By far the best part of this season was the look on Lawrence Stroll's face as he watched the driver he fired in favor of his dipshit son standing on the top of the podium

It's no accident the best races are where tyre management mostly disappears, (safety cars etc) and cars race to the end.

This happens because things like safety cars bunch up the field and throw a wrench in teams' strategy, not because it takes tires out of the equation. If teams had no concerns about tire wear and nothing else happened the races would be boring as poo poo.

The red bull driver program has produced 4 WDCs and 5 different race winners in F1 alone.
It looks rear end right now because 2 different drivers failed when promoted to the top level, leaving quite the gap. You can't just magic into existence more drivers-in-waiting, and it would be a much worse program if they instead had 'spare' of such that they held under contract and let go due to surplus.

It's a better system than waiting for a billionaire to have a failson who played F1 2016 and thought it looked like a fun hobby.

The McLaren driver program has produced 7 WDCs.

Disappointed at F1 archives for only having the 10 minute long condensed newsreel versions of most of their 84 and 85 season races. While there's a bit of nostalgia in remembering these segments being put in to old news broadcasts, I believe I have spoiled some of these races by seeing them in short. I could have looked elsewhere to find them but the whole point of this package was meant to be convenience.

There are some races I get to see in the hour long form, the first of which I am watching now: a very wet Monaco. Hopefully they chose to put this one in its larger form for some reason, like it being interesting perhaps, but wet Monaco just sounds like a disaster.

Would you say you're pisted off about it

They got Brivio from Suzuki’s MotoGP outfit which is something of a coup in my opinion. He brought both Yamaha and Suzuki from nowhere to title winners.

Brivio was supposed to run the F1 team while Cyril moved up to oversee the entire Alpine division. Cyril being poo poo canned entirely is a pretty big surprise.

I always found it weird how many people bought into the Honda engine being a complete dog at the end of their tenure with Mclaren. The first year or two was rough but there was pretty clear signs emerging from that point forward that the engine wasn’t really holding the Mclaren back.

Continuing to employ Stoffel Vandoorne was the biggest red flag IMO
