F1 2022 Season

No it was a world championship win. Check the history books. They all say it, except the ones that only say “John Major Punched the Queen”

Not sure I agree.
Any F1 history book will have details of Masi and last seasons championship gift to Max. In retrospect, the bending of the rules is even more obvious now than it was at that time.

If you can’t tell the difference between 2021 and 2022, nobody can help you understand anything.

It’s literally in the first sentence of the article and the bloody url.

Well, obviously it's spent from 2021 budget, I am not stupid. 2022 budget isn't even spent by teams yet nor we know the budget used yet, but my point is that 2021 budget is mostly used development for 2022 car, and not gaining advantage during 2021 season - where Red Bull was Hamilton's main rival.

What makes you say that? Does it lose F1 a lot of money?

Why, the atmosphere is electric, as seen yesterday it's a track that is extremely challenging for drivers and cars - every small mistake can cost you a lot. Which makes it super entertaining for the watchers also and haven't heard a single thing about drivers not enjoying it, they usually love those tough conditions.

Well I can't say for sure, but Perez being a homegrown talent which Mexico hasn't seen for a long time - usually these GP's get huge attendance to support their man.

Once Perez leaves the casuals might not bother to attend, i'm sure there will be a drop in attendance.

Maybe there will be enough interest to keep it? we shall see. The track isn't exactly a mega exciting one either

You should just stop posting when you don’t know what you’re talking about.

Go read up on the actual rules and when it’s being implemented before making up bullshit.

So you keep attacking me and acting condenscending towards me for some reason(even though I wasn't harsh on you in any post) without actually making any point whatsoever. I think biterness some of you have towards Red Bull is actually not normal behaviour.

Anyway, I'll leave this here to prove I am right and that's it from me:

https://racingnews365.com/how-breaking-the-f1-budget-cap-can-lead-to-better-car-performance/amp


In practice, allocating part of the previous budget to the next project, as it was spent during the previous year, precisely because the initial phase of each project develops one year earlier.

In fact, it is correct to underline that the financial presentation filed with the FIA, concerning the entire activity carried out by the team throughout the year, and therefore also the design phase of the next car.

It therefore seems clear that the advantage deriving from a breach of the budget in one year is reflected in the next.

Aww a bit precious isn't he? sheesh. Must have touched a nerve there :lol:

Kravitz is more than allowed an opinion that he's certainly not alone in.

Of course he's entitled to his opinion but he certainly shouldn't be using such stark language on an actual broadcast, especially calling the integrity of the sport into question.

Love Ted but this is a gaffe from him. If he'd expressed something like this on a podcast or whatever that's fair enough and you could call Verstappen precious but that seems out of line on an F1-licensed broadcast.
 
Ted is a bumbling idiot who doesn't seem to understand that he's on a global broadcast and not his own Twitch stream. It's really nauseating hearing the Sky bias towards British drivers every race.

That's acceptable for a regional broadcast. But they are also the global broadcast. I think FOM needs to just make everyone happy and assign a separate global crew.
 
Good decision by RB. Liberty Media should consider cutting Sky and just use their own commentators for the world feed. Unfortunately they recently extended their deal until 2029(?) I think.

This is the absolute best news in years, well done Ted

I get the feeling this was wholly down to the difficult questions posed by David Croft in their press conference on Friday. Max spoke to Ted fine on Thursday, so I don't think there's any animosity about comments made in America.

I'd rather they boycott to get rid of Crofty and Herbert. Ted obviously has the clown reputation but his bitterness is a lot less pointed than the other two.

Sky's coverage has needed a dramatic overhaul for too long as it is. The weekends that Brundle hasn't been in the paddock have been absurdly poor, he holds it all together.

I'd agree with that. It's noticeably better when he's there and it's obvious he's got some respect amongst teams that some of the others don't seem to have. When Rosberg was there instead it was awful.
 
hobbers said:
Compared to the rest Brundle always seems balanced and impartial and, crucially, he has insight and actually knows what he's talking about. Ted and Crofty have no racing experience or knowledge and are essentially just Hamilton stans with media training.

Are they?
 
C4 highlights are on at 1am. Does seem they use this as a little push to the pay wall while pushing for the Americas audience. Don't remember such a late time.

What's weird is for CET the quali live is actually quite late, they seem to have quali around two hours later than the race local time which pushes a bit too late in central Europe even for live viewers. I'm not sure why quali can't be similar to the race time in US and Mexico

Anyway I'll stay up to watch the highlights in HD rather than watch a stream with "crofty and co". I might not pay even if I could they're so bad on Sky. C4 presenters are really good and deserve much better.

I know. It's not in question they have none.
