  1. I wonder if HRT will ever both rejoining?

    1. What can FOTA offer HRT? HRT has more important things to worry about than the free cup of tea served at these meetings.

      1. But it should be inclusive, I agree HRT have more to worry about but I don’t like the fact that teams can opt out for whatever reason be it money or disagreement. I think FOTA is a big positive for the sport and those currently in position have done well

  2. Good thing they don’t have HRT there.
