Very true. But Red Bull seems to revel in the environment and does whatever it can to raise the bar.

To be honest I think that most of F1's issues and problems can be more easily, and simply, explained by simply referencing "seven deadly sins." You don't have to try very hard to think of solid examples for at least 5 of them (and not too much harder to nab the other two.)

1. wrath (see Bernie at regular intervals)
2. greed (:ROFL: Seriously?)
3. sloth
4. pride (yeah...)
5. lust (have you seen the wives and girlfriends?)
6. envy (visit the pits of any team without a Merc engine.)
7. gluttony.

Just get it over with and put the extra 2 sq feet of material over the tire already!

They expect me to want to PAY to see this thing in person? Ugh and Yawn.



Wow.

After Sunday's race, the best way to describe those is "fragile"
