Artemis wroteBrilliant shot of MAX with Zak..no pretence there.Proposal for Zak Brown to keep morale up between his drivers: settle for WDC P2 and WDC P3, don't get that doomed 2025 WDC title. One of them getting the 2025 WDC title would make the other feel way too bad. Go for absolute equality and good team spirit, Zak.
Undoubtedly, Verstappen is kindly willing – in a Kimi Räikkönen 2007 fashion – to help Zak Brown achieving this noble goal. A friend in need is a friend indeed.

McLaren are having a team meeting to discuss team orders ....
"Andrea Stella insists McLaren does not want to "surprise" Lando Norris or Oscar Piastri at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix by enacting team orders in a scenario it has not discussed with them."
most likely what he means is if Lando is behind Oscar, then "Oscar, let Lando through"
really i have no idea what will happen this weekend!

In normal circumstances It's just MAX vs both Papaya's.
The best advantage is of course the pole position and McLaren has the fastest car to do it..
But in T1 anything can go wrong , also for the MAX-factor.
May the best driver take it all (!)

///M Power-Belgium wrotePIA may have to concede under protest if it were such near the end of the race as much as we would hope he does not comply, but then he would face the scowls of 2500 McLaren employees should MAX benefit from that...oh the excitement building already

If Max is in first and Piastri is in 3rd with Lando in 4th, Max would win the championship. But if the MCL cars swap, Lando wins.
On the flip, there is zero situation where Lando letting Piastri through would help anyone.
