everyone: the sport would be better if more teams were able to regularly compete for podiums/wins

them: but not AT/VCARB tho

Oh they didn’t have any problem with it when it was the toro rosso or the alpha tauri winning, but somehow it’s an issue if vcarb does.

It’s very galling of them to call any potential future podiums illegitimate when they proceed, in the same article, to admit that any collaboration between the two teams is legal.

This article has no other purpose but to set the tone for a very particular agenda

#the same three or four teams have been on the podium for the last two years #but somehow this team’s achievements will be illegitimate because they buy parts from some other team #where were all these think pieces when Aston Martin made the massive jump in performance last year??#no one called Fernando alonso’s podium illegitimate even when AM buys suspension parts from merc #no one calls out Haas for literally buying every single part allowed under the regs from Ferrari #or that they have their bloody aerodynamic design dept right INSIDE maranello???#make it make sense
