Edit- Also worth mentioning the Voyager interfaces offer a solution for this.

It's reddit. You can do anything you want as long as you love the taste of boot.

What the fuck is happening.

Worth reading the article as Russell does a good job of explaining his points from a logical position rather than an angry one.

Max has always been on the ragged edge of what is accepted and legal in F1. There are even rules that have been adjusted because of him. As long as the governing body is consistent and fair in their application of the rules people like Max may ruffle feathers but should ultimately have no advantage over their competition. I think most would agree the last several years (and arguably far longer) have seen wildly inconsistent stewarding and race direction decisions, so here we are.

I don't think Max or George are bad drivers, but both are clearly trying to maximize what they can gain from the rulebook that governs their sport. In theory the governing body and its officials maintain normalcy through consistent and fair application of the rules. This season however, like many others, the rules are seemingly applied at random and with varying levels of severity. That's brought us to this point IMO.

The drivers now see that posturing for the referee can net them more success than legitimate racing. At first they complained that this needed to be addressed or it would have a major impact on the sport. It wasn't, so now we're seeing the childish behavior play out on center stage while they compete in the steward's room instead of on track.

When F1 becomes the drivers stewarding from the cockpit, the real stewards are supposed to be the voice of reason.

This weekend and arguably this season they haven't been and George is one of the best at spinning situations to make it sound like he was wronged to gain an advantage. You could probably even argue he learned how to do it so well from Max. It's not a good look for the sport.

I'm aware. It's part of the ridiculousness just like the OP.

Boost offers both pretty readily.

Amazingly few users seem to realize this can be done.

Whatever life Michael and his family have it should be respected and left out of the public eye if that's what they want. Having said that, it's nice to hear that he/they are doing well enough to be around friends and family.

I hope time has helped them adjust and heal.

McLaren, you are hard to love. What a shit show.

Amazing progress on the car, amazing blunders from the pit wall.

Congratulations Oscar, Lando, and McLaren. Fuck me that was exhausting.
