More and more reports are starting to doubt Kubica's comeback. Interesting to see how it'll unfold.

Sergey Sirotkin has emerged as the favourite to drive for Williams in 2018, with Robert Kubica no longer in the frame, Autosport has learned.

 

 

The hype train is experiencing some technical difficulties.

I was just about to post that  Valtteri throwing away the canned fish "Cheers, Max" was hilarious

 

Pascal still asking for a contract made me a bit sad though

Hülkenberg throwing the beret away was a bit cuntish though.

Yea, I thought so too. Even if you don't like it, you have to respect a gift and the intention

Nice of Vettel to throw his toys out of the pram after losing the Championship and abstain from Secret Santa. 

Banter season is over, mate. 

 

But it's really a shame that Ferrari are always too conceited to let their drivers take part in something fun like this.

[nudge]

Yeah, Ferrari are a bit of party poopers. 

[Tommy]

Well, there you go:

So people get upset about this now:

 

Talk about snowflakes.. 

[nudge]

Well, that's rich coming from Hamilton, considering he dresses as a princess most of the time 

[Tommy]

Haha, that moment with Kimi and Nicole Kidman

Heh, I did not see that coming. Not a bad gig at all. Seb must be thrilled.

He's going to improve the structural integrity of the chasis against impacts from the side and from behind.

Kimi's instagram is everything I ever wanted in life.

Kubica will be their reserve and development driver.

So Williams couldn't say no to Russian money. However, I remember reading a while ago that Sirotkin's times weren't worse than Kubica's ones in testing, and some sources even claim he was actually quicker. Not sure if it's just a load of blah blah in order not to look like greedy bastards though.

[Tommy]

Sirotkin has a rather decent past as a driver in the lower categories as well. People shouldn't judge him based on the money. Kubica offered money for the seat too. 

[nudge]

He was development driver for Renault last season, wasn't he? Anyway, I think it's very sad to see what Williams has become. That reminds me I still need to watch that new documentary about them, supposed to be good.
