A lot of new liveries on display this week. The first race of the F-1 season is just two and half weeks out.

Testing in 1.5 weeks.

My lovely wife had 2 blasters of F1 cards for me when I got home from work today. Inside one of them was a Max Verstappen relic card number to 75. Not a fan of Red Bull, but I will take it.

That's big news. They will move away from Red Bull who are building their own engine and putting Ford stickers on it and to Aston Martin who have hired a lot of former Red Bull engineers.

And this is after Honda said they didn't want to develop an engine for the new regs. Horner and Marko will take this well.

Honda is the most fickle engine supplier going.
