It's good. The guys in red in the background are looking at the Ferrari like they have no idea what's wrong with it.

Yep that is an interesting read well written and thought out and some very valid points.
Probably the only thing F1 I have followed through from start to finish this year.
Thanks for posting.

Sometimes links get overlooked. Don't take it personal. :bye:

I agree with every word MB says. The fact that the teams are allowed to have a say in how the rules are designed is a flaw in itself (or rather, how big of a say they have). And when the major teams have the FIA and Liberty in an anaconda choke, threatening to up and leave if the rules aren't to their liking, you just know we won't get the change that's needed.

I saw that the idea of a unified gearbox was shot down earlier today. Nothing will change for 2021, the team with the biggest budget and the best boffins in the factory will win, as usual, and the teams stuck in the middle of the pack will continue racing for bread crumbs.

I didn't. Just my weird sense of humour stepping in.
