Despite all the F1 things I’ve done, I’m a fan first and foremost.
I’m absolutely gutted at the state of the sport I have always loved.
Horner can do what he likes in his private life (allegedly) but when it’s front page news, it IS bringing the sport into disrepute.
Denying Andretti because of the greed of 10 current teams is short sighted stupidity
This FIA present has run roughshod over rules and agreements time and time again because he’s desperate for fame. Now it looks like he is fiddling results such is his power .
Red Bull’s cost cap breach wasn’t properly punished despite them being able to lock in an advantage for years through overspending.
Abu Dhabi 21 still stands out as a time where despite mistakes being made, they COULD have apologised and fixed it.
I know I’ll be criticised, but these last 4 years have been such a poor reflection after what should have been the greatest sporting contest of all time.
F1 will lose fans who’ve been present for many many years. It breaks my heart.
🚨 | The President of the FIA, Mohammed Ben Sulayem is under investigation for alleged attempt to interfere over a race result.
A whistleblower has told the FIA that Ben Sulayem allegedly intervened to overturn a penalty given to Aston Martin's Fernando Alonso at the 2023 Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
The allegation made by the whistleblower is that Ben Sulayem called the FIA's vice-president for sport for the Middle East and North Africa region, who was in Saudi Arabia for the race in an official capacity - and made it clear he thought Alonso's penalty should be revoked.
Ben Sulayem has yet to comment on this.
