Tested using last year’s car. This year’s car is completely different… and worse.

Fairly certain the issue here has been the context in which Piquet used the word that has put him in trouble. Of course context matters.

Umm, what?
How is this a case of fighting fire with fire with Piquet having to deal with then consequences of his actions?
Riker commented on the post, Piquet gets F1 paddock ban after apologising to Hamilton but denying use of racial slur 1 month, 1 week ago
Then why is the majority opinion/comments from Brazil saying that what Piquet said was offensive? Context matters quite a lot.

Showing your ignorance.
Especially with this comment:
An ultra privileged person like Hamilton has next to zero in common with the original people it was aimed at, other than skin colour….You clearly h […]

What the states will do will effectively be a ban. To not recognise that is ignorance.

Prevention is better than suffering.
That is why the FIA need to issue a ruling. To force teams to do the right thing by their drivers.
If RBRs bouncing is within safety regulations then it’s not a problem.
Riker commented on the post, FIA issues new technical directive to reduce 'porpoising' on safety grounds 1 month, 3 weeks ago
Good.
I’ve said it in previous comments that the FIA had to do something about this because it is a driver safety issue (something that could cause impact not just now – but lead to medical complications even […]

You need to do some reading. Go read up what happened with players in the NFL regarding head injuries.
It wasn’t the teams that paid compensation. It was the NHL. As the body responsible for the regulations they […]

Except they are looking at adjusting the calendar to do races in groups based on location, which will actually reduce transport costs because they wouldn’t be going back and forth across the globe.
So that kind […]

It is, quite simply, a health and safety issue at this point.
The FIA need stipulate the maximum vertical impact/load teams can impart on their drivers. Breaches of this should receive a fine because it could […]

Fairly certain the cars in WRC are very different to the “very fast karts” of F1. So that’s not an accurate comparison at all.

You mean the same Horner who complained for 7-8 years and had rules changed because they couldn’t design a car to compete with the Mercedes? That Horner?

Well, as mentioned on Sky just now, apparently it was due to an over-ambitious setup (so not RICs fault – set up comes down to the engineer) as commented by Seidl. It was interesting in the McLaren App they […]

He would’ve stayed 11th, no? The two Alpines worked together to ensure that I’m pretty sure.
