RB had bouncing issues at beginning of the year. They fixed it and made their car better. Hamilton and co need to lift their cars to ensure their drivers are safe.

[OttovanTimmeren]

It's sounds like it's Redbulls problem... strange isn't it? Mercedes and his actors Lewis and George looking for the easy way out after a stupid design to start with

[Cubaquois]

My question is, what has Mercedes done for the health of their drivers?
Nothing, except cry again to FIA.
Mercedes have had a super car in the beginning of 2000, and race directors were saying to drivers to slow down because they were too fast and the FIA would oblige them to share their tricks. Now the shoe is on the other side, and Mercedes seem to be confused about them not being right.

[adamm.]

There is a solution. Whether teams embrace it is their choice, and risk their drivers health. But that doesnt mean every team (including those who have fixed the bouncing) should have to conform. Mercedes wants special treatment, and so does Hamilton. Time for both to step away from the sport for a while.

How unfair to change rules during an ongoing season ……… Red Bull solved Porpoising having no problem, Mercedes trying everything, the little play at #Baku showed Mercedes maybe better of as an theater company at the West End or Broadway. Mercedes only have to jack up their car, accept the increase of drag and there is no porpoising. So if Mercedes, Wolff, Russell and Hamilton really want safety, they just have to go to a higher setup and all is well, but is not about safety, it is about closing the gap between Ferrari and Red Bull ……crybabies!!

[dutchguy]

All cars had porpoising in the beginning of the season, including Red Bull.. there are teams that did their homework and were able to make changes to their cars to reduce porpoising, with McLaren and Red Bull being the most on top of the issues. Ferrari and the Mercs are suffering the most, so it should be up to the teams to reduce porpoising. Increasing drive height reduces performance.. so Ferrari and Mercedes CHOOSE to suffer of porpoising.

[lisaruhm]

Well Mercedes can probably only get quicker IF they manage to solve porposing and manage to catch up in car development. Forcing everyone to change would be unfair to all the teams that have solved or minimized porposing.

[annettevanminkelen]

Pretty biased this video. RB did experience bouncing at the beginning. They fixed it. Mecerdes disigned a shitty car and they can’t fiix it without slowing the car down. So now the FIA has to change the rules? If the RB can drive without the bouncing, why can’t Mercedes? But hey this video is made by a guy from the UK probably. Biased as usual and taking words out of context.

[tgamron]

If the situation was flipped. What would Mercedes say?

[Controvi]

3 min in and I can't really watch any further.
The dramatization and speculation of what was meant against is to much here.

Max has never said that the FIA regulation chance would be an advantage for MB or a disadvantage for RB.
Also, they way the relationship between max and Hamilton is set up here is just not true.
There is no hate between the 2 drivers and both have shown no signs of it.
When they disagreed it was 90% of the time work related and voicing their opinion on their side of the story.

I don't really get why media in general wants to create all the drama here while it has shown last year what a toxic environment it creates with fans on and offline

there is just 2 camps on the porpoising issue and Max is NOT furious at all,
Just watch his interviews and read the articles where he justs states his opinion in a normal way.

I do agree with RB and the drivers who don't like the way FIA is doing things yet again.
The porpoising is something that can be solved by the teams already but need daddy FIA to tell them to do it for some reason.


In my mind the people complaining about the porpoising don't want to accept that their car is just not working well and rather have back pains then dropping perfomance.
The drivers could have easily told the teams to make the car less stiff and increase the ride height to make make the porpoising be less or gone.
But they didn't and thus the FIA should not do anything.

[ioannispoulakas]

So if some teams had brake issues and needed to brake earlier on every turn then should all teams need to brake earlier? Of course not. Just fix your car if you have porpoising. Let's see if this porpoising measurement sceme will negativity affect teams that have no issues with porpoising.

[lorddemon]

There is a solution but it can affect the performance of the car, so each team must decide how much they are willing to sacrifice to fix that problem. But Hamilton doesn't seem willing to fix it unless every team does, too. In other words, he is being selfish, Team Mercedes wants everyone to lower the performance of their cars so that they (Mercedes) can have an advantage over everyone else again.

[starbase]

Isn’t the issue that RB has solved the porpoising problem, so they have proved that it can be solved. If other teams choose not to do it, or are unable to, why should RB suffer because of that? If other teams can’t fix the problem, they can adjust the ride height if the car bounces so badly that it’s unsafe or unhealthy for the driver.

[probablygraham]

Red Bull had power unit problems this season, and they fixed them. I don't remember the FIA saying that they had to change the rules so that all the other teams had similar problems.
I found it very interesting watching the onoard cameras in the Mercedes cars on Friday and Saturday. Not only could you see the drivers being bounced up and down, you could hear what I assume was the plank hitting the track. But it seems that because the cars were faster than they have been of late that it miraculously doesn't hurt the drivers any more.

[PatQuakernaat]

Nah, LewSir is just doing politics and trying to find ways to get help
You forget the main remark from Max, he said drivers should speak for themselves and not speak on behalf of others.
If LewSir finds it a safety issue, he should not drive it or not being allowed to drive it untill they solve the purpoising.
Other teams besides RBR have found a way otherwise just raise the floor

[timbiggs]

Hamilton uses the radio to promote his agenda, knowing the conversation is often made public. The dramatic exit from his car after Baku was an acting performance on par with Amber Heard’s crying on the stand. And/or George Russel is Wolverine as he seemed fine getting out of his car. Must have a Healing Factor. Perhaps, just maybe, it’s Hamilton trying to offer porpoising as a reason he can’t even beat his ‘rookie’ teammate let alone be the competitive driver of previous years

[suhdud]

The teams need to solve the issue with ride height, if not then the fia needs to penalize teams for running unsafe cars.

Why in previous years did teams running at the back not call for rule changes to get all other cars inline with their performance?

[hibbelton]

Mercedes, wow they went from the absolute top to rock bottom. Such a bunch of sore loosers

[mfarends]

FIA helping teams solve the porpoising issue is not right. The engineering of each team is responsible for this and the set up of the cars should be adjusted until they are able to.

[darkjannn]

Red Bull shows that it's possible to have a fast car that doesn't bounce around. I think the spirit of motorsport would be to suffer or be slow, unti you've found a solution equally as good. Just like the FIA verdict.
