ETA2: we do use inches/miles in poetic ways ("he was lost in thought/miles away" or "his lips were a bare inch away").

- 15 races AT MOST

- real tracks only except we keep monaco but they race in randomly chosen cars from previous seasons, all of them

- we rotate tracks every year but city circuits are banned and so are tilkedromes unless we like them (like cota)

- sprinklers are implemented

- proximity radio between the cars is allowed so that for example lawson and checo can yell at each other freely. if you get voted driver of the day you get one way radio to someone where they can't reply for the next race

- absolutely NO triple headers. if you suggest quadruple headers you are shot on sight

- driver briefings are shown live. it's filmed like the office. tp meetings are also shown live but it's filmed like a horror movie

- if your team fucks up the strategy the head of strategy has to do press after the race instead of whoever's race they ruined (ferrari send both the head and the deputy)

- max has the fastest car every third race but he must start p22. just to see what happens. if there's rain he must give one lap advantage to the rest of the field

At which point they will find an ovarian cyst, but they now get whatever fucked up satisfaction they derive out of proving you wrong, because you didn't believe it could a cyst at all, but guess what? They did find a cyst! It's such a good thing you didn't listen to your intuition and came to them to verify your lay diagnosis from that third party! Bonus? Doctor doesn't have to feel like they look stupid in front of a patient, which is really what all this is about. Not your health, why would you think your medical diagnosis is about your health? It's obviously about a doctor's potential ego.

And apparently this works. Apparently you just need to be able to always play 4D chess with your medical professionals in order to find an avenue of advocating for yourself and getting you medical needs met. Isn't that great?
