Ooh. They will keep whiting as long as he agrees to permanent race stewards. And a different consistent set of rules.

I also don't think that liberty media will be bribed as much as Bernie. Nor will they be as scared of a team saying "give our guys a pass or we are pulling out" a la Red Bull last season.

I do not see what negatives could come from the situation. Should only be positive things moving forward.
Good breath of fresh air for the sport.

Sauber have found a loophole in the new aero rules and will more than likely pull a 'Brawn-style' shocking underdog Championship win:

I'm liking the rear wings. I think the 2017 cars are looking good.

I think the mistake was painting it silver.

I'm bummed. I want the booze mobile to have more booze on it.

The merc design of "fin" or whatever we will call it looks way better than the others.
I wonder how much it changes air dynamics to have it full all the way to the spoiler vs follow the line of the car more?

Bottas said in an interview after practice that, that was the most down force he had ever felt in a car.
