F1 2022


I take everything on face value when it comes to F1 and I’m just glad it’s changed from watching Merc win everything because their budget was millions and millions more than everyone else.

There’s a lot of RB haters on here but TM acts like he’s the Uber by quoting regulations & events from years ago and then can’t handle it when he’s proven to be wrong. The definition of childish.
So you are happy watching RB win everything because they spent more than everyone else the last 2 seasons? Bit ironic really
 
Maybe it is. But why wasn’t he allowed to plead his case like Perez was 3 hours after the race? It’s a much more subjective decision. I’d argue being more than 10 car lengths behind the safety car is also an offence - especially after a warning so why wasn’t Perez penalised for that?

Running Norris off the road in qualifying is also a penalty. Why wasn’t Max penalised for that?

Max ran over a corner in defence in Singapore and was noted by not investigated. No different to the Charles one today. Why no penalty?

Funny how all of these decisions, week after week, benefit a certain team.

We all know they are guilty. The FIA wouldn’t have dragged it out this much if there wasn’t an offence. They’ve been investigated since March - sorry but it doesn’t take that long to compile some accounts - I work closely with our own finance team at a company with 20 times to turnover of the budget cap and it doesn’t take half this time to do it.

Anyone who believes that RB have obeyed the cap, no matter what excuse or rules change happens on Monday, is naive at the very best

Agree on the inconsistency of it all, but I think if you look at Le Clerc today as an isolated incident and ignore the rest of it, they’ve actually got it spot on
 
I told you to come back to me when you found that red flag. Found it yet?
No idea what you are on about, since you've been on ignore all season kid

Except that's not how the sport should work. If you ignore all the times RB benefitted from stewarding, the stewarding has been correct is what you are saying. You cannot get 90% of decisions wrong, then get praised for getting one right...

You put me on ignore after chuntering on about a red flag on lap 1 of either AD or SA last season, when I proved you wrong you didn’t like it and resorted to patronising comments like “kid”.

Hopefully you completely fall out of love with the sport and fuck off from the thread for good.

I put you on ignore well before that, kid.
 
You do realise that development for this years car doesn’t happen this year right? And any infraction for last year will have benefit this years car more than last years. And as the regulations are fixed, RB have guaranteed supremacy until 2026 by cheating? And by all accounts they are also massive over budget for this year too?

Also worth pointing out that Max crossed the finish line with 3 seconds remaining, so there should have been another lap.

In the case of the chequered flag being thrown early, article 56.2 states that the race is rolled back to the lap before, and hence Charles finishes P2 and Max doesn’t win today.

But it’s not like the FIA to fix races to benefit Max is it?
Top facting 👍
 
"back onto ignore" - so you'd been on twice before.

Surely last week involved 1st and 2nd so needed an even quicker decision, by that logic?
What happened last week? My minds gone blank……..

Perez and the safety car. Yes it should have been decided quicker but was not as cut and dried as today.

Perez failing to get penalised for not following the safety car - should have been a 10 second penalty, a Charles win and hence no WDC for Max today.

How can it not be as cut and dry? Perez's is measured by a distance and is therefore a factual decision - he either is or is not the required distance from the SC. Charles' is a subjective decision as to what an advantage is.

I just have a suspicion that they need the drivers championship decided before they announce the budget cap results.

This is just my opinion, I think they will penalise Red Bull for last year and if they do it will penalise Max. Got a feeling they need him to have his championship (this year) so it softens the blow when he loses last years. They knew the rules were not followed last year and he’s only a paper champion but this way he gets the title he deserves and LH gets his 8th.

As much as I would like that to happen, just can’t see it happening.
