That is so messed up. It's a shame he didn't think to call Richard. I realize it was 3 AM but still, a true friend isn't gonna care.

I don't think I've seen a bad looking Vanquish. Wish I could hear it. Bet that V12 sings

Button almost went to TR in 2009. If that had happened he wouldn't have been WDC with Brawn (obviously) but wood he have moved up to RB in 2010? That opens up some interesting what ifs. I think he's probably faster than Webbah in those dominant RBs. Wood the team have allowed him to beat SEB doe?

ALO officially signs for Mclaren-Renault after almost singlehandedly pushing out Honda.

Teams can only run 3 engines for the entire 2018 season.

Rumor on F1T that Honda is paying McLaren 40 million (basically Fred's salary) for some PU components that McLaren developed/produces. I have a hard time buying that doe. Will be interesting to see if that rumor has any truth to it.

Yeah and that was their choice. I don't want to see that excuse mentioned every GP. Boulliar even said it wouldn't be that big of an issue. It put them 2 weeks behind. Hire some extra blokes (spoiler I know it isn't that easy) but EB did say that they could make up that time.

Challenge RB or quit your bitchin'. I'm tired of the Merc show with support from Ferrari and occasionally RB. Honda needs to put on their big boy britches too...

They kinda haf too. Renault said GTFO and Ferrari and Merc don't have the sac to give em a PU. I wonder if Aston Martin's hiring of some PU people is for their own efforts or to help RB and Honda with PU development.

Would love to see McLaren and Renault at the front of the field again.

It'll be like 2005 all over

What will end up happening is STR Honda will get about 200 grid penalties.

yes they do

i'm still playing f1 2014 after recently finishing playing 2013

i'm in my first season, leading the championship but only because a SC caught HAM out and he finished in 6th place in Bahrain. i'm a #2 driver at best and i can't manage my tyres over a full stint.
