That's what media are saying understandably as they want re-enact the Prost/Senna scenario to whisk something up to get more viewers.
It 'may' come to that with a bump here and a touch there as the season progresses though both know that an attempt of any kind is watched through a microscope by stewards and its here that I feel that ''luck'' card may again be balanced in favour of a particular individual. We shall see if this continues.

I agree it does wonders for their image but it's just the Monaco race the Gulf Oil livery will be used. Should it be kept on for good would be even better

The 3 stooges need to get a hobby, other than beating down 7 time soon to be 8 time F1 WDC Sir Lewis Hamilton, to justify the short comings of an over hyped driver in a car that should be capable of winning races and it's driver winning a WDC.

Carry on griping.

I'm convinced , Toto's ears are everywhere ....because Toto is a Austrian spy !

As I said , there is a war going on : "HONDA vs MERCEDES" ("MAX vs HAM")

Remember WWII !!!
Someone has said that RB are nasa cheaters, well it's strange that Merc have cleaned up everything since '14 without a hiccup who started working on hybrid engine while Kimi was winning championship and everyone else hadn't a clue yet then of any hybrid, then Merc spannering Fia to accept hybrids from '14 as it's ''better'' for racing environment.

Might as well get onto Monaco and it looks good for RB with regard to Sector 3 Q times at Barcelona.

"IF" BOT is allowed to use the Warp-Speed , he can get the pole .
As MAX is used to split the Mercs , he should be able to push the 16-B to P2 in Monaco !

That's for HAM the worse case scenario ....

From what we witnessed at Spain , the W12 Warp-Speed is too fast for MAX .

I heard yesterday evening : 'JOS (Verstappen) said that the W12 can push it more relaxed by the excess of power , that's why Mercedes has the tire management more under control.
And the W12 can push it harder especially on mediums , It's there where the 16B fails ...
So , for Mercedes It's a win ...Win situation !

MAX has to push the 16-B over the limits and MAX makes the 16-B better looking than the car in fact is...
It's actually not really hard to understand , look where Checo is with the same machinery and setups .

That's why I'm thinking BOT will get the pole in Monaco , because over one lap BOT can be faster than HAM .
Of course and as usual , BOT will lose it during the race as we know his #racecraft really s@cks .

On the other hand : Let's say MAX has a (little) chance at Monaco , because Merc can't use the full power of the Warp-Speed at Monaco by the lack of straights .
Torque , balance, tire management and driver skills really matter at Monaco...

I also expect 'something special from McLaren , because the McLaren is actually a 'orange Mercedes ..

with all the low speed corners, this should be his best shot at it.

There’s only one way to settle this Ham/Ves nonsense, Max needs to do a lap of the TG track in the Liana.

Btw Lewis is NOT the quickest F1 driver.

Cheers, I hadn't gone away but just couldn't be bothered to post anything amid all this LewMax drama but now that I've thought of a way to finally settle the debate I decided to post it up, now all we need is for Max to fire up the Liana for a hot lap & settle this once & for all my friend
