It doesn't really matter what they do to the cars, methinks....the rules are the same for everyone, so it matters not a ha'peth.

And it's NEVER going to be as good as bike racing....you can't lean a car, a car takes up tons of trackspace, etc......it's the NFL of motor-racing.....all show & no go.

Like Nikki Lauda once remarked...."I am so burned-out at doing this Formula One thing....."

Terrible wasn't it. They couldn't catch Hamilton even when he was slowing and pissing about. Laughable.

I wish, but suspect they'll be trying to poach a very talented young Dutch bloke off Red Bull

Button has done his stint, I bet he's glad to be out of it.

They can get pretty much anyone they want. Money talks.

Bottas has tweeted that he's joining Mercedes.

He looked good for Williams but he won't be a challenge to Hamilton, so the team will be easier to run this year.
