First test days are what I'm looking forward to. Just want them all to close the gap on Mercedes.
Of course I'm dreaming. RBR or Ferrari might.
Got a tip for us?

That's cool.
I know that's gonna happen so i just wanna see which car is the prettiest.
By the way Williams, Renault, and Red Bull all tied for the 2016 PCWC*.
PCWC - Prettiest Car World Championship. A title decided by @pachyderm. @pachyderm heads the PCWC governing body and nobody else is allowed to have an opinion. He tutored under fomer FIA boss Bernie Echelstone**.

As I stated earlier, I want to see Mercedes do big things. However, I do want to see the likes of Red Bull (Ricciardo) do well, and really give us some close/tight racing. I don't want to see any team just 'drive away with it', that's boring.
Sort of like when bloody Man Utd. would win the league back-to-back all the time, boring, as well as depressing ;(

I think another season with a single dominant team will be really damaging for F1. Fingers crossed the new regulations level the playing field a little and we see at least 3-4 teams potentially fighting for the win, rather than 2-3 fighting for 3rd place.
I tend to think another year of Mercedes dominance will likely be bad for the sport, overall. Red Bull would still be kind of bad but not as bad as Mercedes. I feel like Ferrari winning would be exciting for a year and then get old fast.
You're right.
It ain't gonna happen, but you're right.
For the best thing to happen would be for McClaren/Honda or Williams to up their game.
But it ain't gonna happen.

No please no. Looks like Ferrari crashed into a Williams.this?
hideous.
Surely that can't be the new McLaren. I don't see how the simple front wing and smashed rear wing comport with "improved aero".
Alas that is a Marlboro-specific color scheme and with tobacco advertising no longer allowed in Formula One, we'll never see the likes of it again...
they looked like this for a good bit too..
as per your last post, true. that red and white livery was iconic for them and indy car's team penske.

I've seen an article or two regarding the new cars and their new aero and tires etc. Supposed to take corners almost flat out. Supposedly they will sound better too. One observation that I didn't like was that these new wide tires and width of the cars will make passing difficult which is the last thing that F1 needs. More passing, less parade. Doesn't F1 get it? Ideally I'd like to see 5 teams that could win every week but don't think that will happen. I'm interested in how Bottas and Hamilton get on but if it's another Mercedes blowout I'm gonna pass.
