Holy shit, the MotoGP coverage absolutely spanks FOM's coverage.
We can all pretend that a race is happening and post accordingly, if that helps.
I'll start.

Here we go.

The only thing I'd accept is the jet type canopy.
Everything else looks like ass and only does half the job.

Blick saying Maldonado is getting the chop at Lotus / The Hulk is Renault's first choice target, Perez the fall back option.
No way the Hulk turns down a works drive if this is true?
Perez and Maldonado in Force Destruction India, pls!

Not sure it's about craziness. I'm certain Bernie will be trying to talk the Mercs into supplying Red Bull for the 'good of the sport' (extra payments may or may not be included in that "talk").
Unless somehow Haas can lure Hulk with cash (and they're supposedly not going after him anyway), Hulk to Renault/Lotus seems like a sure bet. I also hope/can definitely see FI picking Maldonado up.

If I was Merc I'd offer to supply Toro Rosso and say let Ferrari supply Red Bull just for the shiggles
I didn't watch Spa this weekend, but I did watch Le Mans and it spanked F1 as well. Wouldn't be surprised if the Spa WEC coverage demolished it as well.

Surprised nobody commented on JPM losing the Indycar title after colliding with his teammate, and despite, in the end, being even on points with Scott Dixon. Oh.... and the double points too...

Wow, that is hard.
He should come back to Williams, fill the gap Bo77as will leave when he eventually joins Ferrari.
RBR with Mercedes engines would be a big threat to works team.

Does that mean he's going to drive fast now?
If Grosjean is anything to go by, then yes
Happy it ended well after the complicated pregnancy they had, congrats to them !

German press (Bild) says Hulk will stay at Force India. They will announce it today.
What a shame
Force India will probably be in better shape next year than Renault, and anything could happen in 2017.

Is Hulkenberg the most talented GP2 champ to be wasted?German press (Bild) says Hulk will stay at Force India. They will announce it today.
What a shame
And then Max Verstappen can complain that a kid that young gets to drive F1 and how it devalues the sport and how it's too risky and dangerous.
"When looking back, I was too immature to handle these kind of cars... "

But is the GP2 championship even worth anything anymore, when Maldonado was able to win it?
*dun dun dun*

Wasn't Maldonado the oldest driver in the field when he won it though? I thought as long as you won that thing in a year or two your worth or talent was proven?
At least Tilke has designed a similar combination in Austin.
"It has been called "the best race track in the world" by Formula One supremo Bernie Ecclestone".
whoops
Bottas is nothing special. Nothing special at all. What has he done or shown that makes you say something like that? He isn't better than Massa and he was given the boot at Ferrari.

Turkey 2010.... immense lols were had that day.
Absolutely nothing. It was because there was talk of him moving to Ferrari that I mentioned it.
He has shown potential. Which at this early stage of his career is worth a lot more than any negativity of being at the very worst, on-a-par with someone who lost the WDC by twenty seconds.

If's and but's mean nothing.
Massa in his prime was a very quick driver, and he still is very good. Bottas being on his level is by no means a negative thing.
Didn't we think that about Grosjean and Maldonado? To his credit, Grosjean's been a lot better of late, though.
Because you might not get a chance to witness it again? It's like Halley's Comet.

This is very true indeed. With the right car and support behind him he can still be a very quick driver, too bad I missed most of him in his prime cause it seems like a really narrow window. I heard he was terrible during his Sauber years and I didn't start watching F1 semi regularly till 2009, I caught the tail end of the 2008 season so I didn't really see that much then. My regular watching didn't really start till 2010 and we both know how well the Alonso partnership worked out for him. I'm glad to see him having fun at Williams though with his motorsport life mate Rob Smedley.
But what happens when you can only understand half of what Kimi says?
