      @Bridger This seems legit to me. Also, since the last two races will probably be cancelled, less time to make up ground on Kimi.

      I'd be pretty psyched for the kid to win WDC. Crazy to me that Russell can't come close to him this season.

        Driver Championship Position Points Wins Podium Milestones
        George Russell 4th 319 2 Completed a strong season with 2 victories.
        Andrea Kimi Antonelli 7th 150 0 Secured his maiden rookie podium in Canada.

        @WhiskeySandwich - I agree about George. Such a turnaround since last year. Something in Kimi has just clicked and he has turned into a freakin' race beast.

          @Bridger Yeah thats wild. Must just be the car vs their driving style. Kimi seems to be a natural talent and a fast learner. Rooting for him, he's probably going to be one of the giants of F1.

          While i still feel like the car has been THE major factor in WDC lately, Kimi just seems to have a gift. Strikes a contrast with Lando of last season, to me at least.

          Last year the McLarens were super close. When Max was winning he was miles ahead of his teammate. Kimi is pulling a Max this year.

            @WhiskeySandwich - I agree Kimi could be great. If he wins this year and goes into the next season even more confidence at this age, provided the car remains competitive, he will be a force to be reckoned with

              I recommend Brawn the Impossible Formula 1 Story documentary on BBC if you haven't seen it. Crazy to think this happened in 2009. I cannot imagine it could happen again.

                  Anybody else kinda bored with F1 this season? I'm psyched for Antonelli getting the WDC, but this new gen has caused me to lose a bit of interest.

                    Hamilton's not that far behind given how much Antonelli has won. so I'd pretty exciting this year

                      In general, I really dislike the new regs. Sure we have a few teams very close to each other at the front. But I hate that the poor sods have to back off the speed in the fast corners. This supposed to be the pinnacle of motor sport. Leave the e-shit to the woke-formulae.....

                        It was also really stupid to change PU and chassis regs, AND distribution, all at the same time. They’re suffering from their stupidity there. It’s just not a good viewing experience anymore and they squandered the opportunity they had to grow the sport exponentially.

                        Think it, be it.
