F1 2023 - The Rise of Oscar

[Barrybran]

The driver pairings have changed (slightly) since the start of this year, though.

Isn't China back on the calendar for 2024?

Yep. Hopefully Alfa Romeo have a half-decent car at the start of next season.

The current game includes China (as it was originally on the calendar) and has the updated driver pairings as of Abu Dhabi

Wonder what EA/Codemasters are going to do to make next years game appealing.

No change in driver pairings and tracks from the current title to the next.

Next years game is a change in engine if I recall correctly so the graphics should get a nice bump and the glitches will be 10x again

Losing a racetrack for another street circuit

Just change the name to Formula Street Circuit 1.

It would be interesting to see what the world standings would look like on Street circuits vs racetracks this year.

Most of Oscar's strong performances (Silverstone, Qatar, Japan) came on racetracks. It was the opposite for Sergio.

I'm fine with it, Barcelona is good for MotoGP but an awful F1 track.

Sauber saying going to have a surprising name next year. Also launching in England for the first time.

Can only be one sponsor right?

Love the Barcelona track.

Also agree, less street circuits, not more.

So, seems Toto said something in a recent meeting that shouldnt have been public knowledge so now the FIA are looking into the conflict of interest with the fact that his wife works for FOM (To be fair, was only a matter of time until something like this happened given the nature of their relationship both personally and professionally)

FIA investigates Wolffs over conflict of interest claim

Mercedes boss Toto Wolff and wife Susie, head of the F1 Academy, are the subjects of an FIA investigation over a potential conflict of interest.

A source has said that multiple team principals complained to the FIA regarding similar allegations made in the media about Toto Wolff.

All team principals putting tweets out it wasn't is worded the same. Not suspicious in any way.

Yeah looks like all the teams have put out a joint statement, which is why they are all worded exactly the same (found that weird to be honest).

Wonder if this is FOM forcing the FIA to now come out to see if the rumours about a TP complaining are true or if the FIA have just based it off that one article from BusinessF1.

FOM vs FIA....its going to be a spicy offseason!

Also as most expected, Ricciardo on RBR standby early on if Perez fails

Personally i'd love to see Alonso in the RBR next to Max.
Fireworks in and out of the garage.lol

if you have access to "Disney" watch the 4 episodes of "Brawn". it's riveting.

Probably the best F1 doco I've ever watched.

Lucky - the Bernie one on Stan also very good.

Can you tell Aysedasi to go * himself?

I didn't realise that so many teams actually had "F1 Team" or "Formula One Team" in their name...

I thought AlphaTauri were changing their name.
