Accessing Max Verstappen's passport and PII through FIA bugs

i respectfully disagree with this sentiment. i think that in general, reinventing the wheel can be a great learning opportunity in understanding how the wheel works.

It can. But it can be very bad at producing wheels that don't break.

Not if you understand how the wheel works. That's the whole point.

But maybe do that on a smaller scale personal project?

Reinventing the wheel for Formula 1 driving…

Depending on the wheel, maybe. Nowadays it's more standardized - same rims for example. The tires are standardized.

There's a lot less freedom in reinventing the wheel in formula 1 nowadays

The steering wheel of course isn't even a wheel anymore, for a long time. It's some video game console / airplane cockpit looking monstrosity.

I funnily just read a whole Twitter thread that had this same thesis, not 45 minutes ago... What a small world

Great to reinvent the wheel for your mom and pop blog, or to teach yourself these concepts and try to break in. But not for authn and authz for something official like this.
