Remember THIS photo post Turkey 2010? Again, I don't believe that Webber had any reason to apologise. More Red Bull PR addressing bulls**t. |

I would agree with you about "every other team". Not so sure about Ferrari and Mercedes. They each have a superstar No 1 driver and a safe-pair-of-hands No 2. Obviously the superstar's seats would be safe so would either of them be keen on taking a punt like that? It might work, or it might be an unmitigated disaster, with lost points and inter-driver friction (I suspect Max is not the easiest person to live with).

Yep that’s a view I share. Danny boy is the first he has come up against in his short career who is matching him (well soundly beating him for the 3rd year in a row actually). Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

There's no real doubt that Daniel has the upper hand now - and I think Horner and Marko know it, only too well!

He should have that tattoo'd somewhere fairly prominently, shouldn't he?!

He’s still learning, he needs to realise that he is not quite there yet

Max Verstappen has raced in 66 World Championship Grand Prix. Juan Manuel Fangio raced in 51. We know why this is the case. My point is that it isn’t race experience he’s lacking, but general experience.

Have we ever had a champion, or joint champions so maybe we could go Dutch.

I believe they still have the count back rule in the event of a tie so there could never be joint champions.

There has never been a situation where they have had to use tiebreak, so that’s probably just as well

Wasn't it always inevitable that he was going to have to reign in his aggression? I mentioned last year or two years ago that I wondered if he would end up in a wreck bad enough to shake too much of it out to where he lost his edge too much. It's been more a death of a thousand cuts and some words from the bosses. He is still a generational talent, and is still very young, so I don't think it's time to write him off or anything. And yes, even without the 2016 win in Spain he would still be on the f1 grid. His race in the rain in Brazil(?) still happened, as did other great showings. We shouldn't forget he could be pressing to make things happen after losing so many opportunities due to the teams failures last year. I'd say it's about even by now though
