3-time top 15 finisher in IndyCar, Sage Karam, to take over Lotus seat, replacing suspended race driver Rio Haryanto for the rest of the season.

"Davide isn't ready yet for F1", claims team director Eric Boullier, after being asked why he didn't put former GP2 champion and long time Lotus reserve driver, Davide Valsecchi, in the race seat.

Autosport contacted Valsecchi, but he refused to make any comment on the decision. "But I think it's time I start looking for other options in motorsport", claimed afterwards.

"Formula 1's US Grand Prix is set to move from the horribly mangled Road America (after 2 years of racing) to the recently revived San Jose street circuit (with two additional chicanes)."

:p

And then in 2018:

"Formula 1's US Grand Prix is set to move from the San Jose street circuit (a surprising failure) to Talladega, where F1 will race on the oval, in the hopes of luring American fans back to F1 after the two previous failures."

Stoffel Vandoorne wins last ever Monaco Grand Prix. RIP Monaco GP.

Drivers are not happy with the changes made to the Spa track, especially the change of Eau Rouge and Blanchimont into 2nd gear corners makes most drivers unhappy.
