I think even the die hard fans are now reconsidering... very quiet pre-season. YAWN!
What exactly are the die hard fans reconsidering?
So are you saying that because the pre-season was quiet people are going to stop watching the racing?FrukostScones wrote:F1theblackangus wrote:FrukostScones wrote:

Not very die hard if they're going to bugger off because there hasn't been many car launches.FrukostScones wrote:F1theblackangus wrote:FrukostScones wrote:

I was hoping I was misunderstanding FrukostScones, because that most certainly does seem like a passing fancy if you didn't get some photos and stopped paying attention. =)3jawchuck wrote:Not very die hard if they're going to bugger off because there hasn't been many car launches.FrukostScones wrote:F1theblackangus wrote:

The money teams spent on 'frivolous' PR events just isn't there anymore; or it has been reallocated into other departments that impact performance. It also seems like they are stretching development time, too.Vasconia wrote:I agree that this must be the most boring (and long) pre-season I have even seen. I hope the teams will begin to show their cars, just for the sake of enjoyment!
Yes but I meant that the lack of information of the new cars havent given us a great room to speak about them during the pre-season weeks.Fulcrum wrote:Most boring? Surely it has a better chance to be considered the most suspenseful? One week before the first test we still haven't seen any of the cars, only heard fractions of news of their developments; all in a year where many anticipate an increasingly competitive field, we have a new team, new drivers and a new race venue.
I'm keen.
Ferrari's presentation is still 24 hours away. There's plenty of time for a few surprisesf1316 wrote:I'm surprised no one's yet tried to steal Ferrari's thunder as the first 2016 car to emerge with a render.
Still time for that to happen, of course, but it was a theme in the last couple of years (usually Williams, right?) so would have thought someone would want the publicity.
