Re: 2024 Australian Grand Prix Free Practice & Qualifying Thread
Williams don’t have a spare chassis following Albon’s big shunt in practice. From the tweet below looks like they’ll be using Sargeant’s car for Albon for the rest of the weekend. https://x.com/phortonf1/status/1771095697401446462?s=46&t=ogYVTvP780Kb_NbBode63w Not sure how I feel about that.

But the "gaming of the system" only started after Magnussen received the second penalty and his race was ruined.

Re: Christian Horner Allegations Thread
I think there's a pretty clear argument for Red Bull bringing the sport into disrepute if they're actually engaging in a coverup. It's drawn international attention at this point, and it's getting people that don't normally care about F1 to suddenly notice it in a bad light. Well, it wasn't RB that...

It could certainly be argued that it's tenuous but my understanding is that any FIA involvement would be predicated on broad disrepute provisions within the International Sporting Code: The FIA, however, has the ISC at its disposal which may force the matter. There are specific articles relating to...
