Alonso to IRL confirmed.
At this point I cant even see McLaren blackmail him into staying


If the story about them talking to Kimi is true, I suspect he'll be spotted at the Andretti factory in the next break...

I doubt Kimi is that desperate to stay in F1.

Alonso may do a James Hunt and quit mid season. I can't see him going on.

I would feel safe to put money on Red Bull Honda winning a title before McLaren wins a race

Haas will be in trouble for that. It's still an unsafe release even if he didn't leave the pit with a loose wheel.

In a pathetic sort of way, not the sympathetic way.

"Our chassis is one of the best on the grid because we've been able to focus development on that after dealing with so many engine problems."

About the only thing worth watching today was on the Channel 4 coverage, Louise Goodman was doing a piece to camera about Toro Rosso so C4 cut away from the world feed and the first thing we saw was Ted Kravitz looking confused and running away from the camera :lol:

I think I'm more interested in how some doomed-to-fail social media startup managed to pony up the dough for title sponsorship of a grand prix than the actual race weekend lol

Gearbox change for LeClerc, so 5 place grid penalty. A shame because he could qualify in the top 10 again.

Hartley has no new spec front wings left as he's damaged them all on the kerbs.
