Watched the highlights
- Green track while the marshals are still dragging a wing out the barrier :stare:
- lol Renault engines
- George, stop moaning all the time

A very boring race, redeemed only with a good result for good quality manufacturers with real F1 history like Ferrari and McLaren, and Max having a bad time trying to do his dogshit dive bombing move.

The Singapore circuit brings a new definition of terrible. I've never seen a duller rain F1 race.

Saw a recap that made a good point - this was the worst-case scenario for a rain track drying off, due to the humidity, the night time condition, and the buildings surrounding the circuit.

Singapore is a tricky circuit for passing, but very slow drying off-line was going to make it impossible. Whole lot of action in the race but little change or activity at the front.

I saw that #costcappenscandal was a trending hashtag for this on Twitter and I think it's clunky and bad. Does anyone have anything better?

My wife says #MathsVerstappen which is pretty great. I was thinking #RedBudgetRacing, which is kinda meh

No, as usual there is nobody competent competing against Red Bull.

I would be genuinely curious to see what the punishment for a large break of the cost cap would be, especially when done in a year of major development. How would the FIA weasel their way out of serious repercussions when all the other teams would be out for blood?

No wonder this poo poo took 10 months, the list of exceptions is massive.

And you know RB will have had a plan to reclassify as much as possible into this, even before they hide things in RBAT.

I assume they have to do that because a lot of teams have like, technical/engineering consulting arms.

I suspect they'll just use rules lawyering over the exceptions + being super credulous about the teams reporting costs that are too low for certain items to make sure any breach is under the $7M threshold where they'd have to do anything "serious"

tbh i don't see how this turns into anything other than every team breaking the cap flagrantly and lying about it.
