Yes it does confuse because poor racer is synonymous with poor race craft, which is ridiculous when you apply it to Max.

Fast Driver and excellent racer are not one and the same.

What you are saying is he is a dirty driver.

Max is damn exciting to watch. So much for the new gearbox.

Merc can swap a PU in 10 mins, WTF!

It takes me ten minutes to find the correct tools for a tire rotation.

Unfortunate for Max, that was a fantastic lap he was on...right up to the moment that he put it in the wall.

Should be a great race tomorrow. My prediction...carnage

Just when you think the drama can't get more intense, it does!

What an exciting season compared to the boredom of the previous 4 years.

That is totally true.
You can be in the HAM camp, you can be in the VER camp, but the tense of this season is what F1 really needed because it pretty much became the most boring sport on earth the previous years with MERC's dominance.

I hope next year will be just as exciting, whoever wins.
And maybe some extra teams can mingle in the titlefight.
I think the last season that was this exciting was 2010.
I think in 10-20 years people look upon this season the way we now look upon the early 90's with the fight between Senna and Prost.

How about poor/immature decision maker? It’s a problem he’s always had in his career and it might cost him his first WDC this year.

Imagine this track tomorrow with 20-25 laps old tyres ...
And I fear the worst in the fast blind corners !

MAX was overconfident in his last pole lap and in the last corner ..
This is so damn pitty !

Did we have a change in the Points standing because of qualifying?

Did you watch the Mexico GP?

Racecraft pertains to the actual race, not qualifying

probably its Lewis' "fault" for putting pressure on Max and he hit the wall..
actually he got away 2 times before hitting that wall.. 3rd time wasnt a lucky one..
