Sacking continues at Ferrari as Pat Fry exits making way for Jock Clear - Lewis's engineer at Mercedes in a shock move.

​ Bring on the randomness!
Apparently I actually exist! Or maybe it was the drink?

That *is* a big signing and a blow for Hamilton if they do not get someone good in to replace Jock.    It's a big promotion for JC though, Dir of Engineering @ Ferrari is a way bigger role.

Haas has purchased Marussia facility (but nothing else that was auctioned) and looking to join in 2016 using Ferrari engines, Haas HQ will remain in the US. Their interest in F1 has been on the cards for some time now. They also somehow aquired Marussia's 2015 car specs.

Off-season is almost over folks, testing is imminent.   McLaren wanted to let you know in a 'back to the future' sort of way.....

Sauber C34, audio of engine and a nice view of the wheel dashboard in operation.

I came into this world with nothing,
through careful management I\'ve got most of it left.

I see they have adopted the Alfa logo close to the heart, maybe a shout out to where Ferrari originated from (or just paid them lots of money being in the same group). Vettle looks strange in Ferrari racing gear!

Interestingly, Ferrari were also quickest at the 2014 Jerez test which is why they went on to have a stellar season ... :flirty:
