Mohammed Ben Sulayem also said before the Miami Grand Prix on Sunday that he supports a proposal floated by McLaren Racing boss Zak Brown that would require teams making any allegations against another to lodge a formal complaint with a monetary deposit. Brown suggested the money would be returned if the allegations proved true, but it should count against the cost cap if unproven as a deterrent to baseless and damaging claims.
MBS is a stain on humanity. Not because of this, but this is profoundly stupid. If he’s considering abolishing the cost cap because the bureaucracy is hard, he might as well do away with weight limits, fuel regulations, and track limits. All of those things are hard to keep track of. They require cameras and scales and accountants and all of that costs money and effort, so he figures, ‘let’s do away with it’, not realizing that without all of that shit, the FIA is just a logo and a wikipedia entry.
F1B when?
Did somebody get upset at Williams performance over the weekend? Honestly, some of the closest racing we’ve had in years (just don’t look at McLaren this year) is because of the cost cap.
What a prick.
Just call it the Christian Horner rule
