The FIA’s primary responsibility at any event is to ensure the safety of everyone involved and the integrity of the sport.

Apprently not

This isn’t a Mercedes v RB issue. It’s about the integrity of the sport being nuked to oblivion for the sake of artificial drama.

Couldn’t agree more. Anyone talking about who deserved what, or Mercedez str […]

It’s perfectly normal for a driver to be given an opportunity to relinquish a position before being referred to the stewards so there is nothing incomprehensible about it at all.

I don’t know why people are so […]

This has nothing to do with ethics….what I’m saying is, the same discussion has happened EVERY time a driver has gained a position illegally for the past…well, as long as I can remember and I’m sure long […]

The negotiation was perfectly normal and happens all the time – you just haven’t heard it before

The negotiation was perfectly normal – it happens every time a driver gains a position against the rules.

People seem to think that because this is the first time we have HEARD it, that it’s the first time it’s […]

I guess I would argue it wasn’t unnecessary as they were racing to the drs line. And what people ‘feel’ happened I would argue is not permissible as evidence.

As for punishment vs outcome, that is never a […]

I don’t know why people are losing their minds so much over this…..I’m no verstappen fan but the stewards explanation is totally reasonable.

If this was contact whilst passing which resulted in some damage, I […]

I loved last years all yellow to this years cop out. It’s just graphic designers trying to keep themselves in a job.

After all that hype, it looks awful. Like they ran out of orange paint halfway through after doing the nose. They’re just random orange stripes that don’t bear any relation to the shape of the car or any of its […]

So you’re going to tell your kids to give up on something if they’re not very good at it, and they won’t have to work hard in life because it should all come naturally to them (Exaggerating here of course
)? Way […]

We’re not talking about Baumgartner here, Nico is still a decent driver, just doesn’t have that last 10th on Hamilton.

Elite sport is about mind management, anyone that can’t see that is deluding themselves, […]

F1 is not about being the fastest, however much you want it to be. Rosberg’s outstanding mental fortitude and his unwavering determination to never give up in the face of a stronger team mate makes him my driver […]

Sure can, probably remarkably similar to what he does now :p

Err how was Alonso the quicker car this weekend? Button beat him all weekend, and I don’t remember Alonso even getting within DRS of Button. Alonso was using more fuel to even keep up with him, hence he plumeted […]

As I remember (I could be wrong), he said last year it was a post pit stop engine map that was causing the problem. That map is probably tailored to each circuit based on the needs of the energy recovery systems. […]

Fair enough, I like the suggestion above to call it the NASCAR Cup then

@keithcollantine any chance we could call the championship by it’s proper name? Saying the NASCAR championship is like saying F1 is the FIA championship, it’s meaningless! Surely we all know NASCAR is the […]

I’ve given up this year. The races are far too long even when you skip ad breaks, and there are just far too many of them! It became a real chore. I wish there was a decent highlights program available. Shame, […]
