  1. Fake hype the racing will not be exciting unless you can call the same ol same old top four teams big money equals top teams. For me if any one from mid pack could win a race that would be a proper change not what will be seeing though the usual media propaganda

  2. pff Andrew Newey, Andrew Newey… since 2006 he was at Red Bull… so he was also there at the dominance of the Mercs?? No success there then?
    He didn't design that much of the actual Max era car and floor. He spent most of his research time on the suspension. In fact he was one of the only people to work on the suspension in Red Bull so that he could prevent porpoising. Guess where the problem was since.. locking suspension on the curbs… stop overhyping the "other" British guy.

  3. So he started off by prepping the audience by saying a lot of people are Lewis is Finnished like that’s not been the medias chant since 2021 and then he goes on to prep his retirement and questioning if he can win for an 8th time when he already did and was robbed and hasn’t had a competitive car since but your not slick this isn’t public sentiment it’s media manufactured manipulation it’s programming and you can tell because you all repeat the same phrases in the same way at every opportunity for years now and I can’t wait to watch you beat your words wheat are you going to say when he goes on a run with Ferrari in his 40s I hope you like the taste of feet

  4. ''We all want to see Ferrari at the front''. No we f*cking don't. We want to see the best team at the front. This isn't football. You don't pick a team and support them for life. Sick of this constant Ferrari bias.

  5. Ferrari seem to ave fallen behind,given they've ah exceptional driver in Chartes away from Lewis whom really at the End of ah Driver whom archive at ah young age of F1 career,with two different Manufacturers.
    Max is the really tru driver of the Red bull whom really the feared Driver and Manufacturers whom will compete to retain their Crowns cometh of what should ah Thrilling F1 Charge Car Season…..🤫

  6. Imagine hating and not appreciating one of the greatest driving talents the world has ever seen just because he’s not from your own country. So fkn embarrassing

  7. What a super nice guy. I would love to see / hear Jenson on Dutch television. He is a real professional. Between the lines he admissie Max is the best driver in F1. This is nothing new. You only need a competitive and reliable car. Please not the best car, as the F1 season will be boring again.

  8. I believe Aston and the Bulls will be the biggest disappointment and most of the season we talk about Verstappen and Mercedes.

  9. Cars adding and losing 500hp? Is it just me or does it all seem a bit contrived.
    So what’s next the higher up the grid you get the less Horse Power you can have. THE SPORT IS TOO MANIPULATED NOW SORRY!

  10. 2009 for me was the best season for Formula 1, Jenson and Braun GP was something magical, the Monaco Grand Prix had me on the edge of my seat. Jenson, in my opinion was Britain's best World Champion. Him and his Dad was a true dream come true story, brilliant.
