is good result to marck vinales, next time maybe in moto GP can batle vinales vs marques
but this season i want is competitif batle in 4 team, suzuki,ducati,yamaha and honda
vinales,rossi,marques,lorenzo , ianone and alex rin from suzuki can competitif batle in race

Yea this will be good as i said before if this testing is near close to what will be when they race i hope to see good and unexpected winners whole season. This is good for competition more drivers will be in battle for win and it will  be more interesting i can say when i was seeing this for last time to see even on testing that they are so close each other.

it seems to be very balanced in these early tests.
We hope that there is balance and competition as last year (9 different winners in 18 races)
The next official test for the MotoGP will be:
Philiph Island (Australia) February 15
Losail (Qatar) March 10 (Same circuit where there will be the first official race at the end of March)

Just finish reading reports from 3 days testing. This is amazing to see. I mean if this continues like this i cant image how it will be when season start. But i will not judge my call so fast last year was something similar but when season started all went down. Hope this season will be good to see it and watch it. Hopping to go this year on Brno or Mugello to see it live and experience this.

This is good 15 riders in 1 second. Man if this comes to real race it should be very interesting to see. Can't wait for season start.

Andrea Iannone did his best time on day 2: 1’59.452 , the second fastest time among all drivers.

these days of testing have made important informations:

-Vinales Is already very fast and it will be one of the candidates to victory this year
-Lorenzo has yet to find the right feeling with his new Ducati
-Dovizioso instead it is already very well with this Ducati
-Stoner Is very talented and it's a shame not to see him in the race

To me it wasn't.  Usually the casual fans would find F1 boring because they don't try to see past the race track.  Sometimes they fail to see that these cars are driven by real drivers that would have to go through emotions, G-forces, etc.  It's a good sport.  And overtaking should be done the old fashioned way like the days of Senna and the other great drivers.

In the news, thank god for Brawn.  He's thinking of bringing back the spending cap on all of the teams.  This will level the playing field a little.

As Manor goes under, Ross Brawn reiterates Liberty's desire for a budget cap, even though he's not sure how it can be done.

But I remember that before DRS many people were complaining that race is too boring and it's too hard to overtake. Without DRS in some tracks like Monaco or Hungary was almost impossible. On the other hand, you guys are right, now overtaking especially in fast tracks is too easy.

You got the point on DRS. I also think that this is bad i mean if you are good they you can overtake another driver with your skills not with help of DRS.
I hope that they will back from it in near future cuz for this is little boring to see some drivers taking another, maybe they should keep this but for low team then it will be good for racing.

about driver, ferari have is very high quality driver
two driver is wolrd championship in formula one, sebastian have collect 4 world championship and still young
and team mate kimi raikonen one world champhionship is very high experience in formula one
so you don't underestemate about skill ferari driver

Like everything these days, money and politics are always a key factor in anything.  My only hope for this season is for Ross Brawn to start making the rules of racing simpler.  And does anybody else think that F1 should get rid of DRS?  It's not making the drivers race anymore.  All they do now is flip a switch and they get slightly faster.  Before they had DRS, a driver had to plan 10 laps ahead and push hard so he could get that chance to pass the driver in front of him.

We will see how it will goes.
I dont want to judge anything but for first two season i wont comment on this matter after that we will see how it will be,
Hope that politic or some other influence wont be key factor here.

The Bank Santander sponsor of Ferrari mistakenly anticipated the name of the new ferrari "SF17JB" via Twitter.
After realizing the mistake immediately deleted the tweet, but now the "damage" had been done.
The new Ferrari will be unveiled next February 24.
 It is thought that the initials JB are the initials of Jules Bianchi died in Suzuka 

ros brawn in formula one is good perfoamce
ferari from nothing can get champion
after in ferari, rose brawn join to british american racing (BAR) is nothing team new team can get champion too
after BAR buy in mercedes team, rose brawn early develop mercedes team too

It is good to see Ross Brawn back as motorsport managing director. I hope the restructuring of the sport will bring renewed interest and a more competitive and level platform for Formula 1 teams to work with. We have heard a lot of complaints from fans and casual watchers alike that the sport has become really boring. I hope this time it changes under Ross Brawn's guidance.

I hope that money won't be main factor when they choose tracks like was on Bernie era. We don't need boring tracks like Sochi, Baku or Abu Dhabi. I hope they will bring bang some classic old tracks to the calendar. Calendar for next year already announced, but I expect some changes in next seasons.

Bernie Ecclestone (86 years old) leaves the circus of F1 after 40 years (1976-2016)!
The Liberty Media acquired 100% of the shares of the Formula One Group for 7,5 billion euro, removing from his throne
B. Ecclestone.
In its place there will be Chase Carey helped by Ross Brawn (ex Ferrari and Mercedes).
We'll see if this change will bring good news on f1

Maybe this will be the year for them it been quite some time since Ferrari dominate or at least won the race. Hope that this year will bring some surprises in all aspects cuz i want to see several drivers winning races and then championship is interesting and more audience will watch and come to watch them.

Then please avoid spamming your sig in threads you don't really have any knowledge to be in then.  I mean I get that you need to do your job for your sig campaign but not at the expense of wasting the time of your fellow readers in this forum and definitely not at the expense of wasting the payment given to you by the sig campaign.  I will report you to your manager if you keep doing this.

actually i am not too often to follow motorsport race but sometimes i watch it in my home. i think ferrari always make an upgrade for their car but finally it needs skill from the driver to handle the cars and how experience the driver. without two thing, the chance is small to be a winner
