Just watched Episode 1, looking good. Especially as it appears there is little input from Red Bull this season…

Anyone notice James Vowles' speedmaster in Episode 4?(yes it m binging).

It seems to have a panda dial but the subdial at 9 is white with an darker (gold?) Outter ring.

I haven’t watched it yet, so I have not seen what you are referring to; however, are you sure it’s a Speedmaster? Williams is sponsored by Bremont and I can’t imagine he would wear something other than that while on camera representing his team.

That link shows a Panda chronograph with a white 9 o’clock subdial. James’ watch may even be further customized for him.

You're right, I was thinking it may have been a personal watch, but it definitely looks like this one taking into consideration the sponsorship you mentioned.

Just reading between the lines of the snippets that have been made public it sounds like Horner's unrelenting expectations of performance of all team members got someone to feel she was being targeted and harassed. We will never know what really happened. Let the racing begin, on Saturday.

Lewis Hamilton quote from 2011:

“Red Bull are not a manufacturer, they are a drinks company,” he said. “It’s a drinks company versus McLaren [and] Ferrari history.”

So there’s an alleged “leak” of Horner WhatsApp messages and some pics, but whoever it was that send them really appears to have an eye to grind and sent the link to every F1 journal, TP, and senior personnel member. Entirely likely that this stuff is fake as there are websites dedicated to generating bogus WhatsApp screenshots and the motive behind the anonymous sender is ultra sketchy.

I’m not saying someone who tries to pay off someone to the tune of 500,000 pounds is trying to hide something…

As a Fernando fan I know I shouldn’t get excited as the Dutchman is about to vanish into the distance, but my heart wants that 33rd win

Which was true back then. I remember Coultard at monaco Gp dressed with a cap as a part of a promotion ( star wars?).

Looking forward to qualifying here shortly. But also prepared to have it shake down just like last seasons qualifying rounds.

Unfortunately, I think you are right. The only question is who will be vice wield champion and which teams will second.
