See title. Max has always had at least 1 DNF every season. He could break that streak after 6 years.

He is on a good streak with his last DNF being Australia 2022 which is 39 races ago.

Unbelievable combination of performance and reliability by Verstappen and Red Bull this year. Hats off.

Max DNF so we can get a Lando win? 🤞

[-] Dmian@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

That would be awesome, actually. But on the other hand, Max has had such a wonderful season that he deserves breaking every record possible. We’ll see. I hope it’s an interesting race, and not a boring season ending.

As a Lewis/Lando fan, Max has absolutely smashed it this season. Like you said, he deserves to break every record. I don’t want him to DNF, but my god how good would a win for Lando be at the final race of the season? We’d be hearing him cry over the radio again for sure!

Absolutely! Hahaha. I really like him since he started with Carlos in McLaren. And I’m really looking forward to his first win.

I think with the battles between Ferrari and Mercedes, and the battle between Aston Martin and McLaren it will be interesting regardless of the fight for P1. (Though a Piastri drive for P1 would make the latter even more exciting)

Though I could see McLaren not taking risks if they end up in P2 and P3 to make sure they can hop over AM)

[-] Dmian@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Absolutely. There’s still a few battles there. Both from teams perspective as from the drivers one (the fourth place in the drivers’ championship is still in the air, and while not a very attractive goal, these guys are too competitive to not be interested in finishing as high as possible, hahaha!)

Only driver to complete every racing lap this year!
