My friends,you may have spotted the new design concept on Max's RB16 nose cone.
So new is the part that his car is fitted with it with just one spare. Alex understands and agreed it should be on Max's car and will wait until the next Austrian race to receive his and it shows there is little time for lunch breaks in the RB Newey camp.

SO well done -
Saw this contour gauge recently and it would really be handy for exacting cuts!

Hot news!! Hamilton handed 3 place grid after all
That means Max and Alex are 2nd and 4th on grid.

Yes my friend . Horner should say to Alex now : "Push on that brake pedal during the start procedure" !

Make it spin ...Is also good !

Alonso in Renault.

Was always a dead cert on the cards my friends, he won two world championships for them and goodness F1 needs a massive shake up to get it out of the doldrums with what's happening, no room for a timid youngster there.

Saw this online the other day - this is certainly big news; very concerned that someone as capable as RIC and the Renault was not very competitive last weekend....unsure if ALO piloting the Renault could place it at the sharp end of the grid

Alonso can get more out of a car than cruiser Ricciardo who is more preoccupied now with politics.

He's got a job on his hands watching the wayward car of Ricciardo yesterday but I think Fernie is the the best option to sort the car with the new regulations coming for all cars.

Just come back from the dump, took all the old flooring and underlay in the M,it's like an estate car when the back seats are folded, filled it up quite well together with 3 old oil containers from the oil change and other various unwanted stuff also.After the trip the protective sheets folded away and you wouldn't know it was used like a van!
