    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

-Andretti Racing will stay with Honda.
-Alexander Rossi is not signed for 2018.
-Fernando Alonso is not signed for 2018.

So......
For 2018, Rossi drives for McLaren while Honda sorts out it's engine, Alonso drives for Andretti in 2018.

What do you folks think?
 
There is no way Alonso will drive again with a Honda engine after this season. If he was to switch to Indycar he would probably ask Penske for a wheel, since 2017 might be the last season for Castroneves.

Not so sure about that.
Alonso appears to have a great relationship with the new McLaren boss....and it wouldn't surprise me if this situation was on the table...
 
Addendum: If you're not a team where the engine manufacturer is part of the primary package, then you're not going to win a championship. For Alonso, that means only 2 options - McLaren and Renault.
