    I would have paid you to tell him his banishment was for being a hamilton fan. [emoji16]

    Welcome back william. Now if only we could get Sid back.

    While some of his posts went too far or got too personal, I got to like Sid.
    A Tifosi Ultra.
    I do remember he was in pretty bad health.
    Does anybody know if he got a life ban or some such?
    I’m hoping it was that, rather than worsening health, that explains his absence.

    Sid did have his nuclear moments but actually a terrific guy. Banned for Life he is. A few folks on the forum keep in touch with him.

    jgonzalesm6, how do you get these excellent pics. Are you part of one of the teams or the FIA?

    Thank you.

    Hi William, I reviewed the logs, and the infraction was due to non-compliance in not discussing in Politics. While I understand you disagree with this long-standing policy (20 years) - it is not the Moderators call in questioning the procedure. It would be the owner of the site, Rob. You are all always welcome to petition to him.

    I get some folks to disagree that the speed limit on certain roads should be higher. Do not be angered at the officer issuing a ticket to you over for exceeding the said limit (especially after a warning first.)

    It would be logical to express displeasure at your local legislature.

    I hope this provides context and clarity to the ban.
    Best to you.

    I wish. You Welcome.

    I have several windows(about 6 right now) open on my computer which are F1 related and half of those windows get constant updates of F1.....some of the updates are photo journalists....while other updates are articles of F1 in general.

    Due to COVID-19 protocols, 2020 is limited on photo's from the paddock and pitlane.

    Prior to 2020, I would constantly post pics of the paddock and pitlane, especially the cars with emphasis of the aero on each car from front to back of said car. The car changes from track to track.

    Netflix filming Mercedes this weekend. Let’s see what script Elton has been thinking of acting up for us this time in the spotlight.
    Last year was a leaf right out of one of Michael Jordan’s most famous games. The wounded hero, (a little fever) who didn’t know if he was gonna make it, showing up at the last second to take another win against the odds... That ended up in the wall.

    Thanks for that.
    I perfectly understand the rule, but in that case I didn't realise my post was beyond the limits.
    As I said, it's not a major issue for me, and I will be more careful in future.
    Cheers

    RACING POINT


    Lance Stroll - being the better placed driver in the WDC - will run the new Racing Point upgrade package at Sochi as there was not enough time to produce parts and spares for both cars.

    HAAS


    According to information gathered by Motorsport Italy, the negotiations between Perez and Haas would be at a good point. Latest rumors suggest that Haas wants to replace both drivers.

    If Haas replaces both drivers does that mean one seat goes to a Ferrari Academy person?

    Thanks, William, and I can see how your post can be interpreted as not crossing the line by some. Unfortunately, we've had to be more strict.

    You are appreciated and well respected here. Your absence made even long-standing members who disagreed with you on some points miss you!

    Be well.

    With all the pictures posted, I thought you were traveling with the teams or a part of FOM. Thank you for your dedication!
