Watching testing repeat. It has begun. Ted , a man in jorts and sandals, is openly mocking Lewis' fake glasses.

They seem to be slightly shitter than the Manor but it's hard to call. The bottom end of the FP timing scores seem to be worryingly accurate.

Did we mention that force India can't afford carbon fibre and have 3D printed parts yet?

ukle posted:That makes little sense as carbon fibre is about half the price of the 3D printing material. Probably a case of they were that lacking in man power they just didn't have the time needed to build the missing carbon fibre parts, while 3D printing it is a lot quicker. Wild theory: They are that broke there is no one at the factory but one bloke and his 3D printing machine.

Fair few teams had serious problems with handling on turn 14 with either wild under or over steer. Only ones I didn't see have a problem were Ferrari/Mercedes.

People Lewis has pissed off in the last week: Sky, The Telegraph, SirJackie Stewart, The New Zealand Police, everyone at the FIA Thursday press conference, Sky City Casino (Auckland), everyone at the Mercedes press conference last Friday including Toto Wolff, Mercedes sponsorship department, Hugo Boss, Blackberry, The Daily Mail, The Mirror, The Guardian, The Daily Express, and Charlie Whiting. The Daily Mail in particular is out for blood after the taking a selfie while riding a motorbike thing.

It would be a lot simpler for the "average viewer" if Sky just admitted it was musical chairs.

New Quali isn't poo poo, red bull is poo poo for not getting the car out on time to do a lap.

It's almost like the shitter teams not being able to do a good lap and being eliminated gives the people higher up the list time to get the cars ready.

So Seb has taken over from Jenson/Alonso in the role of driver with the most forced enthusiasm for a car that can't win this year then.

Yeh cos if a team wins more than two years in a row the sport will immediately die. Or Worse, people may be forced to watch amazing battles in the midfield and pay attention to more than two teams.
