QUOTE(Dobbo @ Jan 31 2018, 08:31 PM)  So grid girls are no longer. Whilst I can see why this has inevitably happened I can't help but think the powers that be really should have been looking into about a million other things with the Sport first... I have a feeling they may end up reversing this decision. There's barely any women in F1 as it is, and the Powers that Be have just sacked the majority of them. Not that I care either way, as my enjoyment of F1 has never hinged on the existence of Pit Girls anyway. |

I agree with stopping the practice. They are there for no other reason for creepy old men to have a perv at some attractive young women. It’s creepy and exploitative and belongs in the trash.
However. I think Liberty have missed the mark here. Don’t see why they couldn’t announce a global fan lottery (F1 is hardly a povo sport) where fans can be the ones to hold the marker for their hero. What F1 fab wouldn’t want to do that? Get paddock club access for the race weekend and spend build up in the thick of the action? |

Revised schedules for the race weekends has been confirmed. The 10 past the hour shite is here to stay. Why is it Liberty gotta mess with shit that don't need fixing |

Get young fans to meet their heroes would work.
Stupid with the race starting at 10 past the hour, pointless as anything. |

QUOTE Formula 1 is to replace 'grid girls' with a new programme called 'grid kids' this season. F1 bosses plan to use budding racing drivers "to make the pre-race ceremony more relevant and interesting for fans, especially the younger ones". The children used will be competitors in karting or junior categories, chosen by national motorsport authorities. |

As have Haas and Williams! The halo doesn’t actually look too out of place imo.

With 6 laps into testing, Fernando Alonso crashed his McLaren in the first hour of winter testing.

Well it makes a change from an engine failure at least.

It looks like for the first time since the hybrids appeared, Renault are leading the engine mileage chart!!!
Looked like a strong day for Renault F1 too which is encouraging for me. I love that there’s new helmet cams! There’s some fab footage around. Being able to actually see where they’re looking is pretty cool as you can see them looking for the apex and the when they switch from apex to apex in combinations of corners |

Hoping this season although unlikely that there at least five teams going for the win this season. What would you like the order to be on bases of how competitive teams are?
Myself: Red Bull Ferrari Mercedes McLaren Renault Force India Williams Toro Rosso Haas Sauber |

The third day of testing in Barcelona has been delayed to snowy conditions.

I reckon:
Mercedes Ferrari McLaren (Stoffel did well yesterday!) Red Bull Renault Force India - or whatever they rename themselves as before Australia! Williams Toro Rosso Sauber Haas Still early days ofc, and tough to gauge really due to the current conditions in Cataluña! |
