Max is going to hate these regs even more after this race & spa because his battery would probably just go flat after MnB

RIP Ferrari.

Absolute lunacy, what an abomination of a rule set. I hope heads will roll somewhere, for the people who actually thought this up.

So a person from the web did a thing and that "proved" something?

This isn't Max, it isn't an official source, it's simply "some bloke from the web".

Yes, his "simulation" might be correct but until we see the real thing it's irrelevant.

I expect the top 4 spots to be comfortably occupied by the Merc engined teams. I wonder if maybe Alpine will also look very good here.

What is the guy responding to with that article? A quote by the best driver in F1, after trying the track on Red Bull's simulator:

Just to remind you, he has been right about this farce for more than two years now (and his source was their simulator, as well).

This "some bloke from the web" the way you refer to him with contempt, derogatory and in a disparaging manner,
is always great in what he does.
It is part of his job. He is famous for it.

We'll find out for real whether the mitigations introduced to prevent a terrible spectacle are going to work.

My gut feeling is that if they prevent the Maggots/Becketts section from being a test of driver skill and car performance then they will lose the game and it's all going to stink.

The Suzuka Esses were sacrificed to the altar of harvesting...I can imagine that from Woodcote there will be a huge drain and by Copse there will be clipping and by Maggots....we're just cruising to charge up before the Hangar Straight.
