Nope. No streaming, and not that much other media either (mostly pitlane videos and photos).

I guess with a brand new car there was still a chance things could go fully tits up like everyone breaking down or something that wouldn't make for good PR

I'm just desperate to see anything this late in the season

Kelvin van der Linde will replace Frijns for Diriyah at least.

Back when I raced if you picked up points on your road license, you lost your race license. It’s why racing drivers didn’t drive like dicks on the road, you were expected to set a good example and punished if you didn’t.

I know someone who was banned for life from holding a race license for being caught drink driving, only slightly over the limit.

How times have changed.

Seems like a really good idea lost there.

judging by how his career always falls upwards I can see him getting a F1 test soon

Looks like he got a lesser penalty by not revealing who was driving, sort of speed they were going is usually ban territory. Though unlucky to get done on the M6 Toll, I always thought that was a pretty safe motorway...

Gotta go full NASCAR and use a racial slur first, then he can be promoted to the best team and win :whistling:

There's Sepang and then there's this track. Look how narrow it is :8:

Line-up for FE rookie test in Berlin next week. Includes Drugovich, Kvyat and Merhi among others.

Jack Nicholls has been fired by FE with immediate effect and won't commentate any longer. Ben Edwards is his temporary replacement.

No reason given but it's weird they've sacked him, considering he's been there since day 1.

Temporary? Huh.......lets hope its permenant Ben Edwards forever more

Seriously though, has Jack done something worth being cancelled or something? Bizarre to take such steps halfway.....well three quarters of the way through a formula E season.

No more "The man from Nuneaton" for us

How odd. Jamie Reigle was replaced as CEO last week but it would be very odd for the new one to go after a commentator.

There will also be a replacement for Vernon Kay next weekend as he has moved onto his new Radio 2 gig.

That's bad, I really liked him

Rowland out at Mahindra, Merhi in.

Turns out it was for bit too handsy with some women and had actually been barred from the paddock.

He's been doing it remotely from a UK studio since the start of the season right? I guess that was a result of the creep-ban.

Gone from BBC Radio 5 F1 too: https://www.independent.co.uk/f1/f1-bbc ... 59047.html

The first provisional calendar for next year has been released - the one major confirmation is that there will be a race in Tokyo. Hyderabad and Cape Town are TBCs on the same weekends they ran on this year, Jakarta is back down to 1 race, Rome is back in April and there is another TBC at the end of May, which is possibly Seoul.
