2022 Formula 1 Season Paddock

No Russia, but added Miami... is Miami a one time deal or a new track going forward?

 

Grass is good

 

During yesterday’s commentary someone had a good idea for DRS, they said that drivers only get say 60 seconds of DRS each race and they can use it as and when they want.

I think that would work pretty well.

 

kind of like Indys PtP button. that would be cool see or test

 

If I were the king I would let them run it whenever they wanted and also allow changes to the front wing as long as its the driver controlling it. Just like pilots trimming the aero on an airplane. Id also allow refueling if they want the option and Id get rid of the stupid tire restrictions. Run whatever tires Pirelli has to offer and then use as many as they need.

 

That would be an interesting one to see. Obviously there's a benefit to fresh tires but they'd also have to contend with pit stop time and potentially recovering places lost afterwards.

 

Exactly

 

Not sure about the "new F1" but that right there is reason to not do it. They never (used to) look to a good idea from another series. So we get stupid crap like DRS.

 

I think they have certain zones for safety reasons. So I wonder if DRS would be dangerous outside the zones. Dunno why they can't use it at will.

 

FIA guy in yesterdays test said it is there supposedly to allow the following driver to be able to pull alongside the driver in front before the upcoming corner.

if that’s the case they need to tweak it some more!

I just lost a lot of respect for these guys….WTF

Are they really that desperate for money???

 

Gunther posing with toy boats or kids play houses had me cracking up in DTS. Whatever it takes!

 

Ehh, just them making money wearing weird clothes.

 

Alice in wonderland was the first thing I thought when I saw them threads

 

I’ll die on this very hill. Two tires inside the white lines at all times Makes the most sense to me. 2 warnings and then its 5 sec penalties for each infraction after.

 

I heard that 100 times in the last 20 years..lol

 

I would be ok with that!

 

Yep, plain and simple if you leave the track there will be consequences.
