Nah. I think if we can get into the points consistently that'll be good for us. Same with reaching Q3. Realistically I think there's probably another season before the engine is where it needs to be.

 

We shall see what testing brings but this is probably more of a 2003 season than 2004. I know we got a podium in 03 and if circumstances are kind we could do it this year but I don't think it's likely - unless we can plant the car on pole at Monaco and hold the lead through the first corner

The nose of this new Force India is utterly hideous!! So ugly

And what's with the shark fin as part of their design for Force India.

 

Very ambitious that they're targeting 3rd in the constructor's championship can't see that happening.

A new livery for McLaren in orange and black:

And the unveiling of Ferrari's new car:

I actually really love that McLaren, gives me Arrows circa 2001/2002 vibes. :wub:

Yeah I agree! It's very very Arrows

Just saw an Insta post that had a stacked pic of the new McLaren, an Arrows and a Spyker and omg they're legit so similar. Forgot Spyker were orange.

Has everyone seen the new Toro Rosso? Stunning. Best nose of this years cars and that new livery is sensational

Very impressive livery from Toro Rosso there indeed.

Can't see Alonso staying at McLaren next year if McLaren have another poor season.

 

 

Williams have cancelled testing for today following crash damage to the car after Stroll's crash.

 

 

Hope it doesn't happen although it looks likely could be another mediocre season for McLaren.

 

 

The days where they had Hakkinen & Coulthard are long gone.

 

 

Well yes they did win races and won a drivers title in 2008, we'll wait and see what happens this season.

The McHonda shit show is all the BBC seem to be capable of talking about. Looks like a strong showing from Ferrari and RBR and surprisingly Renault. It is testing so you don't really know who is sandbagging and who is driving on fumes. The Renault engines were supposedly running detuned this week. (In all 3 cars)

 

Could be an interesting year.

No-one if ever will match the achievement that John Surtees did with winning the F1 world title and the 500cc world title.

 

RIP John Surtees.

Won't miss the Force India card this year. They're now bright pink!

Pink, okay.

 

It's because of a new sponsorship deal.

 

 

Excellent, I love that this year seems to be more diverse in terms of liveries. And I can't recall ever seeing a pink F1 car so that is very unique indeed!

Expecting McLaren and Sauber in locking the back of the grid this weekend.
