Happy birthday, Vicki!!! We indeed miss you. Have a great day

I'd be in agreement if Fernando was not in as a good driving shape as he (or we believe) is. That'd be an option for in about three to five years. But let's not forget about Kimi after one of his worst seasons. Is he staying in Ferrari? Would it make sense Fernando and Vettel driving for Ferrari?

Rumors are placing him in McLaren-Honda, but only if he could get a 1 year compromise, so he could go to Mercedes when Hamilton's contract is over. Otherwise he'd get a sabbatical, which OTOH doesn't seem a great idea. My guts guess is that Mercedes is going to manage pissing Hamilton and he'd leave right this very season back to McLaren. No rational cues to think that. We'll see, Mercedes just assured the constructors title and probably that one of his pilots wins the drivers', so why not making a German driver to win it.

I had never seen a "prime minister", "president" or whatever Putin wants to call himself going into the F1 premises to talk to the drivers while they are weighing and drinking. Nor needing an interpreter We have 3 races left, many things may happen yet.

Oh, so great guys deserve hawt women?

Yup, the B22 pairs very well with the LCD-2, effortless slamming sound. Surprisingly (for the bright part of its sound) with the Grados pairs very well too. And with the Fostex T30 too, OMG!

Great! Good luck on both terms, the reliable realtor and the nice first house.

A reliable one? Lucky you!

Condolences, Todd. I'm sorry for your loss.

Damn

You're probably right in all the Red Bull stuff going on. I always saw them as a part of a different business, and I'm still pretty dubious about them playing fair on all that superiority their cars had. But that's history now. Over here some "experts" say that what Alonso wants is going to Mercedes, and he might take a sabbatical to let Hamilton's contract due. They base this on the fact that Alonso is at his prime and wants a winning car right now. The only team offering that in one or two seasons is Mercedes unless there's a huge rules change again. The fact is that he still hasn't resigned from Ferrari, nor Ferrari has signed a contract with Vettel. Fernando might fuck Ferrari quite a bit if he refused to go and wanted to let his contract finish to its end after next season. Today's was a weird race even for Suzuka. It's a shame what happened to Bianchi, I wish he makes it. What a case of bad luck

I thought the drivers were dust protected by a fine layer of plastic film, so it can't reach the thin space between stator and diaphragm. Reading how it was solved looks like dust outside the driver components can cause the squeal too. Live to learn

What produces that, Birgir?

We have a say "second parts never ever were good" (segundas partes nunca fueron buenas) which would apply if Fernando goes back to McLaren/Honda with Ron Dennis fookin' around. Moreover I don't have a clue if Honda is making an engine any better than Mercedes, but to make a winner car from current McLaren this must be a hell of an engine. For Fernando the best outcome would be that Hamilton got pissed with Mercedes--if they clearly favor Rosberg to make the championship-- and he went back to McLaren leaving his seat at Mercedes free. Almost impossible. I'm not aware of Kvyat's potential. I see his promotion more as a marketing move to increase Red Bull drinks sales in the Russian market, which is a big one.
