and Max has not "assauted" anyone, don't know where you get that nonsense

furthermore Alex always has said he has a simular driving style to Max

Yawn ...
Max Verstappen fan club talking again?

Sometimes it helps to be a bit more objective rather than dismiss anything and anyone who is not Max Verstappen.

Alex who even on an off day for Mercedes, both last week and this week could not challenge for the podium

so I still stand by my earlier view: he is not good enough for a top F1 seat.
Luckily that's not for you to decide.

.

He pushed Ocon once, I don't get where you get "atacking" and "3 times" from

You are an absolute liar if you say anything like that

I've seen champions like Senna and Hunt do far worse than that little push Max gave Ocon

I remember you claimed his father was innocent too, despite the multiple assaults he was guilty of.



The fact is Jos is a thug with a history of assaulting people, and Max is little better.
Shoving isn't an "assault". Its inappropriate, but not assault. How many drivers in the history of f1 do you label as an assaulter by this standard? I could rattle off quite a few, I'm sure.

And I have some sympathy for max because of his dad. He has a much harder road to normalcy or knowing right from wrong when his dad is as crappy a person as he is. It's not max's fault his upbringing came from that guy. Plus, how does he simultaneously distance himself from his dad while coming into his career in large part because of his dad? I'm not completely excusing bad behavior, just looking at it in context.

Rumour Perez will be announced at RBR next week, Albon becoming RBR reserve driver.

And you seem to always be anti Max

You cant really think Albon did good with less than half the points do you?

If you really think that I can't take you serious whatsoever

The only other teams with gaps like that where Alpha Tauri and Ferrari with Vettel and Kvyat also scoring less than half the points of their teammates: do you think Vettel and Kvyat did fine this year?

I had a thought earlier in the week with perez so confident about 2022 that maybe he would be reserve driver for a year.

I never said that. It's just tiring to read Max Verstappen propaganda all the time.

Both Kvyat and Vettel had decent races but a generally disappointing season. As had Albon, Lafiti, and Ocon and Stroll.
And to a lesser account: Bottas too.

I think he ruled out being a reserve driver.
IIRC he said it was Red Bull or nothing for 2021.

FWIW (admittedly, not a lot), shoving a person is an assault. In English law, anyway.....

so why can't you just react to the topic with arguments like I did and have to make it a personal atack: seems very childish to me

I was just comparing Max to Alex after EastonNeston started this whole "experience excuse", so the point I made with that comparisson was valid an on topic, so i don't see why you have to give that childish reaction.

naming plain and simple results to compare to results of another driver is NOT "propaganda"

BTW: Bottas has more than half of Hamiltons points and also 11 podiums, not very disapointing, maybe for him personaly, but for the team he did his job, Albon did not, THAT is my point

It becomes propaganda if it's used again and again and again to show how great Max is.
Someone does that all the time when Carlos Sainz is mentioned too. I forgot who, though.

I didn't come up with the police agent. Don't blame that on me.

Nevertheless: if you would shove a police officer, you would be accused of assaulting him.
That would prove shoving is some kind of assault, right?
Regardless if you did it on a police agent, a child, a women or a grown-up man.

If you bring up plain stupid arguments wich have nothing to do with anything happening between drivers it does

I can name a whole list of drivers who have done far worse than a little push, several of them world champions.

Maybe it isn't.
As discussed many times before there are many more variables at play rather than points and comparisons between drivers.
You don't seem to understand that.

No , it does'nt

in most countries a little push is NOT punishable if the person who is pushed is not hurt or property is not damaged
