    I think Max is an entitled asshole who is both very talented and occasionally shows little regard for others safety. I also don't think this was anything like the most brazen example of that mentality. Agreed with ohhaithur that I'd be okay with them both being punished. This is just too easy of a way for someone to get hurt or worse.

    Max lost the back but had no idea Lando was coming, especially not at race pace around a blind corner on both of their out laps. Accidental and thankfully not actually accident-causing.

    Combine uppers and downers and set a 30 minute alarm, should totally be good.

    The Mets game taking forever is making it more and more likely that I just stay up.

    What’s the point of having full wet weather tires if you aren’t going to race when you’d actually need them? Can’t believe they use to race in conditions such as Fuji.

    Red flag after 1 lap looks bad for F1 to me but obviously I don't have much experience with this. To me it seems like a rain delay after 1 batter in a baseball game. Did they think it was better than it was? Why didn't teams have wets on?
