The ghost of Jean-Marie Balestre still stalks the paddock.

Wait…

didn’t they fire Michael Masi?

In addition that BS about the safety car that the GPS showed his car slightly on track is BS. They have radio communication with the corner workers and video that showed that he was off the track and didn’t need a pace car that totally helped Max.

Who's going to take care of his hair? 😉

This seems very different from what he wrote on his social media post, thanking her for everything and wishing her the best in her next steps to fulfilling her dreams and continues to say he can`t wait to see what her future has in store for her.

Media always trying to stir sh*t 😀

Rumor has it Verstappen is making him go bald, making her redundant.

My friend was over and found that comment borderline offensive.

Also you’re apparently not aware of her and her background. She is a high end sports trainer just like every other driver has… the exception is she also specializes in sports psychology. Hamilton before her was a different driver with her he became better and an amazing ambassador for the sport.

My offense was aimed at Hamilton. The appearance of his hair plugs are the 2nd most important thing to him. Making his personal trainer ensure they poke out from his his hat just right.
I don't question her competence. Merely poking at his vanity.
Not a fan.

Hair Plugs... No he is Black, he has naturally kinky hair, and chose to grow it out in a natural style the only way for him to wear it with a helmet is with braids. Not making similar comments about Vettle and his long hair...

You may not have meant it that way, but that is the way it comes off.

Speaking as a bald person, I recognize it from a mile away. Hammy is bald, well was bald. Massive amount of hair plugs / extensions. Better than a wig I suppose. 😉
Not that there is anything wrong with it, just erked all the time with his hair maintenance. Nobody can speak with him pre-race as he is in his zone.
I don't question his ability. I simply don't root for him. I prefer the "James Hunt" style of racer.

Kimi refused to talk to the press pre race, as do many notibly Ricardo as well.

well Max is far from James as well.

Yea you’re absolutely correct, Lewis was sitting around a Norwood 5-6 back in 2010, now he’s back to a Norwood 1, that’s only possible with a high quality transplant which he absolutely has the means to afford. Male pattern baldness doesn’t respect ethnicity nor racing ability, he might not be willing to share that he’s had a plug but its just not possible for it to be anything else given the change we’ve all seen over time. Seb has a serious receding hairline too and young Oscar Piastri is about 5 years away from choosing between a buzzcut or a plug too.

Let’s admit that George Russel is the embodiment of a 60’s James Bond and our wives and girlfriends would leave us all in a heartbeat.

I mean he’s a good looking dude, top 3 for sure… but the Ferrari boys are pretty top tier, Carlos’ hair still looks incredible after he takes his helmet off and Charles is just an incredibly handsome bloke both with great accents. I’m straight and have a girlfriend, but if I weren’t I’d 100% be a Ferrari fan.

This made me laugh! But you're not wrong.

My wife thinks Norris is a bit of alright. (Although she’s old enough to be his mother)

And why hasn’t Gillette or Wilkinson Sword snapped up baby-face Russell as a product ambassador?
