Actually, you know that thing where since Lewis started losing Mercedes keeps praising his attitude and banging on about how it's not easy with all the criticism he receives, he has a hard life, overwhelming pressure for a mere mortal, he's a superstar, overcoming adversity and hate in a mature way, internet is full of bastards, blah blah blah. It's us they are referring to isn't it?

I don't have a problem with Lewis really so maybe Mercedes is talking about you specifically

Cockatiels are known as potatoes in the bird world. A picture of Massa would also have been acceptable.

Ok so in the complicated world of F1 the strategy group which voted for the proposals were the teams. The F1 Commission is the teams + Bernie and Todt. If it were not passed then Bernie and Todt voted it down and/or one of the teams switched sides.


I'm looking at you Horner.

Ok we can put down the pitchforks. The vote could not happen because Bernie did not show up.

URGENT NEWS. Does this mean John "jiggly tits" Booth just replaced Helmut "oval office" Marco at Toro Rosso? http://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/booth-joins-toro-rosso-as-director-of-racing-690442/

This. A sport's rules should be determined by the regulating body, not by it's competitors. And definitely not by the old billionaire goblin that owns the tv rights.

Since I took about an eight-year hiatus from watching Eff One, who can give me the scoop on the Russia circuit they're racing on now?

Looks like a couple of decent long straights in there, I guess Hermann Tilke must have retired.

It's there. As in, a circuit cutting around and through the Sochi Olympic Village.

Problem with Sochi is that no matter how good the racing is, they are still racing inside something that looks like a poorly converted Gulag.
