What better way to start the new F1 thread than wishing Lewis Hamilton a Happy 34th Birthday

Here's hoping for a great season and another world championship for the lad from Stevenage

Get In Lewis and hopefully

@Cleoriff Interesting! The colour scheme reminds me of orange Capri Sun juice pouches ... 🍊

[Cleoriff]

Just two more to reveal now...

Ferrari (tomorrow). This is the one many people (not me) are waiting for!

Sauber (Alfa Romeo Racing) will be revealed on Monday 18th ...The first day of testing!

(Testing will be shown on Sky F1 )

[Cleoriff]

So Ferrari revealed the SF 90 today. No gloss paint...Only matt colours used

Whether it can beat Mercedes remains to be seen.

Bring it on.....

The car is definitely a winner on looks alone. Who doesn't want a red Ferrari ?

[Cleoriff]

Hopefully Mercedes will only see it in its wing mirrors @jonsie

Rumours flying round today that Ted Kravitz has been sacked?

https://thesportsrush.com/ted-kravitz-has-been-sacked-by-sky-sports-according-to-reports/

In Wikipedia he is classed as a 'previous presenter'

Shocked!!

Apparently (and according to the rumour mill) Sky Sports F1 has a new boss..he doesn't like Ted.

Bad move by Sky if that's true!

They have moved Karun Chandhok from Ch4 to Sky F1. Also Jenson Button is now part of the team

I watched testing last week and Ted didn't figure in any of the coverage.

Bummer, I liked Ted but JB is a welcome addition.
