!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! The time has come again for us to start the Formula Oppo season a new! What’s !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! , you say? Well it’s only the only weekly fantasy Formula One game in town and because there’s absolutely no money involved, you can’t say it’s gambling, suck it Graftkings, suck it long and suck it hard. So join us for the first round of competition as we journey down the Fury Road towards Valhalla! What a day, what a beautiful day!

Kinja'd!!!

!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Lewis Hamilton and his Mercedes-Benz W06 won the driver’s and constuctors’ championship, while RTeeJay won our season. It was a dominant season for Lewis and Mercedes while ours was once again, down to the wire. However this season starts fresh and everyone’s points are wipped clean, wipe, wipe, wipe, wipe, wipe. There, you now have nothing! HAHAHAHA!

The Fury Road requires nerves of steel and equipment fast enough and durable enough to survive the trip. Will Mercedes updates be enough to stay on top? Can Ferrari end it’s championship drought? Will Williams wage war with wrought wins, welcoming warmth? Can McLaren get a Honda engine that is faster than a GP3 car? Has Red Bull’s Tag (re-branded Renault) power unit improved on it’s pitiful power and reliability woes? How about Renault buying back Team Lettuce, will this cash infusion produce winning cars again? Red Bull’s junior squad has ditched their craptasic Renault units for last year’s Ferrari model, we know how well that didn’t work for Manor last year...

Speaking of Manor, they have now effectively become the Mercedes-Williams Jr. squad replacing every thing with Mercedes and Williams parts and getting a Mercedes driver and a new, Indonesian wallet. Force India, is still not Aston Martin F1 because Doug DeMuro found a fantastic warranty. Sauber finally paid their employees and could be a potential mid-pack dark horse. With that brings us to the new kids on the block, Haas F1. Haas is the first American team in a long time, it’s been so long in fact, that the chassis is built in Britannia and the drive train is all brand new Ferrari equipment. Hot damn this should be a good season, fuck the haters.

Lewis wins, Seb is 2, Ricky the Clown is third (he fights better than Rosbrt). Joylon will eat it.

May the Force be with Haas.
