I'd retain Kvyat purely for his radio messages.
And I'd bin Palmer tomorrow. He finished, but was so completely anonymous on a day his teammate was clearly pushing hard.
Ocon had a fantastic race though. It's a real shame Perez wouldn't get out of his way...
The yard is nothing but a fence, the sun just hurts my eyes...
I need to hear more of them.
I predict that by the time we get to Silverstone, each one will just be a long series of expletives, a la Roger Mellie.
Full details later today apparently.

Maybe they can agree to take Honda back for the next lot of engines once everyone has had a good crack at developing from scratch, but honestly why would you bet against Merc for anything involving hybrid turbos
Honda claim they have a major upgrade coming (heard that before).
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I wouldn't get too excited, it'll probably be about as effective as a new coat of paint.
I see Kubica has been testing a Renault F1 car. And given Palmer's lacklustre performance this year I wonder if we could see a change there?

That's even quicker than the 1985 record set when the track had no chicanes on the Mulsanne, no Dunlop chicane and a few other corners were notably quicker too.
Always liked Kobayashi, he just seemed a bit meek and mild (typical Japanese manners/modesty?) off track to make it in the F1 snakepit.
I'll be dipping in and out of the race during the 24H, watching the whole thing is bording on psychotic.

If the Alfa engine was a rebadged Ferarri, I can't see them being happy supplying McLaren. There's just too much rivalry between the two. Ferrari are fine with supplying backmarkers who effectively double their testing mileage but jump out of the way on the track but I can't imagine the late Enzo being happy with his engines in the back of "Garagistas" that could beat his own cars.

Alfa does have an F1 history - longer than any other I think - but it won't happen. Cost. Cost. Cost.Cost Cost.
Mclaren and Ferrari have enough history for any tie up to be sheer fantasy.
Expect to see an MB engine in the back of the Mclaren
Alfa indeed has a long history, Enzo Ferrari learned his trade there.
I think McLaren might be trying to explore all non-customer engine option before they settle on a Merc (great engine that it is and Merc have a supply freed up since Manor didn't show up in Melbourne) but they need the financial backing of either a huge title sponsor (that they've not had for years) or a works outfit deal. But settle on a Merc I believe they will. Eventually.

F1 for Mercedes worked. VW/Audi going into F1 would be on the back of a bloody great Dieselgate fine that Mercedes didn't have.
There's rumblings of a chinese team that's looking to enter F1, and mutterings on F1technical that it might be Ron at the helm...
And Baku this weekend. Meh.
Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
I had high hopes for Baku, the circuit looked to be great at first look. But the race itself was a snooze-fest.
Alonso and Transit Van Door will never finish the race.
