I don’t think Merc would whistle at Max. They have standards

This nightmare for Max fans has been going on for years. I predict that it will continue until HAM leaves racing.

I don't see the orange army having sleep problems and from what I can see VER is cool about the whole thing.HAM himself has said he's not that interested with stats or records, you on the the other hand seem to be obsessed with them to the point of being an insomniac.

The whole point of Max fans, such as yourself and others, talking up VERs alleged prowess against Lewis belies your post.

I could probably quote 50 posts from you about how great Max is compared to Lewis. You know the old saw about physicians and self-healing, I'm sure.

Cheers!

Yes, I’m sure Max and his fans are quite happy with P3.

But okay Max put down the fastest practice lap

And yet, when max is nowhere near the #1 spot, here you are talking shit, time after time, after time.....

When only the finish line matters.
