Did Adrian Newey have some sort of medical emergency we didn't know about?
Neah, it's just his winter-beater bat mobile.
Nothing to see there, boys, just a test-bed for Honda shake'n'bake engines!

Blaming Netflix for the current state of F1 really is the laziest, most tired argument that takes the least effort.

I'm confident you can do better. :thumbsup:
Nah, I'm actually pretty lazy. Often the simplest answer is the correct one.

McLaren upgrades will have their drivers moving up the grid and fighting for wins. Meanwhile your guys will continue to be just midfield boys...where they belong.

Writing on X, McLaren CEO Zak Brown: "Happy to share that Gianpiero Lambiase will join the McLaren Mastercard Formula 1 Team as Chief Racing Officer, reporting into Team Principal Andrea Stella, when his contract ends no later than 2028."
"He joins an incredible team under Andrea's leadership, and I'm excited about what we can achieve together."

The $15m benefit F1 gets from its volunteers

Formula 1 benefits from a contribution from volunteer officials that is worth around $15.5million per year, a new report has revealed.

The FIA has just published a landmark research document that, for the first time, delves into the scale and importance of its volunteers that help in the running of F1 weekends.

Analysing the involvement of unpaid officials - from flag marshals and observers to extrication teams and medical personnel - the work conducted by the FIA University has shone a light on the scale of structure in place.

It has found that it takes an average of 838 volunteers to help organise and run each round of the F1 world championship, which means more 20,000 individuals need to be called upon over the course of a season.

The costs for FIA member clubs associated with recruiting, training and delivering this army of assistance is $12.9m.

It's just 3 races so don't raise your hopes too high for your yellow team, you sound as if you're just wanting MAX to be behind the Larens rather than fighting for the championship. He finished ahead of one of them last year while both your papaya should have walked it.
