F1 Drivers Question Possible Salary Cap As They ‘Put Their Lives at Risk’

Formula One drivers did not hold back their thoughts on the ongoing driver salary cap discussions.

The sport introduced a budget cap last year to limit team spending in an effort to level the playing field, and it currently rests at $140 million with a few exceptions. For example, driver salary caps are currently not part of it.

The budget cap has already raised concerns among some of the larger teams as inflation continues to rise.

The sport is considering implementing driver salary caps at some point in the future, but no agreement has been made.
