Bold Prediction A mysterious racer in a mask takes Nico's seat, going only by Rico Nosberg

If Alonso doesn't get it, this is the only other outcome I'll be happy with.

Can't believe it's 2016 and there's still no cure for being a McClaren guy.

Alas he wouldn't qualify for a superlicence under the new system.

He can win one in Formula E while Ocon keeps the seat warm for a year

Yeah, I'm surprised no one watches Channel 4. Also, I have a feeling Liberty is going to take a good look at Dorna and how they do the amazing MotoGP online streaming service and copy that.

Is there actually much incentive to copy that when they have a load of TV revenue that a move like that could sabotage though?

I'm not sure what the revenue is like in other countries, but I remember when Sky secured exclusive rights last year the figures mentioned were insane, way bigger than what they were getting in the BBC days.

Give me one god drat reason I should feel hopeful about anything right now. Even the loving French are probably going to elect a fascist.

"Even"?

The American ads that tell you to "ask your doctor about medication x today" are really weird to me.

"I, someone with no medical knowledge whatsoever, think you should prescribe me this drug because the television told me so"

Using NowTV for F1 is crazy, might as well get the SkySports discounted subscription

Using Now TV means you can get access to the Sky exclusive races for ~£80, and to all the race weekends for ~£120.

Last I checked, a Sky Sports contract required significantly more than that.
