Anybody BUT louis hamilton!......ANYBODY!
I am pulling for the kid, Kimi Antonelli for mercedes...
From wikipedia...
“He passed his driving test six weeks before his Formula One debut,[249][250] and continued studying online for his maturità through the first half of his rookie season.”
I know, its funny as all heck. When he won the Japan GP, he couldn’t have any champagne because he was underage! Love it. He’s too young to have any fear. What a blast he must be having...and the girls. Kinda like being in a boy band..
The teams have all agreed to the post-Bearman crash rules changes but the net effect is they’re going to be slower than the first three races. So car handling and aero becomes even less important, and the utilization of electric power more important. YIPPEE!
First free practice at Myjammy will be 90 minutes on account of everyone has so much adjusting to do.
Red Bull is bringing its own Macarena wing to Myjammy. Aston doesn’t have one yet, but you can bet Adrian Newey has done the math on it. Since A-M doesn’t have one, I figure that means either Newey doesn’t like the numbers or the Aston-Martin is so screwed up that the Macarena wing doesn’t solve anything for them.
And if anybody ever uses it in a race, expect it to be protested on account of it creates so much turbulence in deployent that it could be used offensively against a car in trail.
They will have to comply with Islamic rules in Miami if Mr. Antonelli is on the podium understanding US rules prohibit anyone under 21 from alcohol. In Islamic countries, they have cider. The Dolphins (which own the circuit) are aware of this situation and the FIA will have the Islamic countries’ cider to replace champagne if necessary to comply with United States laws. They will have cider available for both the F2 and F1 races if necessary since they will treat it the same way as it is in Sharia nations where alcohol is forbidden.
