While getting female drivers into top-level seat might be good for young female hopefuls, it may be bad when given without big merits – and I don’t think Calderon’s CV deserves IndyCar drive.

When Giovanna […]

I’m going to watch. Depends on other activities whether I’m able to watch everything live but at least I’ll try my best to do result hiding in those cases.

For a possible reference, here’s the rankings what I found for arguably lead drivers in worst teams in each season:
2005 Minardi: Christijan Albers 14th
2006 Super Aguri: Takuma Sato 18th
2007 Spyker: Adrian […]

I don’t agree the talk that one-stoppers are boring and two-stoppers great. Tactically, I think the best we’ve seen when these tactics are close to each other – and I mean races where tactics have not influenced […]

I would expect some community work for Lewis.

I don’t think not changing tyres itself is a problem for Norris – but the rule which allows them to keep position.

So the solution would be that starting grid for the restart would have priority order.
1. […]

The problem seems that there isn’t anti-stall system in those cars. With it in use, Pourchaire would have probably recovered – a poor start surely, getting going when someone like 5th row goes past him.

It […]

Heinz-Harald Frentzen didn’t make pit stop in 2003 Brazilian Grand Prix. The race was of course stopped early. Frentzen had changed to spare car (which was filled up while other drivers had there qualifying fuel […]

I can see Norris as a popular pick. And he realistically he was so until lap 50 of the race.

However, I choose Carlos Sainz as my driver of the weekend. Got the front row and managed to lead. Probably used […]

I’m pretty sure that if the title race is open at the time of Abu Dhabi race the ratings are going to get higher than average ratings anyway.

1995 races between Britain and Italy were Germany, Hungary and Belgium.
2021 races between Britain and Italy were Hungary, Belgium and Netherlands.

So it was Hungary, Belgium and the home race of non-British […]

So would a commitment fee be like pay X sum of money and get it back as the time goes by. Let’s say competing 10 years would get all of it back, competing 5 years 50 % of the original fee and so on.

Sprints were pre-praised that there’s no need to save anything, drivers can push throughout, which is not possible on Sundays as fuel limit comes to the play and also too much pushing would mean more pit stops […]

I think Tsunoda was put into F1 seat too soon and at the same time, the current juniors are in the similar situation as Tsunoda was last year. Which is why they don’t want to repeat the situation with another […]

As Kimi Räikkönen was absent, Fernando Alonso was the oldest driver to take the start. Alonso became then 9th driver who has been both youngest and oldest starter in a Grand Prix. He was youngest for 2001 and 2 […]

I can recall two occasions where driver retired on the initial warm-up lap, then starting (and finishing) the restarted race after initial red flag: Riccardo Patrese in France 1989 and Heinz-Harald Frentzen in Australia 1996.

Mugello has banking in the last corner which obviously helped with overtaking on the front straight. The same thing is in Zandvoort so we have to see. Obviously the front straight is shorter in Zandvoort than in Mugello.

My ratings so far have same four drivers on the bottom, although in slightly different order.

Winners from same country, born on same year.
1906 Giuseppe Farina and Piero Taruffi (Italy)
1918 Johnnie Parsons and Bill Vukovich (USA)
1926 Jimmy Bryan, Pat Flaherty and Bob Sweikert (USA)
1929 Mike […]

Mazepin has got lots of critique (deservedly so) but I think Schumacher has done more damage so far. Mazepin has had more harmless spins while Schumacher having bigger crashes.
