Does that mean Schiavomacher still can technically drive in F1?

I don't think he ever lost his superlicense?


Some big changes came in 2016.

I believe they have to be renewed year on year and even past/present F1 drivers must have contested at least 5 Grands Prix in the past season, or 15 Grands Prix over the previous three years.

However Kubica should now qualify due to this :

Wikipedia posted:

Appendix L also allows the FIA to award a Super Licence to a driver who does not meet the normal criteria if a vote reveals unanimous agreement by the members, and provided that the driver has completed 300 kilometres of testing at racing speeds in a current car.

I remember reading Schumi wouldn't have qualified for his comeback under the current rules.

Y'all are getting overexcited. I'm looking forward to the return of the Kube but it's only a matter of time before Hulkenberg reverts to his base nature and rolls a tank into Bobby's side of the garage to meet up with Kvyat to discuss how they're going to partition Bobby's car and engineers.

I'm sure Renault could pull some strings to get him back in if anything.

Rev. Dr. Moses P. Lester posted:

Don't superlicenses expire after like 3 years? And don't you have to actually score points in another series at some level to get the superlicense?

They changed it to that after Max got in. The following series, if you win, allow you to get 40 points towards it (or enough for one): Formula 2 (top 3 get 40), Euro F3, Formula E, WEC LMP1 championship, and IndyCar. GP3 is only 35 points max.

I doubt the process for reclaiming a superlicense is the same as for getting a brand new one.

Can a current F1 driver get their super license revoked if they don't score enough points?

No ones going to mention that Bobby K crashed into the side of his garage as he was exiting the pits? At least Jolly Off Palmer only cashes when he's out on track.

I like that the people mocking that infographic are the same people who agree with its ridiculous placement of Kubica. Holy poo poo. I like the guy but he's currently miles off the pace. He will improve in time but not even close to being ahead of verstappen or vettel.

I'm not convinced Benson is a real person. It makes more sense that 'he' is a deranged AI that writes F1 columns based on an algorithm that is centred on the fallacy that Lewis Hamilton is above all criticism.

I really can't comment because the way the market is cornered by the one kart shop in town up here I'm pretty sure buying an OTK that's a write off and parting it out for $800USD would get pretty close to turning a profit.
