So why aren't we racing in Sochi then? If it's ok to race in homophobic petrochemical tyrannies at war?

there would be 0 races a year if anyone actually cared about not racing in countries that don't respect human rights

What’s the chance that Sky even mention this going on during FP3? I bet Crofty will be too busy making fun of accents…

If mentioned they will briefly and obliquely refer to the 'incident during FP2 yesterday'. That seems to be how F1 has officially decided to refer to it.

That's just how the coverage is here, it's just dire all low angles that show nothing but the track, especially once the sun goes down and it's just a black hole.

Edit: Gasly just stopped in pit exit. Red Bull Power Trains everybody.

Before that F1TV were just explaining that the facilities are so badly designed that Merc need to angle their cars in the garage so they have turn clearance to pull out.

I can't believe they're still running this race.

I also can't believe F1 allowed the Saudis and, presumably, a reality TV show to put a death grip on their balls to still run this race.

Long-time lurker here, but:

quote:

FIA president Mohammed Ben Sulayem added: “We had meeting with high level security officials; we had meetings with the team principals; we had meetings with the drivers and, I ask you: who are they targeting? They are targeting the prospector of the oil company, not the civilian and not, of course, the event.

“Of course we had assurances from high levels that this is a secured place. The whole place will be secured and let’s go on racing. All the families are here, we’re only looking forward but with the assurance that nothing is going to happen.”

This is some NASCAR Brian France-era "The problem doesn't affect me directly and I don't see the problem here, so there's not a problem!" leadership if I've ever seen it. :downsbravo:

Pre season practice Mercedes: "we have big problems, this is going to take more than a few races to solve"

Everyone: "sandbagging!"

Race 1 merc: "this is still going to take awhile to solve"

Everyone: "hmmm maybe Mercedes was....not sandbagging?"

Race 2 merc: "same as we said last time"

Everyone: "It's gotta be the power unit! It's totally unfixable! Mercedes is hosed forever!"

The engine has a power problem man. This is really obvious. Every Mercedes-Benz team has issues.
