[Official] Azerbaijan Grand Prix 2024

totally and to riff on that point...

episodes like the Reb Bull flex wings from years back or even Ferrari burring oil debates used to generate a lot more partisanism here and across the fan base with more heated discussions often with one side accusing the other side of 'cheating'.

perhaps the FIA dealing with these sorts of episodes in an more subtle private manner has also lead to a decrease in in fan outrage?

makes sense really as its in all of our interests to see less acrimony between the teams which then hopefully translates into less acrimony across fandom. also there is a difference between being 'clever' and 'cheating' so it serves no one (including brands and sponsors) when the former is being confused for the latter.

if that makes sense.
