Not sure if you guys caught this yet, but Max Mosley decided he's sticking around at the head of NASCAR. Thoughts?

(Just a heads up, my page is where you'll find the latest on NASCAR)

What is wrong with everyone lately?!😕 Look, Max Mosley actually made some great calls for Formula 1 that people seem to have completely forgotten about. Honestly, even if nobody can recall exactly what they were, that's not really the point.😁

That old amateur can't be shaken loose; he's too attached to his seat...
They're all a bunch of losers.👎

I'm with you. It’s not his fault Ferrari exploited the situation.

Thinking back to those girls holding umbrellas at the track, I probably wouldn't find it easy to walk away from the whole scene either.😁

PS Robin Fisher53, your thoughts?😁

Anyway, come on, Robin Fisher53, weigh in here.😁

I'm weighing in... 🙂
Yeah, I get what you mean....

But he doesn't exactly have the spare time to sit there watching them... he's too busy cooking up schemes to tear the whole formula apart...

I doubt that's his goal. If it were, he would've done it ages ago.

Honestly, what else has he done besides cause trouble?

I have to disagree there. If you look at how much safer Formula 1 has become, you'll see otherwise. One thing he did right was refusing to let the MP4-18 slide last season; it's a masterpiece of modern engineering, and his strictness actually gave Kimi a real shot at landing that first championship.👋

Hold on—wasn't that the car from this year that couldn't even finish races?div>

He’ll be left high and dry once things start falling apart.🙂
If we're talking about the guy who didn't even see the crash coming...🙂

If he’s the one who failed that collision test, then we're in trouble.🙂

Yeah, you're right.

Honestly, this whole situation just reminds me of how Markovica used to run things back in the day over in American soccer... 👎

Not last year's model that failed the crash test! This year they were running the McLaren MP4/4, which at least kept the naming simple.😁 While it shared some DNA, the aerodynamics were completely overhauled to meet the new regulations and accommodate the new engine cooling setup. Honestly, it was the engine itself that caused those retirements, not the chassis. If you look at the data, they were actually a full second faster than last year's car. If it wasn't for those Mosley safety rules, Kimi might have walked away with the championship.😁
