Ferrari looks awful - come on HP don't destroy the look of the Ferrari


by PeteBlow m

Stake still throwing money around in sponsorship.
They won’t be allowed on the cars at Silverstone

Can't wait for the Audi takeover next year - Stake is a disgrace. No team in F1 these days should be going around with an owner sponsor and happy to run around the back of the grid while raking in the
money. No one will be happier than me to see the back of them.

You know when a car had had a replacement door that’s a completely different colour?
It looks like Ralf Schumacher era Williams have donated them a body part


none of them are very endearing... the Haus looks good.

doesn't look like youtube is not allowing embedding of F1 content... click here for the onboard of Lulu's fastest lap... which was only good enough for 12th place:
Lulu's fastest Lap-onboard

the cars like a PIG in lulu's hands.

Charles seems to handle the understeer better than Lulu can. it's down to driver preference as Lulu has a more old school style that relies heavily on positive rotation and a 'pointy' frontend... like most the former greats.


Lulu?
Grow up


Make me...

Let the WHINING begin!



You can see Carlos was leaving a lot left on the table... and they are already below last years Pole.




Just going to throw this out here - Toyota to announce its return to F1 this year for 2028 with Haas. There will just be too much excitement with the new regulations and Ford, Cadillac and Audi entering next year combined with Aston Martin's new efforts with Honda next year. They will not want to mess out.


I am just going to throw this out there... 2025 is a place holder year.
new regs and possible engine revisions will wreak havoc in 2026.


Ten days to go...

here comes the pain!


I haven't been following the offseason at all, so the betting odds for the 2025 Championship surprised me

not sure if you'll be able to access the Australian odds but Lando as clear favourite was a surprise. Also quite fun seeing what the market thinks about the #2 drivers. Ferrari guys relatively close, Piastri a respectable distance behind Lando but the RB and Merc #2 drivers being treated with disdain!

Lando being a clear favourite for the title was the surprise


not for anyone that watched intently last year... MAC is firing on all cylinders right now, and since this seasons cars are pretty much a roll over of last years cars, we should see the same dominance... NEXT YEARS regulations is going to cause a whole new ball game.
the odds are probably pricing in the idea that the team will coalesce around the perceived #1, which has always been Norris. That being said, I DO believe that the Australian is going to have something to say about that.
