Also, how many races before Massa comes back from retirement again.

customer teams, the ones that get their engines from engine suppliers instead of developing their own. RB is technically a customer team too, as they use Renault as a supplier. Mercedes, Ferrari, Renault - factory, or "works" teams. The rest are customer teams.

So maybe: Top 10 (maybe scoring system like 3 points for every correct position, 1 for the driver being in the top 10?) Pole Position Fastest Lap Fastest Customer (or customer with highest finish?) How many laps before Alonso retires from the race ?

Even a meter of snow couldn't possibly hide that monstrosity

It's official - F1 are launching F1TV, their official live streaming service!!! Absolutely great and very affordable pricing too!

Snow in Barcelona... Times and laps of Day Two so far:

Are we planning to run any sort of F1 predictions/fantasy game for the new season? @Tommy @Cannabis @Stan @RandoEFC @Storts

yeah, they only had a short live feed (for like 15 minutes) on their Facebook site... I watched live streams on Periscope every once in a while, but obviously not much to see as it's filmed from one turn only, but at least could catch some glimpses

I like the idea of painting the car orange as it's still iconic for Mclaren, even if we haven't seen it recently. This one was a beauty: But I don't like what they made of the livery in general, so I'm not a fan either... Agreed with the rest, too. Sauber is still the best looking car for me, followed by Ferrari (halo looks the least horrible on it, in my opinion) and Renault.

Looks like it, yes Alonso managed quite a few laps after getting back on track too though, so it's likely that it was just a wheel bolt/nut defect on his Mclaren... hopefully for them, anyway. Renault with 99 laps but relatively lower top speeds; makes sense after their announcement that they'll be focusing on reliability at the start of the season and will look to improve performance later on. Oh well, it's only the first day of testing anyway, the priority for the teams is surely just gathering data at this point. Hopefully the weather conditions will improve for tomorrow, there were even talks of testing being extended to Friday.

End of Day 1 Testing.

Force India's Russian development driver, apparently. I only know him from the incident in Formula 3 where he got banned from the race for beating another driver in the paddocks Morning session is over, Ricciardo with the fastest time so far!

Testing times so far:

Red flag again after Force India gets stuck in gravel in T4.

Great start for Alonso

Also, new Toro Rosso:

Easily the worst car so far...looks awful. The only car ever that could pull pink was die Sau from Porsche

I was talking about Americans as opposed to humans overall, yes, but never said it's restricted solely to one nation.

Rather Americans at large killing in war is one thing, killing and high violence/crime rates during peace time in general pretty much shows that something is wrong with a certain society.

I didn't really mean mental illness of an individual though, rather the state of the society at large.

They should rather take a look at the mental health of the population; the Swiss have lax gun laws too, yet they don't go on a shooting spree every other day...

Glad I'm not the only one

I must be the only one who doesn't find it great Lack of sponsors or not, an F1 car shouldn't look this empty... I'm also not a fan of the livery design in general, it looks bland, even in spite of the bright papaya colour. To be fair though, it does look better in some pictures from the track, I think it's the lighting that makes the difference.

Looks ok from the front, but the sides of the car are so bland...probably just sponsoring space that's going to be filled though.
