F1 2019

Just sorted my team of drivers and cars for the new season. I still know nowt about any of this but I did alright last time so going to give it a go again.

Looks like the same SMB league is still there so I re-joined but it says the league is waiting the manager to re-activate it. If we are having a different league let me know, please.

But that is me all set and ready. Even made my predictions for the first race.

Unusual nose job by the Renault team...

Autosport on Instagram: “ An unusual device added to the front wing of @renaultsportf1’s RS19 #F1Testing @motorsport.images - #Formula1 #Renault #renaultsportf1…”

Innovation seems so rare...

Is that just there to measure something Or serving an aerodynamic purpose? Can't imagine that's allowed by the new front wing rules

Most genuine innovation gets banned anyway.

It'll be measuring something, air pressures at a guess. It'll be a slightly smaller version of the huge things I've seen on other cars but further back

Like this on the Ferrari

So, surprise surprise, the Mercs were sandbagging all along.

I need to choose mine as well. Not the SMB league manager though.

No idea. It needs reactivating.

it's just measuring the flex in the wing.

Video of it breaking here --> Eau rouge on Twitter

My mate stopped booking Renault cars into his garage as things kept breaking or falling off.

Paddy Lowe taking a ‘leave of absence’ from Williams...

What’s that? Jump before pushed?

Buck stops with him ultimately. This and last seasons cars are entirely down to him.

I presume the team must think they’ll spend most the season at the tail end of the grid, again... sadly...

I think that was obvious from the way Claire was talking. In 40 years they have never been late for testing. Sorry state of affairs.

Shame, have I hopes for George Russell too... perhaps Lando will be the leading rookie this year...

I guess they can take some hope from what McLaren have done in Barcelona in the last two weeks... wonder what odds you could get on McLaren front row lock out next weekend?

If I’ve read this right, F1 has a new theme tune...

As music videos goes - this is a bit f***ing mental...

Son of laika signs for Ferrari & is faster than Kvyat...

F1 to award point to driver who sets fastest lap in a grand prix

Can't see anything why that shouldn't be the case.

Sometimes think Qualifying could be changed to include some points too.

i think they are against this because it could result in the championship being won on a Saturday.

could make the closing laps marginally more interesting, i recall vettel often getting wrong for setting a fastest lap for red bull when they would be running away with a race...
