Is this my obligatory get the babies out there racing because they are being babies and don't want to race in a little bit of rain.

I have a funny feeling max is going to do a max and shepherd Lewis to the outside of the track at turn 1. Like he likes to do. Over speed into turn 1. Much like imola 2021 or brazil 2021.

Re: de Vries sacking - Fair or not?
My opinion.
He shouldn't have been given the AT seat in the first place.
Not that I think he is a bad driver. I just don't think that NDV was the right fit for the red bull family of drivers. He should have stayed with toto and put him in the Williams next year and kick albon out.

What are the actual rules if a driver pops for doping? In a lot of sports they retrospectively take titles away years, even sometimes decades afterward. I am sure that you can nullify titles when it turns out that the respective driver/team broke the rules to win it. So, if evidence about a Masi/RB...

Slow Zones would negate the majority of SC situations whilst still allowing racing around three-quarters or more of the circuit.
