That’s exactly what I’m thinking. Let’s not forget the issues between Horner and Marko last season as well, and Marko isn’t afraid to throw punches. Just imagine if that’s what’s going on and they get Horner canned, and then the new heads of RB make good on their assessment of f1 being too costly a...

A female employee hence why it's so serious, I can't say that I like Horner but I hope it's not true. Initially I'd heard it was due to him sending a revealing picture of himself but I dug deep last night and from all I read that wasn't true, and that the female employee didn't agree with Horner's ...

These things hardly ever ends well... most likely he is gone... Yeah I agree but this is all a little weird to me. So lets try & join the dots here. - Female employee lodges a complaint against Horner. The reason for the complaint is unconfirmed though said to be not sexual in nature but instead co...

Some F1 Academy updates 1) Points confirmed as per AmpedAnt's excusive earlier 2) Some wildcard entries for local drivers at the hosting circuit 3) Drivers can only do 2 seasons 2 and 3 I think are great, The points I'm still not so sure about. I'm not sure the talent pools big enough to sustain th...

Just to throw this out there, Joe Saward on Twitter this morning: It has long been believed that Christian Horner and Adrian Newey have contracts that protect one another. If one leaves the other can as well. This has never been confirmed - but it makes for an interesting dynamic if something was t...

Apparently the complaint revolves around his "aggressive management style" , which to me hints at a workplace bullying & harassment issue. https://www.msn.com/en-au/sport/other/red-bull-investigating-f1-team-s-christian-horner-over-alleged-misconduct-toward-team-employee/ar-BB1hOiZB?ocid=msedgdhp&pc...

As someone who's colorblind, I've struggled for years to follow who said what in nested quotes as I found it real difficult to differentiate between the shades of the quotes.

This article indicates the accusation may have come as a result of some sort of internal power struggle involving Horner https://www.foxsports.com.au/motorsport/formula-one/f1-2024-red-bull-boss-christian-horner-under-investigation-over-allegations-of-inappropriate-behaviour-report-details-power-str...

Great predictions Mate. Piastri or Alonso would be tasty. Lawson due to his lack of experience will go to Visa App first & then only Red Bull. BTW, as per many rumours, Alonso could find himself in the running for the 2nd seat at Mercedes. I tells ya, reading this bolded cr*p is going to drive me a...

No doubt Perez is a goner after this season ends. Who's your money on for '25? If Red Bull can scoop up any kind of real talent from another team, the team might try its hand at that given that Verstappen can do almost all the scoring by himself if the car is fast enough. So that would presently be...

That's great if it happens. It will be amazing tbh. I think it is very unlikely given Verstappen's very high levels of performance. So the accusations of an unfair playing field will continue to the rounds until Verstappen retires. No doubt Perez is a goner after this season ends. Who's your money ...

Jezza13

Forget Perez....whoever comes in his place will be allowed to fairly battle Verstappen? Literally everyone. Red Bull’s 2014 season is all you need to know that the team does not protect anyone. Deliver and the team will back you. The harsh reality is that every other driver will have a hard time be...

Most likely it was just that Albon was not ready at the time, not that he lacks the skills (and also Hamilton helped alot !) And, if RedBull also agrees, it will only take some sweet talking to convince Albon. It would be madness for any midfield driver to reject an RB offer... There's a lot of bro...

Jezza13

You don't see what's in it for either party? For Red Bull Albon is probably the second best driver available behind Sainz (excluding Alonso). For Albon he gets to drive the best car on the grid. Only other "top option" is Mercedes. Red Bull already know that Albon isn't good enough. No driver in re...

Jezza13

Albon to Red Bull is just something I don't see happening. I don't see what's in it for either party. I think Red Bull will be willing Ricciardo to beat Tsunoda (they don't seem to think Tsunoda is good enough for Red Bull) so they can just put him back in the car. You don't see what's in it for ei...

I just tried it on % of max constructor points available and if my sums are right, McLaren take it for '1988 again with

1988 McLaren (199/240) = 83%
2023 RBR (860/1058) = 81%

Interesting to hypothesize what RB's tally would be had they had a driver pairing comparative to McLaren 1988.

They should get rid of Spa, Silverstone and Sao Paulo and replace them (and all the other ones not mentionned) by something more interesting along the Avenue Louise, Thames Embankments and Copacabana beach... How about getting rid of Suzuka for Downtown Osaka https://www.gpfans.com/en/f1-news/10112...

Please show me where I keep stating the opposite (it is the first time I mentioned the "any/all" thing), otherwise please stop posting nonsense.

I don't see any reason why you could believe I'm being dishonest in defending Michael Masi.

Speaking of the turn 5 pass, & i'm probably way late to the party on this, but i've only just seen this angle of the pass & it wasn't as clean as I always thought it was. 0lh1qfoRk88 I agree that it's difficult to understand why Hamilton didn't go more defensive into the turn but even if he had, suc...

Secondly, the final racing lap, enabled by the race director did not change the outcome of the championship. A legal overtake on that final lap did. Had you said that the championship was influenced by the deployment of the SC (instead of saying that it decided the championship), I would have agree...

Jezza13

The bold part of the underlined bit is new to me. Do you have a source where I can find that Michael Masi admitted to that? It's not in the stewards' report on the Mercedes protest, it is not in the official executive FIA report on the investigation, and post-investigation he was under a non-disclo...

That is just a play on words as you wish. There is always someone involved and decides what to do on an incident VSC or SC or red flag ? Which is mostly random decisions. We see decisions changing to SC after VSC, red flag after SC, etc, etc... and in between drivers lose places. and again someone ...

He also only removed the cars that stood between Hamilton & Verstappen, implementing a procedure of his own design, that had never been used before that night. That indicates his intent to stage a last-lap shoot-out between the two title protagonists, which, thanks to Verstappen having new tyres, w...

Jezza13

Not saying it is ideal, but in a given F1 season, we see many randomly picked VSC, SC, red flag+restart, red flag+SC start situations which gain some and lose some. This was not very different, which kind of confirmed with quickly dropped appeals. No need to make so much noise... The problem here i...

Why would they do any of these ? Idea was to let the WDC contenders race to the end. You may not like it but like I say before there is at least a reason behind it to let most viewers get some enjoyment. If we are going by what-if's, we can also say, Masi and officials didn't do their job and clean...

Jezza13

I don't look to blame Hamilton, I'm pointing out that not defending the inside of the corner where Verstappen passed, was a serious mistake. And that mistake means the decision to go racing again wasn't what altered the championship, it was a successful overtake that did that. I don't understand wh...

Does anyone still look at this part of the forum during the off season? If so, I’m here to try and canvass your opinion.

I've also begrudgingly accepted that Verstappens a very, very good driver, though until he does what Vettel dared to do & leaves the safe & comfy environs of RB & gets out there to challenge himself, i'll never rate him up there with the Sennas, Prosts, Schumachers & Hamiltons of this world.
