F1B has come into possession of the official list of Formula1 New Year’s Resolutions, as compiled by Bernie Eccelstone. The following list are those resolutions for 2010 that were submitted by various personages involved in F1 to Mr. Ecclestone under promise of secrecy. Mr. Ecclestone has subsequently leaked the list to F1B and I am pleased to share this information with the readers of F1B and the world.

LOL. Love it! Especially Steve Matchett…he’s too busy counting rice than to bother with paltry mushrooms. ;)
Great job Vick!
Poor Rubens, he might not even get his wish… Frank will have no mercy if Hulkenberg’s quicker.
I thought Bernies resolution would be “Don’t mention Hitler..Not even on a dare”
The Stig, Anonimous British Car Show Driver… To win an 8th World Championship wearing silver overalls…
Well, about Nelson Piquet Jr (now officially Nelson Ângelo Piquet according his new Twitter account) provably it´s not a joke at all.
