2013 Formula One Discussion
Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
It'd be a shame because I think he's driven brilliantly this season, especially considering his age. I mean a shame because whoever replaces him - and we're talking hypothetically of course - will be a pay driver. Probably Chinese Martin.
Meanwhile, I wish Joe wouldn't sit on the fence with his opinions

Something interesting in the comments section is this...
Comment: Red Bull bought moribund Jaguar and look at the result. An article was published today about Coca-Cola entering F1 under an energy-drink banner. You can see where I’m going. “Not a chance in hell” on that too?
Joe Saward: Let’s talk in a day or two
Joe knows something. But which team. Rumours say Mercedes but I'm not too sure.

Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
I think it is. And it'll be marketed by Coca Cola through the burn energy drink, which they own.
Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
The first time I heard the Coca Cola rumour, it was linked with McLaren as vodafone want to go to Ferrari completely.
Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
Ah yes, Maria.
Oh, and with Coca Cola... could it be Chelsea/Sauber's big sponsor deal they're set to announce soon..?

Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
Yeah I reckon that's most likely.
Joe says other teams will be 'scurrying off to their local soccer teams' to do a similar deal. Hope not...

Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
Heard about the Coca Cola rumors, but what has the Chelsea/Sauber deal got to do with it? Aren't they sponsors of each other already, which "deal" are you referring to?phil1993 wrote:Ah yes, Maria.

Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
Chelsea and Sauber are partners. They're set to announce a joint deal with a sponsor, which with all of the rumours, I believe could be Coca-Cola under the 'burn' guise.
Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
Looks certain to be Coca Cola; they've had ties with Chelsea for a while now...

Confirmed, the Coca-Cola [Burn] deal is with Lotus.

Well that's a good news. AMuS said few days ago the financial situation is not good inside the team.donald29 wrote:Confirmed, the Coca-Cola [Burn] deal is with Lotus.

Surely doesn't sound like a title sponsorship to me, though.donald29 wrote:Confirmed, the Coca-Cola [Burn] deal is with Lotus.

That's a pattern with big names joining F1 in recent years, they opt for rather small sponsorship deals rather than choosing a title sponsorship.
Microsoft at Lotus, GE at Caterham and now Coca-Cola with Lotus. It's understandable though with the economy stagnating (at best) since 2008.
Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
Great!!! But would have been better with Battery (FI) or Relentless (UK). They fit better in the Lotus livery!
I assume that in 2014 it will be: Red Bull Racing, Ferrari, Monster Energy Racing (mercedes amg) and Burn racing (Lotus) at the top.

Re: 2013 Formula One Discussion
Burn Day, the energy drink is popular in sweden, new zealand and Finland apparently.
personally, I wish the UK got more energy drinks. I love Monster Ripper; great with Jaegermeister! But in America, theres Monster red, purple. Rockstar has quite a few nice flavours like the Pommegranite and Blueberry mix, but they have over 20 flavours like black grape and stuff.
Relentless has butchered their drinks. Coca-Cola has a done a right good job making them taste horrible. 'refreshing new taste' my arse!, theyve took all the fruitiness out by removing 20% of the juice out of it. Ridiculous.

Lewis Hamilton says he's leaving home [McLaren] and 'just going travelling.' Endearing himself to Mercedes already.
