MODERATORS
Is it just me or does it seem like something is genuinely going on between GP and Max?
I know everyone has been saying this is just how their relationship is, but I don't remember nearly this many quips in the past.
Remember that we only hear what FOM wants us to hear. They cherry pick messages to make a story quite often. If you want to hear the rest of the radio the onboard replay on F1TV should have everything
Some who cares more than me willing to watch it and let us all know?
I get that, but why would they start bringing attention to the messages now if it has always been like this?
Because there’s nothing else interesting about what’s going on at the front. It’s creating drama for the sake of creating drama, there’s no other reason for it
So supposing this isn't atypical, there wasn't reason to create drama last year or earlier this season?
It's just weird to me this would suddenly start being a hot-button topic if Max and GP "have always been like this."
I would presume they like joking around.
When Max started complaining about how windy the track was and how hard he had to hold the wheel I assumed he was just joking around.
He mentioned it to the other drivers in the cooldown room too, and they agreed. I guess after the rain the wind really was a big factor.
