Looks like Red Bull have been cleaver again by putting in a vent on the stepped nose. Rumours are it redirects airflow to the back creating more downforce like the previous blown diffusers. But could simply be for cooling the KERS system which they had issues with last season. Will be interesting to see which one it is!!

"He also claimed that the hole in the step section of the nose is for driver cooling despite some suggesting that it could have some alternative aerodynamic purpose"

Adrian Newey thinks 2011 dominance is no guarantee that Red Bull will set F1 pace in 2012 - F1 news - AUTOSPORT.com

Anyone else feeling excited about this season now the testing has kicked off :-)

Yes, i cant wait. Should be a good season. Need to find an app for my ipad soon as well.

Very excited, testing will always throw a lot of people. Let's hope more cars are competitive. Looks like I might have to get sky HD now unless reptor can point me in the right direction of streams

Would anybody happen to know whether the new F1 Season is likely to get a showing on Sky3D? We've just got it and its brilliant! I imagine F1 in 3D would be phenomenal!

I didn't know there was one, F1 official android?

Almost season time. Worth watching this test 12min video to feed your adiction till the new season starts :-)

1TB HD box ordered - tip: Go via Quidco link and you'll get £50 cashback to cover the cost of the 1TB box - making it a £15 purchase for the self installation cost...Sky, the robbong sods!

My HD box from Sky was free
Looking forward to the GP sooo much

I had F1 official app for last season for my ipad which was also available for android, but nothing seems to be released so far this year.

Actually scrap that.... i had the app too cos you have to register for it to access the main content dont ya

Yes you did. Im currently checking out the available apps. Will let you know what I find.

Team owner Dietrich Mateschitz has promised there will be no team orders at Red Bull this season
'No team orders' at Red Bull - Dietrich Mateschitz | Red Bull | Formula 1 news, live F1 | ESPN F1

Yeah whatever nooob...Listen to 1min in this video then..There WILL BE team orders again this year if same thing happens..Yawn.

Been a F1 Fan for 40 years.. unfortunately Bernie has decided i cant watch all of it so i will not bother at all. Seems he needs the cash so only the well off can watch now. Seriously though i hope the viewing figures are crap so the BBC get it back where it belongs.

I remember they did this too Bikes a few years back. You had to buy Sky sport, then they moved it to Euro sport 3 and then to euro sport 2 then 1 and so on so to watch the season you had to subscribe to 3 or 4 channels.....it ended up back on BBC because everyone got pissed off and gave up with it. I hate and loathe Sky for the damage its done to national TV and i would not subscribe to it on principle. If every one felt the same we would have F1 for Free back on BBC with out adverts.

Yawn...We knew it was going to happen a long time ago. 99% of people have got over it and sought other ways to watch it. Stop moaning about it. If you really are a "True fan" then you would find other ways to watch it like 99% of peole have.

Anyways.....

your right, they play every single race on polsat, i've got it sorted

btw. that long blade on the top of ferrari machine makes it look like an RC car

That is an rc system, it's for when Alonso and Massa get bored of following RB and Mclaren, they let the mechanics play.

Have you seen the Ferrari F1 website, 'Discover the winners'. What have they won recently?

I didnt insult you so kinda proves my point to your mentality bro. If you don't like seeking other ways to watch the sport then post in another thread maybe?

Sir Stirling Moss has backed Jenson Button to get the better of Lewis Hamilton in the intra-team battle at McLaren once again this season.

Looks like you got this thread all to yourself......."bro" wonder why......PMSL.

The arm chair supporters will be here once the season starts newbie. Maybe look over last years thread to see it "Bro"

Somone should start a new thread called "moaning about paying to see F1 / Cant be bothered to seek free option but im a true fan" im sure you will be the top poster...

So where does buying a sat dish and getting installed and a decoder etc fit in with not paying anything.
Fact is mate people who start a reply with "Yawn" accuse someone with a differing opinion to yours as " moaning" and cast doubt on whether that are a fan by putting "true fan" in inverted commas needs to learn some manners.
If you want to line Bernie's pockets thats up to you, he got stinking rich by tapping into mugs like you but don't expect me or many thousands of F! fans to join you on principle.

Who said owt about buy a sat dish / decoder and paying for it? I posted links to watch it FREE when the season starts and i said would post more FREE steams when available.
Hope you enjoy your "principles" when everyone else is watching F1 for FREE.....


Anyways

Paddy, you'll go around in circles mate - he's still not sought the education I told him he needed 'moons' ago, like arguing with the cast of 'One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest'

I'm afraid I used the Sky excuse to buy a 1TB HD box, although i fully agree vote with your feet - Just people don't stick together like they used to and I need my F1 fix

Going off topic again huh?

If this thread doesn't stay on topic, I will start banning members from the thread!

Not pointing fingers at anyone.
