"Niels Wittich told me he didn't step down from his role as #F1 race director. He was just fired and was told so today. Very strange things happening 3 races before the end of the season..."

This is pretty huge, and completely unexpected. Seems there were issues between him and the big boss

Imagine Renault forgoing their own engines. So much for the Alpine brand and being the pinnacle of French racing engineering

If they still can’t win they can blame German engineering.

Or VSC, no VSC, Red Flag.
It’s been a mess.

The underpants thing or slowish red flags?

Second race director to depart since Massi and second to be fired… that we know of

Is Ford going to be exclusively RB? That would suck...

You just know Charles is happy about this.

You just know there’s a “Ferrari fan” somewhere who is highly upset by this.

 

[UrBaN963]

Can’t wait

 

[Dave]

Can’t wait

Maybe the British Mafia will get him before he can throw a tantrum
