I'm not a big Schumacher fan nor a Ferrari fan, just an F1 fan, but it would be amazing to go see this.

Bryan Brophy, who was born in Dublin on September 9th, 1949, became the first (and so far, only) Irishman to be appointed an FIA steward for F1 World Championship races.

I predict that Bottas won't last the whole season at Mercedes. I think he will be gone before the summer break.

I had a dream last night that Rosberg will be announced as replacing Hamilton when Mercedes don't win next year. Hamilton will retire when Mercedes stop winning and Rosberg would be happy to race in F1 if Hamilton wasn't around, especially against a junior partner instead of an equal.

I assumed it was Ferrari winning but with the new aero to gain an advantage from and the 50 horsepower boost and reliability RBR are getting from switching to Honda from Renault they could be in with a chance.

I reckon if he is asked to move over once or twice he could walk away.

Seemed very demotivated at end of last season

He'd be a bit mad to walk away, they could buy him out though. Pretty much the end of his career in a front running team too, and possibly full stop.

I don't think he would walk. He would probably reach an agreement with Mercedes before parting ways.

If he leaves F1, I think he will end up in FE or WEC.

I can't see Hamilton retiring as long as he has a competitive car or if Ferrari have one and he has a chance to go there.

I never was a fan, too grumpy and rarely gave interviews. Interviews is part and parcel of the media aspect which a fan needs to enjoy the sport to the fullest.

What aspect did she like about him?

Vettel dislikes the simulator and with Giovinazzi and Kvyat moving on they are now expected to add two more drivers to fulfill simulator duties. Hartley and Sirotkin are the favourites and they are no longer considering Wehrlein.

And Wehrlein joins Ferrari as Development driver a few hours later :pac:

McLaren have appointed German Andreas Seidl as the new boss of their struggling Formula 1 team.

Seidl's recruitment in the new role of managing director is the latest in a series of management changes aimed at making McLaren competitive again.

The 46-year-old, ex-boss of Porsche's World Endurance Championship team, will join "during 2019", reporting to chief executive officer Zak Brown.
