Sorry but after reading this article about the FIAs pathetic punishment to Red Bull, Micks blood is up again. I'm not only a motor race fan but a bike road racing (cycling) follower too and they have similar problems with their governing body. I honestly don't understand how our sports can evolve when the executive decisions are made by toothless old farts that are completely out of touch with the real world. On second thoughts though our whole country is run by people who don't know how to run things. Personal agenda and short term glory is the watchword nowadays. Liz Truss and the energy companies are metaphors for a modern success story and are laughing all the way to the bank. A new catch word to describe us ordinary people should be Wake not Woke....as in... we're left in their wake. Or..it could be used in a motto to describe the ruthless Trump/Ecclestone way things are being run like an Alan Sugar TV game. Wake Up and Predate. :mad:

The punishment is not a deterrent. Horner admitted that RedBull hadn’t done the test submissions in 2020 - so absolutely no sympathy for them.

the punishment should be for 5 years

Red Bull have history of bending the rules until they are caught.
 
This opens the door for every team to do whatever they want !!!!!
Money is no object to these teams and £6M is not going to cripple them
Exactly. Toto Wolf has already hinted he might be flexible with their budget. Implying the system is weak and not trusted. However if this happened it could all degenerate into the chaos of cycling in the Lance Armstrong days when he ran a drug taking industry.
