In a move surprising literally no one, Aston Martin confirm they are working with Red Bull to try to get the 2021 regs changed in order to un-punish Red Bull for being lovely to their engine suppliers.

It looks like Star Wars or something. I don't know what it is... I'm generally OK with it, I just don't like the "M".

What part of the 2021 regulations punishes Red Bull?

They have no engine supplier. Illien said he'd only build an engine if he got a whack of cash from a manufacturer and Aston Martin is on the bring of insolvency.

I'm being snide about Red Bull angling to change the formula away from hybrids because they've demonstrated to the current set of manufacturers that they are a lovely team to work with and the only way they don't get stuck being a second tier customer team is getting the engine formula changed

Americans have magical new ways of saying a bunch of car manufacturers. With some, like Hyundai, they're probably more correct. With a bunch of other ones, they're probably not.

The best part for you guys is that I’m going to get even more excited as McLaren announce new sponsors, a proper livery, show promising pace in testing, all before inevitably sucking in Australia.

It might be my americanism speaking but I can see why they did the new logo if only for the merchandise. I'd actually buy like, one of those track map hoodie mockups they have pictured there (especially an Abu Dhabi track map hoodie as a gag gift for F1 Thread Secret Santa)

I genuinely thought GP3 had already been renamed F3, much like GP2/F2, I didnt realize they were seperate things.

Not sure that joke was aimed at Americans, considering the insane way the Brits butcher that pronunciation.

To be fair to us it’s a legacy spelling, the modern romanization schemes would render it as hyondae or something and we’d have a better idea how to say it

robert kubica is overrated and his single win was gifted to him because TRUE and HONEST driver lewis hamilton had a brain fart and took himself out. he's maldonado at best, kovalainen at worst. BMW were right to stop focus on 2008 because they never had a realistic chance at the WDC
