He took it very well.
Didn't chuck his teddy in the corner or storm off in a huff as the new 'World Champion *' had the week before!!!!
Proud of him for that.

Pity of it is. Late braking on the inside will become standard practice in 2022. Forcing someone off the track is now acceptable.

His dad was having a good word in his ear before he went back out the garage to congratulate Max, think he helped with that.

There is irony in the ending of the F1 season.

Post the race Toto Wolff and the Merc team registering their intention to appeal is where their double standards also came to the for.

On the TV during the ending of the race Wolff seem to want it to end under the Safety Car.

Yes the Race Director seems to have bent the rules BUT a few years ago the F1 Teams adopted the principle of Let Them Race rather than finishing a race under the Safety Car.

The person who initiated the adoption of the principle was ex three times F1 World Champion Niki Lauda, the Non Exec Chairman of Mercedes.

Hence the irony.

Irony and hypocrisy. Switch drivers and Wolff would be celebrating and Horner crying foul.

Hi all,

Thought I'd ask on here first rather than starting a new topic.

My Macan went in for it's first MOT this week and they've advised a new set of tyres all round.

Currently it has Pirelli P-Zeros on 20's (which I'm assuming have been on since the car was new). Should I stick with the them again or change make?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Rash

Just out of interest what mileage has it done?

On Michelin Latitude Sport 3@s I am down to 4.5 to 5 mm on my S on 20's after about 18000 of summer, autumn and spring use.

On new car deliveries, getting the Michelins seems to be judged a winner on here

I'm a Michelin fan after years with varied tyres on bikes and cars. Michelin performance and quality always seem good, often confirmed by independent reviews. I've found that they generally need less balance weights than other makes.

As you may know Porsche recommend 'N' rated tyres and so fitting these will avoid issues in future come sale, exchange or extended warranty claims.

I'm not sure what N rated means but would stick to it if it can be a potential warranty issue.

Are N rated tyres available from Kwik Fit and the likes or do I have to go to Porsche?
