all of the british media is blowing the Max-Lando fiasco out of proportion, infact just a while back at the FIA drivers press conference Lando very clearly said that Max should not apologise to him and he did not expect him to apologise as well. He also mentioned that what he said after the race was something he said at the heat of the moment and once thngs cooled down he realized he did not mean it hence he did not want Max to apologise and that he and Max spoke after the race. He also said he enjoyed racing with Max at Austria.. So all of the british media can go watch the FIA drivers press conference and sulk.
Yet he already made sure all press heard his Max hate and ran that narrative. And then Stella did it on top refering to 2021… And hear Lando’s full radio of the race… Lando was full of anger and hate towards Max. Threatening to break the friendship and stuff. The radio messages yelling that Max should get penalties for moving under braking as well… Only now, 1 week on, he PLAYS THE NICE GUY cos they race at SILVERSTONE…… The damage in the press, on ALL SOCIAL MEDIA, incl d@aththr@ats, the hate fueling has been done…. You will hear the crowd boo Max even louder this weekend COS OF LANDO’s ATTITUDE AND STELLA’s….. This nice guy act is only to play nice to British crowd and to influence the stewards for this weekend…
@@Redlingstein Look I'm a Max fan first but I do love Lando as well but after that race he dropped a few places on my like meter for being a crybaby but at the same time emotions run high after something like that and you tend to say things without thinking them through. I have said things I wish I wouldn't have in crazy situations and said things I truly do not mean so I can give Lando a pass on that one. Lando hasn't been in that situation in a very long time and it showed he still has a lot to learn.
It was such a small racing incident. Obviously it ruined both their races but neither of them were doing anything particularly bad. It just didn't work out for them.
@@Redlingstein truth be told even if the max lando incident did not take place the british fans always boo Max and i just love it when max comes to the UK and conquers. Max came, Max saw and Max conquered. Max doesnt care for the booing. he knows he has a job to do and gets on with it.
@@drifter402 The actual racing contact was very minor and unlucky for the both of them. However, some of the moves a few laps earlier were beyond the pale. Reactive defensive moves, overtaking while off the track, etc.
Max is a ruthless competitor like Senna, Schumacher and Alonso in their day. Good for him! BTW, the popularity and success of F1 depends on hard racing and fierce rivalries.
True, but Eddie literally also said that Max had right away and that should’ve been respected, so which is it? They are racing, or the guy in front has right of way, meaning, not much racing. Can’t be both.
The idea that Max is a track bully and overtly aggressive is just plain stupid. You can't name a single F1 champion that hasn't done those exact same defensive moves. Lewis, Senna, Lauda, Prost, Schumacher, Vettel, Alonso, Rosberg, Fangio, Brabham. All of them race just as hard as Max. But the moment Max does it it's evil?
Senna's quote was literally used by Hamilton after crashing iirc... When Senna used it to justify purposefully crashing into Prost to win. Drivers like Shumacher were also dirty like Senna. Hell, fighting elbows out is generally what everyone worships and goes "waah cars too wide, they can't fight like this anymore" - but the second anyone does it, the crying and penalties begin. Y'know how commentary calls DR "the last of the late brakers" and shows clips of him dive bombing in highlights while showing corners? Highlights of the guy locking his tyres while screaming up the inside, forcing BOTH CARS off the track, sometimes with contact, and then taking the lead? Wild to me. Imagine if Max, Piastri, George, etc. pulled that bs? It would be calamity.
The British writers and commentators are making WAY too big a deal of an incident that would be barely even remembered in a typical Indycar race, much less the subject of 100+ hours of discussion and countless articles and videos. Get a grip Brits! 🇺🇸
Lando during the FIA Press Conference: Max has nothing to apologise for, I made statements right after the race and in the week I actually don't believe in, we talked, we are ready to race against each other again"
I totally get sky sports being biased towards English drivers. But F1TV really needs to expand their talent pool. They have DC and that one Canadian Indycar driver. Literally everyone else is English.
I am from Holland and F1TV is available here but not in the UK. When I called to F1 to complain about the all English crew the first said that they have a lot of fans in the UK. When Instated that F1Pro is not available in the UK on the internet she agreed and would pass the message. So far not much changed. The English journalist think that they play the best football and that Formula 1 is English. Chauvinism is the word here. It’s a pity.
@@Redlingstein I held Palmer pretty high before. But that day he showed his true colour. No Brit can be that good. They simply look for all excuses. Despite it being dominated with British drivers there are plenty of other drivers that win. His attack on Max was just the biggest BS i have ever seen and imo he should not be on TV. The sport is for the world, not only for the UK! The way most of the English media reacts is just unheard of. Like that sad Damon Hill. Back in the days when Schumacher did that thing and won the WC is was gutted for him. Now i say karma! He is nothing then a soar loser!
Are you so cognitively stunted that you are unable to filter-out any supposed 'bias' of a presenter & just watch & enjoy the sport for what it is...? Raymond Baxter was biased, Murray Walker was biased, Jackie Stewart in his commentary days was biased (he disliked Senna & rightly spoke out about him...) most definitely James Hunt was biased...it didn't detract frim the sport whatsoever. This crybaby nonsense for wanting seemingly unbiased presenters is so ridiculous...
Well said gentlemen. This will teach everyone to take a moment and look at things before they make comments and assumptions. These 2 know what racing was and still is and are amazing to listen to.
Senna is idolised for taking people out deliberately, yet verstappen is just ultra aggressive but the agenda against him is incredible. Has he taken anyone out in a premeditated way? Don't get the hate, he actually defends his position with his life. As if its his first win. Amazing to see the hunger is still there. This is his dna
Yes Hamilton all of 21 Ocon for unlapping himself The list goes on? He’s had a hand full of Stella races for me that’s it? That rb car as been decades above every one
@@jerome8670 😂😂😂 this ground effect red bull has nowhere near the delta advantage the mercs did in the hybrid era Good thing you're not the judge, max is considered one of the best by experts for a reason
Senna and Schumacher where lucky social media wasn't on the level it is now. They also would have goten massieve hate online because there not from England.
@@Us155fthat’s not factual! RB have been turning down for two seasons they’ve shown their hand a few times and it’s been over a second a lap easy? Their drs legality phase when they was ultra more efficient with it was a joke I don’t get how no one sees it look at the stats the last two seasons … you just think that’s all on maxs shoulders? When your cars that much quicker he never took chances at all and that’s why it’s alllll coming back again the same old Mardy max . Just keep watching Lewis always had dominant car for sure but Ferrari was there and always his team mate and even some tracks red bull was quicker!
1000% from Eddie... there was no penalty from Max, it was 100% a racing incident of two leaders fighting for a GP! Max is a driver of a different cloth, cut from the same as Lewis and Alonso.. Like Michael, Senna, Mansell.. These guys will run you ragged... When Max won his first WDC, he had to fight one of the juggernauts of the sport to the final breath for it, Lando got a small taste of it Sunday...
You have 81 starts in iracing sports cars and a single win, 26 top 5s. Please continue to tell us how much you know about racing. You've never even raced a formula car in the sim.
Look what Max did to Sainz 2023 when Sainz went wide same turn last year! Max went wide off track to not make contact and then undercut Sainz and made the pass and did not cry about what Sainz did BUT all these rules and crying is getting annoying! Max defended Lando made the mistake by making contact refusing to move left and make another move
I wish Eddiie would just tell Martin Brundle to shut up!!! McLaren were blaming Max when Lando dive bombed him twice during the race, this is how ridiculous & toxic F1 has become. Do they really think the driver behind controls the racing line?? Martin Brundle is acting like he's Lando's PR guy not sky commentator, perhaps too much travel & age has got to him. Ted Kravitz is an Ass!! And Will Buxton, "Lewis is a clean racer". Three people none with a single F1 race win is now trying to teach Max how to race!!!
I expected nothing else from those three. When Max or Fernando defend, they are dangerous, cunning, aggressive, bullies, etc. When it's Lewis, Lando or George, it's hard but fair, daring, brilliant or bold. The bias is extreme with those guys and they use the fact that they are native speakers of English to also bias the narrative of other channels. Palmer is usually more reasonable, but he also used quite a biased rhetoric in his analyses of the incidents. I was dissappointed by that. Good to hear that DC, EJ and Peter Windsor are more reasonable.
100% and it's driven in part by the headline commentators being British. I would pay anything to watch another stream in OZ if available without the British bias, but no cigar
You guys just sitting here proving why you’re absolute legends. Thanks for having the balls to give an honest take and prioritize fierce racing over petty, semantic arguments about the rules
@@taykitrleevitt4314 It doesn't take talent to crash out another driver. Vercrappen has the best car, the fastest pit stop crew (in 99% of the races), most reliable car, well funded to the point of cheating spending limits rules, and yet when being passed he resorts to crashing out other drivers (Lando is one of many Vercrappen has taken out).
I agree with EJ, that move by Max slightly to the left hand side is a normal move when you’re approaching the corner to keep your carstable and you’re leading the race you have every right to take the racing lane. No penalty should be given to anyone it’s a pure racing incident.
100% agree with you Eddie! I was on my own defending true racing. Max might have had elbows out but he was first into the corner. Left room on the outside and Lando had the chance to ease off. Honestly, if the stewards were quicker with the lando peno, it could have been avoided. Shumi, Hamilton, Prost, Senna- no way would that have conceded that corner. Lando is too nice. He needs to develop sharp elbows. HOWEVER both drivers were so diplomatic and spoke brilliantly directly after and Lando genuinely seems like a lovely lad. He just needs to take a leaf from max and develop a mean streak.
Lando was full of hate in the interview after the race in Austria! He was making a big deal of it. And Andrea Stella did some on top…. Lando was not calm or diplomatic. Max WAS.
Now apply this common sense to Abu Dhabi 2021 and watch your inbox explode with righteous angry LH fans going apeshit over dots and commas in the regulations 🙂
@@reddwarf666 The one unfortunate part about AD was that it involved safety procedures, and F1 should rightfully be very careful with those. But indeed, the spirit of racing is very important, and I really wonder what kind of racing we'll see in 2026 if we combine no DRS and anti-battle stewardship
EJ forgets to say what he thought about the pass Lando made on the inside and Max just drove round the outside and didn't give the place back (unlike how Lando did)
F1 a sport that penalises drivers for racing, Max did nothing wrong ,you'd thing that he just tried to drive Lando into the pitwall or T boned straight into him at the first turn Senna like.
@@degeautd40 People only focus on that one incident at Suzuka when Prost turned in on Senna to denigrate Prost, but watch that entire season and Prost had to take avoiding action multiple times to avoid an accident with Senna that season.
Making contact in open wheel racing isn't "racing". Of course Max isn't dumb enough to try something as moronic as "drive Lando into the pitwall". He knows how to play the stewards and bend the rules not outright violate them like a clown.
There's a difference between fair and unfair racing though. There's no talent in moving your infront of your competitors to stop passes every which way.
I thought Lando’s dive on lap 63 was a legit overtake, kept it within track limits and ahead at the apex, and Max took to the run off and kept the position. That was worth a time penalty. The incident itself that resulted in the punctures was just hard racing
Journalists, fans and drivers complain over the lack of racing for years. Once the racing finally gets going, they all complain about the way the racing is done. Journalists, fans and drivers all complained for years about the rules being too strict for racing. Once the racing finally gets going - they complain about the enforcement of the rules not being strict enough.😅
I believe Raikonen had the fairest racing almost all the time, even when fighting for the championship. Drivers echo this opinion throughout the paddock.
I love the common sense here. It is racing. Max by the way getting more support by the day. Drivers speak out etc. Only Damon Hell wants Max get more penalties hahaha
If you watch from both on board cameras, Max's tire gets puncture first by Lando making contact with him. Then I honestly think Max loses the car because his left rear was non-existent.
I used to play F1 2002 on the GameCube, experienced the grass myself at places like the glen. All the comments about how drivers were going past track limits, for YEARS, had me saying "ADD GRASS!!" Glad they finally did.
Some people still feel robbed because Max in Abu Dhabi 2021 got very lucky when Latiffi in a Williams crashed and caused a safety car. Yes Hamilton was almost half a minute in front of Max but also because they didn't pit. Thus Max got behind him on fresher tires. Normally you let all the lapped cars unlap themselves but that would cause an safety car finish. Let me remind people that earlier that year in Belgium due to heavy rain the race was finished after the safety car where Max got half points. In the following drivers meeting all teams and that includes Mercedes asked Masi to do whatever possible to not have races finish, while there was a safety car present. You can think what you want what Masi decided (only to unlap cars between Lewis and Max and have the safety car immidiatly go away. But to blame/dislike Max for that is just unfair.
Max will forever be blamed for this as if he was the president of the FIA in 2021... If people want to see unfair driving they need to watch the 2016 Abu Dhabi race...
I love you guys, F1 Liberty Media should pay you lots of dough, you are the best knowledgeable promoter of F One, Full stop and congrats! PS: Mr. Newey, I am a sailor like you and >r. Jordan: discover and enjoy but be always careful.
I don't think this was a rim problem. In both cases, the carcas of the tyre actually stayed on the rim, unlike in many other incidents we have seen recently.
Anyone who didn't see it coming understands nothing about racing and about max. Taking the hypocritical english side on this one is just being ignorant. In the end both were equally at fault. And to be honest #LandoNorris showed his inexperience as he could have kept pressuring #MaxVerstappen into a mistake instead of being all banzai, since being all banzai on max gets you what lando got. Now max extended his lead further by 12 points to 81 points over lando, meaning that lando lost and max won. In hindsight, the dotardic stewards should have timely informed the teams that Lando had a 5 second penalty. That would have made both @LandoNorris and @MaxVerstappen relax a bit since Lando would've known that 1st place was out of reach and max would've known that 1st place was his. Thus, no unnecessary clashes.
Interestingly enough Lando said that he reacted very emotionally and said things he should not have said. He aslo said it was a very very minor incident and very unfortunately. Of cours ethe Brits blew it all out of proportion as did Andrea Stella. We all remember waht Hammy did to Max in Silverstone in 2021 where he almost killed Max ( he would have been dead if no Halo) and he won and was loudly celebrating while Max was in the hospital. In that case 10 seconds was grossly unfair, he should have been disqualified
Fanboy ... Hamilton was on the inside and had the corner, Vercrappen does what he always does, if I can't win I will take out the competition ... Monza when he drove on top of Hamilton? How you forget all the BS drama Vercrappen has created ... a truly talented driver wouldn't be generating this kinda of drama. Max turned into Lando, not once, but twice ... it was I'm going to take you out rather than lose ... in the end Vercrappen lost.
This is absolute lies, I remembered vividly how the incident was overblown and everybody calling Lewiz murderer even though it was obvious. The nonsense talk of 50G, what a joke.
@@robainscough Thats why Hammy was found guilty? I am no fanboy of anyone but you clearly are. Like all the brits and 99% of british media you have a bias against all non british drivers. Even Lando agreed that it was a racing incident and way overblown
@@exeuropean Lando back pedaled from his first comments about the incident which were accurate ...why do you think that is ... nothing changed. Doesn't really matter Vercrappen got a penalty albeit a meaningless penalty. This has nothing to do with British drivers, I'm a US citizen. It has everything to do with talent and racing of which Vercrappen clearly demonstrated he doesn't have. If everyone drove like Vercrappen there would be no race, just a demolition derby ... Vercrappen is a boy in a sandbox that want's it all to himself because he thinks he's the best. When it turns out he's not the best, he has hissy fit and goes on a crash rampage ... that's a talents turd.
We've had remarkably few 'Pirelli Punctures' this year due to racing incidents, for which I'm grateful. A few years ago there were several during each race it seemed. Maybe the sidewalls got beefed up along the way, but carbon fiber cuts like a knife and that hasn't changed.
@@degeautd40yeah before being team mate to michael, he thought he could be a world champion. Michael CRUSHED him. Quali 16-1. Races were 14-3 i believe. (Schu had 3 dnfs)
Great pod but can we have timestamps please? I can't afford tickets to Silverstone because I am not a millionaire so don't care about Kings of Leon or Texas performing there.
It makes for super boring racing when the driver in front is just allowed to weave all over the track to defend making it literally impossible to pass.
Oh do I miss seeing you around the track mr Jordan. I think you guys nailed with the Max situation.. Finally 2 men who know what they are talking about and at least being fair. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you guys. I so hope F1 doesn't turn into a clinical sport where all these expensive cars with in them very expensive drivers, drive around in a big line all following each other delivering one boring race after the other... The races Max has been involved in where there was a fierce battle all had a 10 as far as entertainment value. I think it is exactly what the sport needs. He will drive at the Max every lap in every single race he is part of. That is what sets him apart from probably anyone on the grid at the moment. There is a reason why we regard Senna, Schumacher as legends.. They gave everything they had every single race, every single minute they were driving. I think Max is the same... If you want to pass max on track better make sure you have at least some room left or buffer because he will defend his position. As he should. I am so disguisted by most of the commentators and a lot of the english press after last weeks race dragging max' legacy through the mud as if he is the worst things that ever happened to the sport. Au contraire.. It is great to hear a breath of fresh air again from two amazing guys. Not because they agree with me.. But because they are right.
The rules on moving under braking aren't clear at all. You can't move "erratically". So it's again at the discretion of the stewards. One will rule different than another.
Ha David!. So many memories from my childhood watching F1 have you as protagonist. So fucking amazing that you became in this awesome communicator that you are, a pleasure to listen. Cheers from Argentina.
Max had to limp back with 3 wheels for half a lap,10 seconds penalty and pit for new tyres and still beats checo by 10 seconds 😂 but its the car apparently 😅
Perhaps they should fit railway tracks to the circuits and have the stewards move the points to allow overtaking? This would stop all the trouble with these unruly racing drivers.
Weaving around blocking was banned a long long long time ago from just about all racing, not just F1. Vercrappen doesn't seem to understand that rather basic rule and instead of using talent to win, he resorts to crashing. Vercrappen should be banned ... his 10 second penalty was meaningless.
When you look at Ayrton Senna's races, he was an animal on track as well, full of tricks. A number of times he went too far too. You don't become world champion by being a nice gentleman on track.
I hope Lando takes Vercrappen out every race ... best way to ensure we have a different championship winner rather than RB who have the best car and a baby for driver.
@@robainscough toxic fans like you are the reason for online hate. You know nothing about F1. Go watch Monaco every year so you can see formations lap. You will not be missed go cry in a corner.
@@robainscough WTF?! First off RB do not have the best car you must not watch races and you're sitting here advocating crashing into Max on purpose!? You're a real sicko and calling Max a baby when the crying was coming from the other car lol another moronic comment from a Max RB hater which normally means you're a Merc/LH fan hmmmmmm.
Verstappen is just way better than anyone else on the grid, Lando is very quick, but he is lacking experience and racecraft, still too much a kid inside to control the emotions. He will definitely improve throughout this year and next year there will definitely be a close battle.
Max slightly squeezed Lando but left a generous cars width. Lando then proceeded to turn into Max not once but twice. I don't understand how this isn't completely obvious. This was after two prior dive bombs.
David Coulthard "You've got to follow the rules." Under the rules, Lando had every right to expect a car width to be left, as there was a car width when Max began braking, so he went into that gap. Max didn't follow the rules. He moved left under braking, leaving less than a car width, causing contact, so he got a penalty. End of story.
Senna, Schumacher, Prost. This has been what happens on the pointy end for decades. Welcome to the front row Lando who is the 2nd best driver at McLaren. Watch his eyes and body language, he knows he is. Lewis has been done since Mercedes had to stop outspending the field, exposing his averageness, which is still good for 3 championships. Another great show boys!
Fun fact: I went to High School with Kings of Leon for one year in the late 90s. They moved to my city for one year before moving again. They were just normal kids then.
The only problem I have with everyone jumping on max is that yeah by the letter of the law he moved twice and should be penalized, fair enough. However I see all the drivers doing that exact same thing. Defending and then widening the corner almost like a dance with the driver on the outside. Look at silverstone 21 before the contact. Lewis goes to the inside and then what? Both simultaneously open the corner back up together. I could give other examples of other drivers as well so I just don’t see how what he did was different other than lando didn’t dance with him.
You had to go back 3 years to find an example to compare to max. There’s your problem. And Lewis got a penalty for silverstone so that example doesn’t even make sense 😂
Blocking was banned from racing decades ago, this isn't "new" ... and Vercrappen moved into and caused a collision hence the penalty. A driver with real talent and not the "Best car" wouldn't have resorted to such immature driving.
I said that was merely one example and Hamilton got a penalty for pushing max wide at the apex not moving to widen the corner. Also who exactly drove into who? Landos front wheel hit maxs rear. Go watch the drivers press conference today and see how many of them said yeah that wasn’t bad at all compared to others I’ve seen that go unpunished but sure go on
Ah. A refreshing new channel. Looking forward to the future of F1 with you guys. We can now hopefully go racing and stop all the hype and negativity. Right or wrong as Masi said” It’s called racing This Max is a giant and David ( Norris)is after him. This is racing.
Lando still needs to mature in fighting for the lead. And after the incident just get on with it and not moan and being childish about it. Max is like Senna and Schumi, rough and agressive that's how you win.
Agreed. Lando still slips into sim racer mode in the real car. The stuff he was trying is very sim lobby like. Unfortunately, think Lando is gonna be a DC, Riccardo, Bottas..he'll win alot of races,lots of podiums, but the WDC will be just out of reach
@@SaabJitsu I think Lando has got the natural talent but not (yet) the like "extra" that you need to be at the very top. But also if McLaren got the best car next year, he might as well be WC so... Although if Oscar gains more experience, like saving his tyres and stuff, he can be up there. We see already in quali he is on Lando his level just on pure speed.
@@justme7446Agreed, that last 1% that can't be taught. You either have it or you don't like a musician or actor. Make no mistake, Lando is VERY good just not sure if he has that 1%. His body language and eyes are very telling in the post race interviews, especially Monaco last year when Oscar won the sprint, he knew he had an inner team battle coming his way the next few years and the methodical way Oscar approaches driving it may be sooner than later.
Love both of your takes on the "incident." Respect to Lando. Neither he nor Max has much experience racing for the lead in equal machinery. They both need to learn the right risk-reward balance and they will.
Lando could have avoided colliding with Max’s car by leaving the track, exactly the same as Max did the previous lap. But Lando had the track limits penalty influencing his car placement and chose to make contact with Max. Unfortunate.
I liked the comment of Peter Windsor ..... he looked at all the details and from his ( and mine ! ) Norris needs to say sorry of his poor and uncontrolled driving
Peter was spot on. Max is the definition of greatness. He is superb, a king, a Sungod. Flawless in all his moves with perfect positioning. Gentle for his tires but ruthless for the competition. No one can touch him. All should bow deep for his excellence. 😗
Britt’s make up the vast majority of the F1 employees and track stewards. The bias is embarrassing for the sport. Glad to hear these two Britt’s can be objective. Love the Britt’s but the F1 media has vilified Max unnecessarily because he’s dominating the British sport. It’s not a British sport any longer it’s a global sport with a global audience. It’s not golf! It’s open wheel racing. Every driver defends aggressively. Every driver will shoot a gap if give. The fact that a track steward is is British and a GP driver leveled the penalty smacks of bias.
In short, what DC and EJ is saying that F1 has gone soft. Max can race in the era of Hunt, Senna or Schumi and can go toe to toe with them and not cry, Lando and Russel against those guys will cry and will need counseling.

Lewis, Senna, Lauda, Prost, Schumacher, Vettel, Alonso, Rosberg, Fangio, Brabham. All of them race just as hard as Max. But the moment Max does it it's evil?
Look at video of Alan Jones blocking people....ha ha. "Try and pass me you M'fer"

Goes well with the crazy world we live in now. If you even look at someone they could be offended 😂
Senna's quote was literally used by Hamilton after crashing iirc... When Senna used it to justify purposefully crashing into Prost to win.
Drivers like Shumacher were also dirty like Senna. Hell, fighting elbows out is generally what everyone worships and goes "waah cars too wide, they can't fight like this anymore" - but the second anyone does it, the crying and penalties begin.
Y'know how commentary calls DR "the last of the late brakers" and shows clips of him dive bombing in highlights while showing corners?
Highlights of the guy locking his tyres while screaming up the inside, forcing BOTH CARS off the track, sometimes with contact, and then taking the lead?
Wild to me.
Imagine if Max, Piastri, George, etc. pulled that bs? It would be calamity.
Max was giving Lando a lesson in how to be a World champion. For free.

The British writers and commentators are making WAY too big a deal of an incident that would be barely even remembered in a typical Indycar race, much less the subject of 100+ hours of discussion and countless articles and videos. Get a grip Brits! 🇺🇸
When LH was crowding others it was never Hamilton fault. Hell, he still does it but now it's out of frustration.
Lando during the FIA Press Conference: Max has nothing to apologise for, I made statements right after the race and in the week I actually don't believe in, we talked, we are ready to race against each other again"
brit bias is a real and ugly problem. honestly
Indycar is just a national spec series.
It’s not really Brits, more English. But you are asking them to break their brainwashing which is impossible 😂

"why you looking at me like that?" - 😂 I'm dead
I totally get sky sports being biased towards English drivers. But F1TV really needs to expand their talent pool. They have DC and that one Canadian Indycar driver. Literally everyone else is English.
Totally agree. And Palmer was outrageous bias in Austria on the livestream, unacceptable. He is the INTERNATIONAL FEED!
I am from Holland and F1TV is available here but not in the UK. When I called to F1 to complain about the all English crew the first said that they have a lot of fans in the UK. When Instated that F1Pro is not available in the UK on the internet she agreed and would pass the message.
So far not much changed. The English journalist think that they play the best football and that Formula 1 is English. Chauvinism is the word here. It’s a pity.
@@Redlingstein I held Palmer pretty high before. But that day he showed his true colour. No Brit can be that good. They simply look for all excuses. Despite it being dominated with British drivers there are plenty of other drivers that win. His attack on Max was just the biggest BS i have ever seen and imo he should not be on TV.
The sport is for the world, not only for the UK! The way most of the English media reacts is just unheard of. Like that sad Damon Hill. Back in the days when Schumacher did that thing and won the WC is was gutted for him. Now i say karma! He is nothing then a soar loser!
Preach !! I agree 100%
Are you so cognitively stunted that you are unable to filter-out any supposed 'bias' of a presenter & just watch & enjoy the sport for what it is...?
Raymond Baxter was biased, Murray Walker was biased, Jackie Stewart in his commentary days was biased (he disliked Senna & rightly spoke out about him...) most definitely James Hunt was biased...it didn't detract frim the sport whatsoever.
This crybaby nonsense for wanting seemingly unbiased presenters is so ridiculous...
Well said gentlemen. This will teach everyone to take a moment and look at things before they make comments and assumptions.

I wish Eddiie would just tell Martin Brundle to shut up!!! McLaren were blaming Max when Lando dive bombed him twice during the race, this is how ridiculous & toxic F1 has become. Do they really think the driver behind controls the racing line?? Martin Brundle is acting like he's Lando's PR guy not sky commentator, perhaps too much travel & age has got to him.

I expected nothing else from those three. When Max or Fernando defend, they are dangerous, cunning, aggressive, bullies, etc. When it's Lewis, Lando or George, it's hard but fair, daring, brilliant or bold. The bias is extreme with those guys and they use the fact that they are native speakers of English to also bias the narrative of other channels.

Max is a racing driver.
I don't know man, think he is a elephant driver. Debatable.
If everyone followed his example, there wouldn't be many finishers... just look at how one or two championships finished between Senna and Prost.
That lost the race? Yeah ok ... that makes ZERO sense.
1+1 =2
@@taykitrleevitt4314 It doesn't take talent to crash out another driver. Vercrappen has the best car, the fastest pit stop crew (in 99% of the races), most reliable car, well funded to the point of cheating spending limits rules, and yet when being passed he resorts to crashing out other drivers (Lando is one of many Vercrappen has taken out).
I agree with EJ, that move by Max slightly to the left hand side is a normal move when you’re approaching the corner to keep your carstable and you’re leading the race you have every right to take the racing lane. No penalty should be given to anyone it’s a pure racing incident.
100% agree with you Eddie! I was on my own defending true racing. Max might have had elbows out but he was first into the corner. Left room on the outside and Lando had the chance to ease off.
Honestly, if the stewards were quicker with the lando peno, it could have been avoided.
Shumi, Hamilton, Prost, Senna- no way would that have conceded that corner.
Lando is too nice. He needs to develop sharp elbows.
HOWEVER both drivers were so diplomatic and spoke brilliantly directly after and Lando genuinely seems like a lovely lad. He just needs to take a leaf from max and develop a mean streak.
Lando was full of hate in the interview after the race in Austria! He was making a big deal of it. And Andrea Stella did some on top….
Lando was not calm or diplomatic. Max WAS.
Lando is no lovely guy. You should hear his full race radio from the race AND listen to all his interviews after the race…..
Exactly yet another reason the stewards need to be on top of everything and if it's a penalty give it right then and there.
A football referee can kill a game by strictly whistle by the rules instead in the spirit of the game!
Stewards can do the same with a F1 race!
Great comparison and good point also 🔥
Now apply this common sense to Abu Dhabi 2021 and watch your inbox explode with righteous angry LH fans going apeshit over dots and commas in the regulations 🙂
@@reddwarf666 The one unfortunate part about AD was that it involved safety procedures, and F1 should rightfully be very careful with those. But indeed, the spirit of racing is very important, and I really wonder what kind of racing we'll see in 2026 if we combine no DRS and anti-battle stewardship
EJ forgets to say what he thought about the pass Lando made on the inside and Max just drove round the outside and didn't give the place back (unlike how Lando did)
Eddie Jordan 💯💯💯
F1 a sport that penalises drivers for racing, Max did nothing wrong ,you'd thing that he just tried to drive Lando into the pitwall or T boned straight into him at the first turn Senna like.
Or prost like turning in on him in 89
Agreed but a few incidents where others did get penalised for same actions as Max
@@degeautd40 People only focus on that one incident at Suzuka when Prost turned in on Senna to denigrate Prost, but watch that entire season and Prost had to take avoiding action multiple times to avoid an accident with Senna that season.
Making contact in open wheel racing isn't "racing".
Of course Max isn't dumb enough to try something as moronic as "drive Lando into the pitwall". He knows how to play the stewards and bend the rules not outright violate them like a clown.
There's a difference between fair and unfair racing though. There's no talent in moving your infront of your competitors to stop passes every which way.
You both are, with Peter Windsor, by far the best people to be informed by about F1
I thought Lando’s dive on lap 63 was a legit overtake, kept it within track limits and ahead at the apex, and Max took to the run off and kept the position. That was worth a time penalty.
The incident itself that resulted in the punctures was just hard racing
The other drivers, Lando included, need to just start moving under breaking considering the precedent that its no longer against the rules.
It is not literally in the rules any more since 2017, also because it it too ambiguous. Many drivers change direction somewhat during braking.
Journalists, fans and drivers complain over the lack of racing for years. Once the racing finally gets going, they all complain about the way the racing is done.
Journalists, fans and drivers all complained for years about the rules being too strict for racing. Once the racing finally gets going - they complain about the enforcement of the rules not being strict enough.😅
I believe Raikonen had the fairest racing almost all the time, even when fighting for the championship. Drivers echo this opinion throughout the paddock.
True, he was probably the only champion that was ultra agressive on attacking and defending but never beyond the limits of rules.

If you watch from both on board cameras, Max's tire gets puncture first by Lando making contact with him. Then I honestly think Max loses the car because his left rear was non-existent.
Because Max ran into Lando!
With endless asphalt run offs, we've forgotten what racing is. It was a racing incident. We keep re-adding gravel/grass, this discussion ends.
I used to play F1 2002 on the GameCube, experienced the grass myself at places like the glen.
All the comments about how drivers were going past track limits, for YEARS, had me saying "ADD GRASS!!"
Glad they finally did.
Some people still feel robbed because Max in Abu Dhabi 2021 got very lucky when Latiffi in a Williams crashed and caused a safety car. Yes Hamilton was almost half a minute in front of Max but also because they didn't pit. Thus Max got behind him on fresher tires. Normally you let all the lapped cars unlap themselves but that would cause an safety car finish. Let me remind people that earlier that year in Belgium due to heavy rain the race was finished after the safety car where Max got half points. In the following drivers meeting all teams and that includes Mercedes asked Masi to do whatever possible to not have races finish, while there was a safety car present. You can think what you want what Masi decided (only to unlap cars between Lewis and Max and have the safety car immidiatly go away. But to blame/dislike Max for that is just unfair.
Max will forever be blamed for this as if he was the president of the FIA in 2021... If people want to see unfair driving they need to watch the 2016 Abu Dhabi race...
Exactly they act as though Max planned it all himself it's insane these people.
I love you guys, F1 Liberty Media should pay you lots of dough, you are the best knowledgeable promoter of F One, Full stop and congrats! PS: Mr. Newey, I am a sailor like you and >r. Jordan: discover and enjoy but be always careful.
The stupid thing is a light touch of these horrible carbon fibre wheel centres causes them to shatter which is what happened here (Verstappen/Norris).
I was totally shocked to see 2 punctures out of that incidental contact.
I don't think this was a rim problem. In both cases, the carcas of the tyre actually stayed on the rim, unlike in many other incidents we have seen recently.
@@driesvanoosten4417 not sure, but i thought I’d seen a shot of Norris rear wheel showing the rim smashed up. I’m guessing they are pretty brittle.
Anyone who didn't see it coming understands nothing about racing and about max. Taking the hypocritical english side on this one is just being ignorant. In the end both were equally at fault. And to be honest #LandoNorris showed his inexperience as he could have kept pressuring #MaxVerstappen into a mistake instead of being all banzai, since being all banzai on max gets you what lando got. Now max extended his lead further by 12 points to 81 points over lando, meaning that lando lost and max won.
In hindsight, the dotardic stewards should have timely informed the teams that Lando had a 5 second penalty. That would have made both @LandoNorris and @MaxVerstappen relax a bit since Lando would've known that 1st place was out of reach and max would've known that 1st place was his. Thus, no unnecessary clashes.
What a episode. Love all this talk from legends like you, who can dive into the current theme and take it apart in detail.
Interestingly enough Lando said that he reacted very emotionally and said things he should not have said. He aslo said it was a very very minor incident and very unfortunately. Of cours ethe Brits blew it all out of proportion as did Andrea Stella. We all remember waht Hammy did to Max in Silverstone in 2021 where he almost killed Max ( he would have been dead if no Halo) and he won and was loudly celebrating while Max was in the hospital. In that case 10 seconds was grossly unfair, he should have been disqualified
Fanboy ... Hamilton was on the inside and had the corner, Vercrappen does what he always does, if I can't win I will take out the competition ... Monza when he drove on top of Hamilton? How you forget all the BS drama Vercrappen has created ... a truly talented driver wouldn't be generating this kinda of drama. Max turned into Lando, not once, but twice ... it was I'm going to take you out rather than lose ... in the end Vercrappen lost.
Funny part, that incident was much more severe. However it was much less debate from the pundits
This is absolute lies, I remembered vividly how the incident was overblown and everybody calling Lewiz murderer even though it was obvious. The nonsense talk of 50G, what a joke.
@@robainscough Thats why Hammy was found guilty? I am no fanboy of anyone but you clearly are. Like all the brits and 99% of british media you have a bias against all non british drivers. Even Lando agreed that it was a racing incident and way overblown
@@exeuropean Lando back pedaled from his first comments about the incident which were accurate ...why do you think that is ... nothing changed. Doesn't really matter Vercrappen got a penalty albeit a meaningless penalty. This has nothing to do with British drivers, I'm a US citizen. It has everything to do with talent and racing of which Vercrappen clearly demonstrated he doesn't have. If everyone drove like Vercrappen there would be no race, just a demolition derby ... Vercrappen is a boy in a sandbox that want's it all to himself because he thinks he's the best. When it turns out he's not the best, he has hissy fit and goes on a crash rampage ... that's a talents turd.
A thoroughly entertaining and enjoyable episode from start to finish.

That bit was bloody tedious
It makes for super boring racing when the driver in front is just allowed to weave all over the track to defend making it literally impossible to pass.
I love me some Eddie Jordan
Oh do I miss seeing you around the track mr Jordan. I think you guys nailed with the Max situation.. Finally 2 men who know what they are talking about and at least being fair. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you guys. I so hope F1 doesn't turn into a clinical sport where all these expensive cars with in them very expensive drivers, drive around in a big line all following each other delivering one boring race after the other... The races Max has been involved in where there was a fierce battle all had a 10 as far as entertainment value. I think it is exactly what the sport needs. He will drive at the Max every lap in every single race he is part of. That is what sets him apart from probably anyone on the grid at the moment.
There is a reason why we regard Senna, Schumacher as legends.. They gave everything they had every single race, every single minute they were driving. I think Max is the same...
If you want to pass max on track better make sure you have at least some room left or buffer because he will defend his position. As he should. I am so disguisted by most of the commentators and a lot of the english press after last weeks race dragging max' legacy through the mud as if he is the worst things that ever happened to the sport. Au contraire..
It is great to hear a breath of fresh air again from two amazing guys. Not because they agree with me.. But because they are right.
The rules on moving under braking aren't clear at all. You can't move "erratically". So it's again at the discretion of the stewards. One will rule different than another.
Alonso has now overtaken Schumacher as the dirtiest driver in Formula One history. I don't see Max in the top 5 dirtiest drivers of all time - Yet.
One of the racing Stuart's was Jhonny Herbert and he wanted actually a harder punishment for Max but they had only 10second aviable! 🤯
Ha David!. So many memories from my childhood watching F1 have you as protagonist. So fucking amazing that you became in this awesome communicator that you are, a pleasure to listen. Cheers from Argentina.
This is the unpopular opinion others are unwilling to say. Its a racing incident. Max was up front. The guy behind needs to do what it takes to pass.
Max had to limp back with 3 wheels for half a lap,10 seconds penalty and pit for new tyres and still beats checo by 10 seconds 😂 but its the car apparently 😅
Perhaps they should fit railway tracks to the circuits and have the stewards move the points to allow overtaking?
This would stop all the trouble with these unruly racing drivers.
Max's off-road overtaking that went unpunished has set up unfortunate repercussions.
Weaving around blocking was banned a long long long time ago from just about all racing, not just F1. Vercrappen doesn't seem to understand that rather basic rule and instead of using talent to win, he resorts to crashing. Vercrappen should be banned ... his 10 second penalty was meaningless.
OMG, I had no idea Gil de Ferran died 😥
RIP, Champion. Only 56, damn...
Even Lando has now said Max didn’t do anything wrong nor needed to apologise. The sensationalism is stupid
When you look at Ayrton Senna's races, he was an animal on track as well, full of tricks.

Verstappen is just way better than anyone else on the grid, Lando is very quick, but he is lacking experience and racecraft, still too much a kid inside to control the emotions.
He will definitely improve throughout this year and next year there will definitely be a close battle.
Max slightly squeezed Lando but left a generous cars width. Lando then proceeded to turn into Max not once but twice. I don't understand how this isn't completely obvious. This was after two prior dive bombs.
🇬🇧 Blindness
David Coulthard "You've got to follow the rules."
Under the rules, Lando had every right to expect a car width to be left, as there was a car width when Max began braking, so he went into that gap.
Max didn't follow the rules. He moved left under braking, leaving less than a car width, causing contact, so he got a penalty.
End of story.
Its racing! Unfortunately the pansies of today cant fight their corner! Rubbing is racing
'Rubbing is Racing'?... what is the prize for coming first?😂😂
I like first, watch after! Great job gents!
Senna, Schumacher, Prost. This has been what happens on the pointy end for decades. Welcome to the front row Lando who is the 2nd best driver at McLaren. Watch his eyes and body language, he knows he is.
Lewis has been done since Mercedes had to stop outspending the field, exposing his averageness, which is still good for 3 championships. Another great show boys!
Fun fact: I went to High School with Kings of Leon for one year in the late 90s. They moved to my city for one year before moving again. They were just normal kids then.
The only problem I have with everyone jumping on max is that yeah by the letter of the law he moved twice and should be penalized, fair enough. However I see all the drivers doing that exact same thing. Defending and then widening the corner almost like a dance with the driver on the outside. Look at silverstone 21 before the contact. Lewis goes to the inside and then what? Both simultaneously open the corner back up together. I could give other examples of other drivers as well so I just don’t see how what he did was different other than lando didn’t dance with him.
You had to go back 3 years to find an example to compare to max. There’s your problem. And Lewis got a penalty for silverstone so that example doesn’t even make sense 😂
Blocking was banned from racing decades ago, this isn't "new" ... and Vercrappen moved into and caused a collision hence the penalty. A driver with real talent and not the "Best car" wouldn't have resorted to such immature driving.
I said that was merely one example and Hamilton got a penalty for pushing max wide at the apex not moving to widen the corner. Also who exactly drove into who? Landos front wheel hit maxs rear. Go watch the drivers press conference today and see how many of them said yeah that wasn’t bad at all compared to others I’ve seen that go unpunished but sure go on
@@hunter_t18 go and see a shrink 😂
Ah. A refreshing new channel. Looking forward to the future of F1 with you guys. We can now hopefully go racing and stop all the hype and negativity. Right or wrong as Masi said” It’s called racing This Max is a giant and David ( Norris)is after him. This is racing.
Lando still needs to mature in fighting for the lead. And after the incident just get on with it and not moan and being childish about it. Max is like Senna and Schumi, rough and agressive that's how you win.
Agreed. Lando still slips into sim racer mode in the real car. The stuff he was trying is very sim lobby like. Unfortunately, think Lando is gonna be a DC, Riccardo, Bottas..he'll win alot of races,lots of podiums, but the WDC will be just out of reach
@@SaabJitsu I think Lando has got the natural talent but not (yet) the like "extra" that you need to be at the very top. But also if McLaren got the best car next year, he might as well be WC so... Although if Oscar gains more experience, like saving his tyres and stuff, he can be up there. We see already in quali he is on Lando his level just on pure speed.
@@justme7446Agreed, that last 1% that can't be taught. You either have it or you don't like a musician or actor. Make no mistake, Lando is VERY good just not sure if he has that 1%. His body language and eyes are very telling in the post race interviews, especially Monaco last year when Oscar won the sprint, he knew he had an inner team battle coming his way the next few years and the methodical way Oscar approaches driving it may be sooner than later.
Great these 2 talking f1
Love both of your takes on the "incident." Respect to Lando. Neither he nor Max has much experience racing for the lead in equal machinery. They both need to learn the right risk-reward balance and they will.
This is a very wise statement
This is just bloody nonsense!
🤔
Max had at least a entire season racing in equal potential machinerie.. are you ok?
Lando could have avoided colliding with Max’s car by leaving the track, exactly the same as Max did the previous lap. But Lando had the track limits penalty influencing his car placement and chose to make contact with Max. Unfortunate.

Peter was spot on. Max is the definition of greatness. He is superb, a king, a Sungod. Flawless in all his moves with perfect positioning. Gentle for his tires but ruthless for the competition. No one can touch him. All should bow deep for his excellence. 😗
@@billB101 You don't have the eye for detail ..... if you did you would have known to give a better answer
'why are you looking at me like that?!' 😆
Britt’s make up the vast majority of the F1 employees and track stewards. The bias is embarrassing for the sport. Glad to hear these two Britt’s can be objective. Love the Britt’s but the F1 media has vilified Max unnecessarily because he’s dominating the British sport. It’s not a British sport any longer it’s a global sport with a global audience. It’s not golf! It’s open wheel racing. Every driver defends aggressively. Every driver will shoot a gap if give. The fact that a track steward is is British and a GP driver leveled the penalty smacks of bias.
Hear hear
The best F1 podcast out there!
Poor little Norris 😢
He will never be Champion. Not man enough.
Hope,you feel better soon Eddie! Best wishes from a fellow Capetonian. 😊
You're absolutely right: Max did nothing wrong, except from not beeing a British racer it seems...🤮
In short, what DC and EJ is saying that F1 has gone soft.
Max can race in the era of Hunt, Senna or Schumi and can go toe to toe with them and not cry, Lando and Russel against those guys will cry and will need counseling.
George did not deserve the win. He celebrated as if he fought the fight. Typical British idiocracy
To win you have to first be in the right place even if he did get “lucky”…. You make your own luck and did deserve to win.
Oh come on who in their right mind wouldn't have celebrated that win?! I'm a Max fan but come on
Eddie and Flavio in the 90’s right hahaha love ya Eddie you legend. 🤣🤔🤐🥰
