This is Getting Ridiculous...

I want to voice my disgust abut the state of MRC Formula 1. For me using old chassis is inexcusable and it shouldn’t be allowed at all. In my opinion, failing to make new chassis should be punished in the same way as is failure to sign drivers for next season.

In last 6 season teams have requested to use old chassis 11 times. Ferrari and LKR have requested that twice and Audi, BMW, Jordan, Lamborghini, Mercedes, Senna and Trabant have used it once. I have noting against teams that chose to take this root, because I know they feel this is their best chance to progress in the future. However, I do think that people in charge of this game should remove this option or increase the penalty on old chassis. This way teams would struggle to meet 107% in qualifications and would use it only as their last resort.

I also think that team disqualification in Formula 1 should be changed too. Instead I propose that in those cases team manager and his assistant lose all their shares, which are then put on transfer market. They should also be banned from buying Formula 1 shares for one season. This way all the other shareholders are not punished for incompetence of their management. Some of my co-owners at Porsche Racing know only too well how it’s when you are the prisoner of one man’s will.

Please like this press release if you share my view. If we are loud enough, maybe our voice will be heard then…
