Let LEW first try to beat his teammate the Russell Boy in this season.
All I said was that Charlie never will be the 2nd (#2) driver at Ferrari.
If you push it 'beyond the limits in qualifying , things can go wrong like spinning and hit the wall..
There are moments when no one is faster than Charlie , over one fast lap .
That's why Charlie sometimes can beat MAX , while LEW already was knocked out in Q2..

LEW's times are gone in his Merc rocket with the cheating party-mode and winning in cruise control while Bottas got team orders to give P1 to LEW.
Charlie won't be a lap dog like Bottas was ...Never !

Carlos finished with what? 6 points behind Charlie... and he could've easily finished ahead of him in the standings. I do agree that Leclerc is ferrari's #1 driver but the racing battles between Charlie and Carlos this past season were fun and nothing dramatic in my opinion. We could see something similar with Lewis, who knows.

In 2025 , LEW's mission is to prove himself ASAP as the 7-time WDC at his new Ferrari Team , and he is very well payed for that ($100Million - 2/year contract)! + bonuses !
LEW is used to get huge loads of respect and attention like a spoiled child as the ultimate #1 driver at Mercedes and to get a lapdog teammate (on demand)!

Charlie is a thoroughbred wheel to wheel fighter , to defend his postion at the track and in his team .
The car and the team is built around Charlie .The Tifosi's last breath is car number 16.
Charlie is completely 'RED !

My prediction is Ferrari 'dog fights ! Can't be otherwise ...

Exactly !
Let us no forget , the Ferrari was a 5H1T-Box . But the Merc was even worse with the zero sidepod design ..

The Ferrari and the Merc got extreme porpoising by the new FKN FIA regulations (ground-effect cars)
It wasn't a joke for Charlie to drive in the bouncing Ferrari ...

Charlie is always screwed by the retarded Italian pit-clowns and the idiotic Plan-B race strategy..
Honestly ...If MAX wasn't driving in F1 . Charlie would be my man !

A down to earth experienced manager looking at LEW's supposed renumeration coming to Ferrari: WTF are you on.
Then asks 'Is there a cooling off period where you guys can back out of it'.

^ He still hasn't got over '21 Abu D, the hurt continues and Wolf must have his hands full with the constant moans.

LMAO !!!

At Ferrari that will be in red ...

The hate on Lewis' outfits bugs me, not specifically calling you out, it seems like half the F1 fans rip on him.

Men have shoehorned ourselves into wearing boring ass clothing. Pants, Shirts. suits, etc. Uniforms. That's it. Women on the other hand have tons of options. One guy steps out and decides to do something different and every other guy just gets on his case, saying "get back in your lane". Let the man live his life. You don't have to like his outfits or want to follow in his footsteps. As a society, we celebrate women breaking down historical barriers, but just beat down men who try to do the same.

Bro, you can call me out. Lots has to do with cultural differences and geographical locations. Seattle and North Carolina two very different worlds in the same country.

As for me, I'm not shoehorned and the southern man's uniform suits me just fine. But, fellows dressed like hammy just don't go around here. I wouldn't wanna live where they do.

I've lived all over, just currently in the Seattle area. Most of my time was spent on the east coast. Only here for the mountains, don't necessarily care for the politics. But yes, I have seen dudes dressed like this. Also seen (not unattractive) women walking down the street in Seattle topless. it's wild out here.

I just let others live their own life. Letting his outfits bother me only hurts me. Dude does whatever he wants, he doesn't care what anyone thinks. Maybe that's what everyone finds threatening?

I wouldn't wear most of the things that he does, but I think it's cool seeing someone not just putting on their uniform and getting in line.

People hate seeing someone so comfortable in their own skin. It sheds light on their own insecurities.
