    Manor has the cleanest livery. I kind of wish they could all be this simple.

    Sort of reminds me of the Marlboro livery of old.

    Speaking of liveries, I don't understand why so many people are giving Sauber crap for theirs. Most common putdown I heard was one version or another of (spoken with a snide or contemptuous tone) "What were they thinking? It looks like a GP3 livery."

    I like it.

    The rain showed Vettel is more of a driver than Rosberg is. I love the rain it equals the cars a bit & showcases driver talent. Bet Fernando is not very happy to see Vettel up where he is. I hope it is a wet race, could be a good one.

    What was it the head of Fiat said last year as he was taking a broom to Ferrari racing, "It's not a Ferrari if it isn't winning?"

    That was the best race since the middle of 2013!!

    Hammy didn't look happy but not as upset as I thought. Evidently he was quite surprised when he found out Seb was only 3 points behind him. Nico's podium expression said a lot. "Oh crap now I have to deal with 2 of the them".

    This looks like it could be a good season after all.

    I do believe a bit of dementia has crept up on Bernie.

    I asked earlier which RB driver would be stuck with the Infiniti 'ambassador' bit, or whatever they call him. Now we know.

    Haven't decided. Race starts 2am my time. If I'm smart, I'll set the DVR and hit the sack before it starts.

    FYI, and speaking of setting the DVR, the WEC 6HR at Silverstone is being broadcast LIVE in the US tomorrow (Sun, 7:00am Eastern) on FS1.

    Interesting read...

    The Buxton Blog

    I wish I’d taken a look at Ferrari’s odds of winning the 2015 Formula 1 World Championship in late December last year. If only because it would have given me a better intro to this piece than to say I wished I had.

    You see, there’s no way on earth I’d have wasted a penny on the bet back then. I don’t know of many inside the paddock who would have done either. Perhaps not even Sebastian Vettel. And yet here we sit, albeit after only three races, and regardless of the as-yet humble proclamations from Maranello that they’re a long way off fighting for the title… Ferrari might just have a genuine shot.

    I hope that this year's is as good as last year, that one was one of the best.

    I really enjoyed the parts of the race that I saw (kept dozing off because I went to the gym before it started). I wish there were more night races throughout the season. It was great to see Kimi on the podium.

    Better race, would like to see what might have been if Ferrari had pitted Kimi and swapped to the softs just after Lewis passed him.... Nico was impressive early but Lewis was the class of the field again...
