With Hybrid, cannot bring refueling...
RaceFans has learned further details of the proposal for F1’s 2021 engine regulations. These include an increased rev limit, which will rise from 15,000rpm to 18,000rpm. The fuel flow rate, currently limited to 100kg per hour, will also be removed in 2021.
These two changes are likely to lead to a significant increase in the race start weight of F1 cars. They could have to carry as much as 50kg more fuel meaning they will start races weighing over 960kg unless in-race refuelling, which has been banned since 2010, is permitted again.
New rules. Higher fuel flow in 2019

also if this is semi true they will need to bring back refueling or the cars will be touching 1000kg. It will be a fuel cell. otherwise the racing becomes a fuel mileage game
IMO the biggest issue is the stupid limit on power units and power unit elements. You want higher revs and power but limit the parts needed. There should be a development freeze for 19 and 20
Rumor from Auto Motor und Sport is that Ferrari and Mercedes have caved and agreed to the 2021 plans which include ditching on the MGU-H
Any clues why? not enough power/weight ratio from the heat recovery unit? realibility ?
Master Vettel and Ferrari on Pole for a 3rd in a row. Would have been a Red front row lock out if RAI didnt lose it in the last corner. Mercedes and Hamilton yet to start from 1st in 2018....

Ham started 1st on the 1st race.
Hahahaha u called it lol
I think he feels his career is coming to an end in F1. On another the race should have been red flagged.I'm not Nostradamus... it was easy. Grosjean's crash be behind safety car... that's a FAIL. He was in good position, he must be ashamed and pissed off at himself.
Vettel had a podium in hand. Win was questionable at that point.Vettel had the win in hand, everything played the opposite for him. And to make it worst, go for it overshoot the turn , flat spot and next thing you know bottas gets a puncture......im sure he was mad has hell. If he waited he would have won. Hamilton won , takes championships lead ........ guess its his lucky year, his car sucks, bottas always outdrive him and he get points and lead.
As for crashappen, its ridiculous, he always move under braking, he thinks he own everything. If it wasent from RIC giving him space/backing up they would have been gone way earlier. I hope MAx get some king of reprimand, im sure hell need a new gearbox for next race but still.
If i was RIC I would tell them to fuck off and leave RBR....wanna put everything around the kid, then try to win a championship with him
