Have most teams announced their 2017 line up yet?

ah good stuff, thanks.
I wonder if McLaren will bring a competitive car this season as they have been out in the wilderness since Honda came back to F1. Alonso must be kicking himself for the Ferrari debarcle.
If you believed McLaren last year (which I didn't) they said they had the second best car aero wise. This should translate to having a good car this year with the regs as they are.

Will Lance be strolling around the track in the Williams? Massa, shortest retirement ever?

Mr Stroll has had quite a few big ding dongs,so could be interesting to watch.
Bernie is gone.

not sure if I feel sorry for him or not, he was a bit of cnut. Must be sad to be kicked out of the business you developed into a mega corp though, perhaps I do feel bad for him
Hope the old **** dies of a heart attack just as the boot goes up his arse sending him out the door.

Think liberty media are making some good choices so far. Wonder if toto wolf is worried about brawn now being in partial control!!!??

What did Bernie Ecclestone ever do for us ?! [/python]

Safe hands indeed. Last interview I saw with Ross he was saying less change is better for the sport, ie he was against the regulation changes being so broad because it was just as other teams were catching Mercedes.
Hopefully he'll put an end to the gimmicky bollocks.
Finding Massa's return a bit of an anticlimactic thought given he effectively didn't retire.
Hoping for bigger things from McLaren, disappointed for Werhlein.

Whinge whinge crash. Maybe it's not the tyre that's simply not good enough, Mr 4xWC
Seems to be lots of change at Mclaren as well. New fuel, possibly livery. The lack of Ron may be attracting sponsers again.

An orange Mclaren will certainly brighten the pits up.
McLaren need a new engine supplier I'd say, Honda were great but their return has been underwhelming
