Um, Luka's got a point...
I'm not a fan of the Gent, however I feel he may have a big point in this.

The simulators will not go away even with limited testing. After all, the drivers will never be allowed to test their cars on the actual GP circuits. The simulators are not test the cars. They're meant to gain familiarity with the race track.

What I want to know is; why did he use the term "soccer"? Dude must be transfixed on the U.S. market

So Luca thinks Red Bull have a better simulator than him
I guess it would be fair to swap simulators for testing if the teams that don't have their own test track get a $5m higher budget cap to compensate; I wonder what Luca would think of that idea.
I think the development of simulator technology has a lot more potential application to road car production than doing a million laps of Fiorano in an F1 car.

None of this doesn't mean I wouldn't take the Ferrari simulator and put it in my garage if given the chance.

Maybe the official coverage didnt make the most of the island and the rally and once again it was other creators who came up with some great footage. Tarmac is a contentious surface for some...
