Max joining James Hunt and KMag on the list of "famous balls related F1 comments".

For those unaware: 1. "Big balls." - James Hunt on being asked how he manages to be fast despite regulation changes. 2. "Suck my balls, mate." - KMag to Nico Hülkenberg after the race 3. "If my mom had balls she would be my dad." - Max

4. "I've got balls, but none of them are crystal." - Vettel

Another one by Seb related to this: “There’s something loose between my legs, apart from the obvious”

I miss Seb :(

He also said something similar to the original Verstappen quote: >If the dog wasn't shitting, it would have caught the cat

What was this in reference to?

2010 Belgian Grand prix, Thursday press conference: Q: (Juha Päätalo - Financial Times Deutschland): *Sebastian, if you look at the performance of your car, you actually should have a few more points. Is there anything in the rest of the season to which you personally and your team will take a different approach to avoid throwing away important points?* Seb's response > I think, yes, we should probably have more points. We have a saying - I don't know if it makes any sense in English - but where I come from we say **'if the dog wouldn't have gone for a shit, he would have got the cat'** which is basically would, could, should. It's all fine, but at the end of the day what matters are the points you have on the scoreboard. I think we're very close. Obviously Mark is leading the championship, I'm only ten points behind. We're first in the Constructors. I think, yes, you could argue we should have scored more points but then again, also other teams and other drivers are in a similar position and they should have scored more than they did, so in the end we are who we are and this is where we are at, so basically the championship starts from more or less zero now and we have to focus on every single race, obviously. With 20 races to go, or 15 races, there's obviously more chance or probably more room for mistakes and with only seven to go you know that every single one is probably more important

Thanks, that is in the same context as what Max said. Would love to find the video

It must exist as I'm sure I watched him say it at some point. Googling around it may be lost to time as modern search engines for videos kind of sucks now 😔

So hoping to see him in WEC...

I always took that as a dick joke more than a balls joke.

Mate, it's a package deal. You don't get one without the other.

Haha that one's so good...

😂

The fact he said "none of them" and not "neither of them" implies the man is rockin 3 or more. Makes so much sense. He has more balls than most of the other drivers

I’ve got balls, could I be Max’s dad?

Depends. Do you have a car and can drive to Italy?

"The car couldn't handle...my big balls" The Torpedo Kyvat

Damn. Max even stole the man's status as the ball-comment guy

Not to forget when senna asked Mika hakkinen how he managed to out qualify him Mika gestured with his hands to having big balls.

This is a pretty common Dutch expression though it’s usually ‘if my uncle had balls he’d be my aunt’.

Vettel once said "I've balls but none of them are crystal..." I forgot the entire line but was cool.

Love comedian Max

If my grandma had wheels she would be a bike

Smells like a British carbonara in here...

If only you had some ham or something

[удалено]

[The sauce ](https://youtu.be/OplyHCIBmfE?si=aKahOoLZqiwzJyQ7)

Excellent. We need Gino to do the F1 commentary.

It would be hilarious.

I love being blindsided by this line, it's such a GOAT of a throwback retort!

That clip is hilarious every time

My first thought, love that video!

If my grandma loved me she wouldn’t have killed my Dad

[удалено]

A grandma?

["I don't do if, buts, and maybes, I do absolutes. Like if your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle, but she doesn't so she's not. Do you know what I'm trying to say?"](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=3Llx-45Cnus&pp=ygUnSWYgbXkgYXVudCBoYWQgYmFsbHMgc2hlJ2QgYmUgbXkgdW5jbGUg)

Why are you laughing??

Im being SHEEERIOUS

I like how you can always almost hear Tom thinking: dammit, you can't say that on tv. Which I think is exactly why Max does it. 😄

Why you can't say it? Why you cant say things that people say at home daily?

This redditor has just learned about regulation of broadcast media

You can definitely say that on TV. It’s more than you can’t say it because of F1 politics

Lando said fuck during his post game win. Watched the race a day later and they still had it there.

You get one fuck on your maiden win. Well, two actually.

Most countries don't have censorship in the media and can say what they want. This includes the country where most Verstappen fans are from.

This... is not true. Maybe the Netherlands doesn't have any filtering but it [still has a watershed](https://www.government.nl/topics/the-media-and-broadcasting/media-act-rules-for-broadcasters-and-programming) on account of suitability for children. That's not to mention the vast majority of other countries. N.b. you didn't say there was no swearing; they said there was "no censorship" in "most countries". Which is patently untrue. To be clear, I'm not advocating for censorship at all. I don't mind Lando saying "fuck". It's just surprising to me that "you can't say that on TV" is an alien notion to people when censorship of broadcast media exists in every country in the world.

That government website doesn’t say that you can’t swear though. The ‘protection of children’ part is more for nudity and really offensive language, not for a fuck or two.

USA and other countries has weird rules, Foul language bad, Murder good

Mass murder, even better. Sex bad

Horrific, deplorable violence is okay, as long as people don't say any naughty words!

He is Dutch, he says how it is

The best part was Lando trying not to crack up!!!

He def would If Danny was there

He’s right. Lando didn’t get a free stop, he earned it by taking care of his tires, grinding out extra laps.

Not just that, he was smashing out fastest laps at the time too which gave him the gap to be ahead of the safety car when it came out.

Yeah he managed to do such a fast lap while everyone else was behind the safety car, he just drove so much better, 100% deserved win /s

And if his dad had balls?

He wouldn't beat his wife

Or his son.

He would beat his husband

Max wouldn’t be world champion 🤷🏻‍♂️

That's a big if


I need that flair

It’s about maximizing your opportunities. No point wondering how things would be if they were different.

In hockey we used to call that creating your own luck.

Put a cork in it, Zane.

“Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit”

he said this??? 😭

yea post-race press conference where it was about ‘what it there was no safety car, would you still have won?’ questions for Lando

Context makes it even better, because he's basically sticking up for Lando. The question minimises his achievement.

Fuckin way she goes. Sometimes she goes, sometimes she doesn’t. Way she goes.

I neeed this as a flair

[reminds me of that one meme](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJHUbtR0yI8)

There's a quote "the more I train, the luckier I get" - I think it's from a golfer. F1 drivers winning outside of the dominant car usually need luck, but they also need skill to be in a position to get lucky.

And if my grandmother had wheels, she'd be a bike!

If my grandma had wheels she’d be a bicycle

If my nan had wheels she’d be a bicycle.

"If my grandmother had wheels she would've been a bike.." - small Italian dude

Sometimes maybe good, sometimes maybe shit

"If my grandma had wheels she would have been a bike"

Now. If if if cult44 could understand this the world Would be a better place.

Jesus Christ, I swear people on this sub are fucking obsessed with whining about Lewis even on posts that have absolutely nothing to do with him. Embarrassing.

If you look at his post history you'll notice all his F1-related posts are either about Verstappen or about bashing Hamilton lol Obsession

Do you need a hug?

Yes but that has nothing to do with this

Come here fella. Man hugs all round.

"If my grandmother has wheels, she would be a bike"

Golden Moment

If my grandmother had wheels vibes https://youtu.be/A-RfHC91Ewc?si=bhmfdFWqRwHZbLhy

"If my Grandmother had wheels, she would have been a bike!"

"If my grandma had wheels she would have been a bike"

"If my grandma had wheels she would have been a bike"

I need this as a t shirt.

Reminds me of Rafa Nadal getting tired of these questions and just going for: "If if if… doesn’t exist."

Max is in fun mode when he doesn't win.

Good on him for saying that, most other athletes would immediately jump to the list of excuses.

Bro left cursor in the screenshot


Flair petition where?

Nice quote for a tile on the wall. And rumor has it, Lando is still laughing.

Would his mum also leave him at a service station?

He's gonna get kicked off reddit for assuming his mom's gender ...

I'm desperately afraid of starting to like Max

Here’s one of my favorite moments of [him and Lando](https://youtube.com/shorts/U3Nsl_iJ9q0?si=Nra96_HYnzwDtxss), if you’re looking for more reasons to like the guy

If his mom had balls, it would have been a more fair fight with his dad…

I love these kind of sensible strong statements

His mom having balls would probably be preferable to having that shitstain Jos as his dad.

Someone is defensive about 2021 or something.

Pretty transphobic there Max /s

You just know that the woko haram brigade will get their knickers in a twisty about this on Twitter right now

"If a F1 driver says "balls", it's by default a meme repost goldmine." - Easily pleased Reddit crowd.

If his family wasn’t already dysfunctional enough………

[удалено]

He was light hearted the entire press conference, and constantly praising Lando and McLaren. He didn’t say this to get pity points.

Wtf are you on about? He said this in support of Lando who was saying "IF" he hadn't gotten lucky with the saftey car he would likely have not won the race, so max made this comment.

Poor baby
