I read your article just now and not quite sure what to make of it, the BBC's take says their rear wing complies with the rules. I thought legal means legal and illegal means illegal...so blurred...

In a perfect world sure but its this 'grey' area that McLaren's 'twin gaps' is what fails with FIA who are saying the official DRS can only be used one second from the car in front. The mcLaren one was opening those small gaps with no one in front of them thus why FIA have stepped in because its seen as an addition to main DRS in spite of passing the FIA weight and load checks.

You also see it in the media, RB complaining at the FIA that McLarens wings are too flexible. If you have the ability to match that, you keep silent and make new wings that do the same or better. But the way things are going, NOR will destroy Max and get the WDC. With all the sprint races next to the normal races, there are still a lot of points to be given out. I don't expect RB to solve their balance problems this year.

My prediction:

1. NOR
2. PIA
3. LEC
4. VER (and he needs some luck for this place)
5. HAM
6. SAI
7. RUS
8. PER
9. ALB
10. ALO

NOR still has a problem with his starts and RB seems to be coming back.
I don't think NOR can overcome Max's lead unless a DNF is involved.

Oh man MAX is main heading on the news for saying the f word, FFS is it slow news day on these F1 news items when I wanted to see the FP1 times LOL oh dear what a crime

Just flew back from Singapore. Was going to stay as I had box seats for the GP but needed to be back. Can see a few turns from my company's office.

Glad to see the FIA starting to apply the rules as people complained last year about flexi RBR everything which basically didnt flex compared to the Mclaren this year. Despite having a car so much faster they still have very few wins to show for it and that comes down to the caliber of driver. I think the pressure is starting to mount onto Nor who is nowhere near as good a driver as Pi and it will continue to frustrate him which will hopefully lead to more errors and/or DNFs (maybe between the two even).
Seems RBR is starting to make some progress which ideally will be enough for the WDC, and think the testing time could shake things up next season as Mclaren will have very little and if Ferrari overtake RBR, then RB will have a lot of time at it's disposal for 2025 car dev whereas the other two with lost singificantly.

RB is doomed. You can see the frustrations almost daily from Max.

Can they go back to the car that they had last year or atleast mimic it? Very surprised how slow he's been.

Man, do you think 1950s Ferrari and F1 was policing speech?

And shortly after they announce it, the biggest name in F1 currently breaks the rule? What a cheesy script.

Also, I reject the idea that your employer should be controlling your speech. Let people protest with dollars

I heard the RB20 is one second quicker than last years 19 so however tempting that may be it's not an option.
