Where have you been? I thought everyone knew they were a couple?

There was some hoo ha a while back about him dumping her or something.

To be fair RBR are pretty good at keeping partners out of the spotlight. Most people wouldn't recognise Vettels partner, and I don't even know if Ricciardo is single or not.

Same, I didn't realise they were even a couple, just thought she was a guest and a big fan of F1.

What planet have you been on! Don't recall the infamous interview gatecrash after the 2013 British GP? That was hiding behind the sofa to cringe material...

Horner dumped the ex-Mrs early in the season, 6 months after she gave birth to their daughter. Hmmmm.
 
I read this on Sniff Petrol and simply assumed the whole story was satire - I was completely unaware.

Edit: I still can't really see it.

So long ago it feels like it was ages ago , beginning of the year / season was the kind of period I was thinking of when that news originally hit (but yes RBR never seem to have "partners" around at all)

Getting set for Silverstone tomorrow for a filming day. We'll be parading the interim Honda-engined MP4-29H/1X1 & 2 classic McLaren-Hondas.


:D

Will this "test" car have a 2015 nose instead of a Fully star it out? I'm assuming that's also a reason to run it early, so the guy coming over from RB can get a practical hands-on of the new aero?

I think it would be hilarious if they ran this in the last race and it turned out to be quicker than the Mercs. and affect the championship :p

Nose cone isnt on yet, I dont work for racing so can only go on what I see through the windows in that respect. I get a lot of info but car set up is not at the top of the list. However Peter Pedonomou has been busy since he got here though.
 
They wouldn't be able to run it in Abu Dhabi without crash testing it, and there's not been any news of that yet.

I'm assuming its just a 2014 chassis with Honda engine, as it would be very difficult to evaluate changes if they threw a bunch of updates on all at once.
