    ... not my particular area of scholastic expertise, I happened to be following along, as always, live F1 timing and scoring, when George Russell electronically vanished from our monitors.

    Lots of these kind of assets floating around the Persian Gulf, no small wonder if Russell (e.g., Englishman in a German car) found himself singled-out, zapped?

    Corporation engineer, whacked out Islamic terrorist, field evaluating their new toy? Perfect proving ground, for a trial RFID attack? Grand Prix of Bahrain? Sizable gap between Piastri in the lead McLaren to second placed Russell approaching mid race, conceivable how someone might single-out a particular transponder, without affecting neighboring transponders?

    Have a look-see, if and when you find time:
