If you were to go on race events though I imagine it would be Raikkonen by virtue of the seasons having far more GP weekends now. https://www.lightsoutblog.com/2023/03/16/the-longest-gaps-between-formula-1-wins/ Theophany fucked around with this message at 10:38 on May 9, 2023 |

There is no possibility that the FIA would embrace such a scheme just to have more money funneled into the sport. They are the very definition of transparency and only do things that are for the greater good of Formula 1 and the fans. #moralcompass

Khablam posted:Well I'm just a simple fella myself, but I still believe F1 is the finest sport in the land. Now, some folks might think that F1 is all about fancy gadgets and DRS gimmicks, but I'm here to tell you that ain't so. No sirree, F1 is a fair and square competition, where every team has the same rights and opportunities when it comes to car design. They can do things like add sidepods to their vehicles, which are mighty useful for cooling and aerodynamics, instead of chasing wildly stupid concepts like no sidepods or a spine crusher. Those things belong in the circus, not on the racetrack. Car desisn is a gentleman's sport, where skill and strategy matter more than flashy tricks. Ugh, gently caress libertarians.

https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/...khR1swG7Jz.html Piastri had a car issue apparently quote:“We had some kind of major failure about six or seven laps in on the brake by wire, and energy recovery, something like that, so I was managing a lot of issues after that," he revealed after the race. "I had a really good Lap 1, which was the highlight of the weekend, but yeah frustrating afternoon, trying to drive round the issues.

Every time people talk about RBRs current dominance I'm reminded that McLaren had both Newey and Honda in their pocket at one point in time, but couldn't stop mismanaging their way to the back of the grid.

In the shower this morning I got an idea for a sprint race weekend format. God my life is boring. Anyway, here, pick it apart. Basically it's just replacing FP2 on Friday with a sprint. 1/3 distance, partial points as of now, whatever the sprint currently is. There's no qualifying for the sprint. Grid order is set by the official finishing order of the previous GP. Any grid or time penalties carried over from the previous GP will apply to the GP on Sunday, not the sprint. Saturday and Sunday would be the same. Practice session before qualifying, and then GP on Sunday. Was thinking it could give midfield teams more opportunities to score points in the sprint if faster cars DNF the previous GP. After typing it out though, maybe it would just widen the gap to the midfield. e: Personal Lucubrant fucked around with this message at 16:08 on May 9, 2023 |

Keep the Sprint format exactly the way it is but make them race in F2 cars. Everyone wins. The teams doesn't have to risk a car before the actual GP, FOM gets a race event that is fundamentally different to entice more fans on the Friday and Saturday events, and we get to see actual racing between drivers. This of course makes far too much sense, so it'll never happen. the milk machine posted:ron dennis wanted to have newey take over all of mclaren when he retired but newey said he wouldn’t stick around forever without a timeline Horner gave him the chance to basically run the parts of RBR as he wanted. He built the engineering dept from the ground up, and they constantly let him go off and pursue side projects when he wanted to

All of the drivers past 10th place have nothing to lose and this might be their best chance to get points. The only one I would imagine saying no outright is probably Lewis. But put Ricciardo in his place.

All sprints should be run on the driver's most clapped out tyres from the previous weekend. Sprinklers at every corner. Double points to all drivers not in a car run by a fizzy drinks company.
