The other question no seems to be talking about yet- have the new regulations worked as planned. Can cars follow and pass? We won't know any of that until they hit the track. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

I believe the first picture of he Williams was their "show car" to display their planned livery. Here is the new Williams on the track...first domed nose we've seen No, Daoism isn't a religion | |||

Yeah, the FW44 on the prior page was a livery launch render. The real car looks better & more svelte. Thinner sidepods & looks great in the daylight. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Looks like there are two main schools of thought so far. 1)The large undercut with larger/longer tunnels and 2) the more blunt sidepods which trail off much like the former cars that had blown exhaust No, Daoism isn't a religion | |||

Surely that will lead to more consistency. They should consider letting a randomly chosen fan from the stands act as a steward at each race too, but only for 30 minutes then rotate in another. WTaF??? You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

I don't see ruling by committee being an improvement or how it would guarantee a better decision being made at a particular event. This has been caused by a decision made at one event by one person. A better and more fair call would have been to have thrown the red flag to allow the clean up, and all cars could have fitted new tires and raced to the finish for more than one lap. There should be a new rule applied that could easily overcome these problems with lapped cars, safety and fairness. Instead of sending them around to catch back up, taking up a lap or more behind the pace car, and having to wait for workers to get off the racing surface, make them fall behind lead lap cars within 10 laps of the end. That can be done safely behind the pace car and with workers still on the track. The change they have made did nothing to address the issue except to force Michael Masi to fall on his sword as a symbolic sacrifice for what happened at that last race. ^^^ Good to see Otmar end up there without having to take a year off, as often happens. He has done more with less than anyone out there and kept his former team together through a series of owners in almost constant crisis. Now, can he manage the French propensity to shoot themselves in the foot and make a true factory team stop operating like a budget starved backmarker operation? Flavio was the only other guy to do it although he was a bit light in the ethics department at times. We'll have to wait and see if Ferrari can turn the corner too. Nationalistic management hasn't worked out too well for them in the past.This message has been edited.

What do you think Bernie Ecclestone would say about committees and decisions by same? "Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." ~Robert A. Heinlein | |||

Andretti says they are going to enter F-1 in 2024. Not much more known at this time. https://www.autosport.com/f1/n...24-f1-entry/8294825/ ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

Well now, that is confusing as hell. Alpine running BWT pink colors. "Pacifism is a shifty doctrine under which a man accepts the benefits of the social group without being willing to pay - and claims a halo for his dishonesty." ~Robert A. Heinlein | |||

The more blue livery looks pretty good. Those that haven't been keeping up will probably mistake the pink Alpine for the Aston. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Alpine will run that livery for two races this year. The rest will be in blue. Also, Mario Andretti did a few interviews and gave a few more details. You can check it out here: https://racer.com/2022/02/19/e...dretti-f1-game-plan/ | |||
