    HAAS drags a problem through the season. The heat of the Ferrari V6 turbo affects the hydraulic fluid in the rear of the car. And that leads to changes in the ground clearance that disrupt the aerodynamics.

    Odd that they don't show the DRS end point. I assume it is Tamburello?

    It's up to the driver's discretion.

    I think those horrible monkey trophies were made by Bernie Ecclestone's ex wife Slavica's toyboy -she got the Paul Ricard circuit as part of the divorce settlement- and I am not sure he is French. I doubt a Frenchman could have such tres bad taste:D

    No idea, I liked Petra his youngest daughter for her looks -only- but she married the wrong guy and had a horrible divorce. What I just discovered in the last few days is that apart of her and the even more mediatized Tamara there is a third older daughter, Deborah, very discreet in comparison from Bernie's first of three wives.

    And they're just figuring this out now? Why do I think that this cutting the weekend down to two days is part of F1's looking for ways to cut cost next season. Two day tickets at 4 day prices, with 30% less expenses. Add a few more countries to the schedule with more back to back weekends...make it more like baseball...lots and lots of games.

    I think the 2-day GP weekend is tested at the suggestion of the teams.
    First, some drivers have complained there is too much practice time.
    Second, one day later at the track give more rest time for the staff between races
    Third, it saves on engine hours.
