F1 2022

Always enjoy Brazil. May be my favourite race, but also like Canada and Silverstone.

Pity Mercedes have only really shown this pace now. Would have been interesting to see how things would have panned out if they improved earlier in season, and if Ferrari had done better to hang in there.

I suspect Hamilton was happy to come home in second place in the end, the 1-2 would have been huge for the team after such a long time being poor. Brilliant weekend from Russell, the sprint race really set things up for him.

Verstappen is clearly bigger than Red Bull, and he knows it. Has Perez ever helped Verstappen out? Didn't Perez drive superbly to slow down at Hamilton last year at Abu Dabi, purely to assist Verstappen in his title charge?

I hope Perez never helps Verstappen again, and steps up a notch to directly challenge him next year.

Interesting words from Perez on his team radio after the finish. It would appear he isn’t that big a fan of Max.

I wish I had been at the Red Bull de-brief to hear why Max wouldn't let his team mate back through.

Max's Radio
''Don't ask me again, are we clear about that?''

Which would unfortunately see him out of the door.

Sounds like Perez is on the way out by all accounts...

Looks like Danny ric is going back to RB as a reserve driver but I havent seen anything about Perez on the way out.

Might just have been clickbait, but I read an article somewhere yesterday that suggested Riciardo is going to be more than reserve.

ricciardo will be the 3rd driver. Doing the promo stuff etc. he won’t be racing, doing practice sessions etc.

checo has one year left on his contract…maybe after that, D-Ric slots in….but we’ve been there before

Hopefully next season, Lewis will have a better car, Red Bull won't cheat and as Masi got sacked, he won't be able to stop Lewis from winning his well deserved 8th world Championship that was stolen from him last season.

He's done it 7 times before (should have been 8), why shouldn't he win next year?

He was probably just referring to the bit about RB not cheating...
