Pre-season testing begins next month.
Looks like Maldonado is finally getting the boot. Magnussen to replace him.

I think they also need a hood that can be pulled over the cockpit if it rains or gets a bit chilly.

For all its faults - it's BACK! :bow:
Bit of a washout for FP1 and FP2.
Should be dry tomorrow for FP3 and qualy.
6 am for qualy if anyone's interested.
Highlights on Channel 4. :haha:
BBC. :haha:
They should have got Ortis presenting.
And John Snow.
Not that one.
Q2 drawing to a close.
Perez, Hulkenber, Bottas, Alonso, Button, Palmer and Magnussen drop out.
This new qualifying is a bit weird.
I have no idea what in the blue hell just happened.
The session result decided with 3 minutes to spare. Ludicrous.
Toto says the new qualifying is rubbish. :haha:
:bow:
The thing about F1 is that it seems, unlike in football where the ideas to change something takes decades to come to fruition, any idea, seems to be used in the forthcoming season.
What a clusterfuck.
The spastic cunts in charge of F1 need to have their kneecaps blow off.

Lucky boy
It might run better than last year's.
Also, the Qualifying debacle is to be dropped already. :haha:
And replaced with what? Paraplegic dwarfs having hen's eggs stuffed up their anuses while the clock counts down?Quote:

Sky Sports said the whole of the British Grand Prix would be broadcast on a new "free-to-air" channel.
The five-year deal will also see race highlights shown on the free channel.
They've kept the qualifying format as it is for this weekend.
:haha:
Fernando Alonso has broken ribs after his crash. GP2 champion Stoffel Vandoorne will race this weekend
These guys get so greedy for money they turn into total fucking morons in every other respect. They've turned it into a pub sport but they can't organise the piss up.Quote:

They've stuck two fingers up at the drivers and engineers with these recent decisions. Totally ignored the recent statement from the driver's about the direction of F1.Quote:

Can't believe they're trying the failed qualifying system again. Sums up the FIA.
It is daft. I can't wait for those all important last four minutes.
It's nearly time...Q2 coming to an end.
Hamilton fucked up.
I still can't get my head around it.
All done with three minutes to spare again. :haha:
What an astonishing outcome.
Formation lap under way.
Vettel's engine fails on the formation lap :haha:
Vettel's engine. :rose:
Ferrari have gone back to relying on a dog engine.
Hamilton gets hit!
Sainz with a puncture. :lol:
Some side entertainment from Haas and McLaren - otherwise about as interesting as Alan Shearer.
2015-style qualifying will return for the next race.
It's a miracle!
Q1 for Chinese GP:
Hamilton is out! Additionally with his pelanty he will start dead last. :doh:
Magnusson, Gutierrez, Palmer, Haryanto also drop out.
Hulkenberg's front left. :wave:
