“We wanted to know what you think of what just happened between Nikita and Lewis.” The market or delicatessen negotiation between the Red Bull wall and Michael Masi will remain the main work of the show horrors exhibited in Saudi Arabia over the past weekend, but also on Saturday during the third free practice session there was an example of a dynamic that should be banned to restore power and authority to the Race Direction. It has now become the practice, in fact, to put ‘pressure’ on Michael Masi via radio without waiting for ‘justice’ to take its course and the Haas wall after having seen a very dangerous contact between Hamilton and Mazepin ‘reported’ the episode in Masi, as if it were needed. Toto Wolff’s statement to Masi during the British Grand Prix will also remain ‘historic’ “I sent you an email, did you see it?”.
In today’s edition of The Corriere della Sera Giorgio Terruzzi stresses that it would be necessary to start banning exchanges of opinion between referees and players, here are some excerpts: “The referee whistles and decides, without having to ask the coach on the bench what he thinks. The rest, at the bar, when things are done. Team principals know how to make their role weigh in constantly. Well, they can accept in silence at least what is decided after an incorrectness or an accident. Allowing Masi and his boys to think better, in a minimal but healthy freedom. For those who run, for those who watch “.
The ‘spectacularization’ of radio communications between the teams and the Race Direction is a recent novelty, but it has indeed revealed a not very edifying reality for professionals and enthusiasts. It should also not be forgotten that they are broadcast only a selection of radio communications, therefore an already partial point of view and potentially oriented by those who have chosen which excerpts to transmit. Less chatter and more action. In F1, the stopwatch must speak.
