F1 action returns to Austin Tx and Haas F1 will have their first home Grand Prix. Where we last left off at Suzuka, Hamilton again bungled the start and fought his way back to finish third behind Max Verstappen - he's now 33 points down. Nico is going to have to do something amazingly bad to lose this Driver's Championship, but it ain't over 'til it's over as they say. Despite Ferrari having a better outing than Red Bull over all, Seb and Kimi finishing 4-5, Verstappen held onto P2 despite the advances of a desperate Hamilton; this consistency has now tied him in 5th in the Driver's Championship with Vettel. Force india out-duked Williams again, with Checo and Hulk finishing 7-8. This will Hulks last season with Force India as he's signed to drive for the Renault factory team in 2017. Despite decent running as of late McLaren couldn't put it together for the home fans, Alonso and Button finishing 16-18. Congrats to Petronas Mercedes AMG for clenching the Constructors Championship for the third time in a row, completely dominating this hybrid-turbo era.The current standings are as follows: Rosberg, Hamilton (-33), Ricciardo (-101), Raikkonen (-143), Verstappen (-148), Vettel (-148). COTA is one of Hamilton's favorite tracks, and he loves the states, so if he's going to get back on track it'll be this weekend. Conversely, Nico could put the proverbial nail in Hamilton's coffin if he takes another checkered flag -- the US GP should be quite significant.
Jethro walks us through the incredible Aston Martin RB001, designed by F1 aerodynamicist extraordinaire Adrian Newey, which aims to shame current F1 cars around a circuit. Mind blowing.
Well folks, the 2014 F1 Season returns this weekend in Australia. Many things have changed from last year, including drivers teams, cars and the technology that will be in the new chassis. And better yet, this is also the weekend where the 62nd running of the Sebring 12hr will take place. While FS2 is still not available to most cable customers on the East Coast, FS1 is as it's the old SPEED Channel. Additionally, IMSA will be web-casting the event online. This weekend is the start of Spring as far as we're concerned; Spring Equinox be damned! Enjoy your weekends.
