“Strong Gusts” – Williams panic intensifies

I hope it’s not too windy, I see Bacu as a chance for the Grove team to score points. It’s always a hectic race and with those long straights.

Very interesting, I think Adrian Newey will be absolutely delighted with these ideas.

Separately on the weight front, those huge batteries are adding a significant anchor to the cars. While I can’t comment on […]

Have +10 B3ndy points, the most underrated comment today on RaceFans.

A gentle fade from Marlboro to Ferrari Red across the whole car would have been a much nicer touch, as it stands at the moment it looks very similar to my Max Power days. A couple of cans of spray paint later the […]

I would have thought it was obvious, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder:

The bright green against the Phillip Morris red is garish
The location of the MW branding looks wrong

It really is when you consider how many races and seasons he’s been in the sport. It’s easy to forget how short F1 careers used to be.

Yep, this is where my vote went as well. Great drive by Sharl Legreg in a car that frankly looked 5th best all weekend. Own goals by Tracing Point (come on, who lets their lead driver fly to Mexico) and a very […]

Two year deal…

…Renault confirmed as 2022 World Champions.

Super thanks! Stay safe!

I spotted a Tweet from McLaren about 10 mites before the F1 race started. Fired up YouTube on the big screen, watched Lando on Twitch on my mobile. It was brilliant!

While the world is going to hell, this was […]

+1 this

I’ve really enjoyed Indy these past few years, when you add it to FE (which is fast becoming my favourite single seater) there is good action almost every weekend now.

While Indy is slower I would […]
