- 1.6L turbo V6s
- ERS
- 100kg fuel limit
- 8spd gearboxes
- 5 engines per season for each driver
- double points at the last race.

Youtube clips are about as useful to me as a miniskirt in Iran.

First they have to get him into the simulator. Kimi has said before that he doesn't have much use for them. Stefano Domenicali's response was something like "We don't care what he does [HTML_REMOVED] doesn't like. He will do it".

760HP (600HP from Engine and 160HP from ERS). No more growl from the NA engines. Just the deafening sound of blow off valves as drivers downshift with 15000 RPM at 3.5 bar of boost.

I don't think there's any fear of Ferrari not having the funds to pay him.

Nothing sums up my life's achievements like my stuffed corpse, suplexing a cougar.

Well they had to finish the race (without blowing up) with the fuel they started with…

I'm not fussed either way. It's the worst racing in motorsport.

Porsche V's Audi V's Toyota in LMP1 is what I want to see.
