Kimi presumably, he's not a member of the GPDA, as far as I know. He even has a go at former drivers. Although I cannot get what he expects from them

Which is silly since they won't be scoring any points will they? ![]() |

I think he has a point (at least about drivers not being part of the GPDA). It doesn't take much effort to be a member, if 18 drivers can do it then so can the other 4. Hamilton's excuse of him being too busy is rubbish really. |

If they don't want to join, why should they? |

Surely for the most part, the safety of the drivers is up to the FIA? Ah, good point, maybe it would be better for people with half a brain to be involved too.... lol |

I never said it made sense... I guess they'd still get the joining fee. But REally cant see why they'd want to join

I'm sure that the group also discusses on track protocol. ie how far back to start an overtaking manouver and what constitutes a gap etc... |

Well funnily enough, it was actually DC who mentioned this if I recall, as a retort to one of his many 'encounters' |

I can kind of see where Truli is coming from, but at the same time there is the "so what" factor. I'm certain Kimi and Lewis are not against safety, they just choose not to belong to the group. Simply don't invite them to the GDPA Christmas Party. |
