Fernando definitely deserves it. I think K-Mag would've gotten it for sure had his race not ended early.

Re: Vettels achievements vs Hamiltons achievements

Anyone who thinks Sky's coverage is not biased toward Hamilton need only watch the 2016 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix to be educated on the subject.

I'm glad he got a good finish and a well-deserved Driver of the Day.

Also glad Vettel beat Hamilton, but seeing Haas in the points would've been nice.

Re: Predictions after testing and before the first race

1. Mercedes
2. Ferrari
3. Red Bull
4. Haas
5. Force India
6. Renault
7. McLaren (think they'll be faster than Renault, but less reliable)
8. Toro Rosso
9. Williams
10. Sauber

I can see McLaren as high as 5th or as low as 9th. The same for STR and Williams.

McLaren really just need a few uneventful test days where nothing breaks, nothing misfires and they just quietly log laps. The frustrating part is it's to the point that when I see "McLaren" in a headline, I know something embarrassing is coming.

For someone technically savvier than I, does it really serve a purpose to try and camouflage parts of the car at an unveil? I mean, it's a picture. If competitors want to see more they can just click on a video. It just seems superfluous to me.
