F1 got the Monaco penalties wrong...and it's HUGE consequences.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsThe FIA checked its own equipment after Monaco and found no abnormalities. Then three days later FOM's evidence broke that audit and by Friday morning the stewards had rescinded Gasly's penalties. That still leaves George Russell with a five-second penalty that became a drive-through. Where did it all go wrong?? It reminding me of a Qatar 2024 echo George won't enjoy.

The FIA says its 2027 engine fix won't touch the racing... so why are some Grands Prix about to get shorter?Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsYesterday the FIA announced agreement on the 2027 engine rules. There would be more combustion power and less battery. Lovely! But there's more that wasn't spoken about as much.For starters, Overtake Mode is unchanged and the package is understood to trim laps off the thirstiest races, just so some cars can reach the end. Sure, Max Verstappen got the direction he begged for but at what cost? And oh yes, there was still no unanimous agreement on this.#f1 #formula1 #formulaone #maxverstappen #fia #fiaf1 #f1news #f1updates #aduo #f1gossip #f1drama #f1cars #f1car #f1teams #f1team Get 15% off at the Castore Official website with my special link: https://glnk.io/ryj2p/lawrence #AdCastoreAffF1 Fixed Its Engines By Making Races Shorterhttps://youtu.be/ZQ1o-E316A8 Hosted on Acast.

Mercedes got help from F1 while Red Bull's engine is frozen.Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsF1's new ADUO engine rule was meant to stop one manufacturer running away with the 2026 season. Instead, the first ruling has handed Mercedes an upgrade after all! Meanwhile, Red Bull-Ford, judged the benchmark on the combustion side...gets nothing...and they're winning nothing also!

McLaren backed Lando Norris and got the trophy. Then Oscar Piastri said Red Bull interest is 'flattering.'Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsMcLaren's 2025 settlement is now costing them as the team is not winning...at all. Norris said in Melbourne he'd retire from Formula 1 rather than leave McLaren. Then Piastri called Red Bull interest 'flattering' before Canada. And Zak Brown's 'contracts aside' answer to The Athletic does more work than anyone noticed...that perhaps the bill from last year isn't fulfilling the deal made with number 81.

Max Verstappen No Longer Needs F1 The Way He Used ToClimb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsWith the Nurburgring announcing its 24 hours event this weekend is sold out for the first time in its history, this is the clearest sign yet that Formula 1 needs Max Verstappen more than he needs IT.

The 2026 Miami GP felt like a normal weekend. Why are we celebrating that?Climb the ladder with me on Patreon: https://patreon.com/lawvsCuriously enough, this year's Formula One Grand Prix was quite a good one at the Miami Autodrome. There were overtakes, action and the rain never came. We had several drivers up for pole and the win and the best thing? Very little talk about the terms that had been annoying many Formula 1 fans over 2026. Things like deployment, harvesting, superclipping. No major dramas regarding the restriction of information from FOM.It felt...normal. Kinda. If we could get more races like this, might 2026 prove to be tolerable enough for most fans?

Kimi broke records, Hadjar had a horror and Max was back...albeit dramatically!Join the VS Posse today!https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKXm93J-6YEUEBs8WlLagrA/joinThe 2026 Formula 1 Miami GP was a race to remember...in that it was worth remembering. For a track not held in high regard, this was the place where Formula One test its new patches to the regulations...and they produced a good race. Four teams were in contention for pole and there was a lot of chatter about the racing rather than the artifical nature of them, which can only be good. Not to mention that Williams secured vital points and Franco Colapinto gave his team Alpine his best ever race result after Charles Leclerc had one of the worst laps of his F1 career.Who else won, lost or was just plain meh?
