Yeah - it would have been more in keeping somehow.
Yes, but then this would have been interpreted that Charles is second to Lewis. Each of them will have to prove who's the top driver this season.

I can see that point, but to me it would have been more "the 2 luckiest guys in the world on a joyride", which is kinda the entire point!

Sure, I can see that, but obviously they didn't want to pursue it. In any case, it was a fun recreation.

The most interesting thing I learned from this long 30min video is the story of how the deal for TAG to acquire Heuer was done purely by a chance meeting on an airplane! 🤯

When then owner Piaget, who in a ruthless takeover wrestled the Heuer company away from Jack Heuer in '82, was sitting next to Ojjeh (TAG) on a plane and their discussion began. Fascinating!

Yes, that was the most revealing part of the interview / video.

It was a very interesting GP! 👍🏼

Great race by Kimi Antonelli! 😊
What a recovery for a rookie in his first F1 race, from P16 to P4, just behind Russell!! 👏🏼


And Mercedes-AMG leading the Constructors Championship with McLaren-Mercedes, 27 points for both! 😊💪🏼
