anyone see the new, very expensive Honda “earth” livery’s (cars) which can’t beat the old models???

btw: “Formula One may downsize”....that’s why they are going from 17 races per season to 20....fine by me :)

Huge fan here, been watching for 15 plus years. I’m on the fence concerning this. I like the newest technology that F1 showcases year after year, but I’m afraid that unless more teams with money get involved NOW, they won’t be able to compete with Ferrari and McLaren/Mercedes and to a lesser extent, Renault and BMW. The learning curve is HUGE in this sport, and with the technology being as hi-tech as it is, I think this move is phasing out current (and pre-phasing out future) teams that could compete (or at least participate) with a more basic platform. (N/A, rear wheel drive, etc.) And the best thing about F1 IS THE NOISE!!!!!!!!!!! 19K revs is heavenly IMHO. Miss the V-12’s and V-10’s.
