If I had to guess I would chance my arm at "(renault F1) we made promises about where the car would be and he made us write it in the contract, oops." and so he is free to go walk about. It seemed odd when he signed for them? Not that I don't wish they were doing better and there was a tighter fight.


Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

There may not be one let alone two at Silverstone if they don't get a grip of the situation we are currently in, and with their attitude I'd prefer to watch them from Hockenheim and Imola tbh. Silverstone greedy...

Looks like McLaren are in big financial bother now..

It hasnt been a priority for renault for a long time. They have ocon for next year, rumor put Alonso in that seat.

I'm really not that interested in the media driven nonsense.
Much more important is if we can meet up at the Hive Beach, Mid June, for the annual Morgan Mid Summer Madness!!

Doesnt really make sense that one. Renault is a works drive. McLaren is a customer drive and will never have quite the same engine whatever the rules say. So why would Ricardo step down? I wonder if Renault have decided not to continue long term.
