Well not the best season by any means . I thought it was better than 2016 , but that’s not saying much .

Thanks to all of you that put in the effort of the race day threads .

Bloody hell, a McLaren did 95 laps in one day!?

Honda are starting to get it right, look at their results post Hungary.

They have made strides on reliability (compared to where they were), they just need to sort out the power deficit without going back to blowing up every 3 laps.

It will be typical of Alonso's career that Honda make a break over the winter and turn out a decent engine for next year!

I'm more surprised Hamilton turned up for a test. He's normally got a injured foot or something.

Gutted this is the last time we'll see the cars without halos. Just feels like an end of an era
