The saga that never ends until maybe they let Horner go which it appears they don't want to or not yet anyway.
Doubts about weather the investigation into Horner was truly 'independent' As there other article seems to have pointed out the QC that was apparently used (Name unknown), might not have been as independent as the investigation made out. Internal investigation apparently had him bag to rights you are gone, independent Horner says. Which is accurate an right, well its anyones guess but the rumours are still going on... |

either these Dutch (apologies if I'm incorrect, I was told they were the same people who having been writing stuff since day 1) journalists know something we don't, or there's nothing happening with RB and CH
RB hasn't released any statements? |

F1 drivers are really set apart from average people with their mental constitution, not in their physical training, IMO. It's the adrenaline addiction, the spatial awareness, the true connection with the car that sets them apart, not the fact that they have a PT train their core constantly. Human bodies adapt to physical demands and most humans could be put on some sort of training regimen to withstand those forces. But it's what's going on in their head that separates them from everyone else...

2021 he drove a slower car, and yes, I believe he won fair and square - and he didnt need Checo to crash into Ham on purpose like Bot did to help him. |

And still out drove him. It wasn't great...but he didn't do that well against Riccardo in the Red Bull either...sure he won his first race but at the expense of Daniel who was on track to win until he was pit stopped an extra time to gift the win to Verstappen. I don't want to draw too much attention to Verstappens mediocre time alongside Ricciardo...but making out Hamilton isn't special is a hard sell especially if the idea is to make Verstappen out to the better driver. |

Ver was a 17 year old his first year and the same caveats of new car, new track can be made, and at 17 vs say 22/23/24 is an exponential difference in mentality and maturity. We saw at age 23 when Max won his first one how different he was...and then we've seen even more of that in 2022, 2023 and seeing another step up so far in 2024. And the records Max is breaking with the most parity across every level and the most competitive field ever in F1, says all you need to know about his driving ability. Max vs his teammates. |

The latest gossip :
So apparently the RB top are afraid that U2 might write a song about it? (something with someones brother being someones son in law....) Ok, funny and sad at the same time of course...but the suggested song title is hilarious

True. Verstappen was a class by himself. Still is and will be for a while. Which is weird why RBR had to cheat with accounting to help him. But cheat they did. That's two asterisks on Verstappen's career. But show me a driver without an asterisk, I'll show you a mediocre driver.

A minor infraction, as the rules state is just that...minor. It was nothing like the secret tests which provided a direct competitive advantage or the Ferrari fuel scandal, or when Ham was actually disqualified for actively cheating when he rode too low at COTA last year.

An infraction --irrespective of degree-- means outside the rules. In other words, cheating.

"Red Bull have denied rumours that Christian Horner is set to be sacked ahead of the Australian Grand Prix, reiterating he has the “full support of the shareholders”.
there are a lot of nameless faces - who is "Red Bull" that made that statement. surely they can name someone? the receptionist? the only named people are these Dutch journalists who keep having their story refuted no idea what's true and what's not https://www.crash.net/f1/news/104557...-australian-gp |

Yes you can recover a bit quicker in your 20s (nowhere near as quickly as a teenager) but you are also discounting the incredible benefits of experience. People like Alonso slow down time in the moment so that he has 0.2 seconds to react when others have 0.1. |
