That’s fricked up. Basically another summer break. Good for the drivers getting rest though. I guess.

This is so dumb. I think this one will feel even worse than the summer break. Just as the season is getting really spicy it shuts down again for a whole arse month. Soak it up this weekend.
Just saw where KMag is back joking and F*cking S*it up and wearing his “to whom it may concern, F*ck yourself” T-shirt.
Also, Red Bull’s PR guy is shadowing Danny RIC and his VCARB PR Lady…?

RB going with a special livery while Red Bull is cancelling a special livery because they think the extra weight will cost them time. RB isn’t even pretending to try to win. I don’t think the denim looks particularly good either
This is nuts to me, considering where they were 12 months ago to now opting out of a special livery because of the very minimal performance loss. How the mighty have fallen.

A lot of talk this weekend about the McLaren rear wing. Supposedly it flexes at high speeds giving them a mini-DRS. FIA has said that they have passed all test so it is legal for now, plan to test it more going forward

McLaren special livery for this weekend looks great in my opinion, now they just need to get rid of the chrome hub caps.

Most teams will have one by the end of the season. I think almost all teams will have a flexible front wing this weekend.

Yeah, but doesn't the FIA measure this and give x number of mm of movement?
Feels like someone was penalized a few years back for too much movement, so seriously doubt the FIA hasn't tested the wing.

The only penalty that I can remember off hand was Hamilton’s car getting somewhat in trouble to a DRS flap that was a little too large maybe?

Maybe that was it...

Missed FP1... FP2 at 8, so will be able to watch then.
Anything crazy happen? Russeel put it in the wall again?

I guess “fix your fricking car” only works in one direction.

Mclaren should send that meme to Horner...
fricking ridiculous that the wing is in spec, the FIA can't find anything technically wrong, but you need to stop it from doing that... So what if they don't? How will they judge that they are in violation of whatever decree, by video alone?
