Team principle silly season
Big statement about Seidls confidence in McLaren when Audi don’t even start until 2026
Fred to Ferrari wasn’t a surprise.
Silly season 2.0
Vasseur is a good choice, je create one of the most important f2/f3 team ART. It is at the origin of drivers like Bottas, Grosjean, Russel, Hulkenberg, Hamilton
Can’t land Seidel for leaving , race director to ceo is literally doubling your salary
I have a feeling Seidl did not choose to leave Mclaren. Andrea has been in F1 for a long time and worked with Michael Schumacher, Kimi, and Alonso. His cars have always been oversteering monsters that need a driver who likes that type of car. Lando is one of those drivers, who prefers a loose car. I think this is a strategic move by Mclaren.
Will it be a good decision or will it be sui-Seidl?
It seems for the first time McLaren is the one caught sleeping when it comes to contracting personnel : )
Actually doesnt suprise me after i read it, Seidl already had close ties with VW by being with porsche a few years back, now its the other VW group brand that he is joining
Bro what?? Why is Seidl gone 😭
I feel if binotto went to Sauber to be Team principal while Seidl remains CEO, that would be an extreme show of force by Audi, which would definitely be seen across the paddock. Or binotto could go to Williams, and hopefully bring them up the order. I still wonder where Porsche and Andretti fit in with all of this…
Surprised McLaren didn't sign 3 team principals from 3 different teams all of whom were locked in to existing contracts
Wonderboy genius Seidl jumping ship? Second time things not working out at McLaren after Ricciardo!
So who is mclaren team principal?
Tommo where does one get that hat??? It’s awesome
It was Mike Krack who had previously worked with Seb when Seb drove briefly for BMW Sauber, not Andreas Seidl. Krack was associated with Red Bull Sauber/BMW Sauber from 2001 to 2009. Seidl has led BMW Motorsports and was involved with the Porsche LeMans program as well, with Mike Krack. This is Seidl's first rodeo with Sauber and McLaren was his first role in any capacity in Formula 1. I'm amazed that nobody in the chat corrected Tommo.
McLaren don't even have to change the letters on the principal's headphones which might be huge for cost saving.
not a surprise to me. seidl get the chance to run a WORKS f1 team, formally worked for Porsche, CEO title. the timing was a shock but this was a prime opportunity for most parties involved
Tommo, you glossed over the part of the Sauber article that said ‘Siedl and the Sauber group will appoint a Team Principal soon’ he will be CEO and not TP. Maybe for a short while until they find someone but it’s not the plan
Just hire American's as team principles, Euros don't know how to do business or how to lead. I can't blame them though, they grew up in a dying country that was more irrelevant by the day.
Yeah Vettel filled in for Kubica after the Canada crash in 2007, then joined Toro Rosso in 2008
I remember when I just got into crypto back in 2017 but later in 2018 I ended up selling it because I was dumb and I didn't understand it. I studied and learned and now I know how it works. Got back into crypto early in 2021 and looks like we have the same mentality, I admit that seeing a -50% hurts but it's not a realized loss until you sell. Now I buy and just trade and I'm super picky who I listen too for crypto analysis..with Florence Osborn in few weeks, I have made over 22btc with Florence Osborn Signal in few weeks, this is one of the best medium to backup your assets incase it goes bearish.
We all know where Piastri will go at the end of the 2 year contract that he has with McLaren. Audi is making a team here.
I was surprised at first until I remembered about audi its a bit weird with him leaving now with us still quite far from audi entering the sport but I guess that if he didn't take that he would've of risked whoever there replacement was taking that spot instead of him
can you make a video about team principal silly season plsssss
