I wonder how much of this is from the teams complaining about any little thing to get their rivals to loose positions. Are lawyers included in the cost cap ? LoL

Yes, what if the driver couldn’t get himself out of the car. An indycar safety crew with full gear would have done better than a couple of well meaning guys that pull up in a Mercedes.

It’s possible in his weakened state he caught it after initially getting sick with something else or were these ‘false negatives’ testing errors? seems strange only when he returned did he test positive.

Agree it’s a slippery slope to allow politics into sport. What about other drivers that may want to champion different causes on the podium. Free Tibet….. or if let’s say another driver puts on a police […]

Well it’s just speculation but perhaps he was told prior to not be so negative on the radio and he’s in a ‘ don’t say anything or I will be seen as complaining ‘ kinda mood. Or something like that.

exactly, he wants to wait for things to recover so he can maximize his 3 year deal. His delay does nothing for those laid off.

I’m shocked that so many lawyers in F1 this wasn’t covered – every team needs a reserve with an active super licence. maybe in normal years it’s rare enough that multiple teams could share a FIA qualified […]

I think it should be optional for drivers that feel strongly to honor whatever they wish or not. There are so many sub movements now which will be honored and which not ? Why not covid victims, front line […]

I think drivers can make a difference but not a big a one as they claim as we’ve seen with Alonso and others going to ‘lesser’ teams and not putting the car on pole. The aero and power unit have bigger […]

well put!

exactly – put your helmet on and drive.

I’m sure his desire for knighthood has something to do with it. He’s not wrong but he is making it all about himself.

Agree some grass or astro turf something that safely looses grip and deters cutting the track. If it wasn’t an advantage drivers wouldn’t be out there. I don’t like this well you get three then a warning and […]

exactly, if we’re opening it up to all motorsports then Mario Andretti is firmly near the top in my opinion

that’s not a bad idea actually Phil. There are esports out there, perhaps liberty would rather host something in iracing for example with all the real F1 drivers at a circuit they might miss and broadcast that […]

Agreed, F1 is such an engineering series. This is one of the little things back in the drivers hands. With all the fuel saving tire saving wait for my engineer to tell me what to do races, this is a little bit […]

I think the the 500 being a month long event there’s alot of engineering that go into setups etc and that favours the big teams which also have several cars and more data.

The Virus of team orders would only get worse with 3 car teams. “yeah you’re doing great there in third, you don’t score points anyway so just hold up Vettel as long as you can”.

The solution to Toto’s problem […]

I imagine you meant that last point in Jest as Indy car isn’t run by Bernie, there’s no side money for special people. You get paid based on where you finish the race. (what a concept :) ) Now Maybe a big […]
