I think this is the right choice for McLaren, Jenson did more than enough this year to justify his drive. Hopefully K-Mag will have other chances in the future and he doesn't end up a perennial test driver. Jenson signed a 2 year deal which I assume is insurance for McLaren if Fernando jumps ship to Mercedes for 2016.by Adman1138 - F1
F1 obviously needs to attract younger fans to survive, it needs somebody to replace those who shuffle of the mortal coil at the other end. And while 15 year olds don't have a lot of money right now they will in the future. I'm hoping they can do this in a sensible way, make it interesting to younger fans rather than making it all the younger fans and forgetting the rest of us. I'dby Adman1138 - F1

Happy Rosberg held onto that one, he's been quicker than Lewis all weekend and needed that result to stop the rot. It also makes it a little less likely that 'double points' will effect the final result. Also pleased to see Massa get third after all his problems today. Piquet was just terrible on the podium.by Adman1138 - F1

Hi Guys, I've recently started playing GP3 again and I've stumbled across an issue with the replay function where what happens in the replay isn't what actually happened. The latest example was that I pulled off a wheel to wheel overtake into a chicane squeezing the AI out and taking the lead. I then ran the replay. At the start of the replay my car had much more speed than iby Adman1138 - Grand Prix 3

Not a huge fan of the McLaren livery for this race, looks a little too plain, like a lower formula design. Red numbers, or some red accents elsewhere, like the West days would make a world of difference. Really looking forward to this race, hoping it brings the expected chaos and retirementsby Adman1138 - F1
Not loving these changes. Double points in the final race is very gimmicky especially with abu dabi being the final round. Also will countback be worth double? If caterham take 11th at the last race and Marussia had an 11th elsewhere do Caterhan get the advantage? If they want it to award double points at the end then double the race length, or run back to back races. Not a fan of the drivby Adman1138 - F1

Sky have announced plans for pay as you go access to their sports channels Sky Sports PAYG I'm curious as to how many people here would be tempted by this, maybe not for every non-bbc race but for some of the better ones like Australia or Monaco.by Adman1138 - F1

I really hope Ferrari don't do this, even as a life long Ferrari fan I don't want Alonso to get the title this way, it should have been spotted during the race and dealt with then if an infraction had occured. I think it will technically be a clean pass on Vergne as the green flag in the marshalls box seems like enough evidence to prove that. Part of me does wonder if Vettel actuby Adman1138 - F1

Good race, shame that Perez ran out of laps to catch Lewis, that would have been an epic finish. A solid drive from Alonso as we've come to expect this year, and it worked out well for him championship wise. With McLaren looking quick and no doubt Red Bull being strong at some of the remaining races it should be a great run to the end of the season. Even as a Ferrari fan I think Vettelby Adman1138 - F1
On weekends when BBC is live I'll watch the build up and post race on BBC but I'll still watch the race itself on Sky as I like Brundles commentary with Crofty. The only real downside I've found with Sky's races is that they keep talking over team radio transmissions, especially Ted Kravitz. I find this strange as I don't remembed Kravitz having this problem on the BBby Adman1138 - F1
I think most of my pet hates have been covered, except one. Whenever celebrities appear during F1 coverage, its most annoying on a gridwalk when they find some random celebrity and ask them for an opinion, this is often followed by the line "well, this is my first time watching, I'm here as a guest of a team." If you don't know what you're talking about then I donby Adman1138 - F1
Looks like Sutil won't be getting that open Williams seat. He's going to be prosecuted for the nightclub incident and could be facing a year in jail, that's surely too much of a risk for Williams to take, the possibility of losing a driver midseason.
