    Having thought about it for five seconds I'm going with best since the Brawn in 09. I think they got the paint cheap off the Woking version of Del Boy but it worked.

    The brilliant thing is that it's basically the same design as last year but with one colour changed. See how simple it is you dickheads.

    There's a fine tradition of middling (or just plain crap) cars that were lovely to look at. Lotus and Tyrell spent most of the late 80's and 90's doing little else.

    I have a guilty soft spot for the inaugural BAR.



    Although less so for the bloke driving it.

    Those chunky tyres really helping out in the corners it seems.

    Hopefully we can have a 2 or 3 team battle for the title this year. Instead of the usual one were Toto pretends like the other teams are really close to their pace, then the weekend comes around and the 2 Mercs lol off into the distance.

    I'm just hoping we get a season with McClaren as proper backmarkers. Seeing them and Honda seethe at each other, while trying to pretend it's all fine is great.

    The line of the front wing and the nose cone, two things I will never tire of looking at. Same with the Tyrrell.

    Remember when United Colours of Benneton was so huge they could afford to sponsor Formula 1? I don't think I've seen a shop of theirs in about a decade.

    There are three in Geneva according to their website. I think they are still pretty big.

    They did more than sponsor them, they bought the entire team and ran it for about 15 years.

    The last good looking car to win the thing was a fucking Brabham, and banning tobacco sponsorship ruined any chance of a decent colour scheme. Bernie wins again.

    McLaren boss Eric Boullier says the team would be winning if they were still powered by Mercedes engines.
    Does anyone else want to tell him?

    I can see Honda pulling out this year. Nothing in that relationship sounds positive.

    The interesting thing (if anything to do with F1 free practice is interesting) from the timesheets is that the Merc customer teams are all a fairly long way back, and also if the Hulk beats Jolyon Palmer by two seconds a lap all year it will be quite lol.

    Don't tell me Alain Menu is still dragging one of his rustbuckets around as well.

    What's John Cleland up to these days?

    I've just looked through the lineup for this year and recognise at least Plato and Matt Neal from the mid 90s.

    Rob Collard must have been around for nearly two decades as well.

    Not dying in a plane crash (I got him confused with David Leslie the other week). Alain Menu was last in the BTCC in 2015.

    Being a customer sucks balls, biggest reason why Mclaren aren't shrugging off their kimono anytime soon.

    This thread has reminded myself to record Qualifying and the race not like it will make much difference.

    Lol at Hamilton thinking Ferrari are "favourites" and "quickest".

    Riccardo going into the barrier was about the height of the entertainment.
