[LM24] Max says some things

[Badlands99]

So Max Verstappen says that he won't enter Le Mans until BOP is sorted ......
Guess that means more in his favour!
He is going to have to learn that WEC is not about him or his lofty aspirations .....
Actually, just stay in F1 mate ......'cause we really don't need/want a Prima Dona like you!

[kartman24]

Well said Badlands, not a team player, look how he treats his team mate when asked.........

He said bop and drivers weights. That's not asking for it to favkr him. It's an actual legitimate argument because a difference in 10kg is worth a chunk of time. I'd like to see him do Le Mans though

They scheduled the Canadian GP for the same weekend as Le Mans next year . As long as the calendars continue to clash, it is unlikely.

I agree it would be great to get someone like him here. The profile of the championship is on the up. That would be a nice cherry on top. Mick Schumacher has a brought a new audience to Le Mans.

Perhaps something to talk about between last year’s and next year’s? Without ruining that thread.


Sent from Le Mans

[Aysedasi]

Maybe. Worth a nanosecond of anyone's time!

[chunterer]

So is Max referring to the team he was supposed to be entering in GT3 level racing, not racing himself?

[S griffin]

Didn't know he was supposed to be entering a team. But he'll probably enter as a driver once he finishes in F1

As long as the orangE army that follows him aroun d stays away, the thought of thousands of idiots letting off orange flares blocking the view of the fans is something i do not want to see at le mans

[Aysedasi]

You mean, 'I don't want to see at Le Mans again.......'

2005 (ironic, eh - a flag for the dad...) and 2006.

Could that not also be levelled at the Rossi fans that have come to WEC races? Genuine question; if the VR46 crowd have behaved then more power to them.

[GT6]

Yes but they do not have a history of letting off flares that block the view of the race for everyone

Noticeable only by T-Shirts.

And one of the biggest stalls there was pretty much dedicated to Rossi. Very impressive.

Good to hear. I remember going to MotoGP races in Rossi's heyday and it was not a particularly comfortable/safe place to be at times ... especially when Lorenzo/Marques were on the scene.

This. I saw no unruly behaviour whatsoever other than near fisticuffs in T17 when people who wouldn't sit down at the start were pulled back forcibly in their seats by people in the row behind....

[S griffin]

Le Mans fans are very well behaved from what I hear. So no surprise there
