Chase Carey & Jean Todt sent a letter to Ferrari opponents defending the confidential agreement. Todt claims he supported the thorough FIA engine investigation. The 7 non Ferrari teams will meet Friday at Melbourne to discuss next steps.

It's not how start but how you finish.
AMuS
Mercedes made modifications to rear brake ducts after FIA TD. And they decided to use the new DAS system at #AUSGP despite protest threats by Red Bull. Engineers expect the protest to be lodged either after quali or race for max damage.
It's not how start but how you finish.
This year's calender for f1 can go in the bin the entire season has been compromised by the virus fi is in a very difficult position.The health and safety of all should be the only vehicle on the starting grid.
Redbull bitches about everything that anyone else comes up with, because everything they do is above board and legal no gray areas.
Question: Are there any Ferrari fans that actually drink Redbull? And why?

Changes aren't permanent........But change is.
ALL LIVES MATTER... EVEN YOURS
They already have enough problems to deal with as all the non-Ferrari teams are ganging up against them over the 2019 engine, plus the corona virus blockade, so maybe better to keep a low profile! If this season ever gets going properly, at least our expectations have been floored in advance!
Going by the consensus, the Ferraris would do well at Albert Park by being able to generate good downforce and tyre temp, whilst avoiding the tyre graining that usually affected their cars. Hoping for a surprise with their performance, but would be expecting the Silver Arrows to dominate just like most of us believe as well - fingers crossed for a pleasant surprise!
I live 45kms away from the track :)
During the H1N1 pandemic between April 2009 and August 2010 203,000 people died. This outbrake covered most of the 2009 season and half the 2010 season. I don't recall races being canceled, do you. Still think you aren't being manipulated by the media?
Just finished a 12oz lol. It tastes good.

BREAKING | three more F1 team members are in quarantine due to coronavirus fears.
That's on top of the two members from Haas and one from McLaren who were placed in quarantine last night.
It's not how start but how you finish.
Dude, you're talking about a time period of one and half years during the swine flue outbreak. This Covid-19 has been known worldwide since around New Year's Day. That's what? Three plus months and look what it has done so far? You can't compare the danger because no one really knows. And it's not slowing down.
The measures taken in Sweden and Denmark for example now have never been done before. They are historical. Ban on gathering of 500 and more people (Sweden) and closing schools and universities etc (Denmark). Those are just two examples. If both countries have had F1 races, they would be cancelled.
I hate the MSM as much as the next guy but they don't know either.
I don't think the race will happen :(
I'm fully expecting them to cancel it In the next 24 hrs.

Australian f1 race bordering on cancellation.
From a selfish point of view, if it does get cancelled and we are not in a position to win. At least it will not give Mercs a head start in the points.
We are getting our upgrade package for Dutch GP, with china cancelled and vietnam looking likely to get cancelled.
Until then it looks like damage limitation
McLaren has withdrawn from the AUS GP
Wise decision from Mclaren. It's downright crazy and irresponsible to held this race.
All four Haas team members have tested 'negative' for Covid-19.
We also need to remember that this is a virus with incubation period of 14 days. And there are many reports out there of people who tested 'negative' at first, contracted the disease after few days.
Motogp has cancelled three races, Serie A got cancelled, but F1 management decided to have a race with full crowd attendance.
Also big thumbs to up Hamilton for speaking his mind and telling it how it is, for this people, who're mostly bankers anyway, "cash is king". Human lives are not that important to them.

Hmmm, I wonder if this will be classed as a non championship race?
Ross Brawn did say if a team can't make it it will not be counted towards the championship. However McLaren are there and chose not to take part for their own reasons so we see how it pans out.
