Fernando is smugger than you. Can you confirm you understand that message?
Maybe they should stop doing podium anthems so we aren't subjected to whatever growths lewis has on his head.
At this point it's become some sort of weapon against my sensibilities

He owns a machine tools company that sponsored NASCAR teams for many years before he formed a team of his own. It sucked until Tony Stewart bought half the team. Now it's pretty good.

He managed to make a really solid CNC machine right when they started to come around, and made billions.

On the morning of June 19, 2006, Haas was arrested by IRS agents for investigation of filing false tax returns, witness intimidation, and conspiracy.[18] Four others were indicted together with Haas, all of whom pleaded guilty.

Just before Haas's case was to go to trial, a plea agreement was reached with Haas, whereby he would plead guilty to felony conspiracy to commit tax evasion. He was sentenced to two years in prison and ordered to pay $75 million in restitution.

Haas was incarcerated beginning January 2008 and was released on probation May 2009 after serving 16 months of his two-year sentence.[19][20]

Having just now read Gene Haas' wikipedia page and finding it kind of ironic that a man who made his fortune starting up a machine shop and revolutionizing CNC machines is complaining about the need to fabricate and machine his own parts vs. buying them off the shelf.

Also, 100% Haas F1 will not exist in 5 years time.

It's the way he operates in NASCAR, though, and he's won titles doing it. He doesn't seem to understand that F1 is very different.

When they downtuned it... does that advantage come into play? Not to mention that Dan was a few laps away from knocking Seb off the podium. It wasn't just Mercedes flying today, it was Ferrari being bad.

Neither side has anywhere else to go at the moment. If Toro Rosso doesn't take up a Honda deal (and it's unlikely they will unless Honda drops the dump truck filled with McLarens money at Toro Rosso's HQ instead), Renault won't have a free 3rd engine production slot and Renault has already publicly declared that they don't want to expand to a 4th slot.
McLaren won't be able to go anywhere and short of Honda pulling out unilaterally (which would force McLaren onto one of last years engines) they'll be stuck together.

Red Bull should be knocking down Honda's door to get their engines at Toro Rosso. The worst case scenario is that Toro Rosso continues to kinda suck, whoop dee doo. The best case scenario is that somehow Honda turns it around and now Red Bull have established a relationship with a potential works partner.
