I have gotten pit passes at both Nascar and Indy. All the drivers I have met were somewhere besides the pits except for A J Foyt. I was standing next to a car waiting on my wife to come back when some guy comes up and starts talking about the car. I was carrying on the conversation with him, but watching out for my wife so never looked at him. When he asked me if I wanted an autograph, I looked over and A J Foyt was standing next to me.

I don’t think it is fair to compare DAS and Merc not being able to optimize the aero on their car - especially when Mercedes has full control over their ride height and doesn’t need to have their car slamming into the ground over and over. That’s their choice.

Warming rumors Oscar Piastri will be lined to Williams next year and will take Latifi’s seat. Well deserved. Would be crazy for him to not have a seat in F1 for 2 seasons

I noticed small man Horner has finally admitted Masi fucked up at Abu Dhabi.
Really? That's surprising. I didn't see it.

All I have seen from Horner is bringing up the team sacking Yuri Vips when asked about Piquet's comments. I get what he is going for but...

Now there's a surprise.

I think I might have a heart attack and die from that surprise.




Also, maybe we shouldn't let him, I mean his wife, continue to have an executive role in the FIA?

Funny wording. Almost makes it seem like the FIA banished him to the shadow realm.

"You fuck up? Off to Australia with you."

And this is the scumbag who comments on Hamilton's clothes and bling like it's important.

The slime, bottom-feeders of F-1 are coming-up for air and they are a foul, corrupt, pile-of-dogshit lot.

Here is what F-1 is doing about the proposing issue that apparently Mercedes still has not fully remedied. Structural changes are on the way and many will be mandated to race a car in the F-1 Races.

I caught his qualifying yesterday. Starting 26 out of 40. Was asking about which lines were faster while he was out there mid-lap, so it was pretty clear he had very limited experience on the track, if any.

Of course while KR was in a new car on a new track, the announcers used it as an opportunity to play up how ‘world-class’ the drivers at the top of the field are.
