Kimi winning the championship would be insane with a bit of luck of course like today's pit stop.

Max Verstappen says he is considering his future in Formula 1 after finishing eighth in the Japanese Grand Prix.

The Red Bull driver said he was "not enjoying the whole formula" following changes to the engine rules this season.

Asked in an interview with BBC Sport whether that meant he was going to walk away at the end of the season, he said: "That's what I'm saying. I'm thinking about everything inside this paddock.

Id rather him win it than Russell, Russell comes across as a moaner a bit like Max and he's always quick to complain on the radio.

Lucky pitstops always happen due to a safety car, it was really bad luck that Russell got called in just before it.

That brought a smile to my face being called in lol I'm with you on that although I find Russell cringe.

I just wish Max would stop threatening and just quit, the sport is big enough to miss him

I can't see him quiting, if he was at the front of the pack it would be a slightly different story, he's also not going to pass up on a £50 million base salary anytime soon because there is a chance Mercedes may sign him next year, but I hope not.

Saying all that the regulations need a serious change in the next few races so the cars can race properly and not run out of battery at the end of a straight.

I guess he will have 12 months gardening leave so this is great planning.

It's now been confirmed he will be Chief racing officer at McLaren reporting into Andrew Stella.
