My life is misery. But I finish classes tomorrow, wrap up the semester on the 9th, and then start my internship on the 15th (of May).

THEN MY FINAL SEMESTER AND I CAN BE WHOLE AGAIN.

I am here to discuss F1. This season is interesting, even if the races have not been.

How about that MotoGP at COTA.

How is everybody?

Merc/Ferrari seem close. Close enough that I think the only way Merc doesn't pull a 2007 McLaren is if they choose to make Lewis a clear number one & give BOT the full Barichello.

Renault looks good.

Toro Rosso looks good.

Stroll looks butt.

Perez is a stud.

McHonda looks better than expected.

Ferrari has to change turbos on both cars, using their 3rd of 5, penalties coming before end of season.

Honda had to change Waffle's engine after FP1. 15 place grid penalty already.

Impressive.

I guess that day of 'reliability' during testing was not A1.

Cept only 4 of each available this season.

GRO still complaining about brakes despite a switch to a different manufacturer. KMag not complaining so is GRO issue now purely mental after a full season of brake issues?

Welcome back Bluu and Esteban.

Ferrari looking tough in that middle sector. Hope Merc doesn't magically find 7 tenths 2mrw.

Thanks dude! Wheels going on next weekend, my body is ready. 100% recommend S2000, but do also recommend house.

House is going well! Been working to make it look nice and just adopted a cat last night, named the little dude Otis. He seems to love the place, he's small enough (even at nine months old) that he can scoot around and hide under everything; even my really low tables. Watching him crawl through the legs on the coffee table was great.

Clearly no mouse. You didn't comprehend that Bluu got a cat. +1 for Bluu being a cat person.

How much tenths is da mystery oil worth?

I'm cool with doggos too.

Cat just makes more sense for me. I'm away a fair bit during the summer, with a dog that'd be quite troublesome.

inb4 he destroys all my furniture today while he's on his own.

Buxton has really come into his own in recent years. I enjoyed that piece. I haven't seen the European article he alluded to, but the Fryer article was absolute trash.

Neither or both.

She just seems clueless.

She would be a great addition to Black Flag on Jalopnik.
