I have two of my children want to join, this could be embarrassing! My 17 year old youngest son and my 21 year old daughter (who is about to start the latest series of Drive to Survive this afternoon!). I'll send them the link.....

Get them in but don’t worry as last year my son won so we are used to the young ones showing us how it’s done.

Been trying to get the 13yo girl child to jump in. She has an Xbox and only plays F123, and is obsessed with Leclerc and Ferrari...and mad that her sister's favorite (Hamilton) is joining "her" Scuderia next year...

Anyone else been watching drive to survive.

Quote of the series so far was from Guenther (as always) Down in the dumps due to HAAS performance he sees Shakera on the monitor and comes out with … Shakera, shitengine, shitcar. I have to say that while Guenther was replaced at HAAS listening to what he was saying I think he was already thinking of leaving and had enough. When he met Mattia Binotto in his wine yard in the Dolomites you could really hear he was thinking about packing it in. I know he had some tough seasons but F1 has lost a great character which let’s face it there are not many and they need more.

It all starts this weekend so final reminder to get your team entries in. Don't forget race is on Saturday and as always race predictions need to be in before Quali starts on Friday.

Schedule below

The best drivers get the best cars, same goes for team principals.

Apparently Guenther was going to bring a 20 million pound sponsor to the team but wanted a stake in HAAS but Gene said no so he left immediately.
That's the story making the rounds. Meanwhile, seems awfully quiet re: Horner, unless I've missed something (which is more than entirely possible).

Very quiet on Horner but some of the sponsors seem to be asking for clarity. The internet seems to know the details of the complaints so Red Bull do need to get on with their process to ensure that
their investigation is completed as quickly as possible and any actions addressed.

If I was Horner I would be more concerned about what Geri will do rather than Red Bull after all the worse they can do is sack him.

Already feels like it's dragged on longer than it should have, so perhaps it's in the bargaining stage (on both fronts)...? There is still a Spice Girls army out there...

Agreed, from what I understand Horner is an employee of Red Bull he doesn't own any of the business so if he gets sacked he might get nothing maybe there is some negotiation going on.

It knows everything but like with every know all, sometimes it's knowledge is not based on fact

This seems apt ;)

Horner IS innocent! He'll stay at Red Bull.

I'm sure speculation will continue on the internet but an independent lawyer did the investigation and found nothing untoward. So there you go, let's get on with the racing.
