Re: Vijay Mallya is targeting P4 for Force India in 2016!
If FI develop the chassis well this year, which they are already doing with more to come, there's no reason to believe they can't be 4th next year. There's no significant rule changes in 2016 and they've still got the best engine by far. I'm really looking forward to the Singapore spec and this year...

Re: Sleeping during races
It's always been a factor of when the race airs. Here in the states, you need your coffee/red bull ready regardless. For example ,try going to watch a movie late on a Friday after a long day of work. I fell asleep on Avengers.

Rosberg, younger and currently more consistent. He's not someone I'd pick up as champion material, but as a solid point scorer. I think more so than a finnicky Raikkonen who needs a perfect set-up to be fully optimized. ( Get it, Finn-icky?

Alonso's playing the long game. He doesn't care if he's 'within' some certain margin of Mercedes or not - he cares if he's able to challenge for the championship. Neither the McLaren or the Ferrari are going to be able to do that this year, so it wouldn't be any better in the red car. If either Fer...

Re: Rosberg's ability (or lack of) on Race Day
Two things contributed to Rosberg losing out on race day. I think either he went for a stronger qualifying set-up to get the edge position wise or Hamilton went for a race day set-up later in the season. I suspect it's the latter. Also as people have mentioned, Rosberg in an onn track battle doesn't...
