I don’t know of any professional driver that would ever do something like that. Doesn’t happen at this level of racing. And yes you can still get some level of draft from a slow moving car. Its not much but it is there Read more

That is one hell of a conclusion in search of stats to back it up. You say look at Schumi’s “real career” but ignore the fact that all of his teammates were “contracted” as second drivers. Also you conveniently ignore the “Mercedes weirdness” when Rosberg comprehensively beat him. Additionally you throw a bunch of… Read more

Actually Lewis absolutely needed to keep Max behind him there and then. Lewis’s car was having clipping issues that were causing him to run out of battery power at the end of the straights and go into regen mode. This is why he couldn’t get around Norris in the sprint race. If Max got ahead of Lewis that would have… Read more

Yes. My philosophy on racing is “I race you the way you race me”. You run me wide through a corner I will race you the same way. Max has always been super aggressive.
