My friend, we shall see. The cars don't do the talking. The drivers do. 2017 and 2018 Ferrari win both WDC and WCC without HAM in the seat. They win at a canter.

This season should be no excuses. Max has the faster car. Let's see what he can do with it this season.

It's make or break for Max.

Well my good friend , the whole situation depends from Mercedes .
In other words : The *W12 !

Regarding the winter test in Bahrain :
Was Mercedes sandbagging like usual ?
Or weren't they sandbagging and really in trouble ?

Honestly ..Don't think Sir7ewis transformed his W12 in a gravel machine , just for fun !!!

That's the million dollar question !!!

And *IF MAX has the faster car ?
Well ...MAX showed that last season in Abu Dhabi !
MAX drove there very relaxed to the victory ! Isn't it ?

Yeah , that was a boring race , but this time after a decade of Mercedes dominance finally the answer came Red Bull's side with MAX !
Within "ONE" (1) week we'll know it my good friend !

Note : Just like you ...I can't wait !!!

As you said : The cars don't do the talking. The drivers do ?

"44" in Bahrain looking for traction in the gravel...

I don't think that Max will see it like a make or break situation, he'll go at the pace that suits him.

It's make or break against Perez. Max didn't do well against RIC and it's not a foregone conclusion that he will do well against PER.

This is what make-or-break means, my friend!!

It's widely believed (by the experts) that Checo will need at least FIVE races to get up to proper pace with the 16B, that leads me to believe that he could have a tough time dealing with McLaren and Merc while he's learning.

Disinformation, my friend. This is the kind of BS that fuels speculation.

PER is an F1 driver with 10 years of experience and this is his 3rd team. He will do well against VER.

LOL!

I'd rather use my own critical thinking skills than depend on some reporter. Look how wrong they were with the move of Lewis to Mercedes.

These journalists get into places where we can't and are really the one's to go by as the secretiveness gets more from the teams with what they have got.
We can't just go by what the teams' spokesperson's say who take the not so knowledgable fans for a buggy ride.

Have you watched the news lately?

Look how wrong they are each time they say Max is a rainmeister when all evidence points to the contrary.

More to come ....Soon !

Watched "Drive to Survive" last night .
It was the first season covering the 2018 World Championship premiered on 8 March 2019 .
Interesting question to RIC was : Would you win the championship in Lewis Hamilton's Mercedes ?
What followed from RIC was a big "YES" !!!

Season 1 (S01) => https://rarbgto.org/torrent/8s9l4gn#exp_mediainfo

Of course I've already season 2 & 3 as well => https://rarbgto.org/torrents.php?sea...ive+to+survive

Honestly I was blown away by the onboard images in fantastic quality on my big screen !

Now it was muddy, as well, my friend?

The excuses are just embarrassing now!!

Do you remember how much you and my dear friend Philippe were crowing about how that was Max's weekend and Lewis was nowhere?

How did that work out?

Get ready for more of the same?

And apparently it was only on the parts of the track that MAX was driving on

Like none of the other drivers had to deal with the same conditions

Perez should be on speed in his first weekend, 5 races is too much, that’s stupid.
He has done lots of simulations last months and many racing years.

His over estimated team mate did win his first GP for Red Bull without all of that. ( youngest GP winner )
