Aston is cooked

[Bridger]

I'm a big Honda fan. I suspect Aston will not have a good start to the season. However, I think a Honda Newey combo will deliver something. Newey knows Honda. I can't imagine that Aston has a Honda is a coincidence.

Probably means I will be watching much less of it again.......

More of a click bait article to advertise the Netflix series than anything else ( and yes I did fall for the clicking on it bit) feel the bbc has gone downhill with their online reporting recently especially with sports coverage

Has Leclerc scored a sample pair of IH-684S-16-GER?

They seem to be fading fast in an interesting pattern.

@Bridger James Hunt they are not eh?

[Bridger]

Ha, @DeeDee85, well said!

If Drive to Survive was around back in Hunt's time it would have been far more racy!

[DeeDee85]

@Bridger would have been a must watch for me

There's an interesting dynamic there. It seems like their vibration/performance issues are transmission related, so i'm sure once they resolve that, they'll have a huge jump in performance.

Another interesting thing is the RBPT/Ford is probably more Honda than Ford actually, from what I've read. Seeing as Ford has apparently hugely overstated their involvement in the PU's development, with RB building on their knowledge from their previous partnership with Honda.

we're back! and for the love of the fire horse lunar year. I hope this is Ferrari's year!

[goosehd]

Definitely not Aston Martin’s…

[Bridger]

@WhiskeySandwich that's interesting insight.

I wonder if any of the Honda engineers from the RB days have stuck around with Ford.

Good shout @louisbosco

I would love Lewis to pick up a few wins this season and or finish top three in the driver's championship
