If verstappen is doing something to be harder on the car, I'd like to know what. Its been various reasons for the dnf's. Unless the car just breaks whenever it's close to a Mercedes or ferrari, seeing as how the only time it's close to either one is when max is driving |

Adam: in particular red cars, I do remember. It's all a little bit of history repeating *drums*

Ricciardo with his 5th podium in a row and Max can't avoid crashing into people. Honey Badger does it again.

Not an excuse. Kvyat hit Alonso who hit Verstappen. There is no other way to read the collusion, unless you're irredeemably deluded.

MV's confidence impacted? Linky
Sometimes there are runs like this - sometimes they go the other way and it's all wonderful (otherwise known as Mercedes for the last few years - mostly). Let's hope that there is an upturn in Max's fortune soon - both RB drivers are so talented it's way better for all of us to see them both performing at their best. |

It would be so good if he could get a race distance without problems, as his talent is being let down by these failures

I'm yet to see any evidence either of these drivers are any good. They can only just get a car designed by Adrian Newey on to the podium if they are lucky.

Max was there to be hit indirectly by Kvyat because he messed up his start. He says there was a clutch problem but who knows...

Nah, he has several titles. The subjects of this thread can only hope that things go their way. That would require some bad cars for Hamilton and Vettel with continuing crappy McLarens for Alonso. The world champions.
Still I think Ricciardo and Verstappen will have good journeyman careers. I'm thinking DC or Mark Webber standards if they really knuckle down and keep improving. |

Verstappen has the innate ability to be a multiple WDC, IMO. Ricciardo is good, better than a journeyman, again IMO. But it will be the luck of the draw if Max stays at RB and they can't compete at the top regularly with Merc and Ferrari.
