Turns the evidence is pretty clear that Checo did crash on purpose... see for yourself. The Monaco race was before his contract for the following year was secure, making it extra likely he did.... I guess he saw the opportunity and went for it, who wouldn't want to win in Monaco, at that point it looked like it was going to be his only chance.

Just an amateur can look at the telemetry throttle input and know that was on purpose... these guys are like robots, every input is identical for hundreds of laps, mistakes don't happen like that.
I get the Max hate, but the idea that he is more of a cunt than the others, or more cut throat, etc... No even close... there is only 20 spots in F1, you think they all aren't like that? You think nice drivers make to F1 and succeed? Max is the best at the moment and he know is. He is angry Perez did that during the Monaco weekend, and even more that Red Bull accepted it and even gave him the preferential race strategy nevertheless...
He wants Red Bull to basically never give Perez preferential treatment, as any other top driver would and has done. I'm guessing he is testing the team and putting his foot down now the championships are secure, you want me to drive your car? "Never give my teammate any preference."
Obviously, I like racing, so I don't like that, but who would blame Max or any other driver for wanting that, especially considering the talent he has and all the other teams that want to snatch him. Anyways speaking of other drivers that would have done that and have done that, Alonso had such a great race, awesome passes!

He even got his wish with a defeated Felipe Massa as his teammate, literally being there at Ferrari just to help Alonso.... this is nothing new.
