Apparently the Powers to Be Down Under got stuck in
the Molasses of the Honey Badgers?
By now, even if you're Underneath a Rock, you
still know that All Motor Racing has gone Full Stop due to the Corona Virus, or
Covid 19 Pandemic sweeping thou Globe.
As the most seriously affected event over the
beginning of the Open wheel Racing weekend's Calendar was Formula 1. For which
I was simply Bamboozled over the apparent refusal of the FIA to Postpone the
Australian Grand Prix on the basis of announcing that 324,000 Spectators had
attended last year's event over four days; Aye Karumba!
And F1's indecision after One of McLaren's Personnel
tested Positive for Covid 19 on the Eve of the Grand Prix commencing was simply
unconscionable!
Not to mention that it was reported hours
prior to the Keystone Cops finally telling everybody to Go Home! That 'lil Syd
viddle and his Pal Kimi The
Original Iceman Raikkonen had left the Albert Park venue at 6AM Friday morning!
Which the BBC Noted while the Event still hadn't been Publicly Scrapped;
CRIKEYS!
And Gasp! Am I really gonna say this? Especially
since when Uncle Bernaughty was at the Helm, his Decree always was The Show
Must G-O On! But now sagely notes that the FIA simply left Thar Decision too
late!
Whilst Golden Child, nee Lewis Hamilton is
being Hailed as a Clairvoyant "Hero" for pronouncing the reason F1
was trundlin' on towards Hosting the Australian Grand Prix was simply because
"Cash is King!" Which although Absolutely true, it's simply Rich
coming from presumably the Highest Paid F1 Driver on the Grid!
And while I totally understand that the Corona
Virus is a far More Serious matter then the Fans being Hoodwinked by the
ineptitude of the FIA, Liberty Media and the Race Promoter, nonetheless, things
obviously could have been handled far better. Since why does this whole Shemozzle
make me think it reeks shades of Michelin-Gate at the 2005 USGP!
As Hopefully
Formula 1 will do Far Better whenever it returns, potentially at Zandvoort.
Although I'm Not impressed hearing 'bout giving special Dispensation to Red
Bull to Drive upon the Beach just so they Don't have to be Delayed in Traffic
like the Paying Customers Do!
Whilst conflicting
reports continue, saying that now perhaps even the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Baku
in early June won't happen. But who really knows?
