Title wins affecting 2013 plans – Newey (BBC)
“Red Bull told BBC Sport that they would confirm next week whether the 2013 car would be ready in time for the first pre-season test, which starts on February 5th at Jerez in Spain.”
Damon Hill shielded his son from F1, now he wants to get him in it (London Evening Standards)
“The reality is that motorsport is still dangerous. But I wouldn’t want to deny any of my children the chance of discovering or learning about risk. Life is a risk and you have to learn to be aware of the risks. If you’re not prepared for the risks, that’s more dangerous.”
Hill: Hamilton can become a leader (Autosport)
“When I went to another team I was seen as a leader, so maybe it’s easier to take on that role once they’re looking to you to give them some direction. Lewis might learn that, he might find that in himself. We don’t know, but put in that situation he might find it.”
Lauda leaves airline to focus on Mercedes role (Reuters)
“Retired triple Formula One champion Niki Lauda has left the board of Air Berlin so he can devote more time to his new role with Lewis Hamilton’s Mercedes Formula One team, the airline said on Thursday.”

Hearing that Mercedes have booked Jerez circuit for filming day on Monday before test starts. Wonder who will be first in the car.

This year there is no Japanese F1 driver and no terrestrial F1 TV program. We have no idea how to keep F1 spirit with my extinguisher.

Comment of the day
@Nackavich’s reaction to the new restrictions on using DRS during practice and qualifying:
That’s a shame about the use of DRS in practice. I completely understand the need for the rule as it concerns safety, but I have tickets for the Waite stand at the Australian Grand Prix and was looking forward to watching the drivers get out of shape opening the DRS over the kerbs and slippery Astroturf on the exit of turn 12. Oh well.

On this day in F1
Two years ago today Ferrari dropped Chris Dyer as a consequence of Fernando Alonso’s last-round defeat in the drivers’ championship the year before.
Technical director Aldo Costa was was similarly shown the door after the team produced another uncompetitive car in 2011. Will anyone be made to carry the can for last year’s disappointing start to the season?
