I kept saying and putting on Lauda's piece about Merc's plan and build of hybrid since 2007 and insistence to FIA to accepting it in '14. Lauda was a man for truth and fairness which is why he spoke to Monty about it..it was in his character otherwise he wouldn't sleep.
I've read Lauda's a/biography and anyone who hasn't better get reading.

Really? Lauda was trolling Monte. I was privileged to spend quite a bit of time with Lauda in 2012 at the German GP. He was a man of sly and sophisticated humor.

There is an excellent article on this by actual journalists in The Race. I have placed it here before. I suggest you find it and read it to increase your actual F1 knowledge rather than bang on about something said by Monte to cover up their own incompetence.

So congrats to Verstappen on getting a pole position in the fastest car.
Be interesting to see if he can get to the finish line first without spinning, crashing into inanimate trackside barriers or other drivers.

It didn't took long to throw the usual dirty 5H1T over MAX's drivers performance from today .

I believe you that you spent some time with Lauda, although there is no association between that and the article I mentioned and showed..

And that is the rantings of one man vs a well researched series of articles about the actual events verified by people who were there. This is the difference between evidence and hearsay. The former is actual proof and the latter goes into the category of "rantings of madmen".

Merc & Ham fans haven’t gone anywhere. We’ve already won. No point saying anything when you and your friend make up your own facts.

Amazingly smooth lab, that car is really dialed in and hooked up. Watched his hands three times in this video and other than a couple of corners, so smooth. Was also amazing, he went green in all three sectors, but purple in ZERO sectors.

There is hardly a chance for anyone else to get a post in with you and your echo flooding the forum.
You are going to need extra tissues if Verstappen wins today.

Yep thats me.
In your rush to have a go at me though you may not have noticed that Red Bull's heavily criticised second driver was only 0.325 secs from getting pole position himself over a 95 sec lap.
So its hardly a leap of logic to suggest that RB have a faster car than Mercedes at this track and in those track conditions.
But do carry on.
