Why doesn't it belong in F1? A standardised hole for the starter motor hardly makes them spec cars. Give designers a box and they'll tell you it's something else.......

It's a hole. Given a maximum surface area they could at least try to use it for downforce as well. Give them a "spec" part and someone will cry that "Team X has the FIA under their thumb".Quote:

Favouritsm perhaps? Or perhaps this is like Fox News version of "Fair and Balanced"
Its as if Mosely never left! Only Todt is worse because he doesn't have the fortitude and determination of Max. He loves committees and consensus.
I am sure the team from Woking will take this in their stride - imagine if it makes the car quicker! Ferrari - will really be hopping mad!
I am sure Mclaren wish THEY could have been nominated legal cheats like Ferrari were with their secret technical veto arrangement.
I am sure Mclaren will have the measure of the prancing donkey and the Red bs cars - and it will be sweet whether it is Jenson or Lewis that wins.
Clearly Fox does not adhere to your views!Quote:

Rubbish, if another design would have been better they wouldn't have used the present one.Quote:

Good point BUT you know what he means. The design they had at Bahrain was the best one up to that point for their car as it is.Quote:
