FIA says you can't test too new cars, plus I guess there might be some shenanigans with the Renault-Lotus stuff

>>76389142
Driving 2017 and 2016 cars counts as testing of current cars. Driving 2013, 2014 and 2015 counts as testing of previous cars. Driving 2012 or older cars counts as testing of historic cars.
So I guess it was because of that.

assuming he doesn't win this year, of course, which I think is unlikely.

well they missed the window for 2018 but 2019 seems to be McLaren Mercedes when he talks like this. Just as Honda is getting more data with Sauber McLaren drop them...and Sauber rises.

>>76389777

Why do people think this is a near certainty? What makes people think that Merc want them back?

IMO they're just as likely to end with Renault or even (rebadged) Ferrari engines.

>>76389811
>What makes people think that Merc want them back?

Why wouldn't they? A customer is a customer, money is money. What makes you think a business would hold personal grudges over business decisions?

>>76389825
apart from the fact that McLaren could well become a frontrunner again with decent powerplants?

would Merc want even more competition, and coming from one of their own minion teams?

>>76389851

>Falling for the McLaren has a great chassis meme

>>76389893
I said "could well", not "definitely will". 2019 is a long way away in F1 development time.

Anyway, Button qualifying 9th in MCO kind of strengthens the theory that the McL chassis is alright

>>76389811
Well Ferrari isn't gonna do it. Renault might but Red Bull will throw a fit which leaves only Mercedes.

>>76389707
AFAIK the biggest issue with Honda engine is combustion and fuel. The ICE was designed for Mobil fuel (hence the excellent performance in test bench), but when Red Bull poached them away, Honda was left with BP Castrol. It will take time to get the fuel quality and trackside operations to Mobil's level.

And when Honda finally solves the problems for next season, Zak might feel a bit stupid with Merc customer engine and restricted engine modes. Sauber, however, will be one happy team.

And I'm going through with Australia's suggestion of having an online backup (No you aren't gonna have access)

>>76392499
Octane number and energy content are important, but there are many more variables such as flame speed and things. Things that help to get maximum power and efficiency from the crankshaft.

And due to regulations, the engine manufacturers can do almost anything with fuel.
With optimal fuel the HP, fuel mileage and combustion efficiency gains can be massive.

Nope, not even close. More like that 80's race fuel which made spectators' eyes burn.

Fucking based Zak.
1) Red Bull have proved you definitely can win with a customer engine
2) It's clear Zak is pissed off, he made pointed comments at the end of Indy how it "wasn't surprising" that a Honda engine blew up on him
3) He's absolutely right about Honda's payments not really making up for the loss of sponsorship. McLaren were in a strong place in 2014, they had the best fucking engine on the grid. And McLaren usually do have one of the biggest budgets, so I think they could have challenged at the front.

>>76389825
The whole reason Merc is in F1 is to boost their brand. It defeats the purpose if another team beats them.

>>76389893
It's one of the best on the grid, how else do you think Alonso qualified 7th in Spain despite the shitty PU making them 20km/h slower at the end of the straight?

>>76392329
Honda give them free PUs and €100 million a year mate. McLaren don't pay a penny - they RECEIVE money.

Red bull was a pseudo works team when they won, as Renault proper get back into the groove of F1 I doubt they will be able to compete.

>>76394042
Priestly is so dull.

>>76394092
>Red bull was a pseudo works team when they won
How so? Surely they were customer just like everyone else. Remember the Renault team still existed in 2010.
>as Renault proper get back into the groove of F1 I doubt they will be able to compete.
Red Bull have a much bigger budget. Renault aren't spending that much. But I guess sponsorship has a role there, and now that RB aren't as successful, those contracts might be less lucrative. And Renault's improvement this year might attract more sponsors. But it really does depend on how much Renault decide to fund it really. If they wanted to they could probably blow Red Bull away. They could hire Newey, for instance. That would be funny.

>>76394279
Dying Renault > Lotus Renault > lotus

Renault wasn't exactly in a strong position in 2010 and they weren't really in F1 as a works team in 2011.

It's not exactly clear cut which is why I said pseudo works team, RBR wasn't really a works team but it's not like there was a real works team at the time.

I have faith that Renault will be able to turn it around, they seem to be renewed in their dedication to racing. Time will tell.

where do I get the faster shame cube model?

>>76394601

It's not for toothpastes.
Your shame should be drawn out and painful.

>>76394421
I guess it's true that it's very rare for a customer team to win the world championship when their engine supplier is ALSO running a works team. In fact 2010 is the only example I can think of.

McLaren could still go with Mercedes though. In fact maybe Eddie Jordan's hunches from the conversations he had with Dieter Zetsche could be right, and Mercedes will go back to being a supplier instead of a team. Who knows.

>>76394440
That's just an estimate from 2015. Look at this which says what the teams spent in 2016.
>Red Bull: €252 million
>Renault: €176 million
http://www.grandprix247.com/2017/01/03/what-did-formula-1-teams-spend-in-2016/

But like I said it could be down to sponsorship differences. Red Bull and Renault themselves might be putting forward similar amounts for their teams. Red Bull obviously have a very strong sponsorship portfolio because they're seen as a successful team with a proven track record. The Aston Martin deal alone could be worth quite a bit. Whereas Renault have had to build a sponsorship portfolio from scratch, and obviously they don't have the success to convince big sponsors to jump aboard.

>>76394640

Indeed Eddie has been right about many things, and you've got to bear in mind that he says his source is Dietrich Zetsche himself, the head of Daimler.

Also I just found these earlier comments Eddie made, before Monaco:
