I think Toto now would have a much different decision to make with what he now knows to be true for 2026 - a) the car is fast and b) the driver pairing and the team dynamics are positive.

All teams want to win the manufacturers' title, which requires two drivers. I don't think Max and George would be a good mix, and I think Max could destroy Kimi's mental growth.

So happy for Kimi! Great battle between Ferraris. The hybrid setups are still dumb. 7 DNFs!?

[Giles]

Two DNSs

[WhiskeySandwich]

Yup and it seems like the fia is still wanting to stay tight-lipped about the issues with the cars

there's probably no catching mercs and Ferrari at this point.. unless engine manufacturers can sort out the PU issues quick..

The FIA fuckers will most likely change the rules to sort that out.....

[louisbosco]

@Giles pretty sure the whole sport in the past few years have revolved around that whenever there's major advantage to 1 or 2

I guess we're not getting Jolyon Palmer's Analysis for the 2026 season? That's extremely disappointing.

This season is meh. Shouldn’t have done new regs and PUs at the same time. I think the former has potential and the latter was a miss.

Sure there have been overtakes and battles but they feel artificial to me.

@mclaincausey just wait until next season when they introduce green and red shells, and banana peels to go with this season’s mushrooms
