Looking forward to it. Not that long to go now but it still feels like ages. The team seems positive so far but you could say the same for printable calendar 2023 every team.

Bottas has always been a one lap hero, he’s just rubbish at the racing part.
The car has let him down alot this year.
What was his excuse for not being able to overtake at Mercedes?
It's pretty obvious that Bottas is far from being a Lewis Hamilton. Just saying, it wouldn't have matter this year how good he is, he had many DNFs.

Clean side is usually pretty strong on this grid... Lando may lose positions, Daniel could gain

I don't think we can get that 4th place not when we have a driver who is constantly out of top 10.

oil and brakes already over heating for Lando's car, might aswell hang back and look after tyres

In any case I can't wait for this year to end. It was kind of dissapointing to be honest as I expected for the next step after 2021. Let's hope for the team to produce a car that will be much much closer next year and definately clear up the midfield from the start.

This is shaping up to be another terrible race in Mexico. I don’t recall Mclaren ever having a good one since it came back on the calendar🤦🏼‍♂️
