Keep the woke BS out of F1...
The FIA clarifies free speech rule after fierce backlash from Lewis Hamilton and drivers
Formula 1′s governing FIA has said drivers will be allowed to make political statements only in “exceptional” circumstances after seeking to clarify its contentious new law.
The sporting federation recently updated its rules to prevent “political, religious or personal” remarks being made without prior approval.
However, the FIA has attracted a fierce backlash from a number of drivers — with seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton this week insisting he will not be silenced, and Lando Norris accusing F1′s rulers of treating drivers like schoolchildren.
In an attempt to clarify the law — which has threatened to cast a shadow over the new season — the FIA has responded with a three-page document sent to the grid’s 10 teams on Friday.
The document says drivers will still be able to “express their views on any political, religious or personal matter” in “their own space,” and outside of a race, via their social media channels or during an interview.

This cracked me up....new Haas pit wall (Red Bull pit wall below for comparison). Apparently this saves them 250k a year.

These cars look so good in testing HNNNGG. Is the rear wing lower than last year?? Cars look tighter somehow.
Literally drives a car for millions of dollars.... Is there any record of how much he volunteers his time & donates his money to these causes? Exactly.

Don't sleep on Ferrari. I really think they can fight for constructor if Vasseur does a half way decent job.

Ferrari, if they can fix their strategy issues, could be an outside chance for WDC but should definitely take the constructors championship. Checo isn't on Maxes level at all, but RBR have enough speed and chitty Ferrari tactics to take out the constructors title without much trouble with a slower Checo.
Not so quietly hoping they drop Checo from the main line up for Ricciardo during this season. That would be the tits.

I think Checo is too good of a #2 for RBR. I’d love to see Ric back - he should have stayed at Renault/Alpine.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Lando on RBR. I have a good feeling McLaren will be even bigger ass than last year. They’re a joke. They should have sold to Audi. They sealed their fate as a backmarker.

What happened at Renault? What about at Red Bull when Max was performing as good, if not better than him when Daniel was witth the team for longer? Is the excuse always that the car "isn't built for him"?
Love Daniel as a person, but something along the way fell off for the dude as a driver. No good excuses for it. He fell off.
Edit: Regardless, it looks like McLaren has built another mediocre car. Lando could be with Red Bull right now. He chose to stay with McLaren. Scared to be Max's teammate IMO. Not that I can blame him. Right now, Max's form is the absolute best on the grid, and it's not even close for anyone else. He's on another planet from the rest of the guys. At McLaren, Lando can stay on easy street as the star driver.

I'd love to know what his mindset was for leaving. Because Red Bull to Renault is 100% dumbass ****. The only two things that could have been on his mind were:
- money
- At Renault he could be number 1 where it was clear that Red Bull was beginning to prioritize Max over him (how can you blame them when Max was starting to out perform him).
I love how Daniel says one of the main reason for leaving Red Bull was "things keep happening at races outside my control" pointing to all the DNF's from Renaults garbage engine - - - - then he joins the fking teamthat's providing the garbage engine, where he continued to have DNF's due to the garbage engine. Can't make this **** up lmfao.

ALO clocked a time 1.1s slower than PER, and most of the gap was due to the higher drag and lower downforce (look at the faster corners)
I can't imagine anyone but Hamilton fanboys being upset if we get an Alonso fighting for the title, the guy is a legend and one of the best ever, he deserves one more run.

If we went off of testing last year, Haas had a car in the fastest top 2 two of the three days, and Alpha Romeo had the number 1 fastest car the first day...and we know how that all I worked out for both of them... I wouldn't take much of anything that testing shows for performance very seriously. At best, you can get an idea of who has solved porpoising issues.
We'll see who really has what when we get to qualifying in 6 days.

Team Max crew
Guy is just godtier.
I like AM but fckn hate that the billionaire puts his kid in the seat.
Isn't porsche joining formula 1? Thought I'd seen that somewhere. Will be switching to team porsche crew if that happens.
Surprised Ford doesn't try do their own team as the American flagship.
Also wonder why the ****tier teams didn't try give ricciardo a shot with them instead of wasting away in red bulls Back ground.

Porsche was looking for someone to team up with as an engine provider only. They were working a deal with Red Bull, but it sounds like they wanted more control than Red Bull was willing to give. So deal fell through.
**** tier teams can’t afford Daniel’s $10,000,000+ a year asking price.
**** tier teams don’t have a talent problem anyway. They have car problems. No one on those teams is underperforming compared to what the cars are capable of, so none of those teams are going to pay for someone like Daniel to sit in their car every weekend and still place bottom 8.
