And wow, Kimi on top whilst Alonso only sixth?

It's a finnish betting site...

Gonna make a bold prediction here that Bottas will finish higher in the WDC standing than Kimi.

And if you think this is a bash at Kimi, I'll hint to what I really mean by predicting that Massa will finish ahead of Alonso.


Yeah I know, but still..

I think your prediction is better than their Kimi/Alonso comparison, but it is bold though. ;)

Apparently it's from Forza 5, though. Good graphics, mind - had me fooled


Pretty sure they wouldn't put an onboard camera in the middle of the Mercedes Badge either. :p

Vettel is definitely going to struggle in the 1st half of the season, but when the cooling issues and other niggly problems are fixed, Mercedes and co. should watch out.

Teams like Mercedes, Williams and Force India have a habit of getting good cars but development being too slow during the season. Meanwhile Red Bull and Ferrari tend to work on the car very well.

Ferrari is hoping their re-opened windtunnel will help because it's cost them dearly over the last few years.

F1 could be set for Baku in 2016

so what are the teams doing right now? Like the teams that seems to be in trouble. Are they allowed to test on their own track for example? Straight line speed testing allowed?

It must be terrible if you know you have some sort of problem, you can't really test it in real.

One other thing people have brushed over is that engine components are locked, frozen for homologation purposes at the end of March. I can't recall the date, but lets say, if Renault haven't got their shit sorted by March 31st, they're stuck with it unless they can prove their homologation is unsafe and dangerous and must be changed.


It was actually last Friday.

Just to add to the filming days - they're allowed two days of max 100km each and it must be done on Pirelli's promotional tyres.

Lotus has used both of theirs, Toro Rosso has definitely used one - perhaps both - and Red Bull stayed in Bahrain and had one filming day on Monday. McLaren has also done a filming day in-between tests, as did Ferrari I believe.

Ferrari hasn't been doing a good job the past two seasons tbh.

Red Bull had 2 filming days. One with the RB10 on Monday, one with the RB8 on Tuesday.

Surely ones with old cars don't count towards the total for 2014? :?

Today is the day when everyone can finally stop posting rubbish Photoshops of the Martini livery.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

Martini doesn't happen to launch a new product or put an existing product in the spotlight?

Would be hilarious if the colour would turn out to be like the left one, because they want to push sales of the Rosso product
