Is the complete proposal available to us anywhere?
Because this article isn’t clear about if the proposal means the top 5 teams will have to produce their own power units themselves as well.

Is that your motivation for voting Trump?
Fucking hell… °–°

Good luck world, this is going to affect more than just the US…

Withdrawal will be even worse…

Because VER doesn’t learn otherwise.

Fucking finally, 2x 10s penalty!

VER needs to be DSQ-ed. Guy is fucking dangerous with his red mist.

True. But when he stays in front of NOR, he’s in control, so I think that’ll be his objective throughout the coming races. That’s WDC guaranteed.

My guess is he’ll be #1 after first corner, because VER will only focus on cutting off NOR. VER is not out to win races anymore, he just needs to be in front of NOR to win the WDC.

Hatred is not only a dumb, but also a very destructive way of living.
Self-destruction guaranteed. Let go of it and save yourself. And others.

Driver error this time, took too much curb, as the replay showed.
But certainly not helpful for Merc…

VER possibly having to take a new engine might add some spice to this weekend…

I agree with your assessment.
My solution in this case would be: 5 second penalty to NOR, like they issued and 10 second penalty to VER for driving unfairly and with ill intent for the millionth time.

I agree 100%.
RIC was used by Red Bull to steal that point in order to tip the balance in their favour. That one point means that VER can finish second in every coming (sprint)race and still win the WDC. If NOR had gotten that point, he would be WDC no matter what, if he would go on to win every coming (sprint)race, even if VER took 2nd every time.
So it was an important point. NOR needs something extra now to win. It is not only up to him anymore.
Mekies tried to make us believe that they wanted to give RIC a proud farewell, but what they actually did, was to show that RIC and VCARB are still Red Bull’s little bitches. There was no honour in that fastest lap. It was a hand puppet action. RIC’s explanation afterwards said it all with his “early christmas present” story. He never mentioned it being something he wanted or thought worthwhile. He just hoped he would help VER win the WDC. He basically admitted being VER’s joker. Besides that, the simple fact that everybody knew that it would be a controversial action, means that it could never be an honorable farewell. It would be doubted from the moment RIC was boxing. They all knew, and still went ahead. In my opinion it even degraded RIC’s last race. He didn’t deserve to be screwed like that. But that point was too important for Red Bull, so it had to be done.
So yeah, second teams should be illegal.

Race Against The Machine

RB ≠ RBR
As in: Red Bull Racing (RBR) is the team Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez are driving for, and then there is their sister-team RB* (RB) with Yuki Tsunoda and Daniel Ricciardo as drivers.
It’s a bit confusing of course, but I’d like to see more people using the abbreviations correctly here on Lemmy.
But renaming Toro Rosso/Alpha Tauri into RB was not a clever move by the team.

*edit for more accuracy: RB’s full team name is VISA Cash App Racing Bulls (VCARB), so it’s not surprising people are calling them RB. But that does cause more confusion.

That’s actually a better idea!

Ah thank you, that explains it.
