes strong sentiments is not surprising - it was a horrible and unjust way to win or lose such a prestigious global world sporting title.
But most of us have moved on, including the person who suffered most from that race - Lewis Hamilton. There is no doubting the quality of Max Verstappen as one of the best drivers the sport has seen. A totally deserving championship yet again this year when he lacked the support of a consistent team mate in his adjacent garage and when he faced stiff competition from two other teams from mid-season.
A worthy champion.
And as they say, the only way to avoid criticism is to say nothing, do nothing, be nothing. Max attracts criticism for all the right reasons imho.

Hang on. So the race stewards are saying they need a report from a participating team before they investigate and adjudicate a penalty for a clear breach of the safety rules?
Millions of viewers across the globe saw it happen in (almost) real time. The breach was clear and there were no mitigating factors other than the usual incompetent Ferrari strategy call.
Will be astonished if this goes unchallenged.

Wow that throwaway post really wound you up didn't it? Lighten up. He has 4 titles, saying he has less is just delusional straw clutching.
And where did I suggest Verstappen didn't deserve to win it this year? You had to add on a pointless diatribe about that.

The word half is doing a lot of heavy lifting here..
I could give you the first 6 races maybe even 7 but that would be a 1/4 of the season

Haha Max was on fire last night in all the post race interviews as he got drunk. You can see Zak’s soul leave his body right at the end there
Max has been having so much fun being drunk and spiting facts at people since after the race it has been awesome.
The above is funny so is the interview with him saying that if he was in the MCL he would have sown up the WDC even faster.
hahah yeah the video showing him going through the stages of getting drunk, you can see how glassy his eyes are right at the end

Haha his eyelids are closing in on his eyes in every scene!
haha the best is his PR girl was caught slipping him a regular Heineken can from her jacket as he got into the media pen

Would have been gold if it was a Heineken 0%
I get the feeling Charles wasn't happy (uncensored)
hahaha oh man, LEC starting to really crack this year and next year once HAM is there (who will probably push him harder than SAI), Ferrari radio is going to be extra spicy
I doubt it, he'll have Lewis covered pretty easily.hahaha oh man, LEC starting to really crack this year and next year once HAM is there (who will probably push him harder than SAI), Ferrari radio is going to be extra spicy
Sainz is quick, i just hope Williams build him a decent car...... or red bull come calling.

What interview was that, I didn’t see that one?
When Mclaren caught up to RB, Verstappen resorted to his cheap shot thug driving. I wouldn't be so quick with the smart-arse comments if I were him.
Iceman!
Brownlow Medallist
4x reigning world champion, a drive for the ages only a few weeks ago to essentially seal the title, won the title in a car that wasn't the quickest for a good chunk of the season.
Yeah let him talk his shit.
Nup.
