You would think the engine freeze might have coaxed Honda into staying. With no engine development they could have keep their name in F1 for very little money.
It's only down by a few million to $145M. It's not like they're all of a sudden completely skint, lolI would love to know the finer details of the budget cap. Does it include performance related employee bonuses because without it they will lose quite a few engineers I reckon. Also, how the likes of car schemes etc work. Long hours and what can only result teams not wanting to increase salaries and rather spend the money on R&D means engineers will go elsewhere.
Money talks so who knows.
Surely F1 will be cancelled in Saudi now. Apparently with Formula E on this weekend some drivers were caught up in it
What are people's views on the 2021 cars so far then?
I think the Aston looks pretty good (even if the snippets of their reveal I saw were cringeworthy), and the Alpha Tauri also looks good.
The Haas livery reveal has been the latest one, wonder where the backing for the team is coming from

With Rich Energy headline sponser I wonder?The alpine livery looks fantastic.
As odd as it seems, I'm looking forward to seeing what the Williams livery will be like.
