Re: Female Racing Drivers

There is no question in my mind a woman can be on the same level mentally to find the limit of a race car, but when I look at the women in F3 and F1A and see how little muscle they have and wonder how they think they can compete with men in the same category who are far stronger, it becomes clear t...

Re: F1 Gossip/Rumour/Inside news Thread

No MBS has said that if teams want professional stewards then the teams have to pay for them, the FIA is not paying. I know, but I disagree with him. They are FIA stewards. Why should anyone else pay them? No one else (other than the FIA) should pay them for being an F1 steward. But they certainly ...

Where is the proof that he is biased against Verstappen when making stewarding decisions and like you say he is just one of 4 stewards, he's biased apparently because he's British.
