F1 has finally morphed into NASCAR…

to be fair, they were expecting to have Ricciardo…

If nothing else, this should make the second half of the season a bit more interesting.
Can Gasly use the mid-season break to reassess his approach and generate better results at Toro?
Will he perform better in […]

they are bright bloody yellow!
if you don’t see them you’re blind or already on top of them…

If Kimi starting P2 on stickier rubber can jump Lewis at the start he might just be able to hold him up until Seb Can fick up a few spots.
He might even be allowed to win the race! naaa…

Absolute rubbish –
F1 is badly broken. With 1/4 of the field taking penalties & Renault qualifying without running in Q2, qualy was a shambles.
With “Team Orders” to thank for giving Lewis the win, and Force […]

It would have helped if Williams had been able to sign Kimi for next year as they REALLY NEED an experienced driver to help with development.
Having faild to do that, perhaps someone with actual proven talent […]

This web site REALLY needs to have a serious discussion about why F1 & not just an upgrade of F2. At Monza the F2s were 10 sec. a lap slower; with better tires let’s say 7 sec. & the actual racing if FAR better. […]

“Kimi’s undoubted talent and immense experience in Formula One will not only contribute to the development of our car, but will also accelerate the growth and development of our team as a whole.” – Frédéric Vasse […]

My only question is, who’s going to pay for all these moves?
One assumes that there is an agreement in place with Williams for financing for the entire season –
Presumably Ocon has a contract with Force India […]

After being underpaid at RBR for most of his career, I strongly suspect that Horner & Marko may have tried to cheap out on their offer thinking Dan was out of options at Merc & Ferrari. Very big mistake if […]

Giving back the position does not absolve him of the infraction.
BTW, I see Bottas has pulled out the old ” he shouldn’t have tried to pass me as he knew my car was damaged” bit…

not knocking your observation, but not enforcing a rule because we’ve been really inconsistent in the past (oops, sorry Charlie!) and so we’ll let it slide (when it might affect the championship) this time.
man, […]

Very surprised they didn’t try to poach Ricciardo. I’ve got a lot of time for Bottas, but would anyone argue that Ricciardo isn’t one of the top four drivers in F1 at the moment? Personally, I’d rate him as […]

“woeful organisation spoils F1’s return to France”
you mean more than the track which looks like a parking lot gymkhana course set up by someone on LSD?

Driving one of the six best cars on the grid for a race in which it is notoriously difficult to pass, he bins it in FP3.
If I were Horner, I’d sit him out for the race; partly to send a message, and partly to […]

“If there are any proposals that distort F1, I think Ferrari will pull out”
I should have thought that giving one team a $68 million head start is something of a distortion in itself…

FWIW, I don’t think t […]

It seems this is happening much more frequently this year. Has anything changed?
if it continues, perhaps the 2021 rules could include standard wheel hub and attachment technology (er, wheel nut) to make this […]

If reports are accurate McLaren are having overheating problems and not just from the turbo/exhaust.
Give the recent cold weather in Barca (including snow!) it’s hard to believe their simulations could be so far […]

Dan Gurney,
blindingly quick in damn near anything; innovative, intelligent, inquisitive, yet humble.
He would always take the time to sign autographs or just shoot the breeze.

Racing has lost one of its true […]
