Wow! A lot of the cars were racing full speed with a yellow flag out.

350 kph is awfully piddling for a car with 1200 (or 1000) bhp. Unless it’s also making 3000 kg of downforce.

I could never quite buy the story that Newey left Red Bull because of the fracas between Horner and his PA. Now formu1a.uno is writing that it was over the added air intakes (on halo & shark fin) that showed up at Japan. They claim they were done by Enrico Balbo (aerodynamics) and Pierre Wache (tech dir) without asking for Newey’s blessing. They thought the added cooling was necessary and Newey thinks they should train the engine to hold it’s breath until the race is over.

And Newey considered this a snub worthy of resigning over.

Hambone does this nonsense reflexively but I can’t for the life of me imagine what Notverstoppen hoped to accomplish by having a child-like temper tantrum on race radio. Who is it he thinks he is impressing, and in what bizarro universe does he believe his future results will improve because he’s done it?
