Yeah, but that was an agonizing watch to see Verstappen come in to snatch pole away

I agree, though I'm getting more numb to it over time. The exact scenario has happened too many times this season alone. He's actually just too good.

Maybe in 2029 or whatever when his contract runs out and he goes to WEC we can have competition at the front again. For now we just have to accept we can't have nice things. Unless those things are Max winning from pole. We can have plenty of that.
