He is and has always been mid. People forget that the Pink Mercedes was winning the WDC the year before and even Stroll managed to podium in it.

[@angscrpn]

In the review of the track limits violation it was confirmed that Norris violated 4 track limits AFTER his black and white flag and it was still all before the Lando and max collision, so that is definitely influencing the race by giving the penalty 5 laps later!

[@samg8012]

Who violates track limits that many times? Someone who is driving recklessly and desperately. Lando has a ton of maturing to do if he wants to win races. A more mature driver would have bided his time, waiting for the RIGHT moment. But Norris dive bombed again and again and again, taking foolish chances. If anything, Max probably saved him from a shunt because he just kept getting more frustrated with each corner. Norris was also so desperate to get past Max that he kept racing when he had a puncture. Max got out of the way, slowed down and headed for the pits. Norris kept gunning it until his tire shredded and his car was coming apart. Had Norris kept his cool, he would have slowed down, went into the pits and continued in with his race. He could have served his 5 second penalty too.

[@alexleighton6552]

Why are you debating about Norris’s track limits penalty. His penalty was for diving up the inside at turn 3, locking up and not being able to make the corner. Max didn’t push him wide or force him off. He outbraked himself and went off the track so it’s obviously a track limits violation not a racing incident. Just because he’s going for an overtake doesn’t mean it should be treated any differently.

[@schabur365]

are you referring to this video, or the general (mainly, but not exclusively brit) media? because i think M and T has pretty much been the only realistic punters out here.

[@BelegCuthali0n]

23:14 That last track limit from Lando was not him being pushed off by Max though. That was the one where he dive bombed on the inside at turn 3, completely missed his braking point, locked up and ran wide all on his own and where Max, who was already turning in had to correct mid movement to avoid a collision. That one was on Lando and not a very smart thing to do when you have just received a black and white flag telling you that was your final track limit warning. So yes it may be annoying but I think this system is better than having a subjective opinion system where the stewards have to judge each and every instance to see if someone really gained an advantage, because like you said earlier in the podcast that would open up an even bigger can of worms of teams protesting and us not getting a final result until hours after the finish.

[@walterdann6101]

agree. What race did these two watch? The track limit was because Lando Dive bombed and slide off the track. its not about gaining time, the dive bomb equally slowed Max down because he had to avert the move.

[@tak086]

7:15 lando had a penalty for track limits he may not have won. Also i think stewards not announcing his penalty right away was dirty by the fia

[@Bananananananannananananna]

Yeah lol had they announced earlier max probably wouldve been less aggressive and avoided the crash.

[@mysterionslyther5762]

I think this was unavoidable because both teams knew the penalty was coming. Commentors where already saying only way Norris wins if he creates a gap of 5 sec after overtake, so it was just hunger of max and ambition of Norris

[@F1ll1nTh3Blanks]

Lando was faster than Max, if he got by, he's making the 5 seconds up with the time that they had. Also, it makes no difference when they announce it Lando is not going to yield just because he gets a penalty, if anything he'll apply more pressure, because the cost is even greater. I don't think it's any difference from how the FIA normally are, they're always about show, after all, they let Max move under braking and gain an advantage when Lando dive bombed inside of him for the lead. They said nothing then, why is it an issue if they're quite about a penalty for a bit.. if anything that's the least of their faults.

[@SpartanArmy117]

Nah, Max was always going to go for the on track win. But seriously I don't see the issue with the defending. Alonso and other legends defend like that all the time. He wasn't swerving wildly or anything. The accident was his fault, though. With that being said, Lando could've also avoided it using the curbing, not that legally he has to. I'm just saying everyone here knew what they were doing.

[@dutchbosoxfan8919]

@@F1ll1nTh3Blanks- Lando had fresher tires, and constantly had DRS of course...which Max would have had if Lando had passed him. At some moment, the fresher tire advantage levels out. So I'm not so sure Lando would have been able to make up 5 seconds. The RB was clearly faster in the first part of the race.

[@BelegCuthali0n]

There's a video comparing the collision with Lando with a video from a previous Austrian GP where Max comes up on the outside with Sainz moving over to the left at the same point and leaving a very similar amount of room. In that case Max simply moved left a bit more on the kerb himself to avoid a collision and then goes for the switch back coming out of the corner. After seeing that I'm more inclined towards it being a racing incident as there was room for Lando to move left as well to avoid the collision. Anyway, whatever it was it's sad it ended the way it did because it was a great battle.

[@ThommyOcho]

absolutely, I still can't understand what lando was going for there on the outside.way too impatient and doesnt prepare his overtakes smart enough. He never really tried something in T4.

[@Dagr8soldjer]

It's about obligation. Lando being able to take more kerb, doesn't change the fact that Max didn't leave a cars width. You are not obliged to cover up another driver's rule breaking by moving out onto the kerb. It's only a racing incident so long as both drivers stay within the rules. If one of them breaks the rules, they are liable for any collision that comes of it.

[@BelegCuthali0n]

@@Dagr8soldjer My point is that so many drivers in every race over the years have done exactly what Max did in that corner and sometimes squeezing the driver on the outside even more and it never got punished for any of them. Where was all this outrage and drama-hyping in all those other instances?

[@ThommyOcho]

@@Dagr8soldjer there was like 93% of a car width, excl. the kerb. There was a video floating around from a previous year. but with Max behind and on the outside. He took way more Kerb and was able to cut back and in the end overtake cleanly. Lando did not try everything to prevent it either

[@Ashley-lz9jh]

All of this comes down to “both of them made questionable moves. Max dodged. Lando wasn’t talented enough to avoid the crash” but because Max’s mistake had the consequences, everyone ignores Lando doing the same thing 3x before 😂

[@niel9612]

Hard racing and hard defending, I would rather watch a battle like this than nobody even trying to pass, you win some, you lose some.

Too bad the commentators on F1tv has the worst british bias ever. Hard fighting, Max overdid it, so did Lando, but if you just listen to f1tv pundits you would think max jumped out of the car and shot a rocket launcher at Lando

[@aaronnator]

I’m a Max fan here. The guy was borderline dirty and we need to accept it. Made 2 borderline illegal moves in the braking zone and squeezed Lando on his 3rd try. Any other position, driver would’ve gotten a penalty but because it’s a fight for 1st. Grey areas appear in the rule book magically.

[@edbr2379]

Divebombs that push someone off on exit are allowed and have been Max's go to move his whole career. Just get to apex first and it's allowed. Moving under braking is not. Norris went off once so correctly gave the position back. Max went off deliberately to keep the position.

[@jstambo478]

Lando exceeding track limits played a role in all of these issues with Max because Max had pulled the second gap and was out of DRS range and then Lando exceeds track limits three times and is within one second

British press did not call Schumacher a legend till much much later, at the time he was vilified. As for Max he’s a genius but he can’t be allowed to keep getting away with moving under breaking like that, it’s bloody dangerous. The squeezing that caused the accident was the least bad of the incidents, I agree that happens, though needs to be reviewed carefully.

[@leo-prime91]

@@themightyant. Yep true. Does that make it acceptable to continue doing that? I would just like both sides to be given a fair argument. I haven't seen one journo or youtuber ask the question of what Lando was doing on the outside at that corner. He wasn't alongside so was he lunging around the outside? Seems very risky.

The track limits incident when norris ran off. He only locked up after max moved under braking. You cant just easily avoid that while on the brakes already. They brake in a straight line for a reason.

[@marwilliam01]

You guys didn't really talk about Lando locking up when sending it into turn 3. Two laps before Max went off track to keep position Lando out braked himself and sent both of them off the track. If Max stays on track there's every likelihood Lando causes the crash becasue he locks up again. He used the same move in the sprint race as well... Lando need to make the move cleanly with room for Max on the outside and I don't think he got that done.

Yeah this puzzled me too. Especially as tommy SAYS he is a big max fan and the inchident had nothing to do with matts leclerc, i thought they would be objective about the case. Yet the questionable moves of lando seem to be skipped by everyone lol. Im a max AND lando fan though, love them to bits, but ive seen some on/over the limit stuff from them both this weekend, which is fine and cheeky cuz both did it, but it just happened to not end well for them both THIS TIME, so kind of an extra disappointing race for me. Yet the one sided blaming of P1, the lando tracklimitpenalty taking years vs fairly fast max penalty given by steward johnny Herbert (who allegedly got fired from sky for saying shit like max robbed a title)(who could also see on max his boardcam that the road bends there and didnt steer), Hill Kravitz Brundle and Buxton slightly stirring up the hate in the media again, implying a monster has reawakened, it saddens me deeply. They completely disregard the amount of influence they actually have on the amount of people who find it hard to form an own opinion about racing rules as they are confusing as fk. So if public "experts" blame one side and forget to mention the other, many fans will blindly trust everything such public figures say, only causing unnecessary resentment and hate on social media, especially as sky also denies brits the option of choosing f1tv. The last thing we need is more resentment in our lovely sport. Sometimes a shit race or incidents just happen, even when 2 greats are involved, its just how it is. Its not like nico and lewis crashed every race again after spain 2016 either. Hopefully silverstone will provide some proper beautiful racing again like the friggin fiery lions max and lando have showed before! Theyll fight it out on track instead, so the media can focus more on an OBJECTIVE and complete analysis afterwards about EVERYTHING that happened, not just a part of it because the other part happens to have their british nationality. If you are looking for a proper analysis i can recommend Peter Windsors take by the way he checked board cameras and both their actions, was a pleasant surprise.

[@KoSXxPotatisbarnetXD]

Max was at fault for the incident, but I don’t think it’s as egregious as everyone’s tweets and comments. The moving under the breaking is an issue, but they are both competitors and the goal is to win. They, meaning Max and Lando, will do anything it takes to win. Deep divebombs, squeezing, moving under breaking, aggressive defending, and pushing the rules to the limit are why these guys are such elite and great competitors. I hate it for both of them as a fan, but I understand it.

[@nafizjubaer1717]

Hey not trying to fight or take sides. But i see alot of comments mentioning Max moving underbraking. But if u look at the telemetry/onboards, u can see Max moves n then brakes.

[@the1gladiator2]

"Let Lando push him off"? Are you kidding me? Norris his first launch was from 35 meters behind and he didn't even come close to making the corner himself. That nearly took both of them out. The second time he launched again from 35 meters behind. A little bit more controlled but he again just overshoots the corner and parks it at the edge of the track, which leaves Verstappen no other option besides leaving the track. That's not proper racing. It's also what got Hulkenberg a penalty in the sprint race. Norris should have been shown a flag after that one for unsportsmanlike driving. There is no way to properly race if Norris just divebombs every lap from that distance. Verstappen can never turn into the corner because he always needs to avoid a McLaren crashing into him. And for those claiming that Verstappen did the same thing in the past. No he did not. Austria 2019 Verstappen was only sending it on the inside when his front wing was almost level with Leclerc's rear tires. Norris was sending it when he was over 3 tenths back from Verstappen. This was some of the most ridiculous divebombs I have ever seen in that corner.

[@ThommyOcho]

Yeah, I think people need to rewatch it and not make up or mix up different situations. Bit disappointed in the two. the 4th track limit was the ridiculous divebomb to the inside. there is not one simulator scenario that allows Lando to make that corner.

Max doesnt have to leave a cars width on the inside of the white line, if there’s a kerb there you’re allowed to squeeze a driver onto the kerb. By that logic Hamilton was 100% at fault for forcing Sainz off the track in Spain when he forced Sainz onto the kerb. The cars are so wide they use the kerbs when battling and Lando had 3/4 of a car to avoid contact and stay on the track Edit: So apparently the rule actually is a cars width to the white line but it’s never enforced. Some examples I can think of off the top of my head is Russell forced Piastri onto the kerb in the chicane at Suzuka, Sainz forced Alonso onto the inside kerb at China, Sainz forced Hamilton onto the kerb in T1 at Spain, then Hamilton forced Sainz onto the kerb in T2.

This is the first big controversy I’ve been an f1 fan for, and online it feels like you’re wrong if you don’t point fingers and hate towards someone. Thank you for giving an honest review that allows fans to think about the race without the hate.

Please look back at the Steering input of Max Straight line to the racing line. Norris having no problem going over the white line. Norris had still room to move over.

[@Snazzy16]

It’s funny because you guys said that max would never admit fault but he’s actually admitting fault once. During the Las Vegas Grand Prix when he he pushed Charles off the track, he actually apologized. Charles said so in an interview and that was without Charles asking. Then again he won that one. But he can in certain situations

[@TonyMezaXD]

It’s so rare though

[@KJ28554]

He hasn’t admitted he’s at fault, he just said he’ll look back on the incident and see what happened cause it looked like it was fine That’s what he said

[@AegrusYT]

Spain Lap 1 set the tone for their rivalry. 2022 was incredibly fair between Leclerc and Verstappen, when the stakes were even higher than now. Norris pushing Max off the track at Spain meant that the gloves are off. Sure, Max was moving under braking . But do not ignore the repeat divebombs by Norris.

[@Bobby09LFC]

Dive bombs are allowed in this sport, and Lando didn’t hit Max once, and gave the place back when he went off, that’s hard fair racing, Max turning under braking isn’t fair racing

[@AegrusYT]

@@Bobby09LFC Oh they're allowed now? I guess all that complaining about Max's divebombs in 2021 didn't happen then? Yeah Lando didn't hit Max because Max knows he has to back out in those moments otherwise he has Norris in his sidepod. Hell, Norris literally went off track during one of those divebombs because he locked up as he dived too late. How is forcing another driver to either crash or give up the position in any way fair racing? Funny how the narrative of fair and unfair is completely arbitrary depending on the driver.

[@tarettime9392]

@@AegrusYTdivebombing where you keep it on track and don’t cause a collision has always been considered fair racing. Lando gave the position back after going off track for a reason. He knew that because of the lock up it wasn’t a fair move. Moving under braking is never a fair move. He did it multiple times. He over took off track then he ran into him when he was significantly alongside.

[@Bobby09LFC]

@@AegrusYT When Max dive bombed he hit people, Lando didn’t, how hard is it to understand you can’t just run into people?

[@Suiiiii-6969]

Max has the mentality of a beast , he always gives it all to be on the top and that what makes him very special

[@Emulator833]

I have never seen such a small incident get this overblown. Unbelievable.

[@Sahil.Thomas]

Because a British crybaby was involved, it was bound to happen

[@a1white]

Small incident? A fight for the lead of the grand prix that went on for several laps and ended up with both leading drivers been taken out is a "small incident"? OK...

[@a1white]

@@Sahil.Thomas that you made such an immature statement on a public forum is embarrasing

[@Emulator833]

[@javeedally]

8 laps with DRS and fresh tire is piss poor from Lando,fail to overtake on the straight,dive bomb max ,run him off track, max move to left and Lando turn into max is very poor. Talk about that.. he gained 5 Seconds from a bad pit stop fail to capitalize instead he wants to run max off track… he knows max will get him in drs range on the next lap.

[@jhdb1236]

What did the telemetry say? Did Max first brake and then stear? Or first stear then brake, which is allowed. His reaction suggests the latter. There's no rule that he should brake parallel to the track.

[@MassieveSIang]

This. I don't take Max as a liar at all. He is straight to the point, like a true dutchman. He stated he moved his steering wheel first and then braked. Unless shown otherwise by telemetries, I'm believing Max.

[@chriscollins550]

The data is up max moved three times before the corner and then again twice why breaking. None of them are allowed by regulations. You have to pick your line inside or out side before coming to the corner and stay there on that line till you are leaving the corner. Max changing direction is wrong.

[@MassieveSIang]

@@chriscollins550 you mean during breaking or?

[@chriscollins550]

@@MassieveSIang he did it twice in the breaking zone. Ant Davies shows it on f1 TV.

[@phil4986]

Russell just waited behind the two quarelling boys, like the Cheshire Cat from Alice in Wonderland. Once Alice and the Mad Hatter drove themselves off the track, the Smiling Cat simply moved past both of them and willed his Mercedes across the line. I am very happy for George Russell. He has been working his rear end off every race, to be right there... at the right place... at the right time. And George did not waste the opportunity. Well Done, George Russell and Team Mercedes.

[@LadaHusakLH]

As a fan of Charles, this time it was his onw doing. He screwed up the start, almost looked like he fell asleep how slow his reaction time was which meant he go overtaken and it got him into that horrible situation in turn 1. Ferrari (team and driver performances) wen back to Binotto era these last 3 races.

[@OK-fi4yq]

22:40 the problem with saying track limits should only be policed when an advantage is gained is that it leaves it to the stewards judgement on each occasion. if you go off, you get a warning. it's a good, consistent rule.
