Ferrari sees success in their future. Unsure if for them or for teams racing against them.

According only to Binnotto? I can see Binnotto being Binned during the simmer break.

They might as well just put Honda on the rear wing again

Lewis Hamilton is now part of the ownership group of a football team. No, not that kind of football team:

 

[McLaren]

That’s an interesting pairing to see.

Agreed, this is ridiculous! Red Bull threatening to leave because they'd have to run racing team and engine department, gets their own way with an engine freeze, then Honda designs and develops the engine anyway....

 

[Liquid]

Minardi then, Ferrari now.

 

[IcySlivers]

Pretty naff record to break given the nature of Indianapolis laps led.

Still another record to add to his laundry list of accomplishments

 

[Dolph Drago]

Impressive as it is for Lewis, Vuky would have led even more if not for his unfortunate death while in the lead going for his third 500 in a row.

 

[Blitz24]

I really, really, REALLY hope this is to address a problem that all teams complained about and not just one that a certain team has complained about and F1 decided to give in to add "excitement" to the championship.

 

[IcySlivers]

Hopefully the vehicles don’t get any slower

Did they discuss the issue with all drivers and principals or did they discuss the proposed regulations with all drivers and principals?

I'm hoping it was the Général J-M Balestre approach: 'Well, you want something done about it, so this is what you're going to do'.

Worst Strategy of your life so far!

Worst Strategy of your life so far!

I see Ferrari is preparing for the 2nd half just like they ended the first!

 

[Samus]

Surely that's Charles' fault, don't you choose your own strategy in the F1 games?

It's also possible to choose your own strategy in real life, but he doesn't seem aware of that either.

 

[TheElbows]

It would be brilliant if the next F1 game on major consoles/PCs had super erratic Ferrari pits/strategies, etc. Regardless of player input. "Select season difficulty: Easy / Medium / Hard / Ferrari"

Have to add a Life mode. Probably would create an achievement of "Qualify for a race in a Life." Winning the race with a Life would cause the game to self-immolate.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

Not a good look for F1. This guy should've been booted.

 

[Liquid]

Who?

Stop giving idiots attention.

 

[Jimlaad43]

Andrew Tate appeared a few months ago on TikTok slandering Jake Paul, so got waaaay too much attention and now is suddenly the most important person in the world or something, despite proving many times since that he's a misogynist and is just as materialistic and egotistical as you'd expect for a young retired rich sportsperson. He deserves nowhere near the attention he and his abysmal views deserve and the sooner he gets cancelled and forgotten about the better.

Ignore this Tate cretin and his woeful attempt at grabbing more clout with abysmal hot-takes about a sportsperson who is vastly superior in terms of talent, influence and success to him in a sport he knows nothing about.

 

[ROAD_DOGG33J]

You are right. I edited out the link, so there's no additional attention.

 

[Famine]

slandering Jake Paul

That's no easy task.

 

[Veinz]

Never heard of this guy until now, I thought it was Pitbull at first.

 

[MagpieRacer]

"Finally"? It will be their fourth time in Formula One. What is climactic about that when they've finally made it to F1 three times before? That they're actually going to stay longer than three years this time?

 

[toastet]

F1nally not a complete works team entry and just buying into a team build on a energy drink with close to zero reference to our customers and shareholder financing the whole thing.

 

[GingerBredMan]

Hopefully part of the deal includes squeezing out Helmut Marko. He was trending on Twitter (again) yesterday for very Helmut Marko reasons
