Just flashed up that John Surtees has passed away. RIP to the only person to have held motorcycle and F1 world titles. A motor racing great and a gentleman.
One of our greatest sportsmen, but never knighgted despite his amazing achievements. Need to win an Olympic gold for that. Now he's with Henry. RIP, sir John.
Done. I wonder if f1 will listen but not react too hastily without thinking. Thats what I hope the new bosses will do.
F1 and WEC linked? Whilst F1 liveries have improved this season it seems the Toyota and Porsche have decided on identical liveries.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-39539368 I hope this is for formula e. A street circuit for F1 in the UK is a bad idea. Unless it's a one off European GP?

So the question is why? Alonso wants to, but why not next year - unless he thinks he won't be able to because of a new team? F1/LeMans? Who is going to step in?
He'd do well to remember what happened to Nigel Mansell and Nelson Piquet when they attempted Ovals for the first time having stepped straight from an F1 car ...............
