MPH Posted 30 December 2014 Posted 30 December 2014 Why Lotus persist with Maldonado i will never know.... The amount of crashes and retirements he has caused....
Sir Fynwy Posted 30 December 2014 Posted 30 December 2014 Why Lotus persist with Maldonado i will never know.... The amount of crashes and retirements he has caused.... Crashes get shown on TV and they are the best coverage Lotus is likely to get [emoji6]
isaidno Posted 30 December 2014 Posted 30 December 2014 Really looking forward to next season. Off to the Monaco Gp in May
Nalis Posted 30 December 2014 Posted 30 December 2014 Driver wise the top end looks good, the middle pack look quite light in quality this year. Isaidno and the rest of the resident F1 experts, do we know who looks to be good this year bar Mercedes? Thinking a cheeky Bottas bet for the championship could be tempting...
Trav Le Bleu Posted 30 December 2014 Posted 30 December 2014 I'm hoping Honda's return to McLaren will make them competetive again. They seemed to be getting there by the end of the season, but we all know that a new season presents new rules and everything can turn on it's head.
DennisNedry Posted 30 December 2014 Posted 30 December 2014 Why Lotus persist with Maldonado i will never know.... The amount of crashes and retirements he has caused.... Sponsorship money.

The rules are pretty much the same next season so Mercedes will stay at the front. McLaren are the dark horses. Arguably the best drivers , but depends on what Honda can produce. Last time they were in F1 there engine was poor
The Horse's Mouth Posted 30 December 2014 Posted 30 December 2014 McLaren are probably our only hope. Hoping we can snag a win this year, we've surely got the car to do it.
ADK Posted 31 December 2014 Posted 31 December 2014 There's 3 contenders as I see it, Mercedes Red Bull and McLaren. Merc are favourites with 2 top drivers and the best engine which they can further improve. Red Bull still have good aero so it will depend on how big an improvement Renault are able to make to their engine relative to Mercedes. Both drivers still unproven. McLaren are an unknown with Honda taking an extra year to develop their engine which means they will have been able to see what is working for the other teams. They also have 2 top drivers. Williams will probably do ok but I doubt they will challenge for the title as they are still a customer team and don't have a top driver.
Amin Posted 7 January 2015 Posted 7 January 2015 The Korean GP has been removed as expected. It was only there in the first place to allow the teams to run 5 PUs during the year.
iamafox Posted 7 January 2015 Author Posted 7 January 2015 Korea never deserved a place on the calendar anyway.
isaidno Posted 10 January 2015 Posted 10 January 2015 http://www1.skysports.com/f1/news/12433/9635142/fia-reveal-new-qualifying-criteria-for-super-licences-from-2016 New licence rules. Stops crap drivers buying there way into F1
FoxesAreBlue Posted 11 January 2015 Posted 11 January 2015 McLaren will release their new car on 29th January
iamafox Posted 21 January 2015 Author Posted 21 January 2015 Williams have released photos of their new car for 2015, the FW37.
FoxesAreBlue Posted 21 January 2015 Posted 21 January 2015 New Force India The livery looks a bit McLaren-esque from the Vodafone era
ADK Posted 22 January 2015 Posted 22 January 2015 It looks like a cross between McLarens late 90's early 2000's silver livery and their orange testing colours. It's nice looking though. The Williams is ok. Hardly iconic but not ugly.
Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot Posted 24 January 2015 Posted 24 January 2015 Force India is a lovely looking machine.
Nalis Posted 25 January 2015 Posted 25 January 2015 In that pic Sergio Perez looks like a young Giancarlo Fisichella. Throwback.
isaidno Posted 26 January 2015 Posted 26 January 2015 Looks better without the twin tusk nose. Grosjean is a good outsider for the top 3
