In the most unsurprising news ever, Sergio Perez has left Red Bull.

Tough call for Red Bull, wonder what happens with the 40 million in personal sponsorship that he enjoys! also the biggest market for Red Bull overpriced tack was Mexico...

Maybe they will put Yuki in the seat.

Japan would be quite lucrative.

[harrybarracuda]

Well they've gone for the sheep shagger.

The new Ferrari gets unveiled on the 19th Feb, a week before Bahrain testing.

[harrybarracuda]

Well it seems all the cars are being launched simulatenously, however at 5am Thailand time.

When, where and why is it happening?

The event, which has been officially titled F1 75 Live, is being held on the evening of Tuesday February 18 from 8-10pm at one of London's most iconic entertainment venues, The O2.

In previous years, each F1 team has generally held their own individual launch event, at which they would reveal their new car livery and provide the media with opportunities to speak to the drivers and team principal.

However, to celebrate the start of F1's 75th anniversary year, a special event has been arranged that will see all the teams launch their liveries for the new season at one event, with all 20 drivers in attendance.

The event provides F1 fans with a chance to attend and the demand was spectacular as the 15,000 tickets available sold out within an hour.

How can you watch the event?

It will be shown live on Sky Sports F1 and Sky Sports Main Event from 8pm-10pm.

I can only assume your burger flipping at Goodwood led you to confuse F1 with A1, you retarded chimp.

[harrybarracuda]

Nothing really spectacular.

Nothing really spectacular.

Agreed. Best story of the week is George saying he has no intention of making up with Max. Both George and Lando will be looking to make statements in the opening race, which could be fun.

Took their time!

Which team are you going to fake support this year, burger boy?

Obviously you don't know enough about the sport to do it properly.

It's not easy this year.
Lewis, because I have from the start.
George and Lando, Brits looking strong.
Ollie, Chelmsford (Essex) boy.
Williams, could come good in 2025.
Can I support everyone, except Max?

[harrybarracuda]

Well obviously we have a whole new slew of cars this season, but Lando and George will be disappointed if they're not challenging for the title.

I think Sir Lewis is just ticking one last box before he retires, I don't have any faith that Ferrari can put a car or a pit together good enough to win either title.

[Shutree]

Sir Lewis is out testing his new toy. He hasn't stuck it through a fence, it is wearing an 'aero rake' to measure the air flow around the car.

Thank fuck for that, or I reckon the stewards would want a word.

[harrybarracuda]

I forgot McLaren have the first garage this season.

[harrybarracuda]

It's weird seeing 44 on a Ferrari too.

Zak Brown thinks Williams are the dark horse.

Not long to go now!

[harrybarracuda]

Lots of rain tomorrow. Looking at the way the F2's are spinning off the track in the sprint race, it could be carnage.

The age old question, is it the car or the driver? Sir Lewis will be ansewing it soon enough.

[harrybarracuda]

A safety car start to the season would be incredibly shit.

[harrybarracuda]

Well that's a cracker, first DNF of the season and we haven't even started yet.

[bsnub]

Boneheaded mistake by the rookie.

[harrybarracuda]

And the second on lap 1.

Two rookies out already.
