It'll look a lot better if it wins some races.

There have been any number of good looking cars that only ever won last place.

Watching Redbull's presentation accidentally - Youtube pinged me about it, I was not working... Yeah it's boring. But Horner is on... He does look TIRED.

The Ferraris in posts 141 and 142 are very dissimilar.

Anyone know (yet) what the accusations are against Horner?

Ya, winning 30% of the championships in the last 20 years. Apparently, not good enough.

No one knows for sure, but the running bet is he used some harsh language and threatening tones against a female who apparently took umbrage to his tone, approach and commentary.

From what I hear, there was no sexual incident other than perhaps using names that the weaker vessels may find unpleasant.

This really begins to challenge the idea that F1 has gone from a mechanical nerd's dream of happiness to yet another reality show featuring prima donna's, illogical rules that limit innovation and made-for-tv contrived race rules.

Personally I have gone from awaiting the next F1 race like it was the Second Coming to something I might watch the summary of on YouTube.

This is the first article I have seen that suggests Horners actions were sexual in nature . This article states a $$$ payoff for silence was offered . We have no way of knowing if this article is accurate or not .

Ford has stated they expect business partners to act in a highly respectable manner . Does Ford back out of the engine deal if Horner is guilty/fired ? Big $$$ at stake here .

He's being cancelled due to his resistance
to becoming un-asleep.

Yep, a few teams only use very thin vinyl wrap and don't paint any parts but most teams will paint a few small parts like mirrors

Only 1kg or 2.2lbs for a full F1 livery is quite impressive :cool:

And in yesterday's test session who was fastest ? Max Verstappen by almost 3/4 of a second . Here's my surprised look 😁
