And that seat could've been Senna's. Instead Bruno is racing an LMP2 with Rebellion next year.

So, Bottas to Mercedes and Massa to postpone retirement and stay at Williams is not finalised but as good as done, according to BBC.

You didn't hear about Rita??

He's still camped out up at the hairpin. Supplies must be running low, haven't seen him post in a while.

This guy is so full of ****. I think he's more delusional than Ron Dennis:

“If we had the best engine this year, we would have won races," Boullier told Autosport.
they could have had the best engine, but noooOOOOooo, had to go and get Honda...since they really did such a good job with their last F1 effort.



Perfect pairing for Ron - and just as delusional - who needs a sponsor? The Earth will sponsor us for free.

They would have scored more points with a Mercedes engine and a pay driver though.

They would be closer than they are as a factory Honda team.
