I hope Renault is charging them triple the price. Fuckers.

Homework for Red Bull, to be completed before Montreal.
Practice those fucking pit-stops. Terrible.

Redbull is going to end up 2nd in the WCC this season. Which is f*cking brilliant.
If only Williams can get their sh!t together or Force India gets a decent budget to work with and drop Ferrari down even lower.

With Horner taking the blame for screwing Ricc, would be cool to see Horner on the STR pitwall next race with the STR guy going the other way It would be good PR for Red Bull

The amount of rake in the Red Bull is really incredible, it's always been one of the hallmarks of the Newey RB era, it's interesting that Hamilton made some comment post race that they simply couldn't put as much DF on the car as Red Bull could. Couple of things you can clearly see in this picture is the rake, but I hadn't even paid attention to the lack of monkey seat and the rear wing difference, they simply don't need as much rear wing as Mercedes to get that additional DF.

That's an awesome pic. But is that rake though? Or just the underbody with the plank jutting out a bit more than the Merc?
I think the RB was on par with Merc that weekend, or very slightly slower. Lewis didn't have a proper shot at Q3. And Merc looked slower in the race since Lewis had to do the catchup and wet tyre gambling, and later they weren't on equal tyres so it was hard to judge.
Though I await Canada with bated breath. Brakes, brakes, brakes.

Here's a little commentary from Paddy about where he thinks Reb Bull are. Convergence from having the rules sit would have been a very inexpensive and very reasonable projected and stable regulation. Let's see where 2017 shakes up things but I suspect that we'll see Red Bull and Mercedes still up front. Renault... erm, I mean TAG has made quite a bit of progress with their PUs.

Good for her. Monti, that's nice. Though I don't know why a child needs so many names.

When you grow up on sims... Interesting, Makes me think I could have a tiny chance against Max in a V8SC. Always interests me with the right foot brake method to the left foot brake in SCs. I think there is only 2 left foot brakers in SCs now days. Left foot Right foot

Encouraging to read about the future engine and chassis upgrades for RB, but to think they could be ahead of the top 2 by Austria... not too sure about that.

A year off designing sail boats and it looks like Newey forgot all about how to design an F1 car. Hopefully this Mark II car will be better. They say you learn more from your mistakes. Let's see.

So unlike Red Bull, hopefully this "new car" can close the gap.

So more bad news (week old news) for Red Bull, Renault have said there will be no PU upgrade for 2017 at all now which sucks, well... for me anyway, Was really excited for the 2nd half of the season but reading that story has just taken all the air out of my tyres.
Think Red Bull will now go winless 2017.

Remember all the people screaming murder that token and no in season engine development were killing competition? I do feel bad, for Daniel and Max, just as much as I do for Nico. At this point, you just have to wait until 2018.

The frustration level of Dan and Max is quite telling and will only heighten during this year and next year too I feel. If they want to be WDC, its not going to happen at RB, They'll have to somehow get a seat in a silver or red car after 2018 is done, even the Mclaren-Mercedes could be quite handy by then.

Renault seem quite optimistic about their PU for next year, but then again they accepted that 2017 was a building year with no pressure or expectations.
