    Hey folks, how about some of your favorite pre-season testing moments?

      Nothing too remarkable... but I really loved the concept of a testing livery, especially those that Red Bull brought up for a few seasons! I think it was in 2018 and also in 2019 with the new Honda engine.

      Yeah some of those testing liveries were great, especially the camo ones.

    I recall Haas doing glory runs last year and the year before that.

      @@thegridgab Probably earned them a few of those smaller sponsorships you see at the bottom of the car.

      I forgot to say that Ocon got that win in Hungary a couple of years ago too

    I think Russel will win out at Mercedes. I feel like now that they know hamilton is leaving they will prioritize him over Lewis

      Never mind that Russell Lewis already beat Lewis in his first season.
      Before that Bottas was signed to be a clear second driver. So the closest comparison with a good driver from the grid was Rosberg before that. Guess who won that season…
      Lewis lost 2 out of his last 3 seasons to his teammates when not counting teammates that were signed (and/or instructed) to lose.
      Russell is the clear favourite. He can only lose when he keeps making his rookie mistakes like last season. Yes, rookie mistakes from a driver that already beat Lewis.
      The media tells us that Lewis chose to go to Ferrari. I think Wolff got rid of him. Way overpaid and the new generation is simply better, simulator trained and far better prepared than back in the old days. In order to not angry the fanbase the current storyline is presented to us.
      Remember Wolff pointing his finger at Lewis? Putting him in his place in front of the world? That was not a Wolff afraid of losing Lewis, that was a Wolff protecting the future, protecting George. Because he’s simply the more complete driver. Lewis waits for tactical calls, George leads the team. Lewis can’t exit his car, Russell is fine. Equal cars in Italy, Lewis couldn’t pass George. George hasn’t reached his full potential yet, easy call.
