Even airborne for a second Max just braked to restore control, the extra ballast probably helped also.

This is Formula 1 @ThisIsFormu1a1
KING | Christian Horner and BYD Discuss Potential Formula 1 Entry:

Christian Horner has engaged in discussions with BYD vice-president Stella Li as the Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer considers entering Formula 1. Speaking to media, Li confirmed:

“We are always in close contact. I like Formula 1 because it's about passion and culture, and people dream of being in Formula 1.”

— BYD is exploring the possibility of establishing a new team rather than acquiring a minority stake in an existing one. Li expressed enthusiasm about the potential F1 project:

“We are discussing the possibility of joining the Formula 1 grid, which would provide the opportunity to put our technology to the test.”

— The company, which has overtaken Tesla as the leading electric car manufacturer, is interested in becoming the 12th team in the sport. FIA President Mohammed Ben Sulayem commented on the potential for new teams:

“If there is a Chinese [bid], and I will speak on behalf of them [FOM] now in front of you, they will agree to that, because it is about sustaining the business.”

Ben Sulayem emphasized the importance of adding value to the championship:

“For us, the [12th] team has to add value to sustaining the business of Formula 1, and the business of Formula 1 is not about the income, it's about the longevity of the championship itself.”

— Stefano Domenicali, CEO of Formula One Group, highlighted the need for caution with new team entries:

“We'll only evaluate a bid of great significance because I think we're already at a point with no more room; logistically, we're at the limit.”

— Christian Horner, who left his roles at Red Bull in 2025, is now free to pursue new opportunities in Formula 1. His meetings with Li in Cannes suggest a potential collaboration with BYD.

— Horner's proven track record makes him an attractive prospect for investment, and his involvement with BYD could pave the way for a new team in the sport.

I guess human rights means crap when there is money involved. Get that tire change under 2 seconds or we will harvest your organs?

What I can make of that is he pushed the Cayman into MAX's path also but we know MAX's tiger cat reflexes. As for the LHD Cayman he could see 3 car on his near mirror but wasn't quick enough to notice he had a double barrel at once on both sides.
* Look at car 3's brake lights coming on before the hit, he knew what was going to happen.

Maybe someone should start a Max Verstappen topic? There is a formula one race this weekend and we best enjoy that while we can?

Poor GuidoK's work is getting trampled

I must admit that F1 had somewhat disappeared from the radar screen with me while this exciting GT3 weekend was in full swing. Now that it's over and the other approaching I can still faintly hear Fernie's words of 'boring' but I will still fathom it
