Honda can really improve if they want to improve.Let's make a comparison with F1,when Honda came back in 2015 in collaboration with McLaren the expectations for them were really high as in the late 1980 they dominated F1 completely but the truth was that they were really weak and Alonso complained in the famous radio message "GP2 engine,GP2 engine".Well some time passed and they are now winning consistently Championships from 3 years now with Redbull that has an Honda engine.
So to make an analogy if Honda put themselves to work they can achieve improving the bike and even coming back and winning MotoGP Championships like they used to do in the early 2000-s here up to some years ago before Ducatti took over.
Fun fact, every time Honda comes back in F1 and leaves, the year when they left has always been the yeah when they won the title. Even this time they left and Max won the title in their last year in F1. Yes they are keeping the engine in F1 now but they are done by BRB itself. |

Pavard is now almost officially a player of Inter. This will be the most expensive player bought from Serie A this season, 30m €.  Serie A is one of the poorest league atm. |

Today as told was the day of Lukaku to Roma.
Done deal, will be in Italy tomorrow with 1 day of delay but today he got his contract on loan.

If you ever will feel useless, remember that F1 have full wet tyres... It already looked that fun things will begin, but then they stopped race immediately. There was some chaos in race, but after all, final outcome is same like always - Verstappen win. Feel sorry for Perez - something always should go wrong for him. He goes to pits for wet tyres ands then session get red flagged. It's good for him that he got position back before restart. And then breaking speed limits in pit lane.
Alonso again showed masterclass, especially driving on wet track.
The problem with the fully wet tires is not the tires themself but the spray of water caused by the high speed. The tires work greatly with high water on the track. F1 is working on a solution, on a fender to add when the rain its. Don't ask me how they gonna doing it. |

After the 1st half, Lazio is losing again and Napoli is winning again.
Lazio desperately need to score points after losing the past week with Lecce.

Tomorrow should be the day for Lukaku on loan to AS Roma.
He should be in Italy in the morning for the medicals.
|
|
|
|
|
How to make this F1 interesting again?
Even if Max starts last, he ends up winning the races.
What is the secret of Redbull?
We have nearly 10000 people working on the other cars and nobody can discover it.

Disappointing game for Juventus.
Good performance for Vlhavoic but the rest of the team, meh.
The others big teams are playing now.
|
|
|
|
|
Another win for Max, this time was not so easy because of the chaos with the weather.
9th win in a row, he will going to beat the all time record.
If I can recall it is 11 wins.

Lukaku basically said that next week he will be in Italy in Rome to sing with the team of Mou.
HE will be a great addition for the team but a bad move for his career.

Atalanta lost versus Forsinone  and now Roma is losing 2-0 after the 1st half. What is happening, if they will end losing it will be a dramatic start for As Roma. |
|
|
|
|
Pole again for MAX with more than half of a second in such a short track.
If tomorrow will not rain and he will push he will give 1 lap to everyone.

well, honestly speaking, Klopp and all the others who declare that it is impossible to make a transfer market if Saudi teams get the players they want with stellar contracts, they should look closely at what happens in the Premier League, even the less famous teams make the transfer market with contracts Quite substantial, the TV rights in the Premier League give all teams the possibility of being able to operate on the market without major problems, and it has been like this for quite a few years! not from today. that's why the Premier League has more than a billion difference with the remaining European and non-European nations
Impossible for Premier Leauge? Keep it real, Saudi is doing what the Premier League did in the last decade compared to the other leagues. |

As you may know, Lukaky is now close in joining As Roma on loan.
They are talking about 12 mils for 1-year loan plus the salary entirely paid from Roma.
Not a cheap operation, we are talking about 20 mil for 1 year.
|
|
|
|
|
Keep in mind that during the long break, teams are not allowed to work on their car.
This mean we should be at the same point of the last races, with RBR dominating during races and a closer Mclearen on qualify.
