Re: Livery assumptions / expectations for 2016!
The Renault would look much better Yellow with black bits rather than Black with yellow bits.
Hope McLaren change theirs dramatically as its been dull as hell for years.
Williams and Ferrari are both great.
Less grey/silver/black and chrome this season please.

Re: Has the format of the 2016 F1 weekend been chosen?
I don't know what the answer is. Im not saying get rid of practice at all. Just 3 sessions is over the top for them to fine tune their cars. Not sure if longer qualifying is needed or dare i say it...a sprint race (no just no!!!)
And they should all have free testing throughout the entire season.

Will it change? There was talk of it earlier in the year.
I really don't see the need for 3 practice sessions for a start.

Re: Sleeping during races
Every so often for a while. But its nothing to do with the race, im doing that more often these days anyway.
Mid afternoon seems worse actually. If i watch the race later at night 'as live' its a bit better. the early races (Australia, Malaysia, China, Japan) are probably the easiest for me.

It would be a tall order for any new team in 2016, as the current teams cannot decide on the rules and regulations for 2016 and 2017 yet.

I would prefer:

3 sets of medium
3 sets of soft
3 sets of supersoft
3 sets of inters
3 sets of wets
all weekend. leave it up to teams and drivers what order etc to use. As unrealistic as that sounds.
