@qeki Which prooves exactly that this obsession with Tilke-fying the tracks with: slow corner → long straight → tight hairpin, doesn’t necessarily work. If Barcelona changes Turn 10 slightly, it won’t make any sig […]

Yet Suzuka’s two longest straights end in flat or near-flat turns (130R and turn 1)
Silverstone as well. It has 3-4 good overtaking spots (Stowe, Brooklands, Copse, Village) and only the last is a hairpin, the o […]

Does this also confirm that the customer teams might not have gotten actual works spec engines?
Well I believe everyone got the same hardware, but up until 2017 (if I remember correctly), Mercedes and every works […]

just search: “f1 bangkok 2015 racefans” and you’ll find some articles

@jerejj Posting the link backfired somehow

Also from one of the articles:
The 2014 calendar is already slated to include a new race in Russia in 2014 and a second Grand Prix in the USA.
Oh… the second GP in the USA, in New Jersey… I’ve […]

Thailand was mooted to join around 2015 if I remember correctly.
It was supposed to be a night street race in the streets of Bangkok, but much like Vietnam’s case it fell apart just before the season began.

Is it just me, or other people as well are fed up with the dozens of complex time penalties every weekend, either for track limits, or for these kinds of “misunderstandings”?

First of all, at the first start of […]

All I’m saying that there should be a consistency in the rules. After the rules about restarts after a red flag was changed sometime around 2018-19, we’ve had 4 races with standing restarts […]

A few things from yesterday..

• The Perez incident is a stupid rule in my opinion. The track was damp, he went off, two cars passed him, he rejoined and reclaimed his original position.
First it creates an u […]

Every car is doing it
That still doesn’t change the fact that it might become a farce if the championship is decided by this random 3-race sprint quali.

If in 2014, Rosberg won the championship only because of […]

Testing can be held in Barcelona with no problems. It’s convenient for the teams during pre-season, you can test and judge all kinds of set-ups depending on the different sectors and judge how a car performs […]

Although in the ‘overtaking problem’ I believe that the problem lies in the cars and not in the tracks… in this problem I think that the problem lies in the tracks themselves.

At no point in a circuit should […]

I’m not sure how to answer your question other that bad stewardship and bad design of run-off areas.
Other than that, I explained it to more detail in the comment above.
Basically just ‘have’ the tracks do the […]

In an ideal world, there shouldn’t be a discussion about track limits every single weekend. Nor there should be 100 5-second penalties every time a driver happens to leave the track during the race (like Hamilton […]

@eurobrun
They should stop using turquoise for Mercedes from now on, since it’s too similar with that Aston green, and they should assign Mercedes the colour black, since no one else uses it and frankly, black is […]

@millionus I think pretty much all teams focus their resources on the 2022-regs.
Apart from Mercedes-Red Bull who are the only 2 teams that will fight for the championship and they will bring upgrades, there is […]

10. Haas
Even if it was an actual Russian team and not an American one, that livery is very uninspiring… like a cheap knockoff of a GP2 team or something like that… Now call me crazy but I would prefer if […]

1. A record 23 races have been scheduled on the 2021 F1 calendar. How many rounds will be held this year?
21-22, expect 1 or 2 rounds to cancel
2. Following the latest aerodynamic rules changes, will this […]

@jerejj How about having most of Asian races in spring, all the European in summer, the Americas in September-October and then finish it off in November-December with what’s left from Asia, maybe Africa […]
