aequalis posted:It relates specifically to pre-season testing (and somewhat to Free Practice sessions), in that the times and race pace potential set by each team/driver is highly irrelevent and useless, if not tantalizing. Very much like a briefcase made entirely of bacon (or is it a normal briefcase just filled with bacon? This was never made clear to me) I still have video of this on a hard drive for some reason. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JzyBcmjnbYo

Wirth1000 posted:Coulthard thinks that the superlicense system just introduced needs to be more flexible. Specifically, it should cater to up and coming "special" talent. I wonder if he's check himself but David Coulthard would not have qualified to enter F1 under the new system, having 37 points for a 2nd in British F3 and a 3rd in International F3000 which I'm generously calling the same as GP2.

Hadn't seen this mentioned anywhere here yet:quote:McLaren will change the colour of their livery in 2015 as new engine supplier Honda does not want to continue with silver because it is a colour that is immediately associated with rivals Mercedes. Please be orange all over  Nabbed from this page, which cites this page as its source. Other gems: quote:Lotus driver Pastor Maldonado says he is not bothered by the criticism he gets from some F1 fans and prefers to focus on those who do support him. All 2 of them. quote:World champion Lewis Hamilton, who says he has recorded about 30 music tracks already and has even built a recording studio in his home, has become close pals with Canadian rapper Drake and could team up with the 28-year-old in the future. baaahahahahahahahahaha quote:Former Williams driver Jacques Villeneuve says the team's form last season was better than he expected.  Also, car launch dates I've picked up on so far, if there's any missing let me know and I'll add them to the list: Force India - 21st Jan Mclaren - 29th Jan Ferrari - 30th Jan

I think they will go for an intricate design to draw the eye away from the lack of sponsor logo's.

Given how much faster the throwback martini livery made the williams I think that mclaren will obviously be going for something in line with the classic 80s styling.

If Ferrari's allowed to do that logo on their airbox, they should, but I'd hate it. I don't like retro liveries except as a special thing.

I'm not getting excited for the "new" McLaren livery, since Mercedes' big newsworthy change was to move from silver to 'kromo'. Which is chrome. Also known as silver. Formula E sure does seem to have a lot of contact. I honestly think they should change its name to Formula Maldonado. Has a certain ring to it, doesn't it?

I don't know if that's real or made up, but I don't care, they should use those colours. One of their new sponsors has a blue and white logo, right? They can work with that. As much as I'd like to see some history incorporated, the black and orange Halloween-Mobile livery isn't my favourite.
