So I think we'll just keep bumping this thread until 2015 with any F1 news and in January get a new thread started for the new season. Sound good? Works for me.....I always miss what goes on during the off season.

It's going to be a massive heaping hill of bullshit if Jenson Button isn't driving for McLaren next year. Of course, my gut is telling me they will be much worse off next year with Honda power. It'd be hilarious if Lotus can have a resurgence like Williams did this year and routinely beats Woking's best.

Webber is out of hospital
UPDATE 1-12-2014 Mark spent the night in a local hospital in São Paulo where he underwent further checks. He sustained bruising and concussion in the accident he suffered in Sunday’s six-hour race. "I’m quite sore this morning and am pretty bruised and have got a stinking headache,” Mark said earlier today. "I’ve got no recollection of the accident or how it happened – the team is looking into the details to find out more. "Thanks to the medical team at the track and here at the hospital who did a great job and are looking after me very well. On a positive note it’s great that the boys in car no. 14 managed to bring home the victory which is a fantastic way to finish off the season. I’m already looking forward to getting out there again next year.” Mark is still under care at the hospital but is set to return to the UK later this week. UPDATE 1-12-2014 Porsche states that Mark Webber has been released from hospital Yesterday I was a lucky boy. The correct angle of impact saved me. Thanks everybody for your incredible messages and support. #recovering?? — Mark Webber (@AussieGrit) December 1, 2014 |

I wonder if the crash makes Nico Hulkenberg nervous or if Webber being okay makes him more confident? Hulk is racing a 3rd car at Spa and Le Mans for Porsche. |

So....today is the day that McLaren's board meets to decide the driver lineup.
Not sure how I feel about the options. Boot the rookie (again), dump the expensive experience or get crazy and promote Vandoorne. |

McLarens driver question boils down to what do they want for 2015...if they want to finish higher than 5th its Alonso/Button.
If they are willing to write it off as a development year then it will be Alonso/Magnussen or the wildcard Alonso/Vandoorne although the FIA might have squashed that with the super license age change. Magnussen had a couple flashes early in the season but I didn't see consistent quickness that justified the number of times the car came in on a hook. I realize to many Button is old and stale, but he brings it home in the points....which is what Honda needs. edit bloody wankers: 'i can't decide' |

JUST KEEP BUTTON. No offense to KMag, he's a great guy and a good driver, but Button is a world champion. Just 1 more season in a contending car for JB. There is quite a bit going on in the background. From Joe Seward: My feeling is that the decision is probably now tied to the question of who owns the team in six weeks time. Ron Dennis is busy raising money to buy shares belonging to his partners. There is a deadline. If he is successful he will become the majority shareholder and will do as he pleases, if he is not successful there will be changes at the top of the group. The drivers will just have to wait to see what happens. The fans too… There was also a report than Dennis paid a 30 million pound penalty to extend his options out six weeks (which should have ended on Dec 1). |

I dunno, from a team perspective, the idea of two old farts in a team (Damn, I just called JB and Fernando old farts, but they are in regards to F1 ) frankly scares me.. either one of them could hang it up and go drive sports cars or endurance cars a lot easier than a young driver. And with the young drivers being so good (Look at Ricciardo and Bottas this year) why pay ridiculous money for an older driver.I think RBR got it right, with Seb gone, they can invest even more money into the cars and make themselves a force to be reckoned with, and both of those young guys are 'good enough' to take on and beat the oldsters if they are in the right car.
