Formula 1 2022 (Will Contain Spoilers)

Even still i would of wanted to have been a true champion rather than a wooden one.

This year yes he has deserved it and this is his true 1st championship. His 2021 one will always be seen a sham.

Apart from cheating with the cost cap overspend.

Well yeah there is that too

Won't last as long

The hand of god dragged on because video evidence showed it for what it was - a travesty of justice with the perpetrator eventually admitting he cheated. So there was deliberate hand ball and the referee made a mistake in allowing the goal

There's no chance Red Bull will admit to anything because it wasn't their fault, only the referee stuffed up.

Except that a good old whinge surpasses everything and on it goes.......................................... ....................................................... ....................and goes..................and goes...let’s be big boys, get over it and move on in the hope that there will soon be another ‘ONE' worthy of national adulation.

Exactly, even taking the overspend into consideration.

It's as well for him this year that Ferrari and MB tripped over themselves in different ways this season - because I think it means that the gulf in total performance of RBR team including their drivers - has far exceeded any likely effect of the overspend.

If things were closer then it would arguably be a tainted championship. But I don't think it has. Ferrari showed huge promise and then as a team lost momentum - while Mercedes stuttered at the start and have been struggling the whole season to catchup.

2021 is a different matter. And it isn't a sham - it's a simple mess-up by the FIA - which is no fault of the World Champion.

The odd thing with 2021 now is that if Red Bull are so self righteous about the comments made by Ted Kravitz then maybe deep down they feel it is a sham.

My sentiments entirely.

So F1 is all so predictable and boring these days?
How about : George and Mercedes gift K.Mag and Haas pole position!
You couldn't make it up!

The low posting (this year) is a reflection of the LH fanboys we used to have here. Not real F1 fans.

Glad to see Magnussen on pole

Give over

Am I wrong?

Very low comentary compared to previous years.

However, I guess that is all due to disgruntlement with the FIA and not the fact that we do not have a Brit (LH) at the front.

It just hasn't been that great of a championship battle. Last season was epic. Whoever you supported. This season has been boring as hell

Because RB has dominated instead of MB

I’m a Ferrari supporter so life sucks for me.

 

[AMGeed]

^ Spot on.
Nothing to do with LH not having much success this season.

Here's hoping Mercedes get their car ready and competitive for the 2023 season.
And maybe Ferrari can find someone who knows a bit about strategy.
Then maybe a team can challenge RB and put some interest back into F1.

Well at least they were true to form today and made another howler

Easy to dominate when you don't play fair

But MB didn’t dominate last season. Drivers level on points with 1 race to go.

As said, this season was a done deal around the half way point so less exciting. Last year was awesome regardless of the farce at the last race. THAT’s why last years thread flourished.

 

[Mactech]

I understand Gunter said the car was such a dog, they needed a Great Dane to get pole Most of the rest was censored.....

I ask myself if RB are really that stupid that they would deliberately overspend (and in the grand scheme of things the sum is peanuts) and believe that it would not be picked up? However, they will pay the price next year.

Hopefully Mercedes are up there and Lewis can try win his 9th title or Verstappen can try win his 2nd
