because Rosberg didn’t even bother to win them, just cruise safely to 2nd

You can’t possibly know this for sure. Nico was super stressed in that last race when Lewis backed him up, if he could have taken that s […]

I’m pretty sure that Lewis had worse reliability too and that whenever he had an issue he was in front of Jenson and Jenson benefited. However, when Jenson had a reliability issue he was often behind Lewis and so […]

During the Ferrari years, didn’t Schumacher enjoy a rather large tyre advantage? Those Bridgestones were specifically engineered for Ferrari. He used to do lap after lap at the test track dialling in the car. […]

Maybe the H which derives from the Turbo but the K is from braking and shouldn’t be affected. I’m not sure where the Ferrari advantage is coming from. If it’s mostly H then you’re probably correct.

I’m really interested to see how the Ferrari performs in Mexico. If it’s mostly a battery advantage then the high altitude won’t affect them as much and they should be mega fast, but maybe it’s more ICE related […]

I just posted something similar replying to your previous message. I agree with you. Merc could have given us a more interesting race and offered Hamilton the alt strategy.

Back when it used to be Hamilton and Rosberg and they had a clear advantage the other driver was offered an alt strategy.
I’m surprised it wasn’t allowed today as well. Hamilton should have asked for the hard […]

I was playing a game of what if earlier. What if we still had Kimi in the Ferrari? I think we would have seen Lewis on pole here and possibly in spa and monza as well. I also think we would be looking at Lewis on […]

Quite a few comments talking about how lucky HAM was with the safety car and having hard tyres fitted that he could take to the end, and yes it was luck that put him in front. However, for me at this point BOT […]

This would only work if the pole point was awarded on the condition the pole driver finished in the points in the race (as per the suggestion for fasted lap in the article). Otherwise a championship could be […]

I have to agree with you. I would be interested in what the stewards would have said about the incident if it had actually been for position rather than OCO unlapping himself. To me, VER didn’t leave racing room […]

I run it on my ipad and haven’t updated it so it’s still the old version and it works perfectly. If anyone out there has yet to update, don’t! The old version currently still works.

I wish they’d called new hard tyre the “Well’Ard”

No it doesn’t count for everything but it was a very special lap and it meant Lewis set up his own Sunday cruise. It wasn’t handed to him, he worked for it on Saturday in the most difficult of conditions. […]

Maybe for driver of the race…but not the weekend. Does Saturday not count for anything?

This is my reasoning too. Not everyday someone takes pole by over a second to the rest of the field and 2 seconds to their own team mate. Lewis’ lap in the terrible conditions on Saturday setup his easy victory. […]

You’re right about last year but something feels a little off this year with Merc. The car isn’t working quite as well as it should. Both LH and VB have had very inconsistent long runs and a lot of track side […]

This was the best pointless argument for a century!

Consistent yes, like a Rubens or a Filipe…

I think Merc have an opportunity here to do what Ferrari did with Schumi. Put a number 2 in the other seat and push HAM as the defacto number 1. The field is likely to close up next season as the engines get […]
