Formula One ( F1 )

How am I insulting anyone? By telling them they moan? Jesus, you are easily insulted.

If I wanted to insult someone I'd call them a cunt.

Come on, saying that people that don't share your opinion "are the kind of people that are never satisfied, with anything, and live a dull and miserable life of bitching and moaning about everything..."

It's insulting, incredibly childish and considering that you're the one doing most of the moaning, it's a bit daft.

Seriously - what's not to like?

Adverts.
The bit with the giant touch screen.

Ah well, I am sorry man, didn't mean to insult with that, was more of a query really. Perhaps better punctuation and smilies would have been better? Seems you took it to heart. Or just a case of for offence to be given it has to be taken? Apologies. And I certainly am not moaning, actually I find the whole thing quite humorous.

Adverts and touch screen, yeah, not the best, but that's what pause and fast forward are for. They're not on during the race are they?

Anthony Davidson.
Ted Kravitz (real name Theodore Slotover lol) didn't like him when he was at the beeb and Gary Anderson regularly shows him up in the knowledge stakes.

Sky have Damon Hill, whereas the BBC have Eddie fucking Jordan.
And Georgie Thompson has a perfect arse. David Coultard does not.

Alonso warms to Hamilton. Truthfully, they both have high praise for each other. It just seems that Red Bull are only truly credited for having Adrian Newey on board.

Speaking of Hamilton.

Does this seem a little awkward/uncomfortable to anyone else?

Gridds, slight non sequitur, do you work with composites as someone (I forget who) suggested?

Yes. Yes I do.

Lewis Hamilton makes his first appearance with Mercedes - YouTube

Bless him - he did look a bit nervous.

But this is new for him. I think he's made a bold move and this could be his "Schumacher to Ferrari" era, but I doubt it.

I can only assume that everyone in F1 underestimated how successful the alliance of Red Bull/Vettel would actually be.

Besides, haven't Mercy already written off 2013 as a year for "package development" or some such bobbins?

Lotus launch their new car tonight.

Watch it live from 19:15 GMT here:

Also live on Sky Sports News

Tuned in, should be interesting!

Apparently it's still got a stepped nose though.

I cannot get onto that YouTube feed, and via Virgin have no Sky Sports News.

AAArrrrrgh they have further ruined the pastiche of the JPS livery they had last year!

For those who missed it, looks like this

Very nice!

It may also actually go seeing as they are no longer using their own wind tunnel.

New Force India VJM06

I think the new Ferrari looks quite nice, I'm pained to say.

The Mclaren lookes exactly the same on the outside as last year... except for the pull-rod front suspension, from what I can see.

VJM06 - No step! \o/

Sauber C32

A moderately interesting video from Red Bull
