    About 2 million on average per car.

    Top teams a lot more, lower teams maybe 1 mill

    Mike, team budget for the top teams is around $400million per year (to run two cars).

    Lots of protection. Apart from exposed heads, probably safer than a NASCAR.

    Cars are amazing. Same as NASCAR, it's rare that even a huge accident results in injury these days.

    A shame really in some respects though.

    this is a good example of what they can survive. This guy was concussed, but otherwise fine.

    Good slow mo replay of incident at 1.29.

    Williams is my favorite team Mike. Maldonado and Senna.

    They sucked worse than they ever have in history last year. And have 2 drivers that are in there more for the sponsor money they bring than skill. Getting both cars into Q3 is incredible for them.

    A lot of Aussies like Williams, older people anyway, as an Aussie got his and their first World Championship in 1980.

    Driver is basically sitting in a 'survival cell' the car will crumble around them, but the cocoon they sit in is massively strong. Nose, rear and sides of car are designed to take a huge amount of force and protect the driver too. All made of carbon fibre.

    Well done, nice hit with the parlay! Got my Rosberg over Schu H2H as well!

    Def like Hamilton for the race. Not sure if I will go as large as that. Depends on what he comes out at, should have really loaded up after he showed his pace on Friday.
