No, Toro Rosso reverting to the 2007 car makes perfect sense, since Red Bull are trying to sabotage them by not donating any of their chassis to them since Toro Rosso are ahead of them, and it would be embarrasing if they lost to their junior team.

I realised if you reversed 2006, Alonso wins the title a race early in Malaysia, even with Fisichella winning. 2006 turns into a season where Michael was leading for most of it, but completely bottles it in the final 6 races. Massa & Button are also early season contenders. Reverse 2009 and Button wins it in the final race in Australia after completing an amazing late season run like Kimi in the real 2007 season.

But Timo Glock slowed down to Hamilton in Brazil on purpose, which is bigger controversy than the Crashgate.

Reverse 2005, where Kimi would actually lead the title in the second half, but San Marino, Bahrain & Malaysia would be blown away with a DNF, lack of pace and a tyre blow-out

[@matthiascerebri3315]

now do it for 2021 as well

I love this series and quite honestly, I prefer this alternate universe to the real one. I feel like this titel final would be even more drama. Obviously the next episodes of this series need to be 2007, 2009, 2021 and 2016. doing this reversed thing for 2022 and maybe 2023 in the future would be interesting too.

What video were you referring to about Kimi's sabotage?

[@PeterBrookF1]

The iceberg

[@darkpinktv6721]

Huh, i thought it would mean reverse as in last place gets first place

[@geeteshjoshi9828]

Please do 2021 season next 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Can't wait 1976 to see Lauda instantly recovering from his horrible Nürburgring crash, with a perfect plastic surgery.

[@brianboniuk1072]

Niki goes thru an experimental surgery to recover both his hair and remove all the burns from his face and body, truly a miracle of modern medicine 😅

[@withoutborders2023]

I wonder how reverse 2021 would pan out. Abu Dhabi seen as a controversy but FIA only gets a punch in the face for wanting more show than safety, then Saudi and Brazil when it becomes apparent Max and Lewis won't have a friendly title fight...

[@criscrisan8569]

Is that Glock?! 😂

[@RBenjo21]

Essentially the team orders at China are cancelled out by not-team-ordering at Spain in this world?

[@wild_sergeant716]

2021 in reverse.

[@dmor6696]

They could invert the official tracks themselves. Double the tracks, double the errors You welcome

[@theF1oracle]

Im not a Massa fan but this is an even worse way to lose out on a title !

[@dominiquecordone9531]

How would you invert spygate?

[@mrkipling2201]

1986 would be an interesting season to do this with. Would Nigel Mansell have actually won the World Championship?? As the tyre fiasco in Adelaide would have happened at the start of the season.........
