You can pretty much guarantee that they will be more prepared than HRT, Caterham and Virgin. Any new team (from F2 etc and not a manufacture) will most likely be set up like Haas as a quasi B team, with heavy strategic partnerships with a current manufacture (Andretti seems to be an exception) But ... |

I did a quick bit of googling. The new teams in 2012 reportedly paid entry fees of around $500,000US. So what the teams are saying the sports value has increased 1200% in the last 10 years? Yeah I mean the Netflix series has bought lots more eyes onto the sport, but, seriously? Here's an article tha... |

And Andretti will get the $600 million and they'll still come up with some excuse |

They would have to buy it back from Gerry Forsythe first.

Amusing to see the whinging over GM coming in as a branding exercise, and then this happens, presumably without complaint. |

Is the incredibly low amount of pre season testing days still because of cost saving reasons? Would be a bit ironic as they will have to fly around the world for about 50 times this season. |

It seems like they're cracking down on this sort of thing (commentators mentioned this when lots of F2 and F3 teams got penalties for grid procedure infringements in Bahrain). As long as the teams have been warned in advance that they're cracking down, I don't have a problem with it - I mean, what'... |

Think I'm more excited to see the F2/F3 on this track than F1 which is very likely to be another Red Bull 1-2 if not for any reliability woes. As usual, the storyline going in will be who can get that P3 spot. |

And you get to live on Japan! I feel like I live a pretty charmed life in Melbourne even with the challenges, but that's got me beat. I lived there for 2 years as a kid, have always wanted to go back. |

The hell? Did you have an adjustable rate? Unsure how it works down under, but I assumed all banks were more or less the same. Fixed, adjustable, etc. We chose a variable rate for a long time as when interest rates were low it was the far better deal and stayed that way for years. In the past year ... |

It is so simple! You change the car, you go to the back. Free tyre changes are the worst. Got damage? Work on the car for as long you need, but you start from the back. Red flag should have parc ferme rules, with the exception of cooling the car, umbrella if it rains and support of the driver. |

My hope for the 2008 championship scandal: the court awards Massa damages the FIA can't afford to pay, FIA announces insolvency and dies, literally anyone else comes in as rule makers for F1. |
