Mercedes and MAD MAX!!

LAS VEGAS GRAND PRIX 2024 photo credit:foxnews.com The Mercedes boys are back on top!! The Mercedes team had an unexpected 1-2 finish today and looked miles faster than the pack. It was so unbelievable that even the drivers and the team did not know how did the car become so unbelievably quick throughout the weekend.

No one expected Alpine, a team who have been slow all season and at times looked like the 9th fastest team, to finish ahead of the likes of the Ferraris, McLarens and Mercedes'. Both their drivers were sublime in the we...
