Poor Alonso, guy can't catch a break...

Alonso needs a new engine for the Australian GP: https://www.planetf1.com/news/fernando-alonso-new-engine-melbourne/

"... However, on a weekend when he had taken a new Internal Combustion Engine as a precaution, Alonso was forced to retire, marking a disappointing end to what had been a very promising race weekend.


Now, after some detailed examinations, it has been found a water pump failure was behind Alonso’s woes.

And due to the water pump “disintegrating and falling into the engine”, it has meant this unit can no longer be used.

So a third engine will now need to be added to the pool, with each driver allowed only three ICEs for the season before grid penalties start being handed out.... "

Saw that...not good for Alpine really! He's going to get a penalty every single time he changes his engine now.
Would be interesting to see if he was penalised like this for changing his engine again if taken out in the race!

I've always loved Audi, the brand. If they were to enter F1 I would be inclined to support them....
 
I would prefer if they give each driver 3 (or whatever fair number) DRS uses per race, to use whenever they feel like.

Would force the drivers to implement their own in-race strategies, rather than just being loud mouth mavericks on the radio...

DRS needs to be reviewed - maybe a system like they have in Formula-E with limited use across the race? I dunno

Or just get rid of it.
Didn't Formula-E have a Fan boost and it was decided by social Media who got it? that may have been A1, but the point is don't encourage Liberty to introduce more gimmicks, they already think that Las Vegas is more 'Glamorous' than Monaco.

Nothing, a two-horse race is entertaining enough, but a third horse in the mix would be even more so.

Personally, I'm rooting for Charles to win it, but let's see how it pans out.

Yeah but it would be awesome if he beat the GOAT in a worthy car unlike Max
