You should write a book Dickie.
Try a conspiracy theme, you got that genre cornered.

Again, Ferrari is too stupid to play catch-up no matter the time frame

They are still not going with the split turbo design next year

Exactly ! And nowhere a view of what is happening in front of you.

Looks like a concrete cage ...

Thinking Belgium GP '98 when DC lost it, nearly half the field was wiped out and easily done...when you can't see ahead.

When you can't see even Schumi hits Coulthard later, was angry with himself but still took it out on DC

Accidents come out of nowhere and to think Nelson P helped this dope climb up the F1 ladder

M5Rick · 11-30-2021, 05:07 AM

Kees, a well known ex-Bridgestone engineer who worked alongside Schumacher at Ferrari has said RB shouldn't worry too much about the Ham 'rocket' PU as grip will be utmost with the many high speed bends and the straight won't be the most important factor.
Honda have their own rocket PU ready for Max and RB are still do decide whether to use it (with grid drop) after the evaluation of this new track in practice though Kees thinks it may not be needed here.

M5Rick · 11-30-2021, 05:52 AM

Alonso together with Max thinks the paltry five grid drop for Hamilton taking his new 'rocket' PU is wrong. It's his fifth one this year and both have said the penalty is illogical and works in Mercedes' favour so no surprise there.
Double world champ Alonso commented on Spanish newspaper AS that anyone who exceeds a certain amount of PU's should be sent to the back of the grid.

Fewer restrictive safety equipment then and larger cockpits meant a quick exit and understandably NP did it quicker there than in practicing it
