Topps 582 Montgomery Club

Box had damage, so ripped it. Looks like I might have around $300 in base when adding in some $10-15 ones not pictured. Numbered cards all seem to have some condition issues. Not sure what they will go for...

Everything should be Sapphire!!

I am loving the car parallel cards. I'm much more into the sheer engineering awesomeness of F1 than I am the personalities, so going to focus on cars for collecting purposes. Luckily those are the less preferred cards, so should be able to build a really nice collection without breaking the bank.

Not trying to be mean / rude / whatever, but there's no refueling in an F1 pit stop. Still, changing 4 wheels in under 2 seconds is damned impressive, and they go to great lengths to fine tune their pit stop performance.

Just got my box today. To rip or sell, that is the question! I know absolutely nothing about F1 Racing haha. I also knew very little about Soccer and pulled an Orange Fati from one of those sapphire boxes, so I guess we’ll see

I believe the rule was changed some time ago to no re-fueling.

Not to be rude, but thanks for the info guys.

Also got a Photo Variant in my box of Valtteri Bottas so 6 hits in my box instead of 4

Me too. I thought this set was going to be too pricey to get into, but the car cards and the secondary base cards make for nice affordable collectibles.

Valtteri Bottas #133 70th /70

Hamilton #21, #142, #150
Norris #199
Verstappen #143

Awesome box!!

[cardsforever]

I own 15 Topps/Bowman/GPK "Sapphire" boxes; I have never opened a Sapphire box, but I want to open this one.

I have zero knowledge of Formula 1.

What "names" should I be looking for?

Thanking you in advance.

BTW, my TL boxes are still "processing" from April 20th.

[okumeister]

People opening up their boxes, and I see no signs of mine coming...
The box was in NJ two days ago, thought I'd get it on that day.
Then, it skipped over my state and went to MA, now has been stuck there with no movement lol

My F1 box will be here today, and my TL boxes are still processing as well.

Here's a good reference list from this thread:

Max Verstappen is the clear #2. He has the car to challenge Hamilton. He is essentially Mike Trout.

Lando Norris is the #3 for me. He is the upstart, you guy with flair. He isnt in the best equipment but he places well. He is Wander Franco.

The other notable guys

George Russell- He is the guy who will replace Lewis Hamilton (potential retirement) or Hamiltons teammate. Think Gleyber Torres, as Jeter is retiring

Valerie Bottas- He's Hamiltons teammate, and will steal a few wins a year. Think Roger Maris.

Mick Shumacher- His dad is the Babe Ruth of F1. But he currently is in a crap car.

Yuki Tsunoda- He is in Max Verstappen teams, pilot cars. He is a rookie with a huge following in Japan, and good results in the minors. Think Julio Rodriguez.


Hopefully I F1'd to MLB'd that for you guys.

Much appreciated.

Looks like boxes are climbing already! Did we skip the dip!? Lol

Not to sound accusatory, but I don't think your thanks was 100% authentic and was dripping with sarcasm.

Did I do it right? Can we keep this chain going?

In all seriousness, that entire thread of replies injected some nice levity into this thread. Kudos to all of you polite people.

P.S. So... They used to refuel but don't refuel anymore, correct?

Makes sense, felt sorry for the pit crew when the tire is loose and the car is out of the race. That must be a lonely feeling.

Got home to my box 30 minutes ago, 29 minutes more than I thought it would last! Trying to hold!
