Maybe Honda just needed a change of environment. Like taking a troubled street youth from the gang capitol of Britain, Woking, and giving him a fresh start somewhere civilized like Italy.

No. No, no, no. The original was the best, and the 2nd one was the next best one, because it had the dark Biff future in it. Also hoverboards. The cowboy one was the worst one. But still pretty good.

I like all of the recent Simpsons references and gifs. This should happen more often in the worst of threads.

Honda got their poo poo together like a year ago but they were so done with McLaren's public humiliation routine that they reached out to Red Bull, who'd had their own issues with Renault, equally publicly. Around the time of pre-season testing last year, backroom deals were done and Honda and Red Bull management reached a loose agreement that Honda would continue to develop their engine, but not provide those improvements to McLaren. This way they could sour the relationship even further and McLaren would be unable to de-escalate from the rhetoric they'd been using.

Cue Red Bull 'reluctantly' offering Toro Rosso as a sacrificial lamb, knowing full-well that Honda had made leaps and bounds in the development of their engine. Red Bull got to fire a warning shot over the boughs of Renault and get a test bed for an engine that showed promise and was a viable parachute if Toro Rosso had a strong 2018 campaign that would also allow them to return to works team status.

Aren't they currently testing digital displays which attach to the left and the right of the camera on top of the roll hoop? Similar to what many racing series have for push to pass or what WEC has.

I hope they bring them in 2019, and I hope the resolution is high enough for this:

I can't believe Hack Clown is about to throw away Ron Dennis' masterplan, just when it was going to deliver an Honda engine with power and reliability like the world has never seen. Hmm actually I can.

He and Alonso, the mentally sick driver who is probably still whining out of jealousy for Palmer's skill and youth, are really made for each other.

They are doing irreparable damage to the best team in F1 history. This is a tragedy.

They are going to look so dumb next year when Kyvat becomes WDC. Ron Dennis must be spinning in his grave.
