How Many Races will Max Win in 2024?

[theiceman7]

OP says 20, I think that prediction is still feasible. My guess is 18 - 20.

The title looks so much closer with the tally being 7/11...

However, it would be easy to reason that without brakes issues in Australia, safety car timing in Miami, and the slow pitstop in Austria it could have been comfortable 10/11 ?

If that balance of 'luck' continues are we heading toward 15 or 16 wins for the season?

If the luck fades for the others then he still might get to 18 or 19?

It won't be easy for him to win the majority of the remaining races with Lando is such form with such car.

Well it might have looked from practise and qualifying that Austria wouldn't be an easy win ...

however, until that very unusual very slow pitstop from Red Bull, he was heading for a pretty easy win despite such Lando form and such car.

And when will the next race be?

Helmut Marko has banned Max Verstappen from taking part in late night sim races over Grand Prix weekends.

Helmut Marko warns 'no more!'

"Max Verstappen was rather thin-skinned this weekend, and of course it didn't take long for criticism to arise, no wonder, since he spends half the night playing sim racing.

"I have to say that in Imola he didn't go to bed until three in the morning after a sim racing session and then won the Grand Prix," added. "Max has a different sleep pattern, and he had his seven hours of sleep.

"His late-night sim appearance on the Hungary weekend only came about because a driver in his team had dropped out," he revealed. "Nevertheless, we agreed that he would no longer run simulations so late in the future."

So he can concentrate fully on the real stuff and he has started the race weekend perfectly at Spa as he tops the FP1 standings.

Yes, it's all noise

It would take the biggest turn around in F1 history for Max not to win 4th title.

Peeps taking 3-1 on Lando are suckers.

You're right of course, but I feel that if Checo gets a break and somehow manages to be ahead of max anytime this season, then team orders WILL be issued at Red Bull,
I also feel that there may be a little disharmony at McLaren and Oscar might not get much of a look in at getting above Lando on the podium unless there is someone else on the second spot.
