I feel so bad for all of the team members that don’t get any say at all

While we wait, hoping for a positive outcome, here’s something interesting. That Honda engine does a great job when it’s working. Merc is a bit mixed.

Unfortunately two completely different things. Masi worked for the FIA, led by Suleyman now. Domenicali and Brawn are with liberty media/FOM. And they have leadership positions, they’re not going to fire themselves.
Yes and no . Well liberty media is public company with bunch of shareholders and with chairman so it's doable
Plus it's publicly traded company - bad press - your value is going down - very unhappy shareholders
Cash is king

Well the fact the meeting is going on so long clearly shows drivers aren't happy about this going ahead.

Believe cash is king
well the shareholders are happier with the race going ahead because if they cancel and all the big middle east sponsors pull out, they’re in trouble

In Germany we say “the last will be the first”. 25 years on this planet and I don’t quite now what it means but let’s just apply it to the orange tractors

This is not how the market works aramco is sponsor to F1 not to the Liberty media. Plus LM have many other operations under their wings that are not connected with F1 but this could hurt them
Plus this is question about 2000 -3000 people who are included in this circuis if they put them in danger that can lead to big backlash

That’s not what I’m referring to. I mean all the private investors from the Middle East that are throwing money at F1 and the teams who will be upset should this entire thing be cancelled. That’s definitely one of their thoughts when they say let’s do this.

Apparently 5 drivers don’t want to go ahead. I told you it would be the minority of them.

Doesn't have to be because now big part of world will be looking at them and start solving they shit again and thats not good for whole Saudi
And aramco also needs F1 so wouldn't be so easy just pull the plug

Well we know Max isn’t scared, I’m thinking Kevin, Hulk, Checo as they all have young families

Hmmm wonder who. Lewis, George, Checo, Pierre, Max? Assuming Seb isn't part of this. Only adding Max after his 'where there's war, there shouldn't be racing' quote.

Helmut Marko was quoted as saying Max didn’t care but that Checo was concerned on sky Germany

It’s really hard for the drivers, all the team principals have unanimously decided to go ahead so they aren’t going to have their teams backing them up

It really should not be up to them at all to make the decision, if they go they’ll be in trouble with f1, if they stay they’ll be getting slated online

Also with f1 adamantly stating that they are safe to everyone some of them will probs believe that when in reality are they actually
