Mclaren are going to use two engines for both Alonso and Button for the Belgian Grand Prix. Clearly the genius savant Ron Dennis has something up his sleeve and is getting the penalties out of the way so Alonso can fight for the title.

Reminder that FP1 and FP2 mean gently caress all due to fuel loads and tires. Red Bulls are probably still behind the Scuds, Williams still poo poo even on a fast circuit.

The rear right delaminated, the rear left popped when the right popped. Burning it against the road does that. The front right punctures halfway through the skid if you look closely. You can see the hole in the carcass when the car is on the flatbed.

Pic decides gently caress it, I'm just going to gently caress with Lotus, not like I am getting a drive anywhere else.

Autosport.com posted:

An aggrieved Pic, however, has sought legal redress, and the matter is currently in the hands of an arbitration court.

In trying to expedite matters, Pic yesterday managed to acquire an attachment order from a Belgian court that effectively prevents Lotus' cars and equipment from leaving the circuit come the conclusion of the grand prix.
