Why do we keep letting new builds be built on old quarries?

 

Bosses agreed on Tuesday to "increase the numbers of mandatory pit stops in the race", according to a statement from governing body the FIA.

The FIA said the plan would be "further discussed" at F1's sporting advisory committee.

But insiders have told BBC Sport the plan is for drivers to have to do two pit stops and use all three available tyre compounds during the Monaco race.

In the event of a wet race, drivers would still have to do two stops, although tyre choice would be more flexible.

Yeah, looked up the guy's salary and it's apparently 500k. So he can afford it, but it's still a lot.

The World Rally Championship's Adrien Fourmaux has become the first driver sanctioned under the new FIA stewards' penalty guidelines.

Having finished the Rally Sweden power stage on Sunday, the Frenchman used the F-word during his post-stage interview, which was broadcast live.

In response, the stewards handed him a €30,000 fine, with €20,000 of that suspended for 12 months. In accordance to the FIA International Sporting Code (ISC), the first €10,000 must be paid within 48 hours of notification.

Are the Formula E races still a fight for second until the last lap? It's kind of exciting at first, but then all the excitement over the overtakes seems a bit artificial.

I think Gasly is getting/had a hair transplant, but not sure about Doohan. Maybe it's in his contract to not make Gasly look bad.

Basically it was argued that it would be hard to implement for Monaco.

"It was originally, I think round seven that they were going to change it,” Vowles told media including RacingNews365.

“We highlighted that it had Monaco in between, and it's really difficult for teams to effectively have the right stock of front wings for Monaco.

“So we got deferred back to the race after Monaco.”

Despite the late changes teams will have to make, Vowles does not think it will impact Williams as much as other squads.

“Our wing was already along the pipeline of production when the rules changed,” Vowles admitted.

“In terms of exploiting that area, I think you'll find all teams are doing what they can, but there are going to be teams that are more advanced in that area than others.

“I don't think we're market-leading in that particular area. 

“However, what I can also say is the rule change around [race] nine doesn't particularly trouble us. 

“As a result of that, and it probably will have a more profound effect on others.”

TL;DR

An upcoming Google Messages update will remove the convenient SIM selector from the compose section.

The setting is moving to the conversation details section, adding an extra step to the process of swapping SIMs for texting individual contacts.
