HAAS VF-20 broke cover early, yesterday. Glad to see the return of the old livery. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should |
I agree about the livery. Now looks like the main sponsor (and owner) instead of that bland Rich Energy look. I still don't understand how they got involved with that very weird company and owner/manager. All the warning bells were ringing well before they did the deal and not much has come out since. Maybe someday the real story will come out. Besides the sponsor issues, the performance needs to get back to where they were before too. The one lap performance was there at several races but long runs and race performance were terrible. The car clearly had something they never figured out but I'm surprised they didn't do a driver change too. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

At minimum I'm surprised Grosjean was retained. Also, I preferred the battleship gray of the VF-17. Hopefully they get a turnaround this season. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

For a half a season some years back, Grosjean was great. After last year's Netflix F1 show where everyone was laughing at him, not sure what drives him to slide behind the wheel these days. Throw in KM who seems to be the most hated by other drivers, yikes. TBH I wish them and Haas the absolute best but yeah, not feeling good about their chances.

Going to be a tossup if I will follow it with any enthusiasm this year. F1 has become as boring as a tv commercial for hemorrhoids and about as exciting as a soap opera. Lewis Hamilton this and that. It’s so predictable. Almost on par with wrestling. [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

Same here. I REALLY wish some of the younger F1 fans could see the races in full from the 80’s and 90’s. ——————————————— The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Psalm 14:1 | |||

^^ I believe one of the pay-to-watch F1 services has the archived races in full. Not sure if they have the comment, or which it would be, though. There's a few online sources streaming them as well. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Try the 60's:

^^^ again. The 60's and most of the 70's had little to no F-1 coverage. Wide World of Sports, for those that remember that far back, was the show. The races were much less competitive. Since you had to read about then weeks or months later, the reporters made it more exciting than it really was. Just much more dangerous. The 80's had dominant teams like McLaren and Williams with a 1.5-2 Second advantage on their competitors. The only thing that made it exciting was possibly a teammate or reliability of the cars. ___________________________ Avoid buying ChiCom/CCP products whenever possible. | |||

Have I missed where an hour long live-streamed show for launch is now common? Link to original video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXZCkDzHvbM You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

The Mercedes livery launch was the same. Odds are, it's only the Ferrari 2020 livery launch & not the actual 2020-spec car, which won't break cover until day 1 of testing. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

The Chinese GP has officially been "postponed" as a result of Corvid-19, the Coronavirus. | |||

In looking at the calendar, this will leave a massive gap between the April 5 Vietnam GP and the May 10 Spanish GP. It seems as if the only way it could be sandwiched back into the 2020 schedule would be between the Russian and Japanese GP, however that would require four straight weeks of races - something that has not been done for over 20 years in F1. | |||

That's a lot of missed revenue. I suspect Liberty is trying to find a way to shuffle someone back into April and hope to run China later in the year. You only have integrity once. - imprezaguy02 | |||

So, Mercedes, Ferrari & Red Bull have shown their liveries for 2020. Apart from the Ineos additions to MBZ, looks almost the same as the 2019 cars. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||
