I wont give my reasons or bias's about why but "Who will win the 2021 F-1 World Championship? Points are matched at 365.5 each, Max Verstapen starts on the Pole after a fantastic qualifying run, but on soft tires. Louis Hamilton starts second on Medium tires, but has a better line to the first turn. So give Me Your call on this race, "Who will win and be the 2021 World Champ.?" Its 6am here in Arizona USA, I'm up and pumped and I am up not going to miss this. My vote goes to Max! What's Yours. Chris

I've had it! F1 is merely a shadow of what it once was. I really don't care about Max and his rival. I care the least for a driver that said he didn't owe F1 for anything...sorry that's not a champion in my experience. Sad, really sad.

I didnt care for the 2021 Politics, although it was kind of interesting to try to figure out. I follow F-1 Closely for the Technology .. Since all other series seem to be really just Spec series Bring back No Rules Can AM, Run Whatcha Brung Indy Cars, and Truly Technology based F-1 racing. Really, the Current crop of F-1 Driver's are a bunch of Politically motivated Sissies , when I saw half the drivers kneel in Qatar during that countries Athem, that was it ..... These Gentleman get paid millions of dollars to drive the sh*t out of these cars, not moan about world Politics. Nuff said ! I cant wait for next year when the cars will change big time and Rumor has it Jean Todt will be back at Ferrari.... The Drivers who finished in the Top 8 this year could be considered real Drivers, now let them do that, Nicky Lauda never got in trouble for Track Limits!! Give Me a Break! Chris

Miami race was okay. So glad I did not pay big bucks to watch a 90 minute race that was pretty predictable. I did go to a watch party that was actually near real water and boats. The biggest joke is all the celebrities that show up to races that know very little about racing.

Spain race was a little more entertaining than Miami. I won’t spoil it for anyone that has not seen it yet.

So how could Mercedes be so far off and Red Bull so good?
Take a look at the underside of Checo's car at Monaco... it is distinctly different in shape than the others. And has taken advantage of some of the engineering rules for F1. While the top of the cars may look similar, the floors and underside of the floor is completely different. One little "ice skate" vane for Red Bull has decreased the amount of "porpoising". And now, Ferrari will be looking at grid penalties because of overuse of equipment. While it is likely ALL teams will suffer during the season, Ferrari will be the first and mainly, LeClerc. The days of unlimited parts and changes are gone.
And if it looks like the 2021 champ is going to win a race, I turn off the coverage as soon as it is over. After what Red Bull has done to Perez, and after watching Drive to Survive; Season 4, I care very little for Max or Horner. I look at Max as the "Kyle Busch" of F1... willing to cheat on the track and fudge things and then whine when they don't go his way. And Horner is so arrogant, especially when it comes to Toto Wolff, I just get annoyed. Funny you don't hear Horner talking smack about Mattis Binoto. I think he is too scared of him... and the deep pockets of Ferrari!
Anyway, we are in Montreal this weekend and I hope it is a good race. Practice should be interesting and qualifying will tell us all we need (or want) to know.

By the way, the Baku race is a joke... mostly. Two 90 degree corners for the first two turns? And we are lucky there were no major incidents going up the hill by the castle in turn 8. I am not sure I like this track at all.
