Official Formula One and General Motorsport Thread for 2024!

[Roonmastor]

Yeah, that I agree with.

[Robbo-92]

I can kind of see the logic in extending it to 11th/12th, the cars are so reliable these days that even a team in the cusp of being the 6th fastest, isn’t going to sneak into the points that often, so this would help it even out over the season. Hope they don’t put points all the way down to 20th though, there has to be some effort out in to get a point.

[Cheeky Devlin]

It also helps to really cement the order of the lower half drivers which is a point I think is more important. It's less about the teams for me.

Rumours Newey is leaving red bull

[Drumstick]

Wonder if he's going to join Lewis at Ferrari?

[Victor Mildew]

Red Bull dominating

Ferrari dominating

[Robbo-92]

Ferrari putting that HP money to good use already if that’s their target

[Victor Mildew]

Imagine a newey ferrari

Now watch him go to audi and we get strawberry floating Hulkenberg as a 4 times wdc

[Cuttooth]

Wonder if he's going to join Lewis at Ferrari?

Hamilton somehow always choosing the best career moves possible.

[Robbo-92]

I’d be delighted if Hülkenberg just got a win or podium at this stage

Probably isn’t the case, but could Newey just be retiring? No idea when his current contract is up at Red Bull though.

[Victor Mildew]

I hope he is leaving, just to see how crushed Horner will be.

[Robbo-92]

That would be fully worth it to be honest

[Victor Mildew]

Urge to book tickets for the 2026 Monza race rising.

[Jam-Master Jay]

I could probably stomach one more championship for Hamilton if it's at the expense of Red Bull losing Newey. The scenes at Red Bull with Horner sulking would be worth it all.

And if it happens at Abu Dhabi

Red Bull design chief Adrian Newey is to leave the team in the wake of the controversy involving allegations about team principal Christian Horner.

Newey, regarded as the greatest Formula 1 designer in history, has told Red Bull he wants to move on, BBC Sport has learned.

The 65-year-old has been unsettled by the situation at Red Bull since Horner was accused of sexual harassment and coercive, abusive behaviour by a female employee, which Horner denies.

Red Bull and Newey did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

[Robbo-92]

Going back to Williams makes the most sense, make Sargent great again

Newey to Aston Martin to over see their Valkyrie hypercar programme and crush Le mans in 2025
