Raikkonen and Hülkenberg could see me becoming a Ferrari fan. Would be awesome. Button and Alonso at McLaren would be fairly interesting too.
Not sure what Chilton has done to deserve a Force India drive.

She made a point with he bbc f1 forum to say that the driver decision is as financially critical as any of the other factors when asked about their financial status.

Interesting analysis of the Red Bull pit strategies today: http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2013/10/13/2013-japanese-grand-prix-tyre-strategies-and-pit-stops-2/

Nice read.
Yeah, the Webber strategy was worth trying because it was the only way to put Webber ahead of Grosjean and to fight against Vettel for the victory.

It's the best sounding one yet. Only Ferrari left to hear if this Honda sound is legit.
You were blinded by the Webber. Plus, you're Fernando.
Next year, WEC my man!

...and it's looking more like you'll be at McLaren.

No idea why I am hyped for that.
Fuck, that is depressing.
Sounds like my hoover.
So it actually sounds like the vast majority of Hondas on the road today. Makes sense then.

Meh. What does Whitmarsh know really? That muppet backed Button over Lewis...and look where it's landed them. I think that alone throws any analysis of driver talent he makes into question. Dude had his head so far up Button's ass, he could wear him as a suit. PEACE.
Saw Rush yesterday. Loved it....incredible attention to detail. Incredible truthfulness to what actually happened.
Two things I was surprised they didn't include:
- The spectators at Brands Hatch rioting over Hunt not being allowed to restart and forcing the Stewarts to change their mind. That would have been another show of Hunts popularity.
- The anectote of Lauda waking up Hunt on the morning of the Japanese Grand Prix, happily announcing that he's going to be world champion today! Though maybe it wouldn't have fit the narrative..
The only negative point it gets is the

The only negative point it gets is the
CG Fire on Laudas car. Though watching the original footage it does kinda look surreal...the Fire on the otherwise good looking car.
Oh dear

What a talent lost
Recently won the Le mans 24 hour race and was leading the Porshe Super cup
He also recently played his dad in Rush

Hoping this is bullshit...
Teams will spend a lot of money of special proxy tweet bombing equipment. They could ask Microsoft, they have some experience.
Fans, whether watching live or at home, will also be able to interact before, during and after the race through Formula E's social media channels. As well as following the official Championship channels, you can also check out what the teams and drivers have been saying or get involved with competitions and even vote for your favourite driver who will receive an extra 'Push-to-Pass' - meaning you could directly affect the outcome of the race!

Vettel to lose by a massive margin every round, Webber to have continual push-to-pass over the entire length of every race.
Oh geez, never good to read that news
Lotus are finally closing in on that investment deal that was talked about several months ago. I hope it goes through. Even with Kimi not there I still want to see a relatively smaller team compete with the big boys. http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/110658

Looks like vettel can match Schumacher's 13iwns in a season and ascaris 9 wins in a row if he wins out from here.
Would be cool to see the 9wins get marched. It's been there since 53.

Speculation on Vettel's traction control system:

The interesting thing about that is that if the system is how they describe it, it wouldn't actually account for the engine note, which would be unaffected (this "traction control" is downstream of the engine).
Edit - I just noticed that's mentioned in one of the source articles.
