Is The Formula 1 Cost Cap ACTUALLY Working?
Рет қаралды 19,726
Күн бұрынSince the Formula 1 Cost Cap was introduced in 2021, it has been a major talking point in the F1 world of money. And there are still questions concerning if the Formula 1 cost cap is actually working... The main aim of the F1 cost cap is to level the F1 teams out a bit in terms of money, but is that actually working? Or is it just a useless exercise? Well, in this video I'll be diving into the details of the F1 cost cap and work out if it could actually work and if we are seeing an impact after just under two seasons. And trust me, I was pretty shocked at what I found...

This vid is brilliant, and dummy informative! But the cost cap will never be truly effective if rules are skirted bc “it’ll cost too much to do so.” A prime example is Alfa getting to the weight limit but the rest complaining that they can’t bc material costs. So instead of Alfa benefiting bc they budgeted and developed smartly; they’re punished for doing a better job
@TheRacingPilot Жыл бұрын
Exactly, there needs to be a much stricter format in place that doesn't allow rules to be skirted

Would it be possible for you to share the information sources, specifically in places where you have used numbers? I am writing an essay on the topic and would really appreciate it. Thank you.

So if I understand this right, for the mid to low teams nothing really changed and the top teams still have more money, but looking at your chart then the top 3 still operate with 150-200 mil less than they did in 2019 right? If that's the case then it seems at least it's had SOME effect, granted not enough though
@TheRacingPilot Жыл бұрын
Well not quite, in reality the top three teams only really have a reduced budget of maybe $20 million or so. This is because the cap only affects half their budgets anyway. So when you factor in the cap into half their budget, it's not all that much they have to reduce by 👍

if there would be f1 races that do not count to the championship or say you can race x times for the championship during the season, then teams could sit out and sort the car better or chase every race for a paycheck/save budget at critical points in the season. I think this would stretch teams' money.
@TheRacingPilot Жыл бұрын
Well but no one would race in that case because it's extra cost if it does count towards the championship. That way those races that don't count wouldn't be races because no one will compete

I still believe that if there is a crash, the offending team should pay for it. In 2021, Bottas by himself, damaged over 5 cars! Making other teams pay for that is insane to me. This rule should only be in place however, if it is 100% obvious who’s fault it was.
@TheRacingPilot Жыл бұрын
Well but as always it's hard to apportion blame to one driver 100%. The issue also comes from crashes like Schumacher in Monaco where it was only his fault but the team still has to work with that under the budget cap. Makes most sense to just not include it tbh
@dimitrijensk2845 Жыл бұрын
@@TheRacingPilot of course, I was more referring to clear incidents between different teams. To use the Bottas example again… the crash in Hungary was all on him. Completely his fault. So if it was up to me, there should have been an investigation into which cars were damaged because of that mistake and Mercedes should have had to pay the other teams accordingly.

@@TheRacingPilot Exactly. The biggest car companies in the world are the players of this game. It’s not like other sports, where you have teams in the most famous cities in the world playing teams from smaller markets and competing for players. This is a travelling circus starring the most famous brands in the world. If they’re not all gunning for the title, they should be moved aside for a team that is.
