2014 Formula 1 Season Paddock

Any news on Alonso's seat next year?

 

I heard a rumor he signed directly with Honda and will drive the mclaren.

 

You didn't see the race but can tell me Bianchi was driving at " excessive speed " even though there has been no telemetry released ?

 

Hamilton to McLaren ?

I just wait for the first Q round of the first race, then I see what butt is in what car. At that point I know for sure who is driving for who.

Usually when they specifically deny a rumor it turns out to be true.

 

No shit! With Eccle$tone everything is to do with money - and guess who has a nationally certified printing press for the stuff.

 

I think this would make the F1 race cars look more like the LMP1 cars which I really like as well. Hmm

 

Gotta be able to extract the driver , and cockpit enclosure would most likely just be some form of bubble like a WW2 fighter plane

 

To me it's basically a giant helmet over the driver.

 

The cockpit is way bigger on those cars and the drivers kinda get in from the side , would need a total redesign of the F1 monocoque

I love the LeMans cars and that racing, but not a fan for F1.....
F1 is open wheel, open cockpit thang.... IMO
