How much cope and seethe do we think will be going on in the MBS household currently as his precious, prized Middle East GPs all looks like they're going to be cancelled?
That's nothing but low-end racism dressed up as based political analysis.

He hasn't posted since that comment so guessing he is taking a holiday or banned. CC is/was a resilient character who could have just closed his account after the whole "one eye open" thing, but instead he kept to his login...

But I had noticed that some of his more recent comments were towards the more right of NP&E.

I see Formula E drivers are now pissed off with MBS too. All twenty drivers went behind their teams backs and wrote to him to complain about BS penalties 'for the show', amongst other fking around with the series.


The controversy could possibly remind people that Formula E is still running too.

No, it's where baby formula 1 failed hopefuls are sidelined for a few years until they get a proper job.

I thought it's where Red Bull drivers go to recouperate before being returned to the wild.

You could say the same with Indycars...

It's not like driving for a factory team in LM24 is a proper job, is it?

It lasts the whole race, almost, they stop for a 30 second supercharge pitstop half way through.
I watched the last race, first time in years, talk about mickey mouse with lots of overtaking based on energy use.
The pre start was utterly bizarre, with them doing a burnout to roll into the box a few feet, leaving the grid covered in smoke so they had to wait ages for that to clear before they could start the race.

The only thing in FE’s favour today, is that it’s better than their first couple of seasons when they had to change cars halfway through the race.

Still a Mickey Mouse ‘championship’, but with a great driver lineup as they have works teams who can write six-figure cheques. WEC and Indycar would benefit from FE being dropped.

Pretty sure this was anticipated and discussed many pages ago!

Anyway, unless there is any successful legal action, he'll have no problem getting the proposal through the vote. Hell get what he wants as there is no effective mechanism in place to prevent it.

yep, was reading that. how can there be one of highest positions in the sport that cant effectively be voted on. and WTF does this mean? a quirk in the rules?

"The move would enable the 64-year-old Emirati - who was re-elected unopposed in December as a result of a quirk in election rules that prevented anyone else from standing - to continue as president beyond the current 12-year limit."

fk me these dictators are everywhere
