Bold prediction... Andretti to buy Enstone

sswishbone

Also on autosport. Looking at the maps it'd make a 12 corner circuit and could lead to some epic drafting between what is currently turn 13 and 14, as 13 would become a fast sweeper. DRS on pit straight, between 3 and 4, and 13 and 14 could make for a lot of overtakes. Also setups would be an intere...

Wouldn't normally post a Top 10 here, but number one is right up our street

Autosport have it up so lopks like Dr Baker is spot on here https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/148757/baku-set-to-be-postponed-as-f1-faces-further-delay At this rate I'm thinking we won't have a season at all. Unless they manage some Europe or Asia only 8 race mini championship. But, to me. stick a f...

Bahrain and Vietnam are also off now. With hot rumor suggesting we may have to wait as long as Baku for the season to start

sswishbone

Exactly that Rob, Spa wouldn't have a chance, I imagine Canada would baulk, Silverstone always complain about costs, Mexico have not had it easy... Could be serious threat this.

sswishbone

Yup, race to be held behind closed doors due to the virus: -

Looks like races may be cancelled if travel restrictions are imposed: -

Wait and see on this one guys

sswishbone

For the VSC.... why not just make it when called everyone hits the pit lane speed limiter? Same speed, no one loses out. Job done.

sswishbone

Since all the main ones have dried up I vote: - Channel 4 Commentary - Kept on saying how the race was an instant classic, such a classic they went from lap 25 to 45? Reeeeeal classic middle stint there guys. Sure the ending was exciting, but stop creaming your load. Canada 2011 or USA 2012 this was...

Lando Norris's Suspension - Seriously what happened there? Would have come around 7th had his car not given up

sswishbone

https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/143914/fia-to-reinforce-marshal-rules-after-perez-nearmiss

I know it's a tie but fact they were on track WITHOUT PERMISSION is beyond reject worthy

sswishbone

Track Marshals again for this

sswishbone

Channel 4 Highlights - Where to start? How about NO 'THE CHAIN'!! Then there's the pundits who had zero chemistry, the horrific 'I am' vignettes and then - worst of all - spoiler commentary samples from later in the race.

Balls to Sky and nuts to Channel 4.

Red Bull unveiled yesterday...

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/47229337

What the hell is that? It looks awful!

sswishbone

Personally I don't see why this is needed when one small change can sort this out. The controversial tyres from Q2 rule is the problem. With teams given free choice outside the top ten. My solution? Scrap the tyre rule from qualifying, reduce the total amount of free sets for the weekend, and enforc...

Magnussen's Fastest Lap - Nice to see some pace finally after a tough weekend

sswishbone

To keep options open - despite how obvious this Perez's win - I nominate That highlights screen Lewis parked on

sswishbone

I thought this was a faaaaaake at first, but wow... Silliest season ever?

sswishbone

Things have got even more silly, Buemi has had a Toro Rosso fitting and apparently Red Bull will quit F1 in 2020 if Honda don't make them title contenders...

sswishbone

Autosport reading the forum?

https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/fia-reveals-drs-changes-for-remainder-of-f1-2018/3166260/

What the hell is this? INCREASE the DRS zones? Do they want to make the whole two-tier class racing even worse? This is pathetic!

sswishbone

That rumour won't happen unless Mercedes jettison their evaluation of RPFI being a junior team.

sswishbone

This is a total farce, utter farce. So if they're excluded do the points for other races where they scored get redistributed?

sswishbone

Not at all surprised with this one. Be nice to see Lando and Stoffel battling over a season though, be very interesting how that turns out.

sswishbone

Looks pretty accurate to me, Ocon is the loser here as look what happened to Werhlein's career when being Merc's sleeper in the lower cars

sswishbone

I was actually expecting this switch as he will be the number one driver without a doubt. Renault have been good so far at bringing performance to the car, plus they were double world champions in the last era. By working immediately with the manufacturer he can doubtless influence the engine buildi...

How does this work? Perez instigates court action for unpaid salary but drives in Hungary? **Does not compute!!**

sswishbone

Force India in Administration

https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/13768 ... nistration

Does this affect their ability to compete this weekend?

sswishbone

RIP such a shame

sswishbone

Trophies - talk about a crap reward for all that effort

sswishbone

Well it is no surprise, he has looked lost and in the background of stormy waters. Mclaren have been accused in recent years of being too mechanistic and clean. They have lacked a hands on leader who can drag the team forwards. Not sure who is a good replacement in that mould like, but they need som...

sswishbone

I vote for ATTRITION it was so nice to see driver's order being shook up and people having to work to make it to the end

sswishbone

IIDOTR thread should be interesting this week!

sswishbone

Drivers saying the layout has been confusing and tough to learn fills me with some hope. Be nice to see a mistake like Raikonnen did all those years ago at Interlagos There's been murmurings that drivers want the chicane before turn 10 removed, with Brendon Hartley bringing his time with Porsche int...

sswishbone

Ricciardo will not go to Mclaren surely? He's seen how much Alonso has gone to waste there right?

sswishbone

Yup, get cars that can follow each other, problem solved

sswishbone

Horner is such a hypocrite! "Oooh one stop races are not conducive to excitement, we're too conservative with the tyres!" Does he not remember 2013 where his incessant whining led to the steel belted tyres being abandoned and a Vettel snorefest for the last nine races? Automatic reject of ...

Yeah, through no fault of his own yet again. Watch Gasly get a podium now...

Oh I agree it's bugger all to do with him but the axe of Mr Marko shall fall on this one

Bye bye Hartley, best of luck in your future endeavours
