Stupid move for F1 considering their goal right now is to attract the younger market and it's fairly well known that the paid tv industry in aus has pretty much written off trying to capture the young audience after spending the last 10 years investing heavily to try (and fail) to get any meaningful...

Would suzie wolf replace? Bad situation but that could be interesting

I'll be surprised if redbull arent up near the front next year, they and renault will have been shovelling money into their program like crazy through 2014 and the break. Im not certain Williams will have the spending power to keep up with the other top teams as they all go about fixing their weakne...

I think Jenson will step up and compete, in my opinion hes a top 5 or better driver. I wont be surprised if Alonso out does him next year but I dont expect it to be a thrashing. Jenson comes across to me as an emotional driver, as in his mood and whats going on around him affect his performance heav...

hmm so the only real option would be to use the Caterham 2014 and rapidly upgrade it with the help of some of mclarens team sent over

veffy

I'm assuming it'd be too late to build a 2015 car for Caterham even with Mclarens tech and backing? and if so modifying the 2014 car for the honda engine seems like a reasonably big job

Interesting bit in that bbc article Button will be on a one-year deal at a salary reduced by at least half from the reputed £12m he was earning in 2014. That indicates that Buttons primary job in 2015 will be to get the new Honda-engine up and running, and when that task is completed, he will hand ...

i really cant see a reason not to take button over kmag outside of money at this point. even with the 'youth' and planning for the future argument they can't expect mag to stick around for more than 2-3 years if hes any good and thats about the same as jenson could likely hang around anyway. Kamui w...

as always, context is key.

In the full interview (video is on youtube) he is asked specifically what his dad would think of his present situation

as soon as they introduce a web app that lets you control which camera you're watching all ill do is watch f1 races

I support the sport going in whatever direction it must to improve safety, but if/when closed cockpits does happen it will be somewhat of a shame for me. There's something less 'intimate' (for lack of a better word) when you add cockpits. You can no longer see driver hand gestures and reactions to e...

mercedes would never 'sabotage' a product of theirs which still carries their brand

Kmag has won me over this season with his personality, but on race day he has been messy and inconsistent, button/alonso is a powerful point scoring team that will be hard for mclaren/honda to ignore

Then why watch it? I know I don't want to see it so I don't click this.

Not everything worth knowing is enjoyable to learn.

I'd keep button, though having a WDC as a 2nd driver seems strange, his points consistency is excellent as a support driver. Mag has really won me over with his personality this season but he is too green at this point. It is also hard to throw away all the marketing and publicity money and benefits...

poll and OP wording make it unclear whether we're voting to keep or replace the driver we select

JB's recent comments about Honda needing experienced drivers who understand Japanese ways. At best a little self serving, hardly going to bring harmony in the team. Come on JB you are a WC dont be a Ruebens hanging on desperately, accept progress and let the young ones have their turn. Alonso as th...

which i think is great by the way, less radio orders and info, and also the fun of trying to decode cryptic messages. win/win

veffy

teams are just going to develop codes they can use to communicate with seemingly innocent messages

The ballast for this years mercs would be an extra seat in the car containing mark webber who has a direct radio link to the drivers helmet where he explains whats going through sebastion vettels head at every corner

I wish we could see poll posters because im pretty sure the votes for chilton, maldonado and kimi's were the same guy, and he was laughing his donkey off the whole time

veffy

Im not sure if im a fan or a fanboy, luckily i'll never find out since my driver actually hasn't ever done wrong, and never will.

veffy

I thought about this too, while i think it highly unlikely, some very good luck in the remaining races and double merc DNF at abu dabi could mean a ricciardo WDC.

It would be an extremely unfair result, but part of me would find the sh*t storm that follows entertaining

veffy

Who voted against the top 3? Seriously? Were you blind today? Deaf maybe? The top three, in any order, were the top 3 drivers today. agreed, dan's overtakes are becoming my favourite part of sundays, and alonso's last 10 laps were something incredible, he was all over the place on spent tyres but s...

i put $30 on Ricciardo for a podium

veffy

I just like when the cars shoot around fast and sparks jump out and also the crashes

veffy

voted for alonso despite not being a huge fan of his, i dont dislike him he's just not a driver i think about much, yesterday was phenomenal by him though.

Button broke my heart (but good showing none the less) and I can't bring myself to be too unhappy with bottas and dan on the podium.

veffy

Ricciardo and good job to Bianchi, good to see Mclarens up in the mix again.

Looks like Kobayashi took some damage according to Caterham twitter, shame because it looked like he had a good drive in him at the beginning and this was probably the best chance they'll get for some points

veffy

He could drive for the low budget teams for free and they still couldnt afford him

It always struck me as weird in F1 that EVERYONE seems to have a longterm girlfriend, and these are mostly young guys in their 20's. There seems to be a much lower density of 'single' in the f1 driver population sample than in the general outside world. Perhaps its because of the move around lifesty...

I read somewhere this morning that Dan and Seb get along quite well and have been eating breakfast together on race weekends

veffy

I would think it was the FIA pushing them to try it

veffy

it would be cool if they seperated all the different microphones and you could isolate which channels IE track sounds or comentary etc to turn up and down like in a video game

veffy

Yeah i think at the least the undercut is deeper where it meets the base, it could be a lighting trick though. And the 'lip' of the intake seems much finer in the second photo. But agreed its hard to say anything conclusive

veffy

deeper undercut underneith also

Left: old Right: new

New side pods appear to be shallower and tighter with a slightly larger opening at the front?
