Or he was just like


I'm sure he'll be back for the next session. Will check the internets for driver impressions later. I'm curious if they like the new regs or not.

sorry i thought we covered it in the past. somebunny locked the '16 thread where it belongs

you can see how quick VET was in the last stint and HAM had the wick turned down but he didn't completely park it on an apex like i expected.

If Ham had been thinking like a champion he would have slowed more and let Max and Seb by both Mercs and THEN passed them back. Toto would have lost his ****.

Tim2179 is off to a flying start in 2017 - but can he hold on to win the title? Too early to tell folks.

I was hoping for the same. Or if he got passed by Seb and/or Max, just pull a NPJr and "my brakes went crazy" and punt Ham off in the chicken.

totes.

The hamsters of the world/interwebs thinks this was some German nationalist conspiracy. Forgetting for a moment the cars and engines are made in the UK.

Who knows, this could be the best thing to happen to HAM. He may be a beast next season on a quest to totally assert his dominance over Rosberg.

Did you read my driver intro?!

FTR, I totally think this is the scenario that plays out. If the car is good enough, HAM is going to be rampaging in it. I hope Britney gets the Champion's lift as JB did (Kimi not so much). JB turned in some solid drives post 2009, and I like to think it was because he had already proved he was "the man".

At the end of F1 2017, I'll (hepefully) be graduating again. Can't wait.

Eh, with the testing rules the way they are any time on track is valuable. Probably why he was trying so hard to be at the test.

not sure if srs.

I'd think its just as likely he was forced to be there, but pulled the sick/nausea card to GTFO of there. I suppose he could have actually been really sick. I just don't see him carrying much about testing these days. Not like he's suffered for (lack of) it.

I missed the edits that were going on and didn't realize you added to falcon's post.

So who do you guys think will land the Sauber and Manor seats?

Probably someone that will be in Formula E within 2 years.
