Shocker, both main news from F1 on this page are actually pretty sensible. :o

Pole position regains its meaning. Points awarded for all those scenarios (and for sprints) seem fair. Choice of tracks for sprint is actually cool. Imola is harder to pass (who knows with the new regulations), but it's still interesting - part of me likes trains of frustrated drivers ala Monaco every once in a while. :twisted:

edit: ok, make that the previous page :lol:

The wheel caps are for cooling. The 18" wheels cause more heat to be generated by the tyres meaning the brakes and inside the hubs need to be cooled more.

I agree though, i love the look of these cars but the wheel covers ruin them. But they seem necessary.


if they could at least look like the BBS turbofans

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.

I fully expect the Alfa to be another dud, and I wouldn't be surprised if Alfa are gone in a couple of years and a new name appears on the cars.

It reminded me of those Valvoline Walkers from CART days just without the white. My favourite livery so far.

The real Williams on-track (not the show car):

Is it just me or are these semi-raised noses looking a bit... odd?

The first photos I saw looked more blue (almost like an early 2000s Prost), but that looks more purple on track. Simtek vibes 8)

I preferred last years livery, plus dumb choice to remove the Senna S

well the Senna was more a Frank's thing. Now that he's also gone there it goes the tradition
