@@j.vanderknaap9446 How do they make more money that way? I can understand how they make money by going to Las Vegas and to Qatar, but not how it is more money by doing them back-to-back instead of having at least 2 weeks between them. Las Vegas could be moved a week earlier.
@@irgiefarras Yes, "reduce carbon footprint" would be to finish the season in the Americas, with the final race of course in Brazil. The other Americas races (COTA, Mexico, Las Vegas) shortly before that.
Max taking the title in Vegas would be absolute scenes He hates all the show around it but he likes the track, and the show we would get for him winning the title would be absolutely insane to watch and I think he wouldn't mind it anymore
So Max won on his first championship chance, Lewis lost his first season by 1 point and won the next. Michael Schumacher, Mika Hakkinnen, Sebastian Vettel, Villeneuve won at the first chance they got. Norris is a really good driver but sorry to say that he is not (yet) champion material.
For real. It pisses me off so much when people talk like Lando hasn't been in the sport the same amount of years as Verstappen when he won his first championship, like he's some kind of rookie. Bottling almost all his poles in Turn 1 is just embarrassing at this stage in his career.
He will never be. Look at how much experience he has, yet he bottles with pressure put on him. The papaya is by far the best car this year but the gap in car performance will become smaller.
Norris in 2024 reminds me of Jorge Martín in MotoGP in 2023, very fast over one lap, but just a bit too mistake-prone and rough around the edges in overall race trim to beat a more experienced pilot and team when it comes to winning a title(s). But Martín, and every other rider and driver, learns a huge amount the first time they're consistently in a position to win races, it's how you apply that going forward. If Lando is still having bad starts and getting shown up in wheel-to-wheel battles next year as well, then it'd be fair to ask if he ever has what it takes.
I mean comparing anyone with Max is a little unfair for the driver. And for Lando, the British media hype did him wrong i guess. Its like Charles.. He too makes mistakes, but he has never been hyped up like Lando for Championship battle.. Hence his mistakes are easily forgotten. Lando would have also been like that if not for the hype and the badmouth he has. "Luck it seems"
@@sander2723 nah, you said the exact, identical thing about Rossburg in 2013. He beat Hamilton despite no help from his team. He just dedicated one year to fully commit all or nothing. Lando has the opportunity, but I think only once.
Charles is about to get a win for matt in vegas. Almost won last year. Super fast at other fast tracks like baku and monza this year. Leclerc is getting the W.
I don't really get how Lando is experiencing 'slander' when the main observations of his mentality and performance this season were also made about Charles when he was Max's closest competitor; giving away pole positions and demonstrating a harsh, self-defeating mentality when losing or making avoidable mistakes etc. People said the same about him too! The only difference is that Charles didn't talk Max down while doing it, so there was nothing for fans to get defensive about. Lando also made weird digs at Lewis, and it's natural that people just don't tend to like bad losers or bad winners. I don't necessarily agree with people saying he's washed or he's never gonna win it because the cars change, drivers can mature, but I still don't think these criticisms amount to 'slander' imo

@@Ibukun_1 Death threats aren't slander tho, the definition of slander is lies/making knowingly untrue statements about someone to damage their reputation. But when it comes to outright abuse then I agree, in that literally any competitive driver is sadly a target now with social media. Lewis had all this plus the racism to deal with, Max has people throwing abuse at Kelly, it's awful.
@@Ibukun_1 I've yet to see any 'death wishes' towards Lando and I've been terminally online this year... Criticism is 100% warranted based on his performance throughout the year. Be it on track or off track, you cannot call this slander by any means. If someone makes a mistake you should be able to point that out. He has proven he doesnt have the championship mentality (yet), he doesnt have a lot of self awareness and is often condescending in interviews towards other drivers. The more the season progressed, the more unlike-able he has become.
Charles only bottled one pole in 2022 while lando bottled all but 2 of his poles this year. Leclerc took the fight to Max when the ferrari and red bull were both competitive while Norris is struggling to beat Max in a clearly faster car. Infact the mclaren has been faster in 90% of the races since Miami and lando has only gotten that gap from 69 points to 62 points I think. Leclerc 22 would've won the title in that mclaren
This whole "it's his first championship fight" argument is so stupid. Lando has been in F1 since 2019, he's not a freaking rookie. At this point you either have it or you don't.
There's a difference between fighting at the front having the machinery to win the race every weekend and being behind the front runners getting the odd podium. He's feeling the pressure of expectation it's not a stupid argument
Lando as a good suprise is a joke, that is plain cheating, Matt. He has the fastest car and will still be benefitted with team orders and the FIA giving him more chances than he deserves
Nah, Lando is at fault for his season. Putting Max aside. It’s Norris fault for not doing better at Monaco, and not winning Silverstone, Hungary, Spa and Baku. He could’ve won each one of them and he didn’t. He bottled it at turn one in Spa and Hungary. And he lost himself the win at Baku by bottling quali. And as for Silverstone, he should’ve known better, he’s in his 6th season, not his first.
@@askeladden450 And that’s just races where Max played no real part in what happened to Lando/why Lando didn’t win. Ignoring Baku then, that’s still 32 points he lost out on from just Silverstone, Hungary and Spa. As he should’ve really won all three. And that’s not even counting ones involving Max where Lando could’ve done more (Imola, Canada, Spain, Austria and COTA). Also maybe even won Monza too.
McLaren fumbled the strategy in Silverstone too. Baku was a recovery race after an ill-timed yellow flag in quali. And in Hungary he obeyed team orders. On other instances it was on him yeah.
No driver has maximized results every single race. Max should’ve won in Miami, Austria - and Perez was fighting for the win in Baku while Max lost to Lando. Max should’ve finished ahead of the Mercs in Mexico at the least. Max should’ve beaten Russell in Monaco as RB is better than Merc. Also Silverstone is McLarens fault, Baku is completely due to a double yellow flag. And RB / Ferrari and Mercedes were all faster than McLaren in Spa.
My Biggest Good Surprise: 🇬🇧 Lewis Hamilton and 🇪🇸 Fernando Alonso My Biggest Flop: 🇨🇭 *KICK* Sauber My Pole Position: 🇳🇱 Max Verstappen My 1st Place: 🇳🇱 Max Verstappen My 2nd Place: 🇲🇨 Charles Leclerc My 3rd Place: 🇦🇺 Oscar Piastri My Crazy Prediction: The Entire Race Was Boring.
@@kevikiru 1) Probably Sauber really finish in P19-P20 in no one DNF. Probably double DNF (most crazy things), but clearly, my flop prediction is based on from last year. 2) That's why I put it on "My Crazy Prediction". From not bad (even great) race last year to boring race this year. Pretty impossible, indeed, but more crazier if the race was still underselling.
I've only done 1 prediction of the top 5 before and was spot on so I'm ready to ruin my streak, Biggest flop: Magnussen Biggest good surprise: Colapinto Pole position: Lando Norris Top 3: P1 Lando, P2 Charles, P3 Max Crazy prediction: A Haas or Williams has a DNF. As much as I want Max to win the title here, I don't think we can ignore the struggles from red bull on a dry track.
I don’t have high hopes for Norris or LeClerc winning in Vegas, I’m predicting we’ll get a surprise winner. Both the Ferrari and especially the McLaren have good tire management but take quite a while to get tires up to temperature, which will be a big problem in a typically cold Las Vegas.
This may be his first championship fight, but the dude’s had 6 seasons now. If he can’t handle the pressure by now, he clearly isn’t good enough. Please stop hyping him up. That car, Fernanado, Max, or Lewis, would have won the championship by now.
@@paperplane-db8qfWith the RB19, perhaps, just because that car was fast enough for Lando to bottle pole in Turn 1 and still recover, but in the RB20, Lando would not be even close to fighting for anything.
@ Lando overdelivers in qualifying and gets poles the car doesn’t deserve. Whereas when Max gets pole it’s 100% the fastest car. The only difference is if Lando was driving the RB you’d still call it the fastest car because he doesn’t whine like a toddler on the radio about imaginary car problems.
@@paperplane-db8qf Over delivering in qualy is Charles Leclerc in 2023, not Lando in 2024. The McLaren this year has had real pace to fight for the race win almost all races since Miami. I honestly think that Lando would have won from all of his poles if he didn't bottle them every single time. Bottling it once is unlucky, bottling all but 1 in lap 1 is just embarrassing.
@ no Leclerc in 2023 had the fastest car as well and bottled in like Lando. There’s no difference - example Las Vegas. Piastri has 0 poles. Lando got pole in a midfield McLaren in 2021 like the 4th fastest car - which is something that Max has never done. Lando has already proved he’s one of the best drivers in qualifying - better than Max. Bottling a pole from over delivering on Saturday isn’t worse than bottling an easy pole like Max in Spain or USA and coasting to a win.
It’s a street circuit so bro could cook. But got a feeling he goes out in Q2 like last year and if the car is great and he does good in the FP’s and Qualifying, then he could do good in the race like last year going P11-P18-P3, it’s just his form that needs to step up
Norris bottled it this year and McLaren put a puff of cream and cherry on top. How many chances does one get in a car that is an easy title winner for a top talent?
I think, Red Bull looked good since the US Grand prix and I think, Max is going to win the race of Las Vegas GP. Pole position? may be not for Max, but he would win the race comfortably, I think. let's see.
In COTA and especially in mexico that RB20 race pace was shit compare to Mclaren and Ferrari maybe in Brazil the rain helped Max but Vegas Red bull will not suit their car and it will be way behind Ferrari and Mclaren so my predictions is the Maximum result for Max is P5 but only way he will be on the podium is SC help him in my opinion and win the race is not possible but with Vegas track is not have bad tyres degradation so maybe it will help Red bull
As much as I would love to, I just can’t see Ferrari performing the same as they did last year considering they work their tyres completely differently.
Is Tommy becoming a Charles fan? Masterclass from Charles would be phenomenal. I'd love to see Carlos on the podium as well just to have some redemption for the drain cover incident and penalty from last year. Also to just ensure that Ferrari get the WCC
For Lando there are 2 options for the final races of the season. 1) he Will get away the pressure and make a very strong season final 2)he Will be "depressed" and make a poor final season
Biggest Good Surprise : Vegas Gorlok Dome will claim Stroll as a sacrifice Biggest Flop : Daniel will miss Checo's head by a few millimeters Pole Position : Spice girl 42765 will turn up with a rolling pin and chase the Hornedog around Vegas so fast that he'll clock in P1 P3 : The bottle Lando slips on P2 : Oscar or Osama Bin Russell P1 : Max with 3 minutes of penalties from the FIA Crazy Prediction : The Americans won't be cringe

Great show as always! Matt jinxing Lando...just kidding, but seriously. Not sure we will get a Zhou "Hail Mary" in any form for the rest of this season, yet you never know. Cheers Gents.
All of the greats were able to compete and win WDC at first chance. Some champions that’s the only shot you’ll get. Rookie Hamilton was able to get within 1 point of wdc in his rookie season. Max first chance was against a combination of Mercedes/Lewis maybe greatest to ever do it and was able to get it done. Between Ferarri, Mercedes, Piastri and Max, Lando will have his hands full next season and this year might’ve been his best shot.
My one crazy prediction is this: Max Verstappen 'games the system' so hard this weekend that he puts Lando in the wall. And due to the circumstances of championship permutations because of this, he gets disqualified from the race - *at least.* Probability of this happening? Probably next to none. But if this were to happen, the whole Formula 1 side of the Internet will be an Armageddon flame!
Zhou Guanyu... Jokes on you... I hate how much it rhymes. What if Hulkenberg got a podium? I want nothing more than to see the dude up there. Could you imagine the smile on that guy's face? It'd probably be the most wholesome thing we've seen in a long time.
I agree with Matt, I think Lando can really do great here and I agree at least 1 Ferrari comes 2nd. I am hoping Max can finish high, but I don’t think the car has it to keep the red and papaya behind.
I'll be real, it's hard to get invested in a championship battle when there are three week gaps between events. That having been said, I'm still excited to see them return to the Las Vegas Dead Pig.
McLaren race pace will be surprisingly slower on long runs in the past. Making Red Bulls comments more interesting. I want to see if they continue to have the long run speed advantage on tires.
Only a matter of time we see a Matt proposing to Tommy in a intro.

Tommy on sky sports now, quality
Is Tommy becoming a Charles fan? Masterclass from Charles would be phenomenal. I'd love to see Carlos on the podium as well just to have some redemption for the drain cover incident and penalty from last year. Also to just ensure that Ferrari get the WCC
I'm going to watch the qualifying in person! Super excited about how this will turn out
For Lando there are 2 options for the final races of the season. 1) he Will get away the pressure and make a very strong season final 2)he Will be "depressed" and make a poor final season
Biggest Good Surprise : Vegas Gorlok Dome will claim Stroll as a sacrifice
Biggest Flop : Daniel will miss Checo's head by a few millimeters
Pole Position : Spice girl 42765 will turn up with a rolling pin and chase the Hornedog around Vegas so fast that he'll clock in P1
P3 : The bottle Lando slips on
P2 : Oscar or Osama Bin Russell
P1 : Max with 3 minutes of penalties from the FIA
Crazy Prediction : The Americans won't be cringe
Crazy to think that Norris crashed in this race last year
I’m sure Lando will improve, but you can’t win an WDC without using your elbows. Cause other drivers will…..
Lando’s a good driver. But he’s just not on the same level as George & Charles.
@@gameofender4463 Good driver, but not the best racer.
Crazy prediction (3part)
- Williams double top 5 finish
- Double RBR DNF
- Ferrari overtakes McLaren in WCC
I don’t think we can call this year a championship battle for Norris 😂 like not even in the slightest.
Matt not putting Max in his top 3 after that performance in Brazil is wild
Because the rb isn't Good, it was Max and his talent in wet that made him win in Brazil, all in all Rb is just shie T compared to McLaren and Ferrari
@ enjoy the Dutch national anthem on Sunday mate
@@joshharding9029 yea I will mate, but I was just saying the truth, no problem if you wanna stuck on your opinion, Hamilton pfp doesn't make me a max hater you du mb fk
@@avxg26 what the fuck are you going on about 🤣🤣
@@avxg26so why both Matt and Tommy says Lando and Charles will be good surprised in Vegas yet Ferrari and Mclaren both will be Rocketships in this race LOL
Yeah the Intro is why im here. In a few episodes one of them is on the moon doing cartwheels while painted blue
Prediction:Colapinto will finish in P6 or P5, and Leclerc will be a race winner.
The Brazilian Grand Prix was Lando's Miami 2023. He'll not be troubling the top step of the podium again.
What exactly does a biggest good surprise from Lando entail? Not bottling into T1?
12:59 Now that is a CRAZZYY prediction
Glad I stayed up for this.
My predictions for top 3
1. Charles Leclerc
2. Oscar piastri
3. Carlos Sainz
Other predictions
One of the Haas will finish in points,
Lewis Hamilton will be in top 8, Ferrari will have both the cars in top 5, Franco colapinto will score points.
Crazy prediction: Gasly or Lawson in Q3
Max not winning the championship this weekend would have 1000% qualified as a crazy prediction. If he finishes higher than P7 he wins it.
Pretty sure that ain’t right. He can lose two points compared to Lando this weekend.
i feel like haas will cook here
the circuit characteristics seem to suit their package this year
these intros are killing me 😆
Leclerc nog winning Vegas would indeed be a big surprise. I expect ferrari to be very strong here
Ngl but a driver getting damage is not a crazy prediction, I’d say it’s a better crazy prediction if max didnt finish
Without the use of the Baku rear wing, McLaren would not have had a chance to win.
If that happen, either Leclerc or Checo would’ve gotten the win(not counting the crash at the end)
Great show as always! Matt jinxing Lando...just kidding, but seriously. Not sure we will get a Zhou "Hail Mary" in any form for the rest of this season, yet you never know. Cheers Gents.
Cold track temp a mercs win maybe?
All of the greats were able to compete and win WDC at first chance. Some champions that’s the only shot you’ll get. Rookie Hamilton was able to get within 1 point of wdc in his rookie season. Max first chance was against a combination of Mercedes/Lewis maybe greatest to ever do it and was able to get it done. Between Ferarri, Mercedes, Piastri and Max, Lando will have his hands full next season and this year might’ve been his best shot.
Here we gooooo
My one crazy prediction is this:
Max Verstappen 'games the system' so hard this weekend that he puts Lando in the wall.
And due to the circumstances of championship permutations because of this, he gets disqualified from the race - *at least.*
Probability of this happening? Probably next to none.
But if this were to happen, the whole Formula 1 side of the Internet will be an Armageddon flame!
My crazy prediction is that Lando will qualify second and take the lead either turn 1 or lap 1 🙏
I got Piastri winning the race. He's had too many stinkers recently I think he will finally bounce back
Zhou Guanyu...
Jokes on you...
I hate how much it rhymes.
What if Hulkenberg got a podium? I want nothing more than to see the dude up there. Could you imagine the smile on that guy's face? It'd probably be the most wholesome thing we've seen in a long time.
The only thing La do is smashing is a wall in one of those turns 😂😂
(12:44) Oh Tommy, I hate you. If this comes true, I will not be happy!
Crazy prediction: Colapinto puts on a show, gets complimented by Christian Horner and/or Helmut Marko
These guys need to do their research smh. Ferrari are going to struggle because of how cold it is
So why didn't struggle last year in Vegas and it was more cold than this year ĺol
I feel like Lando will have a good race now that the pressure of a championship battle is off and he can drive freely. Might even lead into T1
I HATE the long break/triple-header format when the break is on, I LOVE the long break/triple-header format during the triple-headers.
I agree with Matt, I think Lando can really do great here and I agree at least 1 Ferrari comes 2nd. I am hoping Max can finish high, but I don’t think the car has it to keep the red and papaya behind.
Lando is in F1 for half a decade now. When will this getting better you are talking about happen?
I'll be real, it's hard to get invested in a championship battle when there are three week gaps between events. That having been said, I'm still excited to see them return to the Las Vegas Dead Pig.
McLaren race pace will be surprisingly slower on long runs in the past. Making Red Bulls comments more interesting.
I want to see if they continue to have the long run speed advantage on tires.
My predictions:
Osc - p1
Charles - p2
Max- p3
Even if this isn’t the order i think these 3 will be on the podium 🤞🏼
From the palm, to in front of your face.
What a level up😅
Max should pull a Sphere ad for the end of the race that says “simply lovely”
Lando Norris can only be the big surprise if he wins the sprint, race, and does not lose P1 in the first lap.
My guy has the fastest car by a mile.
There is no sprint in Vegas. Qatar.
By a mile? Let’s not talk nonsense.
also if lando doesnt rely on team orders to get past piastri
@@kylereed3357 have you not seen singapore? that was when they did everything right
@@irgiefarrashave you not seen Bahrain where Max won by 50s.
"Every car that starts also finishes the race."
Is pulling a Stroll a loophole ? xD
Crazy prediction:
Sergio Perez doesnt finish last out of the RUNNING Formula A cars (Red Bull, Mclaren, Ferrari, Mercedes)
I think George Russell will win the Las Vegas Grand Prix or a Podium.
