When you have a legacy you wish to leave, no one remembers you being a nice guy or a great guy etc etc, they remember who's name sits in the record books.
Again as stated from another poster, he is looking to break records now and set them high so they hopefully wont be beaten for some time, thats typically what you do when you become the record holder. Most world records get trounced, not beaten by a 0.5% margin.
Have been saying this all along about George , debut season and beats a 7 XWC convincingly.
Lewis has looked very ordinary this season for someone who is apparently so highly rated. I bet he's missing Bottas massively lol.
Afla got fined €1k for having team personnel out of position.
This is what happened.
Is he looking to set a points record? Surely points records in F1 mean nothing as pretty much every year the championship winner will have had points handed to them by their subservient teammate, as as happened in this very season with Perez and Max "Thanks Mate" Verstappen.
I get the impression these guys might be a tiny bit competitive. Also maybe performance bonuses linked to championship points/position?I'm still trying to figure out why the drivers would even care that much about 2nd or 3rd.

Yeah but top sportsman always want to win and can’t possibly do anything else or deviate from that etc etc etc.It'd be Pérez's best ever WDC finish, and Red Bull's first ever 1-2 finish.
Yep as demonstrated by Hamilton on several occasions..Yeah but top sportsman always want to win and can’t possibly do anything else or deviate from that etc etc etc.:O Even if the person they’d be helping (Their team mate no less!) has done them some pretty huge favours in races before.
You need to start charging him rent mate.Yep as demonstrated by Hamilton on several occasions..
Like Hungary 2017?Yep as demonstrated by Hamilton on several occasions..
Uh, he already broke the points record in Mexico..Is he looking to set a points record?
Pretty much everything outside the WCC is pointless. WDC probably helps a bit with marketing and gives the drivers an individual goal.Points records a totally pointless metric anyway, points systems changed about 4 times in the time Alonso has been racing! Plus now the sprint points and FL points.

FWIW I don't actually believe him either. I'm pretty certain every single driver on the grid would want to be the best there ever was, with the most championships to their name etc. But if you (Max) said that previously on multiple occasions, then do something as drastic as what he's just done, then well I dunno, that's still just proving the point that he's more two-faced and selfish than anyone had even imagined.Anyone who believes him when he says that probably needs some magic beans on the cheap.
Lol what.....FWIW I don't actually believe him either.
