Ferrari was all of a sudden testing a new setup experiment ... everyone in the paddock kinda knows what happened if you read through the various comments ..... The directive put out made it clear RB and Merc knew what ferrari was up to ..And now that major performance gain loophole is illegal ..And as a result Ferrari,s straight line dominance is gone .... I say again, make of it what you will

Show me evidence of them cheating? I am not saying they did not bend the rules, but "Innocent until proven guilty" comes to mind.

I remembers someone saying they liked cigarette advertising (think it was Camel) and wished F1 would lift the ban on cigarette branding.

As an aside 1) Many of the F1 racing articles appear on the Autosport website and 2) A number of key staff have left Autosport

It's hard to avoid...but I definitely wouldn't be looking on this thread to see if others are watching highlights too!! Nothing worse knowing the result in advance of viewing the race.
