BasCB commented on the post, Perez gets payback in Jeddah but Verstappen denies him championship lead 5 days, 17 hours ago
Well, I guess i cannot help you feeling insulted by me pointing out this was another instance of max showing how “ruthless” he is in persuing only singularily his own advantage @matthijs. Regardless, i am sorry […]
BasCB commented on the post, Perez gets payback in Jeddah but Verstappen denies him championship lead 6 days, 3 hours ago
Sorry you feel that way about it @matthijs. But the thing is, Max has shown us many times he just is not a nice guy. He IS a really fast, clever, talented and even gifted racer though. Reality is every time […]
BasCB commented on the post, Perez gets payback in Jeddah but Verstappen denies him championship lead 6 days, 8 hours ago
I think the issue might be that Red Bull would step in to act against him if he doesn’t do what the team aks him to do Nick T. Sergio is surely not blind to reality to think they would allow him to just take […]
BasCB commented on the post, Perez gets payback in Jeddah but Verstappen denies him championship lead 6 days, 9 hours ago
Lovely. As expected the comments criticizing my view come mostly from fellow Dutchmen! Well, guys, if you have followed the last years of F1, every time Verstappen was in a position to show a bit of team spirit […]
BasCB commented on the post, FIA to review rule which led to Alonso penalty controversy this week 6 days, 13 hours ago
Yeah, this is very clearly something that should have been cleared, put on paper and signed off between everyone before they started using it to penalize anyone @red-andy. And I agree it show how badly organised […]
BasCB commented on the post, Perez gets payback in Jeddah but Verstappen denies him championship lead 6 days, 14 hours ago
Yeah, Max is an Ahole. And Red Bull is clearly not going to give Perez equal chances. Not that we learn’t anything new there (I doubt Perez would have been much surprised to learn this either). But then, Perez […]
BasCB commented on the post, Alonso gets third place back after FIA cancels penalty 6 days, 14 hours ago
My guess is the stewards based their decision on the assumption that agreement had been reached at this meeting, and the new evidence included the minutes from that meeting, which presumably showed that an […]
BasCB commented on the post, Late penalty call "not a very good job" by FIA – Alonso 6 days, 14 hours ago
As Nick T. metions, despite the FIA claiming in their penalty that “touching the car” was a clear and accepted (between the FIA, F1 and the teams) of meeting the term defined in the rules “working on the car”, […]
BasCB commented on the post, Late penalty call "not a very good job" by FIA – Alonso 6 days, 14 hours ago
Well, about that – since the FIA later retracted the penalty because it was not at all that clearly defined that touching the car constitutes “working on the car” as defined in the rules – that is a BS comment […]
BasCB commented on the post, Grid rule Alonso broke is necessary despite "painful" penalty – Verstappen 6 days, 14 hours ago
Mercedes seemed to have a forewarning, I guess it was them who pushed the FIA to revisit this issue. AM only reacted to hearing the radio calls between Mercedes and Russel
BasCB commented on the post, Grid rule Alonso broke is necessary despite "painful" penalty – Verstappen 6 days, 14 hours ago
Exactly Nick. I really don’t see what the reason for giving a penalty in this case is. Sure, I get the idea “make it easy to decide, just give a penalty anyime a car is x cm outside of XY box”, but really giving a […]
BasCB commented on the post, Perez wants 'review' with Red Bull after losing fastest lap point to Verstappen 6 days, 14 hours ago
I completely agree with you there @drmouse. But knowing all that, it is right for him to ask for a review. Even if just to make a few people at Red Bull who behave as if he can trust them feel uncomfortable with […]

Yeah that’s the part where the it gets strange

These are the kind of interviews and looks at things that feel really worthwhile to read! Thanks McLaren and thanks Claire and Ida for bringing us this content on Racefans.
BasCB commented on the post, Ocon cleared up misunderstanding over Bahrain start penalty after FIA meeting 1 week, 2 days ago
From the visuals, I would say it’s only a little wider than an F1 car. I think the upper limit of 3m @jerejj mentions is a bit generous, it seems like they have some 10-20 cm on each side of the car left when they […]
BasCB commented on the post, Ocon cleared up misunderstanding over Bahrain start penalty after FIA meeting 1 week, 2 days ago
“In Bahrain we clearly got it wrong” Indeed, Esteban, quite right.

As @proesterchen points out, it is clear from Haas’ debunk/reaction that there may well have been (i.e. probably were since PBS would have double checked they were shipped) several machines that were already […]
BasCB commented on the post, No "crisis" at Ferrari but "clearly we are not happy" with reliability – Sainz 1 week, 2 days ago
Well, maybe they don’t see it as a “crisis”, but they certainly started on the back foot with new reliability issues AND being off the pace. With Leclerc now certain to face grid penalties and limited development, […]
BasCB commented on the post, Hamilton dissents as rivals back F1's return to Saudi Arabia after missile strike 1 week, 2 days ago
Yeah, the biggest change from last year if the “anti political talking” thing, apart from some changes to the track that might take some of the dangerous parts away. A bit of a sad state of affairs to find F1 in.
BasCB commented on the post, Hamilton dissents as rivals back F1's return to Saudi Arabia after missile strike 1 week, 2 days ago
More likely he is pretty certain that the FIA president would use those new rules against him if he did speak his mind, especially in this place @wsrgo
