It was a good race for red bull at the Aramco track in Texas and Max did manage to keep Lewis at bay for the final lap as close 0.5 seconds behind the leader most of it.
Ferrari and McLaren did have a battle at the beginning of the race and it was exciting to see since that sort of racing usually happen at the end of it.
Next one is the Mexican race at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez track in a little under two weeks.

Let's see what will happen but I believe that Max got the pole position and he will not leave it easily. Unless something happens during the start and he has a bad start, then he could drop, however if nothing like that happens then Max will have an easy race if you ask me. It is clear to me that Max is pissed off, and when he is pissed off he is aggressive and when is aggressive he races without any fear at all.
All of these combined makes him a dangerous driver, I believe that he will definitely be on the look out for any risky moves and will take them. Hamilton is not one that shy away from a fight, but when Max is fighting hard it is really hard to not let him be, hence it will be very difficult race for Hamilton. He had so many crashes with Hamilton that resulted with no points for Max, but whenever he races full race, he is always up there, rarely ever not doing something awesome. Dude even started at 20th and finished at 2nd at sochi, that should tell you how much he likes to drive to win.

Great racing from Max today as he really stood calm in the last laps and performed well with those tyres so it's a well deserved victory. Lewis did a great job too as he managed to overtake Max after the start but his team did not respond quickly to that undercut from Max and he lost precious seconds there. Another great battle was between Ferrari and McLaren who are fighting for that 3rd sport in championship and today Ferrari took more points.

Qualifying just finished at the Aramco track in Austin.
Red bull took 1st and 3rd with Hamilton in the middle. So Verstappen has pole position for tomorrows race as boltz had predicted above.
The track will more than likely stay dry for it so we shouldn't expect any out of the ordinary conditions for the drivers to contend with Sunday afternoon.

Max seems like he will give a tough challenge to Hamilton for the F1 championship title. One racer who surprised me is Perez. He is doing so well in recent times. Max and Hamilton both had a very small margin for the first place. Congrats to Verstappen for sinning the qualifiers and I'm so excited for the race.

Q3 about to happen and it looks that it might be a Pole-position for Max as RedBull is so quick after the last update which came this morning. Leclerc and Ferrari are doing the surprise and running fine with Leclerc who might snatch a top 3 with some luck but if not him Norris will steal it.

Here we are, on the United States GP weekend. This is going to be a really crucial race for the drivers in the competition for reaching the title at the end. There are only six races left (including this one) until the end of the season. Verstappen is only six points ahead of Hamilton in the driver standings. I really like it when there is a huge competition for being the champion. Because it was boring to see Hamilton dominating every season. I hope that we could see a different champion at the end.
I also love the fact that Hamilton has got a tough competition this year. Verstappen now has 262.5 and Hamilton has 256.5 points. So the difference is very low which means the room for error is also very low. The next 6 races will be very thrilling, especially for these 2. They would give their best to claim the title. I hope the title gets decided on the very last race at the very last moment very exciting.
I agree with you. If the champion driver is decided in the last race, it would be awesome. I assume that it would be the most watched race of the season. Because normally, Hamilton would already guarantee his title before the last race which is Abu Dhabi GP.
I really missed to see a big competition for reaching the title continuing until the last race. Verstappen is strong enough to beat Hamilton too. He just needs to fully concentrate on the remaining races. Otherwise, it is really tough to beat a driver like Hamilton when it comes to winning the title.

I agree with you, even though we root for our drivers, it's boring when he's way ahead in the tournament and his title is no longer threatened.The rider stops risking overtaking because he knows he only needs to secure the points he has and not lose them in a maneuver that could eventually take him off the track.
This year's championship is well disputed, it's very good to follow him and I hope it will be like that until the last race.
Alright, If a player is miles ahead in the title race then there's no joy in watching the races as they become a bit dull. But now we know for sure that both of these drivers will give it they're all in the upcoming races. What do you guys think who'll get the title? My hunch is that Hamilton will get it.

Hamilton is definitely a great racer. And his rivalry with Max Verstappen is a very exciting competition. However, I should note that Hamilton, having a lot of experience, but his age is 36 years old. And Verstappen is only 24.
Unfortunately for Hamilton, he has already started the process of slowing down his reaction, alas, it is more and more difficult for him. Although the brain is still very very fast!! Either way, watching this F 1 giants competition is exciting
Hamilton is somewhat nearing the end of his F1 career and Max has just started out, but still, the battle between these 2 experiences vs young blood is very exciting to watch. Hamilton has been the best driver in recent years and barely had any good enough competition to him and now Max is in great form (in fact he overtook Hamilton to be the no 1 F1 racer now) their rivalry in the coming months will be something I'll be eagerly waiting for.
Free practice in Austin is already starting today.
And on Sunday we are waiting for an interesting race.
I wonder what Bottas will do

To me, Hamilton is one of the greatest drivers in F1 if not the best. Winning 100 races is no joke. But recently I have been really enjoying the rivalry between Hamilton and Max Verstappen. If I'm not wrong, they even had a crash a few weeks back. And both of them are having close results recently. I'm curious to see how long the rivalry goes on as this keeps the hype alive.

It is a bit weird to see the driver's standings to be that close right now. We are so used to seeing the situation a lot different by this time, Hamilton usually reaches to point level where he already guarantees to become champions by this time.
It is is good to see that the situation is not over anymore but I am not really sure how to feel about this. I am a big fan of Lando Norris so I would have to say that there is nothing that changes for me if Max wins versus Hamilton, or if Hamilton ends up winning by the end, for me it is both the same. However we are watching one of the best rivalries that Hamilton ever had, for the past championships he didn't had any competition at all (except his own teammate) so this is a weird new feeling.

By the way, it may be too early, but it is still interesting that at the race in Mexico City, (which follows the US Grand Prix in Austin) in the last 4 years of 2016-2019, Hamilton won twice (2016,19) and Verstappen twice (2017,18).
And by the way, there is also a long high-speed section, where the speed is more than 360 km/h.
If we talk about the race in Austin, then I also think that Bottas will seriously help Hamilton. But let's see.

The end of the current F1 season will be so entertaining to watch as we can see that no one is backing up from the fight and Mercedes seems to have found another + on their car and they have that extra power again in front of RedBull ....but will Honda leave it like this ? I doubt it. Honda will put all their efforts into this year in order to win the championship with Verstappen so I think after the USA GP , the cars will be equal again as for now Mercedes had the upper hand again.
October 16, 2021, 11:05:58 AM
The race in Austin is interesting because there are two large straight sections and the advantage of high-speed cars there will be obvious. In addition, the turns are wide and pilots can use different trajectories. In general,
I'm looking forward to this race.
Let's see if Bottas can prove himself a hero, as it was in Turkey?

Well, if we all agree Bottas only can do well if he protects and not attacks, then he only wins this if he is fastest driver to get pole. Which he never really has been.
Hamilton in pole, and then it's over, so people will hope for more penalties. Verstappen podium but not certain of 1st.
^ To be honest, it is not Bottas' work to be the aggressor, It's Hamilton's. Bottas works as his wingman and support. But from what you have said about the tracks, I feel that Mercedes will have an advantage in this race as their cars excel in straight paths and as the turns are even wide, Hamilton will be able to win the race if he gets enough support from Bottas and doesn't make any big mistake.
One thing that I admire about Bottas is on how consistent he drives every race. In addition, he is a bit compliant regarding their team's decision to let Hamilton through but this will all change once he transfers to Alfa Romeo this 2022!
In addition, I think that the next race will favor Mercedes along with the wide curves and straights on the racing field. Along with a hungry and mad Hamilton, he surely won't miss this opportunity to grab more points and to be the leader against Verstappen.
