Well, Vandoorne will be used to having a GP2 engine.

 

[Icefire1424]

How close to JB should we expect Vandoorne to be?

If him stepping up to F1 is anything like me transitioning from Formula B to Formula A in Project C.A.R.S, he'll immediately lose control upon hitting the gas at the start, careen into the inside wall, and take out at least six other drivers with him.

But the counter argument is that he won't, considering that unlike me, he's a skilled driver.

 

[Tempy]

Depends on whose car breaks down first.

Hmm... about a second slower than Vettel. So faster than Raikkonen then.

 

[Psychotext]

Talking of which... seems Raikkonen is getting to Vettel.

Vettel added: "Put it this way: You sell ice cream, and it's vanilla and everybody that comes to your shop is asking for chocolate ice cream.

"And the next day everyone comes expecting you to sell chocolate ice cream but you sell vanilla again."

Maybe he has those Danganronpa 2 hamsters.

This sounds like spoilers.

Is this the birth of a "sad Alonso" meme?

 

[Line_HTX]

I hope not, because I still like the sleeping on the chair at the Brazilian GP.

Lol came to post it. That was pure gold.

The sad part is, for a moment I thought it was real.

“I’m glad we’ve finally got together and sorted all this out #TimeForChange,” Christian Horner tweeted on his account before it was removed by FOM for having the word F1 in the username.

That part killed it. I'm dying here lol lol lol

It hits so close to home that it really doesn't even feel funny at all.. in fact, I'm crying.
Damn you, Bernie.

FP1 is live on Channel 4.

 

[Graphics Horse]

That old quote about Sky though... had forgotten that one.

 

[kharma45]

FP1 is live on Channel 4.

I expected it on E4 or More4 rather than the main chsnnel.

 

[Lach]

FP1 is live on Channel 4.

I think what you meant to say is: "Channel 4 is showing 90 minutes of ads with some F1 in between"

 

[Psychotext]

Quite. Not a lot happening either.

 

[nature boy]

This is going to be a depressing season, me thinks.

 

[Psychotext]

"Program will continue shortly".

Nah it's cool C4, I've only missed 5 out of the final 30 mins of practice so far.

 

[hadareud]

It's almost as if they have to pay for the rights.

Commercials are evil. Pay TV is evil. The license fee is evil.

Why don't we get everything for free? We deserve it! Oh and in 4k, 120fps and with much much higher production values.

 

[Psychotext]

I've got no problem with any of those things. What I do have a problem with is not showing any commercials at all (like, literally was sat watching a C4 logo).

 

[hadareud]

Hehe, sorry, was just a general rant, not directed at you.

 

[Psychotext]

I also hate it when every ad break has the same adverts. US TV seems notorious for that.

Edit - Ok, what the fuck. Two sets of breaks in 10 mins? That's too much.

 

[Goldrusher]

Vettel's Bahrain helmet:

 

[Psychotext]

Liking those splashes.

 

[Zeknurn]

Todays episode in FOM are cunts is called "Lewis Hamilton Ordered To Stop Taking Snapchats At F1 Races"

I expected it on E4 or More4 rather than the main chsnnel.

It's not like they were showing anything worthwhile on Channel 4 before FP1. It was Storage Wars or some dumb reality show.

I think what you meant to say is: "Channel 4 is showing 90 minutes of ads with some F1 in between"

I didn't think the ad breaks were that bad, but then I have endured RTL's broadcast and anything is better than theirs.

 

[Juicy Bob]

It is only practice too. They could've easily not bothered with practice at all to save them money.

 

[Megasoum]

April 1st?

Yep.

It's really sad when we are not able to tell if it's a joke article or not..

 

[brotkasten]

Vettel's Bahrain helmet:

Doesn't result that in a fine, because drivers are not allowed to change the helmet design mid-season anymore?

 

[navanman]

Mercedes in a league of its own again.

 

[Zeknurn]

They can change things as long as the general design is the same.
