    It's still TBA. If Korea drops out, does that mean the dates get shuffled around?

    Either way, I'm going to KL so hopefully Button will be there with the Honda monster.

    Dates are pretty much set and won't change. They have to plan shipping and logistics pretty far in advance. If a race is skipped mid season (which I don't remember ever happening), stuff will end up getting shipped to the location of the missed race and sit at the airport.

    Yeah at the Montreal GP a couple years ago they had a info-segment regarding this. It was neat. I can't remember all of the specifics but they have 3 or 4 complete sets of race gear floating all over the world. They get packed up, then shipped to a race 3 or 4 away. They always have 2 ships transporting stuff to another race.

    Was kind of neat, then you realize why it is so expensive.
    now imagine if they sent it all by air freight

    Magnussen did have flashes of brillance but he really didn't live up to the expectation after his deput result in Australia. In my view, he was too inconsistent... and you need consistency to be contender in a championship.

    Changes at Ferrari for the week:

    http://www.autoblog.com/2014/12/19/s...fle-official/?

    Ferrari has fired its veteran engineering director Pat Fry, its chief designer Nicolas Tombazis and its tire guru Hirohide Hamashima.

    In their places, Ferrari has named appropriate replacements, and has shuffled some additional staff around. F1 journalist Alberto Antonini, for example, has taken over the press office from Renato Bisignani who will now run the Scuderia's new commercial department. More vital, however, is James Allison, a longtime F1 engineer who previously worked for Ferrari for five years and returned from Lotus last year to take up position as the team's new technical director – too late to influence last season's chassis but now charged with developing next year's.
    Jean Eric-Vergne has been signed as a test driver.

    They're doing a major overhaul around not winning a race in a season for the first time since '93.

    That's a more plausible reason why.

    Mercedes might not be as dominant next year as a loophole has allowed in season engine development for 2015. But worse off might be McLaren as Honda is exempt from the loophole.
