Yeah, I'm seeing news that all 200 team staff have been fired, close to Christmas as well. Very sad newsApparently Marussia have folded completely and won't be back at all. Not unexpected but still not great news.

Nope.Anyone watching?
The new surface is releasing a lot of oil so Pirelli have said if it rains it could be very tricky.I think they were only 2.15 million away at last count...as for this race, I'm praying for rain but in resurfacing the track they've incorporated grooves into the tarmac to combat the rivers so it probably won't do much. Guessing everyone hoping for Massa to win.
Yessss please rain!! Still unsure if I'm going to get up to watch this one though.The new surface is releasing a lot of oil so Pirelli have said if it rains it could be very tricky.
Caterham have launched a crowd funding type effort to raise £2.3M to race at Abu Dhabi. .
Do they have any fans to make that sort of money ?
They want to raise £2.3M to trundle around at the back of one GP and then go back into non-existence. It's pathetic. Think about what that kind of money could do elsewhere.Given that they've raised just over 600K I doubt it. But if you want to donate then https://www.crowdcube.com/caterham/ is the place to go.
Hamilton is faster I reckon but he's fluffed a s**t ton of Q3 laps this year.Season qualifying results so far.
Rosberg - 11
Hamilton - 7
What was this **** about Hamilton being the fastest driver/qualifier, an accepted notion before this season?
Nope.
I partially disagree. I don't mind the concept of fans directly supporting a team, however I agree that this particular situation is ridiculous.They want to raise £2.3M to trundle around at the back of one GP and then go back into non-existence.

If a team wanted to be publicly listed like the Green Bay Packers, I'm absolutely on board. However this is "give us your money for one race. We're not telling you how we'll use it and we'll probably be gone afterwards".I partially disagree.

The sport makes ******* billions pimping itself out to soulless, oil rich shitholes and it's ridiculous that a team should have to ask for money.
Eh, it happens to an extent in the AFL with the franchise teams. The whole situation with F1 atm is ****ed.If a team wanted to be publicly listed like the Green Bay Packers, I'm absolutely on board.

If he didn't fluff them, then he'd be slower.Hamilton is faster I reckon but he's fluffed a s**t ton of Q3 laps this year.
