Formula 1 is making news in the legal world. (43:30) We are joined by Zach Bryson (@ZacharySBryson) who is a 2L at Elon Law to discuss that Fernando Alonso has decided to changed teams from Alpine to Aston Martin. To replace Alonso, Alpine wanted to bring up a reserve driver in Oscar Piastri to join their team. However, Piastri sends out a tweet stating: "I understand that, without my agreement, Alpine F1 have put out a press release late this afternoon that I am driving for them next year. This is wrong and I have not signed a contract with Alpine for 2023. I will not be driving for Alpine next year." Read Zach's full article here. An antitrust lawsuit has been filed against the PGA Tour with Phil Mickelson at the forefront of the Plaintiffs with regard to the suspensions golfers received for choosing to play in the LIV golf tour. (59:45) John Nucci (@JNucci23) joins to help break down this lawsuit. They are claiming that the actions of the PGA Tour has caused them to lose money. However, the big name players like Phil and Bryson Dechambeau are making more money now with the LIV tour, so the question is where are the lost earnings. Phil's current suspension with the PGA Tour goes until 2024. *** Have a topic you want to write about? ANYONE and EVERYONE can publish for ConductDetrimental.com.
