@andrewje_home @plantstappen Villeneuve never makes dumb statements.
He’s probably the only unbiased F1 pundit on this planet.

@andrewje_home ‘What if’ is dumb. Always is.
Being unlucky or lucky is equally nonsense.
Facts are facts, and Stats are stats.

@jadeelf254 @thanos876 Let's focus on what we can control.

@andrewje_home @thanos876 The budget cap is irrelevant when you compare the spending from both teams, as Mercedes has always been spending more than any team in the past 10 years, therefore the budget cap:

@MV33Racing Team orders should never exist.
It's not fair to the drivers.
Let them race.
