FIA: "We're going to ban all non-essential staff from the pit lane" ____Wait 3 Weeks_______________ "Oops, did we say that? Sorry, we're not" Such a mess, I think I posted the Will Buxton blog outlining how much of a farce the rule-change was when it was first announced, and now they've completely undone any remaining extra rules that they originally imposed. Ridiculous. Do we need an "FIA fail thread", or like the BBC, have we now given up all hope?
They implicate themselves enough without us needing a special thread It is another case of just how small a pair of cahooneys the FIA have
Massa: “It’s going to be a very hot weekend and if you ask what suits us best, I would say the heat, so if the car works well, we should expect to have a good race pace and therefore race on the attack not on the defence"

I think a thread where we can collect and discuss the myriad failings of Todt and his cronies in one place is a good idea. Would you like to do it or shall I?
Red Bull have this race easily won. Too easy for Vettel. I'm happy I won't be able to watch the race.
It's great for Red Bull and Vettel fans, looking like a foregone conclusion for them. Hopefully, qualifying and the race will throw up some excitement, or at least a bit of controversy to discuss during the next four weeks.
Borefest written all over it. Season will be effectively over by Sunday evening, unless Kimi or Fernando can pull off a miracle.
****. @andrewbensonf1 Race-sim averages medium tyre: VET 26.7; WEB 26.9; GRO 27.2; ALO 27.4; RAI 27.6; HAM 27.7; MAS 28.3; ROS 28.8 ‏ Race-sim averages soft tyre: VET 1:27.1; WEB 27.5; GRO 27.7; ROS 27.9; ALO 28.2; RAI 28.3; HAM 28.3
Well we can thank Pirelli for ruining this season. All because Red Bull moaned about the tyres and now look who they suit the most...
Oh no, uni semester starts back up on monday, yeah that's the real reason why I can't watch this race....
It's not fun kicking them while their down, I like to have their hopes up and then kick them until their down!
