    THE CAR performed,.....the pit stop ****-up brought the car in 9th behind the butler. Lewis is no "great" wonder boy due to his 7 WDC titles.

    What about the poles and wins? I'm just joking! Ferrari held 1st place with the worst pit stops until last race. Another win for Merc in that category. Lewis needs to promote no masks . no social distancing , and everyone will do the opposite. Almost as good as a him finding the vaccine !

    Vettel says the recent pit stop errors are probably due to older equipment which needs replacing.

    I hope the savings on not paying him $50 million will go towards new pit equipment & even a bonus to the crew when they do a 1 sec save.

    The development of pit equipment is frozen next year.

    The pit crew isn't frozen all though they seem to be when changing tires. I believe it's them more than equipment that needs help.

    Supposedly Bottas took out any mention of Merc from his IG account and Russel removed mention of Williams from his.

    I don't follow them so I can't attest to what they looked like before.

    Wonder if true lol

    The probability of anything happening is close to 0. The only that could shut his mouth is if Mick absolutely destroys him and shows him his place. Getting in shady Russian billionaires was a bad idea. Ferrari should've bought the team and made it the junior team, along with an additional seat at Alfa Romeo. How do we plan on testing all these promising and talented drivers like Ilott, Shwartzman, Gianluca Petecof, Arthur Leclerc and the like when we control a grand total of 4 seats of which only 2 can be used for getting young drivers?

    He isn't fired. Just transferred to Haas. Ferrari is actually working on a loophole for the budget cap. According to Italian law, you can't just fire people and especially during the pandemic, the govt has made sure of it. With the budget cap, you will be forced to get rid of personnel because it simply isn't necessary to have as many people as before. So, Ferrari came up with a plan to share employees with Haas and Alfa Romeo. A primitive type of this system was in effect even in last year when Simone Resta was working for Alfa Romeo. With this, Ferrari will have data from 6 cars and can determine better on what development path to choose.

    Any updates on Ferrari potentially competing in IndyCar?

    If they do, that will be another team they can divert personnel and resources due to the budget cap.

    Last I heard, they still were in talks. Indycar doesn't really require nearly as much personnel as Ferrari would have to lay off even after transferring them to Haas and Alfa Romeo. They might even consider running for both Indy and WEC.

    Hopefully the last we'll see of that moron. He should give Brembo a goat as a send-off gift for the loyal support over the years.

    #Russell2021

    Not that I'll watch this weekend. Especially considering the BS grid penalty Leclerc got. Pointless now.

    I doubt I will watch the race either, especially with the 3 grid penalty.

    And hope to see Russell in Mercedes too.

    When would Ferrari have stable management?
    Anyways it’s good that he resigned.Let’s see who would takeover for the long term. I think Mattia Binotto will apply for this position & play politics to gain the position.

    If there’s no improvement next year & challenge in 2021, Mattia resignation next to follow up.
