Are you kidding me.
What the hell. The fans at Monza are some of the best in the world. Those podium celebrations...
Fml not the greatest thing to come out on the same day as the sport is being hammered over quali.
Though it's probably the best time to announce as most won't notice.

Looks like I'm going to Monza this year then. I've been before, but the friend I'm going with now hasn't, and it would be a shame for him to miss out on Monza.

Awful idea. As long as the cars struggle to overtake each other, we shouldn't be messing with the grids.
Making the cars 2-3s faster will definitely not help overtaking.
But most importantly, Pirelli needs to develop Michelin/Bridgestone-like durable tyres. This formula would have worked had we had tyres that could allow for 2-3 hot laps.

Toro Rosso and the others had a combo advantage of qualy maps / tyres / track evo, McLaren will beat these teams on an equal footing in the race tomorrow.

Imola is an epic track. No Monza though? No....just no....doubt this will stand.

But the Honda engine still sounds like shit.

That qualifying were weird. And as expected the Q3 was lame.
And I forgot to fill in my prediction for the race :/
Lets see if Mclaren could finish the race and score a few points. And Toro Rosso did quite well, it will be fun see them beating Red Bull.

That's it, feels like the straw that broke the camel's back. I'll follow the thread to see if it gets exciting, but I can't be arsed even watching highlights for this season. At least the football season has been good this time so I'll have something to watch on weekends.
Old format of qualifying is returning. Some common sense prevails.

They should partially refund Saturday tickets to the Australians for enduring this farce.
Well, that was one epic fail.
I'd be happy for my money back!
I'm shocked they moved so quickly. It feels like they always have to have new rules fail several times before reverting.
I'm OK with this. Elimination maybe had some OK theory with it, but in practice it was never going to work. The problems are elsewhere. Quali format is fine.
amazing
I dunno, I think to correctly model modern F1 you probably want to have a slightly different ruleset for every single race; they're just ahead of the curve.
Programming a stopwatch is literally the second thing they teach you after "Hello World," they're fine. Annoyed maybe, but programming wise it should have been little effort for experienced programmers.

Alright new season boys, hopefully it's exciting (and Hamilton doesn't coast to the championship)
Edit: 30 minutes until the start... Ugh 1am EST

Good morning, fellas!
I'm still up, just to see the race.
Can't wait to fall asleep during the race, when Hamilton just pulls away.

I dont think that will hold. You cant take Monza off the F1 calender, that likes putting a dagger through the sport's chest. Bernie can go fuck himself with these games and power moves though, thats for sure.
Apparently they've did a last minute change to the radio limit. Weird.
What's going on with these last minute rule changes?
On one hand I'm happy they're reverting back to the old quali format as it was a mess yesterday. But part of me feels that they should give it more time. Maybe two more times before making a decision. What happend yesterday just feels like more a problem with continuing Merc domination and "failed" tire management....

I hope it's Webbah.
double retire
Imagine Webber interviewing 3rd place Vettel.
Edit. I see that Sky's production style is still shit.
This is becoming satire.
