Yep, and F1 is following the same trajectory in America for the same reasons as NAScar.

And noone cares about NAScar at all outside America.

The lessons have not been learned.

Aha, ha, ha, ha, ha.

Ha.

I can sum car launch season from the fans point of view in one word.

Pointless.

Shockingly, people cheat in competition when rules not enforced properly. Happens wherever rules are badly written or badly implemented.

I don’t care about computer games, but it’s not limited to pretend racing.

Why don’t they just say that it’s a press launch and have done with it?
It’s nothing more than publicity for the sponsors – same as with all the teams.

Less “look what we’ve made” and more “look whose […]

There hasn’t been a new team in recent F1 history that has jumped in and been competitive immediately. Haas came closest with minor points.
It takes time and investment, lots of both.
I’d rather slow cars on […]

What’s the harm in getting knocked out of the competition at the first opportunity?
What’s the harm for F1 and the existing teams of some new boy coming in, failing to qualify and going home again?

Anyone who can produce a car that meets the regulations and can pay the entry fee should be allowed to race. Even if there’s 2 mechanics and a driver.

I’ve yet to hear anyone say anything sportingly positive about a sprint race weekend. It is, after all, merely another way of making the grid for the Grand Prix more predictable – another chance for a fast car to […]

Arnoux is about as relevant to modern F1 as Sir Jackie Stewart is.
Who cares what he thinks?

I actually think Binottos reign at Ferrari has been mostly decent, but Ferrari themselves are the issue – this is […]

I fail to see the point in car launches these days. It’s never the car being launched – just the sponsors and livery.

I truly find it amazing that Alonso is regarded as a god by so many, when he performed so averagely for so much of his career. And Hamilton is slated for his performances – it’s just the car, beaten by […]

She has the talent, now it’s time to see if she can race with a field of hungry young drivers.
I believe that she can, and I’ll be following her progress very closely.

F1: Sprint races, sounds like a great idea. Let’s canvass the fans…

Fans: NOOOOOOO!!!

F1: OK, maybe a trial. Then we’ll see what you think.

Fans: NOOOOOOOOO!!!!

F1: More Sprints!!!

Fantastic, exactly what the fans who finance the sport have been crying out for.

I really hope Perez follows his team’s example.
And looks after himself.

Red Bull is toxic.
My own personal opinion is that the entire Verstappen family is toxic as well.

Horner is an insincere, two-faced […]

What matters here is to have a slow entry, but don’t worry – the exit is much faster.

And F1 would be a better place without cheats in it. But since the FIA refuse to do anything meaningful against cheats – historically and not just this time – and F1 insists on selling TV rights to people like […]

It was never fitted to a car in a competitive session, or anywhere at beyond a wind tunnel model as far as I can tell.

No rules were breached, or even bent a little bit.
I imagine removing them cost about 5 […]

You mean, by the fact that he fought back and was ahead by a huge margin in the last race, with Red Bull having no answer until the safety car shenanigans to ensure a title showdown?
Thats not entitlement, that’s deserving.
