F1 Season 2021

[tolmie's hairdoo]

So the FIA admit it is entirely up to Masi to use his discretion as he sees fit.

Who wants to watch a sport like that?

We are already seeing it in football being used against City with VAR.

Completely open to abuse and someone in an office using their own interpretations to get the desired result, regardless of footage and rules.

I'll leave F1 now to the cunts who wouldn't know their Senna from Senakot.

Which opens the sport up to corruption on a huge scale.

When has F1 ever been any different? Remember Ferrari in the 2000's? Spygate?

When I think about all the shit decisions we've had over the last few years from corrupt officials that don't like us, this shitshow puts it all in the shade!

Fucking disgrace.

So the next time Hamilton gets a 12 second lead, the race director can send a safety car out and let them all bunch up again.

Not against the rules, the race director now has the final say apparently.

Lump on Leclerc winning it. Been a while since the rags of F1 have won it.

Do teams have an open line to the race director? Masi is clearly easily influenced. Should have to request an explanation ect not just be able to berate/influence him at the press of a button

There are just open be about it we wanted a new winner and got one

Mercedes is quitting Formula E to concentrate on Formula 1! They already announced that earlier this year.

Thats probably because the current version of FE is a bit of a distraction from the transition of F1 to EV.

I would imagine this decision might make them question who theye are dealing with in F1.

They's been painted as the big bad bully boys against the plucky underdog all year. They won't be happy with any of this.

And capping it off by being well and trully fucked over on the last lap of a season and then the FIA actually trying to brazen it out is amazing tbh.

That was actually McLaren

Nope.

Yep! In any enterprise, whether sporting or not, you can only affect the elements which you control. Everything else is just the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune. Outrageous though today's manipulation by the FIA was, Merc have to accept it, subject to appeal obvs, because there is nothing they can do about it.
