There seems to be a narrative that Max Verstappen was a better qualifier than Lewis Hamilton in 2021 but that's not necessarily true.
Here's a thread on why Lewis' 2021 qualifying was underrated 🧵
A tough season plagued with bad luck, poor race direction and 8 DNFs. An unlucky final race sees @ffcgm4306 just miss out on a first championship while the team misses on the WCC. Lots of work to do but we’ll take the positives into next year and fight again ❤️
We can confirm our former N2 junior @hovsintern joins McLaren on loan from Mercedes. Under the loan agreement, we retain the ability to recall Barn at the end of the first year to drive for the team if necessary. We wish him well at the team 🤝
🚨 THIS OFFICIALLY MEANS our Season 9 Norstappen driver lineup has been locked in:
TP: @FormulaNicooo
N1 Drivers: @EFCHamilton & @ffcgm4306
N2 Driver: @kamuiisthegoat
Our S8 Junior @suckonthemnuts joins @BMWnorstappen on loan for Season 9 🏎️
Whatever happens, we are extremely proud of Gab and the teams effort this season. We’ve been unlucky with reliability and DNFs but to still be in this fight shows the teams push to win. Let’s finish it at AD and get @ffcgm4306 that long awaited WDC finally ❤️
@ffcgm4306 -
12 Grand Prix Victories
40 Podiums
11 Pole Positions
Gabriel has finished 2nd in the WDC twice in his career (S2 & S5)! On his return with Mercedes, can he finally secure that long awaited WDC?
Mercedes are disappointed with race direction of Formula Norstappen in the recent races. If this continues, the team may decide to drop out of the series. We want to work constructively to improve the situation before coming to any decision
🚨BREAKING: After further discussion with Formula Norstappen Team Principals, Formula Norstappen has decided to ABOLISH DNFs for S9 and beyond.
In the event of switching to UR2D2, DNFs will occur organically, not from an outside party (the wheel).
ITS A SECOND WIN OF THE SEASON FOR @ffcgm4306 AS HE PUTS IN A BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP. UNLUCKY FOR @EFCHamilton WHO GOT HIT AND LED TO A DNF
After a strong start to the N2 season for @suckonthemnuts, he will join BMW on loan for Season 9. Mercedes hold the option to recall him for season 10 pending an available seat. Best of luck for next season mate 🔥
ITS A FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON FOR OUR ROOKIE DRIVER @EFCHamilton AS HE TAKES THE FLAG IN HIS HOME RACE. STRONG RACE OVERALL FROM THE TEAM AS @ffcgm4306 FINISHES IN P6 💪🇬🇧
