This week's group chat: Max signs through 2030 then crashes out on Lap 1 of his own final home race, Isack Hadjar breaks his wrist and history repeats itself, Cadillac quietly axes their team principal mid-season, and everyone's calling Lando's title fight "reignited" — except me.
Solo episode, recorded from Tuscany because apparently that's where Paddock 43 happens now.
