kerrdavidson95 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 Just under a month to go until the first pre-season test in Catalunya and according to the BBC, Honda have found 223 horsepower more than last year's engine. It couldn't be much worse, could it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It couldn't be much worse, could it? By my calculations, that takes them to 227. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It couldn't be much worse, could it? Wet weather tyre testing started today, weirdly! Not a hope have Honda found that much. No chance. That'll be about a quarter up on where they were last year - I know they were bad but surely they weren't that poor. Manor are building up an impressive technical staff but they might want to announce some drivers. I'm loathe to do the Fantasy F1 before Manor are sorted, although there's a chance Pastor might get booted too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would probably love Magnusson, but he doesnt bring a great deal of money. I think Mehri is out the running, and it isnt a great sign for Stevens that they havent announced him yet. Maybe a Rossi, Magnusson pairing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's an Indonesian guy whose name I can't remember or spell who has apparently a bucket load of cash. If they take him they may be able to take a proper driver like Magnussen too, although there's rumours he'll replace Maldonado. I'd like to see Rossi get a shot too. Would be good to have an American driver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sliced Bread Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 They seem to be talking down their chances, and with two inexperienced drivers, could be a tough year for Enstone. Still, at least Pastor's gone so they'll need less spare parts and mechanics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fanny paddery Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Grid starting to take shape now that Maldonado has been punted for Magnusson and Manor have taken Wehrlein. Would expect a big budget pay driver to take the last Manor seat, maybe Rossi? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
