Liberty certainly seem to be making the right noises, particularly where the support of the traditional circuits are concerned, and their appointment of Ross Brawn is eminently sensible.

But the season hasn't started yet, so let's see what happens as the year unfolds.

I think I will reserve judgement until I see what Liberty do with it. The worst thing for me would be if they turn it into a huge staged Disneyesque show as NASCAR seems to be.

Manor has folded

In other news, Lewis Hamilton has opened a design competition for his 2017 helmet. https://www.mercedesamgf1.com/en/mer...ns-new-helmet/

Wonder if any ex team mates fancy a shot at the new design? Other than seeing the winner it'd be good to see the entries.

First car of 2017 has been revealed, Sauber C36.

Looks pretty good, and from the front end looks very aggressive! Looking forward to seeing the rest of the cars!
