Well done MK and yco!
VER takes out competitors during FP….he is a bully and very, very immature….a product of no guidance to drive this out of him….instead, VER is praised for behavior that would land him wearing a paper hat and asking if you would like fries with that from many other teams.

No one wants to see an accident happen, the FIA were clear, both driver were at fault but Horner and Marko have yet again made Max believe he is blameless, when the fact is he is too aggressive and may eventually get someone killed. At the time of the collision Max was steering hard right, this 1 sec after seeing Ham front wing level with his front right tyre. Max gave His usual choice , give way or collide.

Max is a hugely talented driver and potentially a world champion but if he ends up dead or killing someone then Horner and Marko will be partly to blame. Hopefully Max has more sense than those two windbags and hopefully his fans see the sense in ensuring he learns some caution.

This is a reinforcement of the Ralf Schumacher Story.

Both of these reflect a complete lack of understanding of how large, highly successful organizations work. A complete lack of understanding.

That is all.

This is spot on and I would only make one modification: IMHO, there is no such thing as a potential WDC. I've heard this said about too many drivers to count and they failed. Winning a Formula One race is a serious achievement. Winning multiple F1 races is an unbelievable achievement. Winning a WDC is one of the most difficult achievements in all of sports. Winning multiple is beyond belief. Winning 7 is unspeakable.

Max demonstrated that he won't be a WDC unless the RBR management team make a decision to be completely real with him but I don't have hope for that. Introspection is not the strong suit of that organization. There isn't a single stabilizing hand in management except for Jonathon Wheatley and I fear that he may be the odd man out.

The whole team is toxic and a blight on the sport.

But without the "Blight" it would be as boring as the last 7 years. MB's in their own 2 car race out front & the also rans

Ferrari tried one year but had to cheat. At least McLaren appear to be catching up.

Winning does not = boring....

If you are looking for shunts, look no further than the Ricky Bobby Gang in NASCAR....perhaps you align with them and let that good-old-boy-paint-swappin' to commence.

Bad sportsmanship, aggressive driving, and the like isn't exciting. Since when is bad behavior something to be admired?

I don't want to see anyone hurt or killed, but it does get boring when one team/driver(s) are so dominant for years........I also don't want to see any one hurt or injured but some drama/excitement does help make the sport better IMO.

I completely understand this.

I'm thinking more Ferrari v McLaren style fighting or Ferrari v Renault. These were titanic battles without all of the drama that RBR brings to the table.

They were doing the same drama in the EBD era. It's what they do.
