Mercedes may not be able to make any developments due to Bottas' crash
Big consequences for Mercedes
How abt a kart for one n just fix one car n that will do all the hard work of collecting wins... Bottas' mind is not in the race... he usually falls into a long slump after a disappointing race... this is worse..hahaha! Poor soul!
Yes!! Just use one car! Give Bottas time to recover and he can watch on TV............Poor up to no good driver.....giving Merc so much work to do............
Ahhh.. so thoughtful of you, you see the light... haha, told you to come over... But your motive is not so good....it benefits Max... haha
You guys are very creative.. that was a bad accident with consequences.... but you always find a way to do things smart.... poor Bottas needs some love after those insults.... not deserving such..but he''ll live....
Well, that is precisely why the budget cap was put in place so that rich teams with very deep pockets do not have the advantage of merely spending endless sums of money to keep on improving their cars, compared to smaller teams which have limited budgets and have been disadvantaged all this while.
As the saying goes, the rich gets richer while the poor gets poorer, so this budget cap is to make it a more level playing field for all teams, which obviously the larger teams would not like as their previously 'unfair advantage' has now been curbed.
Are you advocating bringing Socialism to Formula 1. In other words we are going for Mediocre. We want all the drivers to be the same too? The teams get rich for winning. Money is always a motivator. Once we go down this road and we pay Latifi and Hamilton the same money is that fair. Welcome to life, the better your talent the more you are paid.
Do we want all workers to be paid the same no matter how good they are? Should we all have limits on how much we can pay for our houses, cars, education for our kids? Where does the even playing field end?
I think your example is contradictory to Mech's example. He is talking about spendings and not driver salaries .Budget caps wrt spending on machinery and driver budget caps or so called salary caps are different issue. Driver Salary caps are debatable. Budget cap for spendings on machine is required so that other teams too can get an opportunity to compete. Moreover policing of those budget caps are even more important bec Top teams are still intelligent enough to find ways to circumvent budget cap.
This is crazy... after slowing down the drivers in order not to run out of fuel and preserve the tires, in future they have to be careful not to damage the cars? The problem of the budget cap is ONLY consequent to the choice of an insanely expensive power unit, which has drained all the financial resources of the teams. Until the hybrid engine, there has never been a problem of this kind, so it is clear what is the cause. Not to introduce the budget cap, but to provide a reasonable cost engine, this was (and remains) the real solution.
