This is the stuff I love and the kind of thing that's made me warm up to Max...the mind games:
New Lando Norris evidence emerges after Max Verstappen 'took the p*ss'

I said it earlier, the pressure is all on McLaren and it's tough to win when you're driving in your rearview mirror. Max knows this.

Stuff like this makes me think Max has a decent shot at WDC. Lando's head game has been pretty good for the last 4-5 races, but it is clearly fragile. I can't help but think the plank DSQ won't weigh on the team's minds.

It's Lando's to lose.

Piastri and Max 2027.

I can't see that happening, but this is F1.

Max leaving RB would start a ridiculous bidding war. If Max leaves before his contracts ends in 2028 it will be via his performance clause, so he's not going to a losing team. Unless Toto kicks one of his current drivers (likely) that leaves Max with McLaren (unlikely) and Ferrari (oof) unless AMR has a strong car. With Horner back in the mix would Max go there, Newey or not? Dunno.

If Max stays 2027's biggest free agents (I think most of the field's contracts end in 2027) are LeClerc and Piastri.

2026's silly season is going to be wild.

I want to believe Cadillac will come out and be a solid 6th-7th place contender next year.

Who will get their power unit right and who will struggle?
