You all should watch F2 this year for the below reason.

Bearman will replace Hamilton at Ferrari.
Antonelli will replace whoever ends up in the Mercedes vacancy.

I know Lulu’s diversity agenda at Ferrari has already been discussed here, but ran across this recent quote from him:

Hamilton said his diversity push was a key topic in his talks with Ferrari chairman John Elkann.
"Of course, [if] you look at Ferrari, they have a lot of work to do, so I've already made that a priority in speaking with John," Hamilton replied. "And they're super excited to work on it also."

Well, it is odd they wouldn’t provide any updates or even a status call with their now largest strategic partner, Ford.

And it seems Ford was growing very impatient with the radio silence and put the word out to RBR to either provide transparency or make this go away.

Wait. ???

I’ve been assured that there was no evidence and that there was no settlement/cover up and that an «independent » investigation made sure of that.. so you are telling me the most logical conclusion was not just pure conspiracy theory ? No way…

I never thought I would remind cypher that quick !


Anyway, let’s wait to see what these evidences are.

Honestly I have no idea. I don’t have any other info than what was posted by DCV.

But as I said yesterday I was expecting something like that to happen. Just not that quickly

I haven’t mentioned anything on the Horner topic recently, but there were a few comments that came out yesterday that were pretty telling.

In short, everyone in the paddock knows who was/is involved (she is part of the “at the track team” and “most people know her”) and the general consensus was “there won’t be an appeal”.

Now Joe Seward posts the below (read it carefully):

Or RBR did update them but Ford had to make a public statement in order to virtue signal.

Ford: "What's up with this story?"
RBR: "It's rubbish.  Well clear it all up before Bahrain."
Ford: "The internet is asking us why we haven't taken a stance so we're gonna issue a 'concern' statement to cover our asses."
RBR: "Cool, do what you gotta do."

I saw this remarked upon by the F1TV crew. What telemetry? Top speed? It might just be a slippery car...no secret everyone looked at that after the insane RBR pace of the last two years. What's to be gained from turning up the power in FP2? It doesn't make any sense. Maybe the car is just quick.

another remarkable thing.

the speed difference in between No-DRS -> DRS in all the team is pretty similar now...

Castiglione is claiming that whatever 'thing' RB had discovered with the DRS, the other teams are also doing it now. He had a big smile saying so, like meaning it was a 'trick'
