Race 20 - Mexican GP 2024 [Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez]

[The Black Knight]

Williams has shown some signs of life the latter part of this year. Should that continue it might be a consistent mid field team next year and not such a bad place to be.

Williams have made it clear that they are going to sacrifice 2025 development to concentrate on 2026 so I doubt they’ll be anywhere.

Considering Schumacher got a race ban for doing something similar, l think Verstappen received a light punishment of 20 seconds. With four races to go and Ferrari on the up, Verstappen still has a chance to hang on to win the 2024 driver's championship. It would be his hardest, and the only real battle he has had to win a championship. Whatever happens, he would have properly earned the respect of everyone.

Zach Brown went to celebrate Sainz's win with Ferrari. It made me wonder what would have been if Sainz was still in the McLaren racing this season. I think he may have been the lead McLaren chasing down Verstappen. I would hazard a guess that he may have been further ahead and closer to Verstappen at this stage than Norris. Then again, that would not be surprising as Sainz is a more experienced driver than Norris. He has gone toe to toe with Verstappen in the Torro Rosso. Hence, it would been quite a spectacle to watch.
