Re: Christian Horner Allegations Thread

Re: Abu Dhabi 2021 - How has it left you feeling?

I haven't seen many races in past 3 or 4 years, but since liberty media took over F1 I've got a feeling that too often entertainment is factor when some decisions are made. That "let then race" attitude is what brought us this controversy. It's not F1 that I used to watch. As for the race I'm kinda ...

Re: Mercedes Lodge Multiple Protests Against Result

Feels to me that an overarching discretion allowing the race director to ensure safety on track is being leveraged to allow disregard for rules and procedures as written in favour of what is good for the show . It doesn't sit well with me. That rule certainly wasn't written with entertainment in mi...

No I don't think so.

In this sense you have to give credit to BMW. It was their actual factory team, but they kept Sauber in the name during their years of the partnership.

Run offs.

You can put spectators inside the oval. Or around it just a bit further away on some pillars so there is plenty space for run offs.

Re: Ricciardo's future: Another Hamilton, or another Alonso?

Dan just had enough. He is bringing more points to the team and despite that he was going to get paycut while his teammate got lucrative contract. Renault is very serious about F1, I believe in 2 years it can challenge for wins on regular basis.
