quote:

It is rumoured behind the scenes that not only Verstappen but also Adrian Newey is unhappy with the current situation. Horner wants to relegate him completely to the RB17 hypercar project for budget cap reasons. The design guru explained in a podcast just six months ago that he regretted never having worked with Ferrari or Lewis Hamilton on an "emotional level". Frederic Vasseur would be foolish if he hadn't already put out feelers.

The precedent has been set that you can just throw it all on the catering budget, and artisanal Italian cooking is going to be 2-3x more expensive than whatever you can get in Milton Keynes.

I know willingly obtuse posting is what we do here but F1Academy is clearly not meant to get these current ladies into F1.
At best it's marketing "inspiring the next generation" with a nice side effect of getting the current crop maybe a few more opportunities/sponsors.

I think it was pointed out that if they tried, every driver would have an official salary of $1 but completely unrelated payments in the millions from the sponsors for 'marketing' or 'consultation' or some other obviously bullshit dodge.

Yeah, your top 3(?) other salaries are excluded too.

A reminder that over half of an F1 team's spending is not included in the cost cap.

I mean maybe he just draws a modest salary, and then at the same time Newey is given triple digit millions to design and create cars in the Ferrari customer business.

Those two things are obviously unrelated and anyone who would suggest otherwise are slanderous Red Bull knob-gobblers who deserve to lose everything.

The whole Ferrari group share one big canteen, and Newey who is definitely now a sports car designer likes to take five hour long lunch breaks to chat to the F1 guys about how the season is going, he's a bit nostalgic like that. Unfortunately he's getting on a bit and he keeps misplacing all the sketches that he draws of new aero parts.

I did wonder if the Sachs PP shocks were better than the regular shocks, I ended up getting the KW's because they do a christmas/new year sale europe wide. Which top hats and lca's did you use? Went with PMU Club racers for pads this time for a change, I used to use carbotech XP10 on the mr2. I did think of buying. PP car but they are really rare here and a lot more expensive than just a regular facelift one.

RaceEng Top Hats, Whiteline Caster Bushings, Cusco Front Swaybar Links , SPC Lower Control Arms (Rear).


The only reason I use PP Shocks is for classing reasons. I don’t want to get nailed. I have TRD springs and sway bars.


I have some project Mu Pads as well that I haven’t used.

I'm going very stupid and getting Whiteline chassis plus control arm bushings installed next month.

So far, Whiteline LCAs, shifter bushings, steering rack bushings, and some Verus aero bits.
