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 […]

12 races (more than half of the entire calendar) scheduled after the summer break in just 3,5 months !
9 of them packed in just 11 weekends !

I feel for the teams and their staff…

Sure it makes sense as you put it but i brought it up just as one of many similar examples over the years. Consistency matters for sure but so do big results, especially for midfield teams.

A driver can score […]

Re COTD: Sure consistency is important, but come on.. Hulkenberg in his 9 years in F1 blew many podium opportunities (off the top of my head in can recall Azerbaijan 17 & Germany 19 during the last years). Plus he […]

Kvyat, Hulkenberg, Magnussen & Grosjean had good careers, plenty of races, some highlights (podiums, well bar Hulkenberg), some low points, but at this moment all of their replacements look like more promising […]

@jerejj First of all, if Liberty decided to plan the calendar according to my plan for example, then they should have done it well in advance before the original draft (because right now no race promoter that […]

When Liberty’s published their original 2021 calendar, they stuffed most of the venues in the last third of the season.
In the 3 months of spring there were supposed to be held just 6 GPs, while in the 3 months […]

@jerejj The paddock circuit doesn’t have the run up to turn 4 and the consequent corners, either the very good downhill slope that the normal circuit has, or the curved straight that leads to the bumpy chicane […]

@f1frog I get your point, but Silverstone without the last 3 laps would have been rated even lower – it was very very boring – so it would have probably rated somewhere in the 4.5-5.5 scale. The last 3 laps were […]

Regarding the COTD
the British GP was rated way too low. Admittedly, the majority of the race wasn’t great, but in ten years time, nobody will remember the main part of the race; it will always be remembered as t […]

@jerejj Why is it unnecessarily complicated? Bahrain is the only track on the calendar at the moment that has an option to race at both layouts (or more) and an option to race in the day or in the night, at no […]
