I find this season fascinating not just for the close racing but watching the freefall of RedBull... I'd seen teams miss the boat on technical reg changes, but they started the year dominating and are in freefall now...Amazing !
Horner was never "easy to like" as some say, but what a comeuppance this year...
They've been mired in Hornergate, had internal fights for control between H and Marko, lost Adrian Newey, will probably lose Verstappen first exit clause he gets, and apparently (from press) a lot of high up RB folks are applying elsewhere because working there is pretty unappealing these days. Yikes... Can't say I'm too sorry after years of listening to that smug Horner comments post races... I much prefer Vasseur and Toto in terms of honesty.
Also, Calopinto in the points in a wiliams - had never heard of him but looks like "for a pay driver", he's actually pretty decent.
Perez could have won that race if not held up behind Albon then Norris (on purpose), nvm tangling with Sainz. He was way ahead of Max, what on earth is going on with that car all of a sudden??? Apparently his car was pretty damaged (floor etc) and it's a short turnaround to Singapour with parts needing flying from England so that's probably not helping them prepare..
And bearman again !! Ahead of Hulk ! Who misses Kmag ?
