Oh dear. #F1 told Mercedes where to stick the 2026 rules...but is it enough to make the sport less strange?
Or did Wolff allow the teams to gang up on him to fight the EVEN BIGGER fight ahead of #Formula1 teams.
This was a MAJOR blow for Toto's years-long plan.

Since #F1's CEO wouldn't own it, the #FIA president would.
HOURS before a crucial #Formula1 meeting, Ben Sulayem laid down his group's main focus: safety and the best interests of their SPORT.
What a clapback!

Oliver Bearman brought up his #JapaneseGP incident again...despite #F1 and the #FIA finding no wrongdoing on Franco Colapinto's part.
Why though? I'm beginning to see a pattern, folks.

The CEO of #F1 just went on camera and said the quiet part out loud...it wasn't our fault #Formula1 2026 has wound up the way it is...the automakers told us to!
This interview did not land as #FormulaOne hoped it world...let's discuss, folks. It's a wild one.

Even if Mercedes see loopholes being closed, it matters not to Kimi Antonelli.
Whilst Toto Wolff & George Russell lament how #F1 rivals are attacking them and the #FIA close off advantages, the Italian's already secured his place in #Formula1 history.
Curious.

The podcast intro? It's done by a proper band who gave me permission to use it. The background music for the videos is from YouTube Audio Library.
Mark Webber is absent from the #F1 paddock...why?
Could there be a case for Oscar Piastri to go to Red Bull in 2028 in the midst of the Max Verstappen-GP-McLaren saga?
To emulate a Schumacher-esque arrival when RBR could be ready to compete again? 1996.

Lance Stroll's weekend is another sign #F1 is in trouble.
There ARE fixes coming...but with Fred and Toto in the room...should we trust them to make proper changes for the good of #Formula1 as a whole?
Are the FIA REALLY capable of proper change these days?

Max Verstappen was totally all FOR his ally GP to go to McLaren...why?
A sign of how he's saying goodbye to Red Bull, a simple blessing...or is he acting as a future scout? Would McLaren be a future team, DENYING Toto Wolff?

Behold. Liam Lawson is still here.
And he's doing pretty well in #F1. Just two behind Max Verstappen! Here's why that makes him both worth YOUR attention and inconvenient for Red Bull.

So. The #F1 fraternity is mulling over V8 turbos for 2031. Will they do it?
It depends. Here's why.

The #F1 2026 regs are on trial. For real.
Has Toto Wolff's grand master plan for #Formula1 been rumbled? One that goes ALL THE WAY back to 2019 and Formula E?
And even then, Ferrari and McLaren got hands. The #MiamiGP could be fun!

George Russell isn’t suddenly slower nor is Kimi Antonelli simply hype.
George is right to point to historic Mercedes one-sidedness and misfortune...but tread carefully...or else risk Toto Wolff's wrath.

Aston Martin finished an #F1 race! Good.
Now the #Formula1 works project's gone from terrifying...to only embarrassing. Alonso and Stroll can work with that. But with Honda finding fixes fast, how long will it be until Aston have to own their side of the problem?
#FormulaOne
youtu.be/xg0DTCkGtYM
That's valid. F1 will be praying for Kimi to win the title so they can soften the blow of Max potentially quitting.
It's not about the car. Or the #F1 regulations per se.
Instead, Max Verstappen's motivation to MAYBE retire from #Formula1 could be simply down to his lack of desire to use his name to hype a sport he's lost faith in.
That might be harder to resolve for #FormulaOne.

After the #JapaneseGP, it feels like the #F1 regulations' motives weren't all that we thought they were. The drivers? Listened to, kinda...but no seat at the table.
What's going on here that's resulted in #Formula1 fans having little trust in the 'product'?
#FormulaOne

Yeah, tweaking megajoules is a start...but #FIA? We need some BETTER responses to the #JapaneseGP. Good thing Oliver will be back for Miami.
That being said, did Kimi's taking the lead of the championship leave George...ruffled?

After Max Verstappen's stand against reductive questions before the #JapaneseGP, it might have partly vindicated George Russell's infamous quip.
Let's talk about what happened between Max and the journalist.

The FIA just dropped a major change to #F1 qualifying for the #JapaneseGP.
Might this partially answer major concerns regarding the session...or inspire future changes to #Formula1 cars? Either way, it may proves Max Verstappen had a point.

Both Aston Martin and Audi are in the midst of a love triangle...both #f1 teams seeking a cure to their identity crises.
Papa Stroll's #formula1 team needs a new leader who can calm their failure to be a works team. As for Audi? Can we trust their commitment?

Mercedes might have found a way to have the edge in #F1...even with their own customers.
This could be a case of a software power play in which McLaren, Alpine and Williams need to get to the bottom of...whilst their suppliers? They're sitting pretty!

China is honing in on #F1. But it won't happen the way you think it will.
How? A BYD tie-in? The return of a stronger Lotus organisation than in the 2010s?
Whatever happens, #Formula1 will welcome it.

Aston Martin failed its first test as an #F1 works team.
Honda demands things can't stay the same or else nothing will change.
But the team struggles to do so. Overly honest to delusional defensiveness. Who would want to pair up with this #Formula1 team now?

Which is encouraging, yes. However, the car proved to be fussy when it came to the act of even starting itself. Not ideal from an electrical point of view. They will get on top of it but this lose of momentum and valuable race-time data is going to impact development of their first upgrade packs.
