It's bad because Mercedes just won the championship and two German drivers might make the podium.

No German race!!

http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/12040 ... in-2015?98 apparently time's run out to do a deal. I get the feeling F1 is dying a sad, slow death. By season's end, we'll probably loose a team or two. Cota could be gone and Red Bull might walk.

I haven't seen a 'senna' logo on the Williams this year. Don't they usually put one on the nose? Have I just missed it?

Odd question as Caterham and Marussia use V6 turbo Hybrids now, so it's not a very fair comparison.
