This is the problem with big tarmac run off areas. A surface there that slows you down punishes the driver and no one has to investigate or intervene. But tarmac is so handy for painting lurid advertising on, isn't it? Also, cities tend to get a little tiddled if you chuck a load of gravel or grass...

Why cant you say Hamilton? Because others were much more deserving. Once Rosberg's car puked and died, the race was gifted to Hamilton unless he screwed up. There were many other drivers who had to overcome greater obstacles, fight harder, did better, and were more inspirational. Hamilton could hav...

So now its know that the ban was instituted by Bernie, purely for "spicing up" the show, is anyone going to backtrack on it being a great idea

?

Don't forget the fia have cameras on all the cars. Mostly on the top of the hoop. So the fia can see what the dashboard displays are saying to the driver. I would actually go further and get rid of the delta screen and the displays. Run the cars like they used too. Speedo. Rev counter. Fuel gauge. ...

I do know that FE cars are limited to something like 210 kph at the moment specifically so people wouldn't do comparisons with other series. I believe their 0-60 speed is similar to a GP2 car though.

Surely this would be "aiding the driver" anyway

Watched the race on record as I was not waking up at 9am after a Friday night out; Good racing, the weird music during the race was irritating as f**k, good commentary team although I only realised it was Dario after the race had finished as I fast-forwarded through all the pre-race stuff :blush: . ...

Just watched the race after recording it (9:00 after a Friday night out wasn't going to happen :lol: ) Was Heidfeld ever going to make the corner? He was carrying SO much speed... If he wasnt then its an even more stupid thing to do, let Heidfeld go sliding on up the inside while you brake earlier ...

Yes, I know what unaided means, thanks. But I also know what context is. If that rule should be interpreted to include e.g. the lollipop man then I'm curious as to why you think it hasn't been challenged before now? I think it's silly to suggest that anybody involved in a pit stop should be conside...

It is aid. Since driver is supposed to know fuel flow, tyre pressure why he shouldn't know when to pit or about the traffic without any aid? Where is the difference?

That's exactly aid. team is allowed to impo The rules just contradict themselves or/and don't fit real world. Unless FIA completely ban all kind commutations, this will be very selective applying of own that rule. By that interpretation you could argue that the drivers should change their own wheel...

Pedrosa_4_Ever

how the hell will they enforce this? teams can easily just come up with coded messages, or maybe even come up with a way to send messages to the drivers via the steering wheel . The line of what is allowed and what isn't is so unclear its untrue, and what will the punishment be for disobeying? Main...

I've also thought a lot less of astronauts because they get guidance on how to use their ridiculously complicated machine from the ground. Seriously, why is it such a bad thing? You might argue the same for traction control. It was banned because the feeling was that drivers should make more of a d...

Because banning team orders really stopped teams using them too.

What happens if theres a part electronic failure and a driver needs to reset part of the systems? Does that mean the engineer is not allowed to talk the driver through the system?

On what grounds?

You could easily put a message like "overtake button out of turn 3" or "brake later turn 1" on it, isn't that pretty much what they're banning with the radio messages?

Why? Pitboards have always been there, right from the start. This idea of telling drivers how to drive through a little earpiece has not.

I think aid given in real time is implied. i don't think it's that strange. I don't really see the objection to this, if I'm honest. Can we really be saying that we'd rather a driver was told which line to take and where to brake, rather than let them use their own skill to work it out for themselv...

Unless they've secretly installed RC controls, the drivers are always driving alone and unaided. What a bunch of *Definitely True*.... Depends on how you define "unaided"..

Cant help but wonder if it is to do with the myth of a perception that Nico uses the Engineer to beat Lewis. I ve never seen a reg without a proposal and effective immediately.
