    I mentioned that they were increasing manufacturer teams. That's why I think points to 12 isn't a bad idea.

    It gives the smaller independent teams some reward for their investment.

    And it should be hard.
    Ya I highly doubt that getting a point will deter teams from trying to improve or compete.
    If there are going g to be more manufacturer teams with Audi and possibly Andretti, then the smaller indy teams will have a harder time getring points and they won't get any FIA prize money which means they won't have as much to compete with.
    Trying to find major sponsors when you are almost guaranteed to finish near the backend is not very easy.
    Really it makes no difference to the top 5 teams anyways, they'll finish in the points almost every time.

    I doubt HP are going to request a livery change like in the past with BMW and JPM as their driver.
    It's not how start but how you finish.

    And I'm reading that from 2025 Ferrari will have a title sponsor. It should be HP (Hewlett-Packard), who will be brought in to compensate for the money spent for Hamilton's wage.

    Or maybe the livery change to blue could be because of the new sponsor HP.......interesting.

    I personally think Ferrari will get their money back and then some just selling Ferrari 44 caps and t-shirts and whatever else merchandise comes with the number 44.

    So 2023 started off bad, but managed to claw back some lap time come end of the year. Lets hope SF24 will give us tifosi something to smile about.

    Nah. The blue is to celebrate its anniversary in America.

    I think they changed the livery last year as well.

    Which part?

    1) Ferrari having a new sponsor HP?
    2) Ferrari painting the car blue because of the new sponsor?
    3) Ferrari painting the car to tribute 60years NART?
    4) or all of the above?

    Was the brand name "Marlboro" really officially part of the team name?
    "If I was driving for Red Bull [from 2008] probably I would have more championships, but because they were dominating between 2010 and 2014 probably I would never have driven for Ferrari. I am very happy and very proud to drive for Ferrari, all my time there.

    Much of the rest of the world outside of F1 is upside down too!? Welcome to absurd times.

    I like them the way they are now, behind us. More likeable than they ever were under Ron Pennis.

    McLaren are behind us now, but they've made some good strides to be competitive again.

    Far cry from the McLarens with the GP2 engines.

    Ferrari needs some updates (grades) to keep and extend our lead on them. Can't be complacent.

    I have all faith in the team Fred is building and I am sure come Imola we're in for some good times.
