Anyway despite the race being somewhat dull the result is good for the championship. If Lewis can win in Saudi then Abu Dhabi becomes a winner takes all contest. For me Max is still the favourite as I think Yas Marina will better suit the Red Bull, but if there is one team/driver who can pull this out of the hat it's Merc/Lewis. Even as a Lewis fan I find myself strangely conflicted... I am not sure I want the domination to continue, but more to the point I think Max has been marginally the better driver across the season and has suffered some points losses not of his own making. However you have to take your hat off to Lewis, still massively motivated after all these wins and championships. A cliche, but may the best team/driver win.
Agree with the Max v Lewis form this season. I’m a big Lewis fan but think Max really has been more solid with his form this season. Lewis has really come good late on (Toto says RB have ‘woken the lion in Lewis’) but I still look back on that accident with the brake button early in the season where he threw away 25 points and think that it’s going decide the title in Max’s favour. It was a mistake you just couldn’t see Max making this year.
Whoever finishes runner up doesn’t make one a lesser driver overall IMO. Both are on a level above the rest at the moment. Absolutely World Class the pair of them.
