Formula1 2016

[Cleoriff]

Channel 4 has taken over the terrestrial viewing for Formula 1 after BBC opted out of the contract.

I love F1 and am a bit dubious as to how successful this will be. However they have stated there will be no adverts during race time (thank god)

Yesterday they officially revealed the presenting team......

David Coulthard, Mark Webber, Alain Prost, Alex Zanardi, Susie Wolff, Karun Chandhok, Eddie Jordan and Bruno Senna; alongside seasoned live presenters and journalists Steve Jones, Ben Edwards and Lee McKenzie.

It also says Guy Martin will be making appearances

I think Lewis was mentioned in the equation @Beenherebefore....

"Think" or "know" ?.......you can't easily deflect a conspiracy theory when I'm involved.

Oh great Lewis has crashed.....

[Beenherebefore]

But all 5 wheels still work !!

[Cleoriff]

He is out of practice. They have to look at the chassis apparently

[Beenherebefore]

Not surprised.....carbon fibre, although strong in one direction, can be weak in an another direction i.e. at right angles

Oh by the way what Toto actually said was...

He had no concerns about Rosberg and Hamilton's contracts expiring at the same time.

"It means they will try to outperform each other and you have to think to the younger generation," he said. "For me, there is more opportunity than risk in having both run out at the same time."

Its P3 now. Hamiltons car is fixed. Watching it on Sky and to be honest I am getting confused listening to the new rules about cutting corners and bends....Something about if you do this 3 times in qualifying you will get a penalty....??

All too technical for me
