The cup is in the middle, the champion is on the left and the opponent is on the right. It feels like weight, and there’s tension on balancing, although in the press conference before the crucial Abu Dhabi race there was a lot of linden and no sparks, but they didn’t shake hands. They didn’t even look at each other’s faces, nor did they look at a single gesture in twenty minutes of talking.

The Dutchman criticized the penalties he received in Saudi Arabia for overstepping the bounds of the track (as he did in Brazil, with impunity), and emphasized that he had “different rules from the rest”.

The other two who had done so before did not receive it. I do not understand. We both go outside, one turn. For some reason they see this as my fault, I disagree.

Everyone should be able to run that way,” he said. crazy max Visibly upset, a few hours before appearing in peace. The Red Bull driver confirms this He will give “congratulations” to Hamilton’s “if fair” champion.
