What do you think about DeLigt situation?

One of the most valued defenders in the world already skipped 5 games because Tuchel does not want him.

Will he leave Bayern this January?

RBR seems back in its position but Ferrari at the moment its clearly the second team in the grid.

Tomorrow we finally have the answer if RBR got a nerf or not with the latest updates from FIA.

Whatever he can say...

At the end of the season he will leave the team so he will says only good things for the team.

Max is back, Ferraris confirm their strength.

Remember remember this will be the last Champions League as you know it.

From the next year, we will have a new format.

2 mega groups of 16 teams with 8 random games player.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024%E2%80%9325_UEFA_Champions_League

Fun, terrible fact.

They did the math and the impact of the accident with Stroll the past week was at the force of 50G.

This is impressive, I'm not sure that a normal human (not f1 athlete with huge neck muscles) can survive at it.

Friday 22nd September
Salernitana 17:30 Frosinone
Lecce 19:45 Genoa

Saturday 23rd September
AC Milan 14:00 Verona

No big games this week

!st small info for the weekend, it should be almost for sure a weekend without any drop of rain.

What a save from Lautaro for Inter.

Luckily for them, their group is very weak and they will have no problems.-

already 3-0 for Barca in the 1st half, so it will be easy.

Underwhelming result for Milan Newcastle.

Ferrari was quite strong a few years ago in Japan.

It will be an interesting weekend to see if RBR will be nerfed after the last change of rules or not.

4-0 for Roma and it is not over yet.
By the way, I've just seen Atalanta, they lost again this time versus Fiorentina.

This happens when they keep destroying the team, selling the best players, and keeping the money.

Their owner is just a money grabber.

As I said 10 days ago FIA can change the regulation whenever they want, like they did in 2019 nerfing the Mercedes.

Next week we will have a hyper-aerodynamic track at Suzuka in Japan.

We will see if the new rule is a damage for the RBR or if they just had a bad week.

He deserved the win for sure.

About the most entertaining race of the season, depends.
We went in good races in the past too but with rain and a lot of overtakes.

This one was for sure the most tactical we got, but here is almost impossible to overtake.

3-0 after the 1st half for Roma.

Empoli is very weak team, he will be for sure in Serie B at the end of the season.

Well was necessary.

If Leclerc waited 1 more lap without the double pit he was entering in last position.

I've seen nothing wrong there.

Good control of the race for Sainz.
Leclerc got unlucky with the safety car otherwise it was an easy 1-2.


Next week we will have the answer, if Redbull is slow then the change made from FIA, nerfed them.

As I was saying some days ago FIA can change the rules whenever they want.
This weekend they changed a rule for the control of the deflection of the wings, RBR needed to change them and we got bad results.

The next GP we will know if they removed the dominance of the RBR or if it was just a case.


And yes it was a grey area used mostly by RBR.

More points were lost by Napoli and they were lucky.

As I told you, they past year they did a miracle like Leichester years ago...
