I think it’s even worse because the bulk of the ‘Motorsport journalists’ are Brits. And my goodness the Max hatred is absolutely unreal haha rather humorous to watch because it’s so silly and obviously not biased

MAX doesn't care about that and the Brits

MAX and Lando are still good friends (!)
The Million Dollar question is : For how long it will last ...

If Lando can learn to separate his personal life and his work life, then they’ll remain friends. Somewhat haha Lando seems a bit of a sensitive soul. Which, is not a bad thing. But this is all easier said than done when your job is absolutely cutthroat with immensely talented drivers waiting to replace you, and comes with immense ungodly pressure.

Did we just become best friends?

The other side of Max that the biased reporters don’t really broadcast. When I see posts about him and his girlfriend’s daughter, he seems likes a good guy. Super genuine in his relationship with her.

Everyone seems to believe his racing professional persona is who he is in his personal life. Leave the guy alone and let’s watch a once in a generation talent do his thing.

Lando will never beat Max if they remain friends and hitchhike in his private jet. That's just my take on it.

Truth is the Laren car with it's fast but fragile add ons can't beat MAX's RB 20 with conventional overtaking as it's simply not yet good enough in spite of being said it's the faster car which in itself is misleading for the younger fans by guessing journos.

Great pic ! and no reason to break up friendship. What happens on the track when the visor lids drop should not impose on friendship off the track.

I disagree. Lando can beat Max. If Max crashes, DNF, or just decides to give him one haha. Sports psychology is interesting.

Very much agree because it's the brutal truth. And I think the world and the F1 grid has seen even when his car isnt outright the fastest, like in 2021, he is extremely hard to beat and you basically need a bit of luck on your side to do so.
I would bet in spec cars (something like Indy) it would more lopsided to Max.
