    Exactly, team orders didn't exist before team radios right?

    I mean in Fangio's day drivers were never told to let their teammates past right? Nor were they told to pit and hand their car over to their teammate. Back in the old days drivers were never told to let their teammate past because it might increase sales in a particular country right (Like Fangio being told at Aintree 1955 to let Moss through because Mercedes needed a publicity boost in the UK)? And Mercedes never told its non-German drivers to let its German drivers past to win for Nazi propaganda purposes before WW2 of course....

    We'd certainly never get the Paris-Dakar rally results decided by a coin-toss before the event. Absolutely not....

    Team orders only began with team radios so banning them will get rid of team orders, yes I can see the logic there....

    I wouldn't mind seeing radios lost in F1, but as stated above, I dont see it changing the state of teamorders in the sport. As long as the teams have more than one car, they will use some sort of orders.

    One Car teams or team orders.
    I still exist and still find the forum occasionally. Busy busy

    funny little man. I actually make a valid point and looks like some are on board with some changes. You seem to be a bit of old fashioned.

    And why "people"? I am a person. funny little man

    nothing in my posts were offensive and there was no name calling
    but "people" like you love to pick a fight for no reason
    especially, when their arguments fall flat on their face

    that's the last on this matter for me,
    feel free to continue if you wish but its really not worth my time trying to respond anymore

    cheers
