Not while I'm braking!
You'd think he was asking Max what colour his new drapes should be.
Max probably wishing the crowd at the podium ceremony to have a “nice evening in their houses” again. Mexico will probably be even worse.
Never understood how you are able to boo to any sportsman or woman. They just did something you'll not be able to achieve in a zillion years and what do you decide to do? Give the most childish respons possible. The thought processes of some people smh.
They weren't booing Max. They were booing the Texas governor Greg Abbott who presented the award to Max.
Ah, that makes more sense.
Fuck that ass clown (i.e., Abbott).
I noticed LH had a few more fans than normal at the track this year.
I'm gonna press [x] to doubt on that as he was already being boo'd when he walked onto the podium. Maybe it was a bit of both.
also you can boo max all you want, that won't make checo any faster
True story
Mexico City Grand Prix next weekend, eh? Hopefully we'll hear the return of this classic.

I just want Lando to win one man, hopefully soon!
That was a funny race, I think mainly to the problems Max had with the brakes and also due to his mistake in qualifying, but still, it was nice to see a bit of uncertainty with the strategies.
What the hell happened to Danny Ric’s race?
Tost said that his brake duct broke off some time during his first stint, which lost him a lot of downforce and upset the balance of the car.
Bad strategy choice. Looked like he was going for a one stop. He was the last to pit for new tyres after a long first stint. Not sure if his switch to softs at the end was an attempt to salvage something, but by then the damage was done.
