If the Badass, the feminist power read this.... If a man had said that, the whole earth would have dumped a dumpster of insults on him but it's a woman, she can. As we say at home, Mintu wears the pants at home but it's the first time I can see a woman said something about the profession of his hubby in F1, soccer or... . The extension of social networks in the private sphere shows that nothing of the personal reflections remain personal. Don't search me on f*, twi* or insta*, I'm not on and I live in peace.

Senna and Prost were also going to cry in the skirts of JM Balestre and C Whiting, at the time, the radio did not exist. Psychological warfare has always existed

Personally, driver's relatives (Kimi's wife, LH's father, for example) need to comply with very few rules, one of which is:
"Don't criticize any of your driver's competitors, ANYTIME". Neutral or positive comments, OK. But they never come off good when they criticize.
A. They're ignorant of the circumstances
B. Regardless of being right or wrong, they'll always come off bad.
Let the drivers settle things out.
Have a good one,

LH has always been a sore loser.
It's pathetic.

BTW, Arrivabene was bitching at MB for insinuating Kimi spun Ham deliberately.
Sometimes it seems the predominate age maturity of the personnel in F1 is ten years old.

I tend to agree, but the producers are not doing him any favors with which messages they play and which ones they don't. After the engine failure in Austria, there was a message that didn't get played that basically said "I don't know how many people are listening here and in England, but I have complete confidence that we'll come back from this. This team/car has been the most reliable and best performing of any that I have driven in my career and I have 0 concern that this failure will cost us anything" or thereabouts.

NOW the manufacturers don't want to change the engine rules:

Remind me never to complain about having to trim the damn shrubs again....
I think I saw this car race in the old ALMS 25 or so years ago...JJ Lehto was driving it like a demon.
