    Sounds like you're a supporter of FIA protected 7 year dominance.
    Providing it's only for Mercedes

    :D

    That would do nice...perfect car for Monaco as well.

    He's also got a Pista and rumoured to have a black Monza SP2.

    Here he is driving with Kelly.

    This man needs a Ferrari contract at some point...

    It looks like you are over-simpifying the facts to suit your agenda, but I am used to that bias rethoric.
    I really don't care who wins, but I am for respecting the results, and the winners.
    If a team or a driver wins for a long period of time, it means superiority.
    They must do a better job, and I accept that, and dont contest it.
    F1 must be one of the few sports where the public constantly questions the results.
    If Max/RBR win 9 WDC/WCCs, I will be fine with that. The same if it happens to Ferrari and Leclerc, or Haas and Magnussen, etc ...
    But I don't think that you are open minded enough to understand that.
    Some only follow F1 to see their pet team winning, and then get the arse when it doesn't. Are you one of them ? ;)

    Take your issue with race results to the FIA. Their officials decided the outcome at Montreal.

    The winner didn't "cheat" in any way.

    7 years of domination is not good for any sport.

    Todt assisted an unprecedented period for Mercedes. That will be his legacy.

    Only someone who considers sport being just an entertainment would have such view.

    F1 isn't another Hollywood production, get over it ! :D

    World Rallye Championship:

    Sebastien Loeb (Fr), World champion 9 consecutive years with Citroen.
    Sebastien Ogier (Fr), World champion 8 consecutive years.

    Do you think rallying suffered from this ?

    Rallye is a motor sport where each car is driving alone on track instead of all cars starting at the same time.

    Huge difference.

    Ogier didn't win eight years in a row.
    But rallying is a complete different motorsport.
