Decision: No Further Action.
Reason: Car 5 had a puncture at turn 1 and lost the rubber of the tyre at turn 13. After reviewing
the video footage the stewards agreed with the driver’s reason for leaving the track.

It's illegal to change gear ratios in season for "cost cutting purposes".
Think about how much a gear costs and how fucking retarded that rule is.

A single gear might not be much but you have to test out all kinds of crazy ratios in order to get the most out of every race weekend. As far as costs are concerned, it's not a concern. It's more an attempt to make the racing itself more "interesting".

I recognize that its another misguided effort to make the racing not suck, but it is to be noted that the official reason is to cut costs.

It's sounded like that for a while now. They previously claimed that they were waiting for Renault to sign a driver, but now they've chosen jolyon for his experience and money. Rumored that Magnussen is linked to a reserve seat and that saxo bank will become title sponsor if that happens. Looks like Renault deal is less likely by the minute.

Finally got to watch the race.
Already had flashes of finland-loses.jpg after the Episode IV: Valtteri strikes back meme battle of him and gimmick but at least one got to the podium. Meme master is really sad sight as of late (not even so late) tbh
Vetlel had such a messy and weird race.
Track looked nice and crowd was amazing, which made the mediocre race better.
Hamilton was subtly dick after the race. I wish he would've gone full choco senna and refuse to pit when mercs got worried about the tyres to get some drama.

Although the most surprising event was Crofty being able to make some good banter, when they followed Ricciardo passing someone with Horner and Brundle said: "I thought you'd cheer and dance" And Horner said: "My name is not Arrivabene" to which Crofty replied: "If it was you'd have sorted out those engines already."

Renault too egotistical to allow Ilmor to fix their engine

>"I think collaboration is good,” Abiteboul told Motorsport.com. “It is good to work with people outside, because there is no way you can improve inside if you do not put yourself in competition but also in partnership with people that are outside.
