It’s all becoming more like my ideas of how F1 should be structured. The basic concept is everyone must consider the totality of the enterprise not just their little world. Liberty owns the product, the teams are franchises that must perform to a level that allows them to remain in, Liberty can take away rights to…

F1 badly needs more teams, its just that until now with the new cost cap, entering without lots of money was suicide. Right now is the first moment from, lets say 2000 where getting in is a good idea. Teams have been bought and sold in the last 20 years and the price for them have always been around $150 million. All…

Girls!

Liberty and the FIA still have the right to pick and choose who gets in and who must go.

I have always seen this building as the perfect administrative, bureaucratic, accounting building NOT a place for new ideas and innovation. There is nothing motor sport/competition in this thing. It almost seems to be a feminine form like a Henry Moore statue. At the same time it has the ying-yang thing going on about…

That Renault engine has become amazing! McLaren and Renault have it, next year, maybe more will…

YES! More drama man-on-man sorta speak. Less diffusion of everyone at once. I think they stopped it because, to the non-fan it was boring. So of course let’s make the non-fan happy. It also might have taken too much time as measured against something.

Whenever a great team (or great people that make up a team) start to falter badly, you always have to ask one question, is there a rules change coming in the next few years? If the answer is yes you now know why Ferrari is such shit. If you have followed F1 for a few rules changes you must understand that this moment…

The big picture requires a little small picture thinking, or so it would seem. The fundamental truth is this issue of money and who gets the most is the only true metric where a team leader can be measured. How much money did your team make relative to all the others? At the end of the day the team principal has that…

Though you may not drive a big Cadillac,
gangster whitewalls, TV antennas in the back…

Strongly agree! Love the pink! But I also love the transition that F1 made just a few years ago. Today we have the yellow of Renault the orange of McLaren and the Pink of Racing Point, but a few years ago there was an upset at how too many cars were favoring black. Pink is the new black! But in the best way possible.

For the last 11 years F1 teams have been picking from several overarching car designs when coming up with their cars. In the last 8 years this could be said to have turned into just two design forms. One is the Adrian Newey design and lets call the other the Mercedes design concept. Most teams have been coping the…

I think F1 should do what is necessary to continue with some version of the end celebration. In my minds-eye I see three separate elevated podiums, one for each driver just large enough for one person to stand on. There is a short set of steps up to each one and a short railing around it. They can still assume the…

I think this could have been even more exciting! What if Jasons parents DID try to kill Bill Bull! What if the three of them invented the ultimate sexual position and called it the Ciba-Geigy ! And… Bill Bull was going to share it with his gay partner in South Carolina! The two tiny Torchinskys fly into a rage! The…

I genuinely believe that once the greater part of the US economy is open everyone will see being closed is financially suicidal and the US GP will happen. Everyone is guessing in favor of whatever is happening now will continue, I doubt it.

I think it will be Carlos Sainz, when he arrives Carlos drops his pants and bends over…
Or maybe it will be Frédéric Vasseur, because that would be funny.

But…kerosene is a liquid, liquids don’t burn! Foolishness!!!

This does add an interesting dynamic to who goes where with the most significant drama at Mercedes. Toto Wolff sells himself as personal friends with Lewis Hamilton, Hamilton says the same, “the question is where will Toto be next year” said Hamilton when asked where he will be. Toto has snowed Hamilton and Lewis…

I think Honda might be a big factor in what Red Bull are asking for. Honda is close but who wants to be part of F1 when the rules keep changing just as you’re about to start winning regularly?
What really amazes me is the notion that Red Bull is willing to keep things as they are, with a high likelihood of Mercedes…

I get the idea of adding contrast to a contest subject, but… what about fighting the contrast? I would suggest, during a roll, you switch it up and open the lens all the way and rock it at a 2000th of a second just to let more light hit the film and give you more mid-tones. Even if you choose to push the film a change…
