Yep, Vodafone isn't sponsoring McLaren in 2014 anymore. Lady presenters would definitely be nice. :D

No real suprises in the first FP really, McLaren seemed a bit low but maybe just a one off? FP2 in 2 hours, time to grab some more caffeine!

on the radio earlier in the eve they were saying mclaren aren't really there,Vodafone is quite a big brit company isn't it,they're going to need big sponsors,i could see mclaren slipping to a mid team if they are not careful,mercedes ahve got half their staff now

McLaren got Sergio Perez and Telmex has been supporting his career for a long time. I expect Telmex (or Telcel, or any other company owned by Carlos Slim) to sponsor McLaren when Vodafone leaves. If that happens money won't be an issue. However lack of talented engineers and a good engine can. We've seen lots of teams with tons of $$$ doing nothing.

I say engine because in 2014 the rules that ban engine evolution will be gone. I won't be surprised if teams that get their engines from manufacturers that have their own team end up getting worse engines or evolutions later.

Also Mercedes true target is to win the championship in 2014 with their own team, taking advantage of the rule changes (so 2013 is too early for them). Combine this with Ferrari still having one and a half drivers and you know where my Red Bull winning the constructors championship this year prediction comes from.


yes good point,perez should bring in the cash,are you going to predict

@zump,plenty of money in brasil no doubt about that and they love formula 1 so no problem selling tickets i'm sure

so that was a wash out then,got up very early,qualy is at midnight gmt they said so make sure you get a prediciton in if you are going to be asleep and not know before the race,i will close up about just before the race when i get up to watch,

and please predict if you want to play and are lurking,there is a long way to go so you can still join if you miss this race
