    Ferrari exercises veto to squelch their cheating on 2019 engine.

    https://www.bbc.com/sport/formula1/51688538 And F1 teams are a bit miffed about it. It's really a brilliant masterstroke of PR and getting tempers flared and tongues wagging (starting with mine) for/against F1/Ferrari/FIA, as there won't be any on-track racing for some time, maybe ALL YEAR....?

    F1 Swaparama 2018: The Renault Shuffle

    Danny Ricciardo was in a bad mood when he said he'd let Gasly drive his cursed Red Bull car, but has he triggered a giant swap among Renault-connected drivers: DR to Renault, Sainz to McLaren, Gasly to Red Bull, Kvyat to Toro Rosso, and Stoffel out? It could be done because Renault is safely in...

    Williams GrandPrix Engineering doesn't sign Kubica

    https://www.motorsportmagazine.com/opini...tent=Russiacash snip from above: "Rumours persist that at some point Lawrence Stroll will purchase the British team outright, and secure his son's seat in F1 for as long as Lance desires it. Indeed, some believe that the deal is effectively done already."

    Williams GrandPrix Engineering doesn't sign Kubica

    Williams F1 instead signs well-sponsored Russian rookie, earning them Least Ambitious Team of the Decade Award. Damage control: signing Robert Kubica as bench-warming babysitter. Pathetic.

    2017 F1 Testing

    Lewis says he LOVES Valtteri already cuz he's really witty and way funnier than Heikki or Jenson and would let him fly his plane and cuddle his dog and wear his hat and also let him have this year's championship like he did with Nico but also said Ferrari are already this year's champions and...

    Need input from everyone - Should I buy this?

    "Whenever there is any doubt, there is no doubt." It's not so much about the exact amount of money, but more your time, your admiration for this model, and if you can imagine being stuck with it for the forseeable future.

    F1Swaparama! KMag-Hulk-Ocon-Gutierrez swap for Abu

    I and my friend both certainly agree it's a massive headache and expense and sacrifice of potential. My friend is friends of friends of inlaws of one of Bernie's daughter, and he hears wild things!

    F1Swaparama! KMag-Hulk-Ocon-Gutierrez swap for Abu

    RUMOUR! (from my English friend today) K-Mag to Haas, Hulk to Renault, Ocon to Force India, and Gutierrez to Manor for last race in Abu Dhabi on 27 Nov. for a nice fat head start on 2017. He thinks "confirmation is imminent." Makes too much sense to me though!

    2012 Accord hard start...

    Try cleaning the Idle Air Control Valve. Sounds like the classic PGM-FI relay (aka Main Relay) problem of having a broken solder joint (but that problem is supposed to have gone away in ~2005). http://www.tegger.com/hondafaq/mainrelay.html
