[Other Sport] Australian GP

Anyone else find it a bit suspicious that Haas, who are essentially a Ferrari junior team sent out two drivers with loose wheels a couple of laps apart exactly at the moment that the Ferrari strategy needed a safety car/virtual safety car? Also seems strange that the Haas had been left in gear making it harder than normal to move out the way.

Well,at least Piquet Jr had the common decency to put it in the wall

Pity they don’t insist that all tracks are designed/adjusted to allow more overtaking. There were just two overtakes in Australia last year and it wasn’t much better this year.

I think people get a little to caught up with the number of overtakes. Having loads of overtakes doesn't necessarily make for good racing. A bit like we can enjoy a 1-0 in football but americans are used to a high scoring basket ball game. What we really want is close racing and battles, and for overtakes to be an achievement, not something that's purely a result of DRS. Australia wasn't great for sure but Ross Brawn is working on the next big technical regulations change that'll come into play in 2021 and he's looking at changing the regs to allow the cars to get closer to each other which will hopefully improve the show. The last big changes were to make the cars faster, which certainly worked but arguably hasn't improved the show.
