Re: Rare, Funny & Interesting F1 Pictures
Some points seem very expensive (they actually are), but how much bonus money do they bring to the team at the end of the year ? A ratio WCC bonus money/driver points should be added (not by me :-P ), taking into account the WCC positions at the same moment as the WDC positions, to get a clear idea ...
