You know what would be funny? If Honda became a works team again because right now it looks like they are subsidizing McLaren.

I thought about this the other day and the idea of them just buying the whole lot and having McLaren sit as a brand above Acura has a certain amount of sense to it.

Motorsport dot com trying to create rookie vs veteran Fernando story already. Sorry but I don't think Waffles is #blessed with the gift of petulance like that other guy whose name I won't say. Besides, what would they argue over, 5th place in the WDC standings? Yea thats right, Im putting McHonda ahead of the Scud in 2017.

Honda going to wait till they know the engines are capable of winning before going works and putting McLaren back in the situation they wanted to avoid with Mercedes.

Apparently the second most searched term in Venezuela in the "how to" category is "how to make turbans?"

Watching Japan 2005 and Alonso went from 16th on the grid to 8th on the 1st lap.

Also watched San Marino 2005 and it reminded me of the loving awful qualifying system they tried back then.

I'm like 99% certain it was another stupid idea Bernie suggested to force through a less stupid idea he wanted and the teams called his bluff and it backfired.

Bernie is Cool And Good, I swear when he is gone we will all be dreaming of the days when he was around and running The Circus. I'd love to have faith in my fellow Americans (read: Liberty), but I don't.

He's literally the only one who, some how, can F1.

there's a very good chance that Formula 1 will turn into late-CART/Champ Car without Bernie, and Formula E takes over and is run somewhat sanely.
