Re: This Is Getting Ridiculous. Felipe Massa is Looking At Legal Options Over 2008 F1 Title Outcome.

I´m Brazillian that more than 40 years follow the F1. I know this a mainly British and European users forum. Please, change the names of Massa and Hamilton in this situation, Massa was the champion that year and Hamilton was the runner-up. Do you still think the same? If you bet 100 euro in a socce...

Re: Christian Horner Allegations Thread

I can fully appreciate the Verstappen’s being anngry about Max being requested to defend Horner from sexual harassment allegations. It’s probably not in Max’s employment contract, afterall. It’s probably not the best commercial look for Max’s interests either. Horner put himself in this position, fr...

Re: Why don't we know the fuel loads of practice?

It allows underperforming Teams to get a bit of publicity, even if it’s a false representation of performance.

Practice results can usually be informally interpreted, allowing for these types of adjustments, by semi-informed followers after about half a season anyway.

Anyone find it suspicious that a lot of the team PR and Media Professionals also happen to be very attractive young women?

Call me a cynic, but it seems as though the eye candy have swapped umbrellas and sign posts for microphones.

Re: Ideas on how to avoid a repeat of Spa 2021?

If the Weather Gods are insistent -reschedule the race. Ideally a day later, being Monday.

Worst case scenario - a scheduled ‘break’ weekend, alternatively Jan the subsequent year before the new season (adding a clause all contracts end a month later in such scenario).
