Not looking forward to seeing the Halo in Melbourne... of all years I finally book the trip to Monza and its the year they bring in this garbage!

 

Looking forward to the new season! Bring on March!

 

How is it a "World" championship when there are only 10 teams and 6 of them build their cars in the UK? Starting to look like American baseball's "world" series...

 

Going ?

Buy the Ferrari corporate tickets, Trent does a great job

Careful Trumpy's eyes are everywhere....

What an effing joke...world series.

 

The baseball world series was named after the sponsor of the event the new york world's telegram. It was once called the "World's championship series" but over time it was shortend to world series.

Useless bit of info

 

I love useless facts, particularly when they correct a widely held misnomer like this

 

No plans again this year mate, it's still hectic around here these days with the new baby and Mum and Dad needing our help.

I was thinking making a trip down in 2019 because the last time I was there for the F1 was back in March 2014. You just don't realize how quick time goes by sometimes.

So it's a long time between drinks with my Mexican mates, so I think I should try and make the effort to come down next year.

 

Like most useless facts, it’s both useless and not a fact....

I guess most Americans still see the world the same in 2018 as they did in 1903...

 

Flat earth theory ................... poor Christopher Colombus

 

my quote reply didn't work to well in previous post

Ahhh flat earther's. My neighbour is one and have had many great conversations about it. Might need to ask google who is correct

Williams confirm Sirotkin for 2018


The Williams-Mercedes Formula One team have signed 22-year-old Sergey Sirotkin to drive alongside Lance Stroll for the 2018 season.

Claire Williams, Deputy Team Principal said, "After an extensive driver evaluation process, I am thrilled to have our 2018 line-up finalised, and I'm excited to see what next season brings. We have taken our time to evaluate all the available options, and I'm confident Lance and Sergey can deliver the best results for the team. The Williams philosophy has always been to promote and develop young talent and Sergey fits right into that ethos. Lance has had a record-breaking debut season, and with a year now under his belt, he will be ready to hit the ground running in 2018. We have a talented driver line-up for 2018, that we are confident will deliver some exciting results for the team."

Paddy Lowe, Chief Technical Officer said, "We have conducted a rigorous and exhaustive driver evaluation process. Ultimately, Sergey impressed the team with his driving pace and talent, technical feedback and work ethic, both at the factory and trackside in Abu Dhabi. I'm delighted he will be joining the team to partner Lance next season. Lance will be going into his second season with us, after notable achievements in his rookie year. We have an exciting line-up for 2018 which we believe will help us to maximise the potential of the FW41."

Sergey Sirotkin said, "To say I'm happy and proud to join such a famous team like Williams is an understatement. It took a huge amount of work to get where I am, and I'm really happy and thankful to everyone involved. The result of our combined efforts has helped me achieve my dream, and rest assured the team can rely on me to deliver my best."

 

Bad luck Kubica

 

Yeah

 

I sense another celebrity soon to be tared with the old "sexual harassment brush" !! It's been nearly three days since the last one so we are now overdue...

Posted in another thread. Might as well post here:

The new American owners have no pushed back european race start times by 70 mins.

Instead of 10pm now we must suffer until 11.10pm for race start.
