I'm thinking there is a game going on with Ferrari, they signed Vettel before Alonso had committed to leave. So now what if Alonso wants to stay, they are still under contract for next season. Ferrari may end up owing Alonso money.

It's possible that Alonso really wants to stay at Ferrari; he needs a sign from them that the car will be competitive next year and he's giving them all the time possible to get a grip on the car.

Either that or the plan is to give Kimi another bucket of cash.

if I were kimi, id take it !

Please let it be Hamilton.. just for the absolute, balls out, no holds barred, winner take all fight in Abu Dhabi... it MIGHT make the most boring race of the year interesting.

I don't care who wins though, they both deserve it at this point.

Sounds like he made a mistake in his last run, P3.

Rosberg on pole by 1/100 and he wins the Pole Position Trophy for the year. Good for him.

He probably did but it was a good drive.

a Rosberg win here would be great.

I like Sunny D and the cheapest champagne possible. It doesn't deserve to be called a mimosa, so I call it Hangover Sunshine.

Ted just said there is some crazy news coming. 3 car teams and other nonsense.

No link yet, will post when I can.

EDIT: Here's the times article link. Can't read it without a subscription, but the first few lines are pretty serious.

Formula One was on the brink just hours before the Brazilian Grand Prix as the three teams facing financial extinction were effectively told they could go.

Instead, Ferrari and Red Bull have been given the go-ahead to run a third car each next season in place of the bankrupt Marussia team and Caterham.

So fucking stupid. Did they not learn a lesson from MotoGP? They kept letting costs run until there were like 14 bikes on the grid. IndyCar needs to get their shit together so there is some decent open wheel to watch. Though, I'm not holding my breathe.

For the championship to become an all or nothing, winner takes all in Abu Dhabi, this needs to happen:

ROS 1st, HAM 4th or lower

ROS 2nd, HAM 7th or lower

ROS 3rd, HAM 8th or lower

ROS 4th, HAM 10th or lower

Alonso to Red Bull with Ricciardo and Kvyat?

Jenson Button to one of those teams?

I think the real question is, how long has Alonso known?

Actually... that could make sense. Maybe that is why Alonso hasn't announced anything. If the 3 car teams happen, that line up could, and even maybe would happen

Could FA have made a deal where if there is a 3 car team, he stays, but if it is 2, he leaves?

“They get too much now. They shouldn’t spend so much," F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone told Sky Sports F1.

He needs to go. Seriously.

Almost parade lap time. Sutil is starting from the pit lane due to car troubles.

Top off your coffee or water or beverage, get your bathroom break in, let's go racing.

I think there's an outside chance that a Williams could reach 2nd or even 1st on the podium if the Merc boys get too aggressive or decide to play it safe just to bring home maximum points with minimal risk to take the race to Abu Dhouble.

Massa speeding in the pits has a stop and go.

Self-sabotage and probably will cost him a podium.

It's typically NBC Sports, but depending on scheduling it can be on any channel in the NBC family. Often Canada and USGP are on local NBC channel.

These days I just watch SkyF1.
