I liked Liberty's summation of the rules, which make it sound like "everything will be fixed!" Hmm, I think people have said that before, a time or two.

Cost cap doesn't include driver salaries or "marketing." There is a lot of room in marketing.

Great news for Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes.

I just wish that Niki Lauda was here to join in the celebrations.
