alonso joking about fia presidency

Time will tell if the ambition truly is there and if he can play his cards right. I’ve heard that he is pretty political by nature.

Alonso sounds more like a future FIA president every week. I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s aiming for that with an agenda that he will work for fans (and drivers).

Nobody here is bringing up the real safety elephant in the room: Racing F1 cars is too risky, we should ban it in the name of driver safety!

Joking aside, we are living in times when it’s trendy to eliminate […]

Great article!
although gender diversity seems lacking
I believe anybody can announce their candidacy freely. Women, step up!

Yeah.. I guess it’s all political and the end result is then whatever it is after the political battle. I suppose Gio being an Italian is a huge factor here.

Well there goes the great plan. Now it seems just stupid the way they have done this. :D Is it just because Gio is an Italian and you need to have an Italian..?

Copies are usually inferior.
@didaho but digital copies don’t deteroriate in quality. :D

If LH has criticized Saudi Arabia, I wouldn’t be surprised at all. Only one phone call from SA would be needed. To me the question is: does anybody really think SA wouldn’t do it in such a scenario.

I think Haas might work for him evem better. He’ll have a no-pressure first year in F1 as nobody expects anything from Haas this year. This can be good for him, because historically it has taken awhile for him to […]

See the second sentence of my reply, it holds answer to your question. Currently there is a rule and the discussion is about enforcing it. Many think that it’d be silly to have rules that are not enforced.

I don’t think your prejudice with Balue is racist per se. You just really don’t like him. What is weird though is the level of your “dislike”. Its all just a bit concerning Dean R. I’m worried for you. These are […]

if you drift out on the outside, who cares?
Sometimes they drift outside to make their lap times faster so they do it for the same reason they would do cutting corners. Of course FIA could change the rule that […]

To me it’s not confusing because I see faster lap times as a lasting advantage. I don’t see how they wouldn’t be as it makes you reach the goal line faster.

You know, McLaren is currently 3rd in standings and can develop their car as well.

Dignified manner
IMO you can’t really say this when he played people into a position where they had to do his will or appear racist.

Those are his words so we can’t say what would be more accurate from his point of view.

Everybody knows what he did as it was public: Strong arming people to his will in Twitter and media. Bullyish behaviour […]

Who are these fans they all are talking about? Is it just a codeword that mean ‘I’?

Kimi’s had a 2+1 contract, the 3rd year being an option that either side could just say that they’ll take it. So they would’ve had to try to buy Kimi out of the contract and he could’ve just said “no thanks”.

Used to describe those who easily get angry and red in the face on any given subject.
An interesting new term! So it means pretty much the same as “an angry person”? Can a person of any race be a gammon? If […]
