So there's a rumour of Nasr to Force India and Mags staying at Renault.


Nasr has underperformed like hell this year. Feel kinda sorry for Force India if they have to settle for him.

Why is this a good thing for him? He's has his chance at the top level of the red bull pyramid from red bulls point of view And probably won't get another shot, so why keep him seat filling ahead of another young prospect.

Unless they think danny is going to vanish at the end of 2017?

I think that they wanted to hold and wait a bit on Gasly for the better alternative (Giovinazzi) to mature.

Also, it's not wrong that some stability with two somewhat experienced drivers will help them go through the 2017 preparation, with new regs and all.

When was the last time a venue dropped F1 for non-financial reasons, other than Bernie pulling the plug on Turkey? This is a big slap in the sport's face and the new owners really should take notice.

Benson actually doing his fucking job for once instead of penning fluff around Hamilton's mental state. Reveals that Zak Brown is first in line to replace Ron Dennis, and that McLaren will replace Mobil 1 with BP from next season (insert your favourite Deepwater Horizon\Honda joke here), with Exxon moving over to replace Total at Red Bull.

Tilke is designing a new circuit in Russia which actually doesn't look too bad.

Quote:
It said the track would be 4.8km long, with nine right-hand and eight left-hand turns. The difference between the lowest and highest points is 20m and the track will be between 12m and 15m wide.

The site will be near the Igora mountain ski resort, about 60km north of St Petersburg on the Karelian Isthmus.

It looks great, but shit for overtaking. They should take the Norisring and make it bigger for F1. Supersimple braking zones, wide like Brno and different track surfaces so that there are 2 good lines through each corner.

Track looks nice, but, i mean but if it will have 1km tarmac run off areas in every corner then fuck it. Its useless.
Put grass gravel right next to the kerb for fuck sake
