Alonso's going sportscar racing.

He can take all those zeroes from Ferrari to Audi. They like when there's a string of O's all lined up.

I think he's still too focused on a third title to leave F1, but who knows.

Well BBC say that Button's had talks with Porsche about WEC.

Alonso is still planning to start his cycling team. It would not be too crazy if he goes a year to sportscars to get more time to manage the cycling team...

That would be a good addition but we will have to wait and see.

There where also rumors of him buying into Lotus.
Maybe he's realizing age is catching up with him and winning that 3th title is basicly out of reach. Both Ferrari and McLaren don't seem to be able to win it within the near future.

so Alonso to McLaren is so obvious but so obvious that it won't happen?

I can see the connection there. Webber is represented by Briatore. But Dominicale is also rumoured to take over Ullrich's spot at Audi, so maybe that is a possibility?

This is what the Mexico City track is gonna be like next year compared to the old track

Basically every corner gets reprofiled...

If turns 2, 3 and 12 are as open as that map suggests, then those could be some rather fast and interestin corners.

For a moment I thought that was a new layout for Monza.

ChiliFan · PostPosted: Sat Oct 18, 2014 1:34 pm

Yet another "design" where all the corners are drawn with a ruler.

kals · PostPosted: Sat Oct 18, 2014 1:41 pm

That is the same design that has been posted twice already in the past year.

2 and 3 are under acceleration, and 12 seems to be just a remake of Silverstone or Hockenheim T1. Either way, a fast corner is meaningless when there's nothing at stake, and I expect a tarmac sea on the outside so :yawn:

This will still be good, this track provides racing and the atmosphere could be crazy. I remember some CART races there where the crowd was doing a huge wave every lap as Domniguez passed by the front stretch.

LucasWheldon · PostPosted: Sat Oct 18, 2014 4:14 pm

turn 13 should not exist

Tobias · PostPosted: Sun Oct 19, 2014 7:19 am

I am not too disappointed. The Hermanos characteristics are still there to see. could have been much worse.

How are they? Every single sweeping corner has been taken out and replaced with standard FIA stop/point/squirt corners.

I'll take another evening time race tbh, my favourite time to watch F1. (maybe 2 more if Russia goes Night...)

Still, DRS on that hugely long straight would be a joke
