Which TV stations are showing the 500 in UK? Only BT Sport as far as I'm aware. BT Sport ESPN too which a bit difficult to access if you have Virgin tv from what I remember. However, there are no limits to how many devices can be signed in at the same time, so if your friends/family/whatever has BT...

It would be interesting to see how they'd handle it. The old management had no problem making blatant team orders. Doing something like leaving Kimi out while the rest of the field pits would be something similar to what the old management were known for - sacrificing the No. 2 Given that they've a...

Moto 3 accident was sort of Benny Hill worthy, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-LYAg_mBNg Someone dropped oil on the circuit and they all went clean off.

Not trying to stick up for either series here, but iirc Senna's chassis survived intact and was not the reason for his death, so the safety advancements in f1 are not relates to structural integrity of the car (although they are obviously heavily tested.

It would make for a better argument if it wasn't coming from such a self centred team as Red Bull who left FOCA so they could secure a better deal for themselves from the commercial rights holder. Part of FOCA's objective was to make F1 fairer for all the teams in F1 so the smaller teams could be m...

McLaren. I'm not even joking, I honestly can't find the number on the Macca side picture. Where is it? The Force India one is bad, but at least I can see it!

I still haven't gotten round to associating numbers with drivers. The helmet is still the distinction for me Maybe we will now because they have been so small up until this point.

Marvel's Agents of Shield is the best superhero show on television. Season 4 is incredibly strong all the way through. and the latest episode teases the possibility of

Makes no sense for McLaren to leave F1 if they have any designs on winning again. Honda are proof if any were needed that coming in cold after time out means you're guaranteed to struggle. Indycar and Formula E are basically spec series except for the engine and drivetrain, of which Mclaren have no ...

Alex Rins has a dislocation fracture of both bones in his arm, and will miss at least this race, and Jerez. Abraham is riding on a fractured ankle. This track surface is being cruel this weekend.

I will be amazed if he gets into the top 5. He'll be going into the race with no experience of Indycar at all. Barrichello had 4 races experience, plus the test, plus the advantage of a brand new car that everyone was still learning. It's not just about being fast, or about saving fuel, or about man...

Carlos Sainz will be key. He's out of position speed wise, and should make enough progress to be in and around the front guys when they stop first.

Like Pat's input so far. Not seen anything of Damon this season, have I missed him or is he not doing the races any more? Agree, they should just have 'Sky Sports Racing' or something. They show so many repeats, they might as well throw in some NASCAR, WRC, Fe, etc. They can't. BT has the rights to...

Of the drivers contracted to McLaren, only Button and Nyck de Vries qualify for a superlicense. They can't use Turvey, Matsushita, or Norris. Are you sure about de Vries, I put him only on 30 Super License points? He doubled up in two FRenault series in 2014 and won them both. Unless they don't cou...

Haven't watched BvS yet but it's clear to me that the only thing resembling the Frank Miller comic is indeed the fact Batman and Superman fight against each other, because it picks up from a completely different point than the comic.

This is starting to get weird, I think there's more than just fitness problems. Why?

I don't think so. I don't want to see anyone getting hurt, let alone dying for the sake of my entertainment.

This Rosenqvist guy is nuts though.. Now his team has scored 0 pts? Prost spinning Heidfeld caused chaos.

Picked up two new games recently: Pro Evolution Soccer 2017. For a while now the series has trailed behind FIFA as the game to have, but the latest edition is fantastic.

I've been playing No Man's Sky a fair amount recently. I'm enjoying it a lot. I love that it's all so pointless, and doesn't force you to do things. I've spent hours just mining rare minerals and carving out caves to stay in to escape radioactive atmospheres. It's glorious.

Quite good race! Great win for Viñales, one of many for sure. Marquez had some sort of problem in the latter part of the race because he was caught even by his slower team-mate Pedrosa.

Genuine question to gamers - how do you sleep at night? I tend to only play my PS4 when I have a lot of spare time and at the weekend.

To be fair to Captain Boomerang, he was played by Jai Courtney, and managed to not be the worst part of the film. Then again, a film that casts Jai Courtney tends to be awful.

Super Mario World doesn't play on my 3DS. Apparently I need a newer model of 3DS. Given it's a 26+ year old SNES game, I kinda feel like this is a dick move on Nintendo's part. It's because the older ones don't have SNES emulation in the virtual console for some reason. Not necessarily a dick move ...

So Stroll has binned it already? Williams has such an exciting driver lineup! Magnussen crashed and Bottas did too so far in this test. Stroll just happened to break something that Williams didn't have a spare of when he ran over the gravel. No biggie, and no real indication of his talent or lack of.

Option or Prime wrote:Fast moving advertising hoardings! What function do they have?

Clean the airflow to the rear wing. Lower rear wings means the air off the front suspension and sidepods is going to the rear wing planes, instead of the air off the engine cover, like it did with the previous, higher wings.

Car looks awesome. It reminds me of old Prost and Saubers, and the Essex Lotus of the 1980s.

I notice that they and Red Bull have a curious rear suspension. The push rods are angled way more towards the rear of the sidepods than the other teams. I wonder why that is like that.

Unless I'm very much mistaken (and I usually am), it's the DRS servo motor. The 2016 cars had them too, whatever they are.

Cyril said that this is not the car that will be in Barcelona so what was the point in showing this car.

If the nose tapered to a point it would be a great looking car. As is, merely good. Bargeboards look a bit clever, as do the front wing mounts. Turning vanes as the mounts is something Williams and Sauber both lack. Also lacking the strakes on the leading edge of the sidepods like Williams, and have...
