Wheel covers :whistling: Marmite I know :rolleyes:

Red Bull’s famed team engineer and race car designer Adrian Newey said that 2022 will bring the biggest changes in Formula1 in the last 4 decades :eek:

Since aerodynamics is the KEY element change, will Red Bull have a bigger advantage over Mercedes, given they will all have the same power unit from before? :thumbsup:

My guess is no.

Based on the last 4 races, I'd say Mercedes definitely had the advantage over Red Bull, not the other way around. Furthermore, I'm convinced Mercedes sprinkled some magic pixie dust over Lewis's new engine in Brazil. Whatever they did, I felt the Mercedes engine was superior to Honda's at the end of the season. So I'll be quite surprised if Mercedes still isn't the team to beat at the start of 2022.

23 Race Schedule :eek:
I hope I'm wrong, but I have a feeling due to Omicron and the on-going pandemic, this schedule will have changes and the number of races will be less than 23. :(

Yeah, we were all hoping 2021 would be a return to normality and we all know that went out the window!

I was Wanting to go back to Singapore for 2022 but looks like it's too risky to even think about.
Will have to settle for Melbourne as my one and only for 2022.

This is why they engaged the aviation engineer.

Just want to know why is there some “uncertainty” whether Hamilton will continue in 2022 or not? Remember he immediately renewed to a 2-year contract at the middle of 2021 when seeing intense battles with Red Bull & Max, in contrast to a late contract renegotiation prior to 2021 ::confused2::

Why is there always drama with LH? He hasn’t moved on? He is 7-time world champion and gets upset with a new one? :eek: Just like when Nico defeated him in 2016 I guess.

I guess he feels like 'what's the point' of doing it again... or maybe he just thinks the best way to get his own back on F1 is to remove their star driver?

Well, he is a seven time champion after all. But it's funny how quickly you're not missed once you leave...

DId anybody miss Nico Rosberg in 2017?
Yes, I did. Without Nico to challenge Lewis, the seasons have been so boring until this last season.

The 2021 season without Max or without Lewis would have been very boring.

Both have been at a level well above the rest, and one without the other, would have won the championship without any opposition… Seeing the difference in points, both have more than 6 Grand Prix advantage over the third classified.

Both have made this season so competitive. Not only their own fans would miss one of them, all F1 fans would miss that fight.
