I think what the new rules and regulations shows is that you'll always have RB/Ferrari/Mercedes as top tier and battling out for championships, but it won't be repeats, three-peats, four-peats, etc. Because of more CFD and wind tunnel time, you're going to have an advantage the next season. Of course you can get lucky and keep making the best car but that's going to be hard to do when you're capped in resources.
Red Bull will likely win this year, but who knows how much improvement Ferrari or Mercedes will have. |

Honestly, this results are a bit overstated to me. Account for the DNF's (and some lucky safety cars) and he's only shown to be decent while still having one of the fastest cars on the grid. I think this twilight stage will wear off and you'll see some not so desirable results from Rus especially when he and Ham get too close. The best thing he has going for him is that he is beating Ham (which doesn't really tell me that much anymore since his results are dismal). He is still nowhere near the pace, or talent of Max or Lec. I also think Per is a better driver too.

What happened to Haas, it was looking promising at beginning of the season? They have flat lined. Hate to say it, but Mick might be holding them back some.

Since Ferrari has stumbled their way out of the championship I'm hoping Perez can get the win and keep the battle for 1st interesting. It could create some unexpected excitement if Verstappen had to deal with his own Rosberg situation.

Out of curiosity do they let people pay to drive these temporary street tracks while they are built?

But it might be risky to have it opened to the public because one massive crash with alot of debris, oil, and track damage and it could delay the event.

Otherwise if you want a proper track day you gotta go when they do open lapping (a car club rents it out etc) but at that point it's not going to be free. I don't think they'd ever risk a free open lapping track day around the time of the event, it would attract too many inexperienced people that might crash.

It's amazing to drive the streets and famous tunnel section with normal traffic on Sunday evening, as if nothing happened, knowing that F1 cars (already inside transport trucks in the meantime) were fighting at those very places earlier that day.

If the FIA bails out Mercedes with new regulations I cannot think of anything more outrageous for the sport (other than last lap hijinx during the last race of the year of course lol). That team dominated for eight years, and to even think they'd cut them some sort of break due to their f'up this year is unbelievable.
Raise the car height, there's your fix MB. Cya next year! |

Looks like it has already been blocked anyways by multiple teams. https://www.planetf1.com/news/teams-...ising-changes/ Merc will probably continue to over exaggerate the issue. Just like a player flopping in a soccer game. I believe Toto now knows their design this year was a failure. Russell is getting the maximum out of the car.

Some of ya'll brave predicting a win for LeClerc.
I can't imagine them not taking a 10 place grid penalty in Canada for a new PU. |

What a strange team environment - if Lewis doesn’t perform well then the whole team can’t celebrate successes (bottas era and now Russell) what happens if Lewis signs up for another 2 years? Seems logical that a talented Merc engineer may explore other options long term. Especially with RBR and VW entering the mix. After parking the car, Russell looked for additional team members and saw no one. Unfortunate situation at that team. On the podium, Toto on the phone. Cannot make this stuff up.

"I’ve mentioned here before that one of my favourite quotes was by boxer Jack Dempsey, who once defined a champion as “somebody who gets up when they can’t.” I’m sure that Tyson Fury would be well able to explain exactly what that means.I genuinely think that HAM suffers intense back pains from porpoising. IMHO no exaggeration/faking. Sufficient footage available showing that his body takes a serious beating on long straights with the W13. Same goes for RUS, though whose younger body seems to better cope with the discomfort (but who also indicated experiencing discomfort). However, if any exaggeration of suffering would be involved for whatever reason (several competitors including his team mate RUS regularly outperforming HAM this 2022 season or Mercedes trying to induce FIA to change rules) it would be unsportsmanlike.
