3. A short commentary (below) on actual issues

I am lost. Like most viewers, I suppose. The past few races I have been watching in amazement without quite understanding what is going on. How can it be that in a multi billion dollar business like F1: 

• The most successful team has a 60-year-old wind tunnel, a relic of the Cold War. It's been good enough to produce some fantastic cars, but it has its limitations. So anything under five degrees it can't run it. Anything over 25 degrees, it becomes pretty unstable

• The sole tyre supplier cannot produce the right tyre for a circuit, so that a Grand Prix does not resemble a lottery.

• A driver answers to his engineer "I have no clue what you are saying" when he gets iinstructions on pre-agreed strategies.

The season is clearly too long. Everyone is getting tired of each other, especially after triple headers. Hence there was more disturbing noise off-track than action on the circuits. 

Qatar was, like Monaco, an utterly sleep-inducing race. Commentators are also bogged down. Their fantasy books are empty, the Brits are compensating the lack of action by shouting even more after every DRS pass - which has nothing to do with overtaking.

Sainz has done his best in recent months to show that John Elkann made the wrong decision, but Leclerc certainly needed his Abu Dhabi success to take any doubts away.

Verstappen is starting to lose his patience and at times his common sense. The Piastri dive was unwise. 

Russell was probably told to let Hamilton pass in turn 9 of the last lap; I can't believe this was a fight for 4th place.

Quite a few men we have seen for the last time in F1. The Perez saga will now come to an end, we may hope. 

Lawson clearly has better nerves than Colapinto.

Prediction for 2025? Zak Brown to choose Piastri.

Go to  The format for interesting proposals on circuits, cars, qualification, points system and regulations.

Go to  "Best of all-time" for (another) ranking on F1 drivers, but this time one with unique criteria, a modus to compare all decades in F1 in a fair way and a solution to the distorted image that car and team related DNFs give to rankings on Formula 1 drivers.
