Re: Paddy Lowe officially leaves Williams
Personally I don't think the fault of the design of the car lays with Paddy Lowe entirely. You don't become a rubbish designer over night, having designed championship winning Mercedes and Mclaren's in the recent past he's clearly good at his job. There are deeper problems at Williams, and he's gone...

Re: 90 days for Honda to show McLaren they can be competitiv
What I don't understand, is why haven't Honda chucked a PU in a Japanese super formula car and just pounded around Suzuka for days and days until they get it right?

I believe that the real farce in Formula one is the lack of clear leadership from the FIA on things like the driver weight, and the way that Bernie / Red Bull and Ferrari are allowed to bring the sport in disrepute by constantly slagging off the amazing work being done in F1. We many not all agree o...

What Bernie is most likely trying to do is get a good amount for his current shares whilst keeping control via agreement. Then de-value the sport by slagging it off and taking it to countries where it wont work...the but it back for a super cheap price. (He's done it twice before!)
