I expect the TP's press conference will be the most exciting thing of the weekend. Certainly moreso than any possible battle for 1st place.

Looks as though Lando has got a sore one

Thanks again!

Max to romp away with the win, Marko or Newey invited to share podium presentation with Max.

Will Newey be there?

Good question, not sure the whole RB management team has been seen in the same room since the start of the season.

Horny and Marko were in China, as Newey was seen at the Salon Privé concours in London, showing off his (and a few more) Valkyrie supercars.

Thanks PiaP!!

Not sure where to go with this one.

The AM and Mercs are pretty draggy and with 2 DRS zones and some fast bits probably not going to challenge the Ferraris. Not to mention Alonso always having to do it solo so plenty of race craft from him in sectors 1 and 2. The McLarens seem to have fallen off too.

Top 4 all blue cars this one.

Also - will Brundle be there for Sky?

After the last Sprint weekend, any new rules for this one?

So how blue is the Ferrari going to be? Might be the most interesting thing about the weekend!

Max will walk it but hopefully Perez will tangle himself up somewhere and we can have an interesting race for second.

That and the red flag when Sargeant/Stroll or both of them stick it in a barrier.

I hope it's a deeper/richer blue but got a feeling they'll go bit more corporate and it be the HP logo colour.

You mean other than one of them getting pole for the sprint and then a podium for the main GP. Other than that yeah totally fallen away!

Just how blue will they be? Are we talking whole car or just an odd looking stripe?

The press release talked about a two-tone blue livery, but didn't go as far as specifically saying it was replacing red completely, although that seems to be how it's been interpreted in the press. The team will also wear matching light blue kit.

I hear McLaren have a big upgrade for Miami.

[PhilAsia]

I do hope it is within a shade or two of turquoise blue, as that will send my head into a spin in this captivating season. I can hardly wait...

The ASDA car arriving in 2926.
