Bahrain; yes, already.

The article above says that Honda may be an option (since they are returning with McLaren next year), but also mentions Honda may have an exclusive deal with them.

 

I read somewhere Honda might not be going with McLaren.

 

I'm sure there is a rule that each engine manufacturer has to supply at least X amount of teams. Had something to do with Ferrari happy to supply Sauber but wasn't so happy about being forced to supply another team suddenly.

Tried googling it but I just get a whole lot of **** links about the new engines and how they work. Lost interest and internet is too slow to download the (probably wrong) .pdf of regulations.

Surely it has something to do with sporting regs? Same has how Minardi was without tires right before a season then bridgestone was forced to supply them (they didn't want to initially).

 

Wow. 1 relatively minor over-correction going into T9. Otherwise flawless steering input throughout. Gloriously smooth. A master of his craft.

 

This will be Button's 250th GP. 5th overall. Quite an achievement.

 

Awesome lap.

 

Mega.

 

Sigh. How I miss the good old days
