@themightyant Agree with you regarding the sandbagging. I think they've got more power in that car than they're letting on. And it would be typical that Checo would be absolutely flying if Max were to have an incident.
Maybe we need the Red Bulls to emulate the Mercedes' collision at Spain in 2016...
@KAIRU Was thinking this when Checo was briefly competing, a few RBR teammate collisions would give us incredibly tight racing. It's generally been so close behind.
Alternatively what we as fans need is Max to have a more consistent teammate who at least makes it closer to a fight. But I understand why RBR and Horner wouldn't want that. You want a Bottas more than a Rosberg (and that was only really one season).
Almost impossible to have two top drivers competing for the title and not self sabotaging. Look what happened in 2007 with Alonso and Hamilton! They fought so much, split so many wins, and Lewis in particular got some pretty bad luck in the last 2 races which let their competition Kimi Raikkonen come and win the drivers title at the final race. It also caused a schism in the camp that led to Alonso moving on, bad blood. Great for us, but terrible for the team. Kicking themselves!

@themightyant It would be nice to see someone other than a Red Bull win a few races, to be honest. Even if it were only once or twice.

It's good to see Mercedes become a bit more competitive now. Ferrari seem to be stuck in their ways and I worry they're going to continue to fall behind Mercedes and Aston Martin if they
