He comes across really well in that
His Dad would have kicked the driver before they arrived at the destination. :mrgreen:
Hahaha, how funny! #-o
His father would kindly ask him to sh*t up after a while.
He does the same with annoying journalists.

C'mon, unlike Jos Verstappen, a bit of banter doesn't harm anyone ;)
We should not be taking everything too serious.

You can of course think that, but it's starting to get annoying that Max is repeatedly compared to the behavior his father showed in the past. His father has also become a bit calmer in the meantime.
A few weeks ago a number of posts were removed here with articles about Jos' past. This is about RBR and Max and Sergio, not their fathers.

Sure, but those posts weren't obvious jokes like Big Tea's comment. They were serious comments on how past behaviours of Jos were somehow 'proof' that Max was to blame for certain situations, which makes absolutely no sense for an argument, and those posts were rightfully deleted. And yes, this thread is about RBR - but that doesn't mean every contribution needs to be 100% serious, right? There should be some room in forum interactions for a bit of joking around, as long as it's clear they are jokes.

There are certain jokes I will never make about Lewis or his lineage. However funny some people might think they are.

And what is a fun joke? For me all is on the table, there is only one legit question. Is the joker making that joke honoustly, or with an intent to hurt. Second part is not fun and shouldn’t be done.

There is a difference in jokes that makes fun of someone’s behaviour or joking of someone’s heritage or disabilities.

You can make fun of my disabilities (of which there are a lot) there is just one reason (for me) not to do it, and that is when you legitimately are trying to hurt me, not making a joke on which we both can laugh. So it is a question of intent to me. But it is s thin line, and like with so many things in real life, proving intent is impossible. So best stay away from certain actions and comments if you are, or aim to be, an honorable person.

It is striking that it is never the RBR/Honda supporters who make "jokes" about Jos in this topic.
They only post about RBRH and their drivers.

Suzuka is out.. high potential redbull winning track.
Things are falling into place nicely. Mercedes need to focus on using Valteri to spoil Max's races.

They will be smart enough at RBR to come up with upgrades every time, now that Toto has said Bottas has agreed to help Lewis to the title, now that he no longer has a chance at the title himself.

Bottas is a very bad driver in the rain, that is well known.

Back to the team, I think ridiculous questions deserve ridiculous answers. This is an alpha move because 1 it shows you're listening, 2 it shows you have creativity, and 3 you're taking the lead. Make the interviewer appear as you want, not the other way around. You make the whole premise seem ridiculous, you balance it out with a bit of self deprecation by playing dumb, everyone has a good laugh.

It's like your ability as a race car driver is also reflected in how you deal with the media, after all, a good race car driver has a good feel for the limits.
