What are your thoughts on the impact it might have?

I expect Red Bull and Ferrari to be closer to the front this time with both the RB10 and the F14 T favoring fairly high-speed corners. That said, the usual upgrade packages might have an unusually big impact this time due to the steep development curve under the new regulations. Remember how Ferrari...

Was that really 7 years ago all that happened? Time flies.

Daniel better than Vettel, Alonso destroying Kimi, crazy world.

It's rather unfortunate that his performance dropped after the accident. Thinking he nearly became the 2008 world champion. Never forget.

I think it´s a done deal at this point, if it is on AMuS they can just as well announce it already. I do wonder if there is any truth to the report that Alonso will go to Lotus with Santander. If Renault buys a big stake at Lotus (as rumored) and Alonso is informed of that, would it really be a dumb...

I can't believe this has finally been decided. I've felt since Webber has announced his moving on this has dragged on.

Kimi is the next big piece of the puzzle and everything should fall into place after that.

Massa says it was wrong Grosjean was penalised for the overtake. A refreshing view from a driver (compare to whiny Button and Alonso), but sadly the line is the line and Grosjean was over it. I can't believe that penalty for Massa. If he kept the wheels on the circuit he probably would have collide...

Possible date: 3-6 July

They gave a date of July 6, 2014 occupying the spot formerly taken by Valencia, as well as the spot they occupied as the A1-Ring from 1998-2000.

If Seb leaves in a year or two, than it would probably be better that they sign Kimi to have an experience driver in the team. But than again he doesn't like to do simulator work, which RB want their drivers to do.

Felipe looks a shadow of the driver that we saw from 2006 to 2009. He's had a life-threatening injury and then in his comeback phase had a teammate take away any say in the team he had before.

Ricciardo caught in the gravel trap just minutes after starting his session with the Red Bull.

It's the public prosecution department of Munich in Bavaria. They're known for their harsh and rigid treatment against suspects. Good luck on this one, Ecclestone.

Everyone said exactly the same thing about Kimi Raikkonen. He was older, sure, but even less experienced as he'd only raced for a season in the Formula Renault 2.0. Of course no one knew that Kimi would turn out how he did, so how can we be sure Sirotkin won't do something similar? He's already show...

That's a big blow for guys like Ted Kravitz who have been reporting from the pitlane during all sessions for literally decades. Wonder if they've had any near misses? I'd assume that with a certain amount of experience, these guys know how to do avoid putting themselves in dangerous positions while...
