Why do we have a WDC then, if it was purely a team sport it would be the WCC and that's it.

So people who don't understand have something to focus on?
You realize the WDC came first right?

Personally, I assumed the WCC was added to address European social standards, it's gotta be for the greater good and all........

I like both the drivers a lot and I have never jumped in to prove, one better than other. Simply because, they are not. Let's rest the case here for good.

A new deal for Toto and Niki. So looks like the team plan to be around for another 4 seasons at least. Despite some people here saying they could pull the plug.

Very well placed this time. I mostly agree on this and have a similar opinion. The intentions looked different on the 1st post, that's why I couldn't resist and replied with a "spicy" answer, too. :mrgreen: Cheers.

I wonder why they felt the need to blur the label on the left rear 10 seconds into the video.

Nice, Renault say they have made gains of 0.3 seconds over the winter, I wonder how much time an "unprecedented" step will gain.

The livery is at least better than the previous years, love the new "fluorescent" lines at the sides!

It is, but the "fluorescence" is lost in broad daylight. In Singapore it will look amazing, though
