F1

Yeah I saw it, I don't like the white color (don't get me started about the blue HP logo). I prefer the all red or red-black combinations but everyone has different taste. The Schumi era Ferrari's will always be my favourite.

Looks different (used to be the livery in the 70s), but I like it. I don't like the tons of sponsors F1 allows on cars, but that's the reality of the sport.

Max Verstappen: "This isn't Formula 1, it's Formula E on steroids. I don't enjoy driving these cars."

Early days, and it's testing after all, but Ferrari looking very promising.

So I wonder how they'll end up regressing with upgrades as usual....

Losing speed on straights due to the battery will do that to you...

Saw a video of Hulkenberg's onboard camera from Bahrain preseason tests. The battery gets drained from full to null at the start/finish straight. And then Hulk has to keep the car at higher gear to recharge the battery, while bogging the engine.

This is like some racing sim, where you have the TURBO advantage for 10 seconds. It replaces the boring DRS zones, but in reality it's not much different as concept. I expect the turbo to be applied at the straights, where DRS zones were formerly.
