That is a confirmed terrorist attack apparently.
One that presumably happened as F1 is on this weekend.
Given F1 would be such a fantastic target too, it would seem insane if this race goes ahead. They should pack up and go home right now.
4/4 cars affected by engine problems in less than two GP weekends. No luck or bad design?
Might be both. The RB's just had fuel issues but Gasly and Tsunoda's look like outright PU failures.
I suppose that to aim to the faster / better cars and try to achieve better racing is a nonsense, and F1 should realize this as soon as possible.Hoffman900 wrote: ↑25 Mar 2022, 16:20I know why, but when drivers can't race because they are nursing their brakes, what did they really "fix"?BassVirolla wrote: ↑25 Mar 2022, 14:17I see it more like some compromise made by the teams, and not a rules matter.Hoffman900 wrote: ↑24 Mar 2022, 17:41
It is, but you can’t have better racing if drivers only get a few attempts at out braking a competitor. It seems like a classic not seeing the forest for the trees from the rules makers.
Brakes haven't been the limiting factor in decades and they shouldn’t be in 2022.
The cars until 2021 were using huge amounts of air to blow through the wheels to achieve outwash, and a by-product was cooling the brakes.
Now the outwash through the wheels is not allowed, teams are "choking" their cooling requirements in the brakes, as it is detrimental for aero and not beneficial.
