I've always loved F1 because of how no one ever does anything unethical. Everyone is so kind and fair. That's one of the hallmarks of the sport, IMO.

wicka posted:Renault just hired an FIA employee who knows intricate details about every team's designs and we've already forgotten That was resolved and he was additionally delayed from starting at Renault so instead of 3 months it was agreed he'd start 6 months later instead. The FIA were pissed about it as well but Swiss law prevented them from really doing anything since a maximum of 3 months gardening leave was permitted so the 6 months thing was just a compromise agreed by all apparently.

Apparently Kubica's performance in Abu Dhabi was some ways short of decisive: http://www.bbc.com/sport/formula1/42199674 The Martini sponsorship is not worth it. They aren't paying very much for a title sponsor, and the "one driver must be 25 years old" rule is an idiotic handicap no one else has to consider.

I am glad to be alongside my avatar-sake Andrew Benson in doubting the Kube can make a return to F1. I fully expect to remain un-toxxed when Williams make their decision to appoint Di-Resta to the seat.

He's taking up the seat that should be going to a talented youngster. Even without Martini's requirements, daddy Stroll would probably veto any talented youngster from taking the other seat and outshining his son.

Spare my your usual hysterics Wicka. Benson is a loving hack. There's a reason why Williams upfront said "Don't read anything into the times coming out because we're testing 2018 tires that are completely different and untested and we haven't adapted the cars." and then Benson did exactly that.
