A little surprise, Honda is now building the engines for RedBull until 2025 and not only until 2022 as planned. I think this is very good news for RedBull and they can now concentrate fully on the next season and defending the title.

Yup just heard about this one. Verstappen’s win of the driver’s championship could’ve enouraged them to push for another three years and try to win the constructor’s championship? It’s very possible imho. And Honda prolly discovered something that they could do in line with the 2022 specs. Can’t wait for testing!
Nope and who would wish that on anybody? I’m just make a point and saying did you guys notice Raikonnen’s driving last season? His reflexes aren’t what they used to. He’s making a lot of mistakes out there in the race, making him a danger to himself and all the other drivers. It’s prolly age related dunno. But if you were watching, you kinda knew he was done in F1.
And what do you mean by ‘surprise’? It’s not gonna happen imho. The season starts in less than a couple of months from now.
Don't agree about Kimi. He wasn't that bad last season as you describe. Offcourse, he was not as good as in his prime, but that's normal thing. He outscored Giovinazzi by quite big margin and haven't finished just in few races. Mazepin, Latifi or Tsunoda is more dangerous for other drivers than Kimi.And what do you mean by ‘surprise’? It’s not gonna happen imho. The season starts in less than a couple of months from now.
Offcourse, we're not talking about Kimi racing in Mercedes. It sounds more like a joke.
I never said he had a bad season or that he sucks as a driver now, just saying that he’s getting old and he’s losing those reflexes. There were multiple instances during the season when it showed. I mean I can’t remember exactly when and where but I do know that there more than a couple of times when me and my friends were going ‘whooaaa almost’ because he touched the car next to him or he was a tad slow to make an adjustment. But yeah..
