Negociations only work if you are willing to walk away. They could always return if the conditions become more favorable again, but those days may be gone for F1.

Where is the option for all of the above?

6speed

Pretty poor. On the plus side we now know there is a worse alternative to ex f1 drivers doing podium interviews..... Current drivers. Damn that was hard to watch. They need to stop doing that garbage and go back to proper interviews. Kudos to you both for watching the race to the end, I could not s...

Do they have a monkey throwing darts for setting the price on this thing? Two years ago it was ridiculously expensive, last year it was much more reasonable but now the price has tripled again. Bit disappointed to be honest. I agree completely. I just got the update on my iPad and it now has the pr...

More show less go, thumbs down from me.

6speed

No, not at all.

After that, autonomous driving cars. Might as well. My thoughts exactly. Active suspension depending upon implementation rules could lead to function traction control. Folks are excited to see some sliding around this season that would put an end to that again, drivers could just hammer the corners...

Huh? Is his car running? I can't hear a thing.

6speed

I can not believe this double points rule is still alive. I thought it was a stunt to keep fans interested during the off season. The reality that a random mechanical failure could change the championship after a season of racing is bad for the sport. No, no make it go!

Stole this from the Sky Sports website: Here's more from Craig Slater on how Mercedes' legal defence has also shed more light on the communications with the FIA which they believe gave them clearance to test. "We heard this morning from the FIA about details of exchanges between the Mercedes and th...

It's racing not a gentleman's drive to church.

He seems to have lost his mojo, race craft issues aside he has not been getting the most from the car all season.

Hankook was pushing to get a deal if Pirelli was not renewed, I would expect them to be the likely replacement. Heck maybe their negociations are keeping the Pirelli contract in the air.

Audi running the only all Audi setup, chassis and engine, then if they win we could have all the drama of how they must be cheating.b

Detractors will always detract. Just keep winning.

Oops I miss voted because I read too quickly, thanks for allowing for re-vote!

6speed

Well if Webber does leave it is not like Red Bull will have problems filling his seat.

6speed

I say no I think Webber's more of a professional than to hold a grudge like that. I expect him to continue racing hard and go about his job.

For the last race some teams were running with lighter fuel loads for race day to try to minimize tyre wear. They were talking about that during the broadcast. They took a gamble hoping for a few flags to slow the pace to make up the difference.

All goes back to the marshmallow tyres.

6speed

The spot light on this site seems to be on Vettle but I was actually hoping Nico would pass Lewis more for himself and his career. Nothing against Lewis by any means but on this day Nico was in a better position to push at the end so they should have let him run. Would a young Schumacher follow orde...

Nothing new really this is still related to the tyres. Everyone from teams to drivers are out tere managing their tyres which is not new either it all comes down to how much of their energies need to go into managing their tyres. This race highlighted the fragile nature of the tyres resulting in tea...

6speed

Fun race with the drama at the end. Would have been rather boring if the Redbulls didn't stir things up at the end. The controversy pulled the attention away from how dominant the tires were that session.

The streaming app only works for certain tv providers, no Directv or Dish. I was bummed to find that out also. The streaming app is free to download but to watch anything you need to have a supported cable company account. We have Dish Network. It's not a supported provider. As further insult NBC S...

I downloaded the NBC Sports Extra app today and it still does not list Formula 1 as one of its supported sports. I also read that they are supposed to be streaming the coverage. Keeping my fingers crossed as well.

I am expecting 2013 in the end will have the same top four teams battling it out, in no particular order, Red Bull, Ferrari, McLaren, Lotus. We may even see Red Bull win it all again as the last season of the V8 era.

I expect the majority of the 2013 season to be focused on the 2014 rule changes.

6speed

This is good news to me, we can finally drop the "NASCAR channel" from our Dish subscription!

6speed

I'm a little worried of the blind corners with traffic, obviously we'll see soon enough if they turn out to be dangerous. With the track being so green I hope we have a clean race.

6speed

I voted Mercedes without question. With Brawn at the helm, Mercedes AMG finance and engineering, top tier drivers in the seats, on paper they should be a solid #4 in the constructors pushing for #3 or better. Instead they are possibly going to drop to #6 by year's end. As I have mentioned before, I ...

I may look at this differently, but I feel Michael's woes are becoming a glaring embarrassment for Mercedes, not a reflection on Michael. It's Brawn and company that have to be feeling incredible pressure to perform. I hope Mercedes is not embarrassed out of F1 due to their blunders.

It's a temporary cicuit and I think it's a park when it's not a race track.

Oh that makes sense, thanks for the insight.

If you have access to it, SpeedTV says they are streaming P1 on their website, "live sights and sounds", however, the stream as not started yet on my end. Refresh, refresh, refresh.

I voted 5, I would not be surprised to see less racing and more parade laps due to the tires being worthless. 2011 the year the blown diffuser, 2012, the year of the Pirrelli tires in all their glory.

6speed

Nico's time was on inters?! At the same time Hamilton was running fast on mediums? Ok maybe there's something to their magic wing.

Thanks for starting the thread! I can't wait to see some racing, err, practicing...

There's quite a few news stories about on this, here's a quote from one: "According to The Telegraph, Mercedes GP is unhappy about the favoritism displayed to certain teams in the new Concorde Agreement, and is considering a withdrawal from the sport. As written, the new proposed agreement would lik...

Well walking away from the table is always a valid negotiating tactic. I certainly hope Bernie will work with Mercedes to address their concerns, I do not want to see them leave. Ideally I'd like to see Mercedes and BMW back into the sport. The direction of F1 towards a more pay-per view model I wou...
