The Russian Gay thing really upsets me as I am gay myself.

I know other countries have laws making it illegal etc, but in Russia they hunt them and out them and I dont think F1 should support things like this.

regarding the russian thing i think if the grand prix is effectively made, it eventually will stop as it happened with South Africa GP and the apartheid in the 80s. F1 will always try to make its bussiness but when the circunstances makes the sport being criticized they´ll back off.

As for the season start its clear that Mercedes is ahead but its also clear that they´re not bulletproof (atleast not so bulletproof as Williams!). Williams and Ferrari seem to be just behind Merc but altough i rate high Massa and #BO77AS i cant stop thinking what would the Williams do if they had an Alonso or a Kimi inside...

As for RedBull now i dont think they have another Mp4/18, once they solve their issues they will be quick, but they will suffer with reliability, mostly cooling issues. Button said the RB10 was very very fast in the corners but lacked in straight speed so i wouldnt rule them out, mostly in slow circuits. I see them struggling in Spa and Monza.

Its amazing to think how different would be some championships if they had more classic circuits with fast curves on. I remember Force India in 2009 that had outstanding results in Spa and Monza. If 2009 had Buenos Aires, Zandvoort or the old Hockenheim or some others like that they would have achieved more stunning results

Every championship needs more of those classic circuits. End of discussion ;)

It is finally here and it's awesome!


I think it could use another Martini stripe on the sidepod to make it look less plain, but nevertheless I absolutely totally ADORE it ;)

Not entirely keen on the number style on the sidepods, but really liking the look of that car.

Done with class and beauty. Really, really like the full FW36 livery.

Not quite on par with the MPR, but damn sweet nonetheless.

I expect big things from the boys and gals from Grove this year.

Wait is the the actual "official" one? ;)

Not, a bad effort.. I'm guessing they actually let some-one from a Martini design as to not feck it up.

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

That picture could almost be straight from the 70s. They should bring back those garlands for the podium finishers.

I was a Williams fan before they were cool man......

In a funny way, this martini livery is reminding me of 2000, when Williams basically farmed out the livery and marketing to BMW and the other sponsors bought into and blended into the overall brand.

And bhoy... This brand is looking good.

And that makes you better fan/person than the rest?

Williams used to be one of my favourites till they made BMW and all proper drivers go away (I can't stand "characters" like Nico and Bruno)..

Kimi, so, Massa Fernando Sebastian is faster than you. Can you confirm you understood that message?

I didn't say that at all, nor imply it. You've completely misinterpreted the gist and context of what I meant. But on a forum.. I guess that's easy to do.

It was a failed relationship, both sides played their part. BMW wanted more say and perhaps and bugger slice of the pie, Williams didn't want to relinquish it. Retrospectively looking back and seeing where BMW (when they decided they didn't want to be in F1 anymore) left Sauber for example, you could argue that Williams made the correct decision overall.

The fear is unlike South Africa, Russia/EU/America are saber rattling and are on a collision course for either another Cold War or WW3. Bernie should bring back San Marino!! but it's all about the money.

This is a place for F1 discussion. I don't think we need to discuss war (N)

San Marino (Y) or Estoril ;)

Bernie: I give you Aserbaidschan instead

The Real Story of the Race was that the Renault's fell apart and the Ferrari's didn't.
Rosberg headed for the sliproad and retired, probably because of Nicotin starvation they have still not given him a helmet with a little hole in it.
