Very proud of McLaren that they apparently came to this decision without any assurances that the race would be cancelled. I fully expected other teams to start pulling out right after their announcement.

I support cancelling the season, but only if we still give the WDC 2020 to Lewis. We all know he was gonna win it, so it's only fair.

Lewis wouldn't accept a shameful "by default" trophy. Just make the season an esport have it online. Also members of the public should be able to compete for drivers seats if they can beat them in sim. Gunna get me a Haas seat.

Do what Bahrain is doing and make it event-staff only. And then ban Mercedes from the sport forever.

[edit] McLaren did the right thing because they're a good team that means well and Zak Brown is a thoughtful, level-headed CEO and not at all a "Hak Clown"
