Going to sign the contract I see
That deal is as done as it can be. I'm happy with Vettel staying in F1 but Perez being pushed out certainly leaves a bitter taste.

https://the-race.com/formula-1/ferrari- ... -from-fia/Ferrari requests Racing Point design clarification from FIA
Ahead of Wednesday’s hearing of the Renault protest of the Racing Point brake ducts, Ferrari has written to the FIA and Formula 1 chiefs requesting clarification on how the Racing Point methodology of ‘reverse-engineering’ its RP20 from last year’s Mercedes W10 can be considered as ‘design’.
Ferrari points to Appendix 6 of the F1 Sporting Regulations which state that a team can only use listed parts it has designed itself.
McLaren CEO Zak Brown said during the British Grand Prix weekend: “The majority of teams don’t like what Racing Point is doing.
“Whether it’s legal or not is up to the FIA to decide, but it’s outside the spirit of what F1 is.
This is a real grey area isn't it. How many other teams have seen things on other cars and worked backwards? Also, are Racing Point expected to completely unlearn what they've learned from using last years brake ducts? I don't quite understand how this can be enforced. Surely, every team has something on their car that has evolved from a design that isn't their own. Nothing in this world is original.Wouter wrote: ↑04 Aug 2020, 08:43https://the-race.com/formula-1/ferrari- ... -from-fia/Ferrari requests Racing Point design clarification from FIA

I know it is the done thing from some to knock Stroll, I usually do not, but did wonder if he depends on 'help' to set the car up?
Exactly, called this within the first day of the protest being announced. The real fight here is what exactly does "design" mean.bonjon1979 wrote: ↑04 Aug 2020, 12:29This is a real grey area isn't it.

Doesnt make any sense what you are saying? Ferrari is worse then RP at the moment. Some extremely lucky podiums will not change that. Vettel would be N1 at RP, back to a UK based team. No more Ferrari politics and mess.PlatinumZealot wrote: ↑03 Aug 2020, 23:50By the looks of it Vettel would get only more frustrated fighting in a midfield team. Best to leave Perez there.
