Yup, can't wait to hear what Horner and Marko have to say when the 2019 Honda has as much power as the 2014 Renault....

Really can't handle Horner at all. Standard bewildered toff with a chav tart wife. The bloke is cringeworthy. Marko looks like a kiddie fiddler too. RB as a team have behaved only in their own self interests right from the start. I'd not lose any sleep watching them fall down the field because they've thrown Renault under a bus and now have to put up with that dog of a Honda.

Has to be said that watching Max overdrive like crazy to try and get some results could be most entertaining too!

LOL
Incidentally, this is his crash helmet from his accident, where a stone pierced the visor and he lost his eye:



Completely agree re. Horner, I switch off when that twat is on tv, I absolutely cannot stand him.

Martin Brundle owning the dick:

My god Sean, that "helmut" photo is MENTAL. Looks absolutely brutal. Amazed he lived looking at that!!!

As for the Brundle dis, it's absolutely CLASSIC! "Get back in your box you little titwitch, don't go giving it the big man when you're nowt!"

quoted as saying the honda is only 12bhp shy of renault and the poor results were due to maclaren chassis lololol

 

[peter]

fact is that the mclaren's still a dog in a straight line. lots of downforce, but also lots of drag?
another problem honda had with mclaren, was packaging. can't see mr.newey suddenly building fat cars.

lol McLaren have continuously stated their chassis is among the best on the grid, which is now patently bullshit. Although this is from the same people who said the Honda engine would be competitive in 2015 "without question", and that it was a "piece of jewellery". Still can't stand them for what they did to Ron Dennis.

Really interesting! Love stuff like this. And that tech show on MTV is REALLY good. The whole channel has come on leaps and bounds since Peter Windsor has got involved.

Yeah I really like the Peter Windsor stuff, and Craig Scarborough's tech programme is great too.

side note - Alonso quickest in practice at Spa, with the privateer Rebellion 4-tenths off the pace. I still think Toyota will walk it though.

TOTALLY forgot about Spa!!! Nice one mate.

And that bodes well that the privateer cars are pretty much on pace.

Rebellion were fastest in this morning's final practice - https://www.autosport.com/wec/news/135778/rebellion-outpaces-toyota-in-final-practice. Also noticed they're sponsored by TVR - didn't realise they still existed!
There is some weird fuel efficiency rule in place though that should give the Toyota an advantage - https://www.autosport.com/wec/news/135588/lmp1-privateers-get-spa-performance-blow

Thanks guys, have just registered on the WEC site so will take a gander in a bit for Q1

Yeah just saw that! Adrian Newey couldn't lace the guy's shoes tbh, just for the McLaren F1 and MP4/4 alone.

There are things I don't like about the styling but side exit exhausts is cool as fook. You'll be able to see flames!

And because of the exhaust, MY GOD look at the diffuser. It's proper.

Plus we know the engine is going to be bloody amazing.

Expecting it to be quite the thing...

... just for the McLaren F1 and MP4/4 alone.

... and those brabham cars from back in the days when animals could talk. remember the 'fan car'? still think the BT44 and BT45 look absolutely gorgeous. martini branding helps of course.

he's having a mk1 escort restored ...
