Think , MAX won 56/57 races in that season.

Charlie : It was nothing . It was just a racing "IN-SHE-DENT" (incident)!

I love Charlie ,he was too funny...

From the time of the 'inshident' Charlie knew of the difficult task awaiting him driving against MAX as their F1 drives drew nearer.

Tsunoda has 4 years of experience, Lawson has less than 1, broken up over two seasons, driving on many tracks that he's never seen before. Lawson is jumping into F1 at about the point that it's taken Tsunoda 4 years to get to. Lawson was the right choice.

I was hooked on Lawson ever since he knocked Max out in Q3 in Singapore last year. Let's go buddy!
Liam Lawson : 11 races in F1
Yuki Tsunoda : 4 seasons in F1 and improved a lot in a worthless car (!)

Horner is a fool ...

To complement MAX's first win how can I not include his first championship win in that unforgettable Middle East race .

The key : Box MAX

Neither Vet or Ham were ever very good.

Really two guys who arent even in the top 10 all time for F1 by any stretch. Remember Ham's 'no Max as my teammate clause' - he was afraid someone with real talent would show how terrible he is - 2022 and beyond did that in spades when he went nearly 3 years without a race despite having the 2nd best car on the grid. He enjoyed having lackluster drivers like Button, Rosberg, and Bottas - and Alonso was screwed by Mclaren when they gave him a different car and gave Ham all the upgrades. If things were equal Ham wouldnt have been close and still needed to covered up cheating scandal to win. I wouldnt be surprised if there was money exchanged too for the cover up.

Isack Hadjar is/was part of the Red Bull junior team . So they know what they are dealing with as he showed really good stuff.
Hadjar has angry wild eyes , but that can be part of his Algerian side..
This means more wild fearless rookies in the 2025 season . And LEW as the new man in 'Red .

Can't wait to see that (!)
