Yuki deserved this seat.

I don't disagree with that.

"Deserved" is an interesting word to use.

Just because he put in time, doesn't mean he deserves anything. 4 years on the grid and all that he has to show for it is being 0.07 seconds faster than Liam, who was on some tracks that he's never seen before, in a car that he's only driven a handful of times.

I don't see Yuki on the grid in 2026. Unless maybe Honda convinces Stroll or Alonso to retire.

I admit honestly, I haven’t seen about half of them and didn’t even imagine that they exist!

Seriously! Wow that's a nice call and believe from you. We shall see right

Helmut Marko admits Yuki Tsunoda is currently faster than Liam Lawson but has concerns about his consistency and mentality 🧠

Max Verstappen:

- I have serious doubts that I will become champion in 2025 if everything continues in the same vein.

- I would never want to relive Abu Dhabi 2021, although many consider it one of the best days. To be honest, no joke, I was close to a heart attack, and I remember everything fragmentarily. It was physically bad.

- After qualifying in Brazil 2024, I was very angry, I wanted to smash everything to hell. But I came back, and my father was sitting there. He was sitting there and was so calm that it immediately affected me, and I stopped being nervous.

- Some teams in 2024 openly cheated, and everyone knows about it, but no one stopped them. It's hard to fight.

Michael had the ability to develop the car completely in his own style with the engineers. Lewis can't; he will never be able to do that.

Of course he is. That's part of the reason why they signed Lawson and not Tsunoda. Can't have Max under pressure.
