When you're understeering past an apex, no. 1 rule is you DON'T keep turning, you straighten the wheel and ask for grip again.
What's this guy doing?

If Max Verstappen outscores Sergio Perez by 14 points in Abu Dhabi, the pair will break the record for largest gap between two teammates in F1 history, currently held by Max Verstappen over Sergio Perez in 2023
According to Kym Illman, Liam Lawson wasn’t informed of Red Bull’s decision to replace him with Yuki Tsunoda before the news was leaked to the press.
Yeouch.
genuinely who negotiated jack doohan’s contract in the first place because wdym you signed your boy up for a 6 race deal at a horrific team with a sinister management and the whole country of argentina breathing down his neck
Under Christian Horner, Red Bull went from a team known for having stable drivers and an elite development program to one that just dropped a driver two races into the season and has produced one race winning junior since 2016
Yet he won’t be fired.
Community note
The post makes it seem as if the team decayed after Horner took charge. However he has been the team principal since their creation, winning 6 WCC and 8 WDC in the process.

- Meeting about all of Red Bull’s four drivers this week
- VCARB don’t know wtf is going on
- Head of Cash-app doesn’t know wtf is going on
- Daniel Ricciardo doesn’t know wtf is going on
Absolute PR masterclass by RBR this weekend
Again I hate that Lawrence Stroll is stuck in this pipe dream of making Lance a world champion but god fucking damn credit where it’s due he’s doing everything he can to make it a reality
There’s someone making a 5’10 tall pizza right now because Oscar Piastri got pole position and this is something artificial intelligence can never take away from us
On the brink 👀
A solid points return across the Americas triple-header has put Max Verstappen closer than ever to wrapping up his fourth world championship 🏆
#F1
Twice in a row McLaren have pitted Oscar and immediately given Lando the opportunity to go on a strategy his teammate has no chance of matching.
Someone explain to me how that’s fair
Did I think Lawson would not be driving a Red Bull after this season? Yes
Did I think it was possible they’d dump him midseason? Yes
Did I think it would happen after just two races? Hell no
This is callous even by Red Bull standards
Multiple options here
1. Kelly Piquet is in Labor
2. Max Verstappen has quit on Red Bull
3. Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo are passionately making out to the point he forgot there was a race this weekend
Jacques Villeneuve on Daniel Ricciardo: "Why is he still in Formula 1? He has had the same problems for 5 years...... there's no reason to keep making excuses. I think his image rather than results has kept him in Formula 1."
The one thing F1 will never have over Football is chants. Imagine the English away chants for F1 drivers, half the fans wouldn’t be able to handle it 😭
Max Verstappen: penalty and P6
Sergio Perez: worst weekend of his career
Liam Lawson: got VCARB’d and broke his front wing
Yuki Tsunoda: didn’t even last one corner
Meanwhile Daniel Ricciardo on a random beach in Los Angeles:
I don’t get how people are shocked Lando got booed at Monza, not only do Ferrari fans not fuck with him at all but he’s literally in a championship battle with an Italian-Australian and the last one of those in F1 was a crowd favourite around Monza as well
Perez and Sainz *arguing about who was at fault*
Verstappen *mad at setup changes*
Leclerc *pissed that he couldn’t win*
Ricciardo and the Alpine’s after doing 50/51 laps on the same set of hard tyres
Daniel has spent the whole weekend in an upbeat vibe, despite struggling on track.
Meanwhile Perez qualifies third (effectively second) and can barely bring himself crack a smile.
If someone wants to put 2 and 2 together I’ll gladly invite you to do so
🚨 Red Bull will be promoting internally to fill up the space left by Wheatley's departure as per @autosport
One suggestion is to split the role and promote GP and have another senior figure as a team manager for the FIA negotiations

🚨 | Helmut Marko on the decision to replace Daniel Ricciardo:
"The necessary performance only came twice. Once in the Miami sprint, and last year in Mexico."

NASCAR driver Kyle Larson says he is a better overall driver than Max Verstappen
"That’s what gives me ease and confidence that, like, I know I’m better than him. Maybe not in an open-wheel IndyCar or Formula 1 car, but that’s one discipline. I think I would beat him in everything else. You can quote that."
[floracing.com/articles/12778…]
Zak Brown: “I’m not sure which allegation amused me more.
"The notion that I would not be the one making a key decision about our driver lineup.
"Or the suggestion that I wasn’t on board with signing the hugely talented Oscar Piastri."

Comparing a 24 year old driver who had to be retained in order to not go to Audi is not the same as a 35 year old driver who got kicked out of McLaren and failed in his goal of becoming the Red Bull second driver who's taking up a seat for Liam Lawson.
Don’t cry because it’s over. Smile because it happened.
“Formula 1 should be very grateful that Daniel Ricciardo stopped by and drove his heart out.
It was wonderful to watch”
