LawVS - The Ladder Man

This weekend was made for Ferrari, almost literally.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsAs the 2027 regulations fall over themselves, Ferrari's found itself in a situation where the conditions for the 2026 Monaco Grand Prix in terms of the controversial F1 engines for this year COULD be to their advantage. Mercedes are nerfed for one night only and this could be a chance for either Charles Leclerc or Lewis Hamilton might get one over their rivals before the ADUO comes to help them...or not.Let's discuss that as well as who could win this weekend's race and how I did last race in Montreal?F1 NERFS Monaco's Engines, Here's My Top 5https://youtu.be/Bfwk2Djt5Yw

I'm not calling a full-on intra-team drama yet...but the contract might hint toward it.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMercedes re-signed both drivers last October and everyone read it the same way. Russell the senior man, Antonelli the project...but for only 2026...Now the reporting since suggests two very different deals in the same garage. Whilst the Verstappen door everyone watched looks shut, the leverage that door created is still sitting right there in the Mercedes paperwork. What does Toto do with a leash he no longer strictly needs?#f1 #mercedesf1 #georgerussell #kimiantonelli #totowolff #formula1 #f1news #verstappen #mercedesamgf1 #f1latest #f1updates #f1drama #f1gossip Toto Wolff Just Trapped His Own Driverhttps://youtu.be/3oGNGPIKX3U

A New York court spent two years trying to work out who actually runs Williams.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsThe official story is simple, folks. Dorilton Capital bought the team in 2020 and saved it from dissolution. Its lead man Matthew Savage has been the public face...but then a court record started using very different words about that...and now there might have been MORE figures in charge. Now F1 has a test built to vet exactly this kind of situation...but did anyone ever actually use it here? I don't know. And if not, WHY NOT?The Williams Owner Nobody's Allowed To Namehttps://youtu.be/tlx2sb-1Ly8

The FIA boss says he was unopposed...but now he wants to rule forever.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsYou heard me, folks. Ben Sulayem wants to SCRAP the limit of the presidency he occupies...already! However, there are two more changes tabled too...ones which make opposing him that much harder to pull off...so why are the people with the most to lose, the drivers, the teams, F1 itself not shouting out loud about this?

Really? Valtteri Bottas is getting axed from Cadillac after five races? Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsValtteri Bottas and Sergio Perez are yet to score...and yet only one of them is at risk of losing their seat...ALREADY. Colton Herta is the named replacement...but he's still short of the FIA superlicense points required to race in Formula 1. And if Herta doesn't get there, the answer may already be in the building...and Ferrari might want to get in on it with not only Zhou Guanyu...but also Rafael Camara.#f1 #valtteribottas #sergioperez #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #cadillac #cadillacf1 #f1news #f1latest #f1sillyseason #f1updates #f1drama #f1drivers #f1driver #f1newstoday #bottas #checoperez Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff Bottas AXED From Cadillac After Five Races??

McLaren backed Lando Norris and got the trophy. Then Oscar Piastri said Red Bull interest is 'flattering.'Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMcLaren's 2025 settlement is now costing them as the team is not winning...at all. Norris said in Melbourne he'd retire from Formula 1 rather than leave McLaren. Then Piastri called Red Bull interest 'flattering' before Canada. And Zak Brown's 'contracts aside' answer to The Athletic does more work than anyone noticed...that perhaps the bill from last year isn't fulfilling the deal made with number 81. When you then consider the McLaren orange machine now spans F1, IndyCar, WEC GTs, an incoming Hypercar programme, F1 Academy and golf?! Yeah, things are I think suffering. McLaren is too thin.#f1 #oscarpiastri #landonorris #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #mclarenf1 #mclaren #papayarules #zakbrown #f1teams #f1team #f1drivers #f1driver #f1cars #f1drama #f1gossip #f1news #f1latestGet 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffCan't watch the ladder?

Welcome to the new McLaren-Red Bull war.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsSo Red Bull's team principal, Laurent Mekies, sat next to Stella at the FIA press conference in Canada and repeated the Lambiase team principal claim. Again. Three weeks after he'd already said it in Miami. So much for peace between teams then...why did he do that? Well, this encounter tells me that how Mekies duels with McLaren and how Horner duelled with McLaren are two very different things. Andrea Stella and Zak Brown must prepare for a new strategy from their recent rivals. Because those biscuits of theirs? They're NEW!#f1 #redbullracing #mclarenf1 #formula1 #formulaone #f12026 #canadiangp #canadagp #zakbrown #laurentmekies #andreastella #landonorris #mclarenf1team #f1news #f1latest #f1updates #f1drama #f1gossip Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #adcastoreaff Red Bull Just SHATTERED McLaren's Playbookhttps://youtu.be/rQQ1PNJ01rM

What happens when the gods get involved with George Russell?Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsGeorge Russell's chances of a world title took a major blow thanks to his F1 car's battery conking out on him whilst Kimi Antonelli secured a record-making fourth win in a row. Meanwhile, the old titans Hamilton and Verstappen duked it out for second in polished fashion whilst Franco Colapinto NAILED another points finish for Alpine...and as for McLaren?
