You see Haas is replacing Gutierrez with Magnussen next year? Grosjean/Magnussen could be pretty exciting

Yea they should be even better next year with that lineup. If they could just get a main sponsor they'd be all set.

Hamilton might not win the Championship but now he's second all-time in F1 wins.

Sounded like Hamilton was just cruising around slowly with that lead.

Sounded interesting to ignore the team orders and back Rosberg up into the pack forcing him to either race it out or deal with others passing him. Avoiding a crash in both circumstances.

In the upcoming offseason I'm hoping Grosjean makes an appearance at Haas HQ. I'll definitely head up for that, it's only about 3 hours away from me.

Considering they signed a new driver they'll probably have an event at some point.

Time to read up on the 2017 rule changes, the cars/tires are supposed to be wider and lower.

Well that was surprising. I guess Hamilton will be the heavy favorite next year.

The race in Baku last weekend was easily the best all year, and still the Moto GP matched it step by step. A great weekend for racing.

Hungarian Gp this weekend. I don't like the new cars. They are fast, but there are too few chances of passing another driver with these large cars. They have to do something about that. Still it's been a good sesson. I hope Mercedes and Hamilton doesn't run away with it, that would be the worst thing that could happen.

Very interesting qualifying with Ferrari on 1st and 2nd. Great seeing both McLarens in q3.

what happened yesterday? It looked like they didn't get the left rear secured before they dropped the jack.

Both drivers had a cross thread on a tire change. Both had to retire early. Both seemed to be one guy's fault
