Red Bull team-mates won consecutive races for the first time since European and British Grands Prix in 2010.

Latifi didn’t actually serve the penalty during the race so 30 seconds was added to the time. He finished between Bottas and Schumacher, but the penalty put Haas drivers and Hamilton ahead of him.

It was fifth time in total as polesitter failed to start, with the following having suffered the fate earlier:
Jean-Pierre Jarier, Argentina 1975
Didier Pironi, Germany 1982
Michael Schumacher, France […]

Mechanical problem between the seat and steering wheel.

In my opinion, sometimes the difficulty of overtaking increases the excitement. Think about 2018 race here. Ricciardo suffered from massive loss of power and in one point four drivers were in queue behind him. […]

The speed difference between car having DRS open and car having DRS closed is much bigger than it was when overtaking was more about just slipstreaming and engine power, so you have a point here.

This just confirms that the worst thing FIA did with hybrid engines was the instant development freeze with token system.

Great news that Interlagos will stay in the calendar. Not so good news that Grand Prix title is changed – I think races should always be named after country unless there’s multiple races in the same country. To […]

* McLaren has now 5555,5 points in their history.
* Ricciardo had two fastest laps this year, both were done on the final lap and both robbed a grand chelem from the race winner.

Felipe Nasr won his return race in WeatherTech Championship.

DNQs affected it back then but in 1989 Brazilian Grand Prix two drivers had their first start (Herbert and Grouillard) while in French Grand Prix there was five (Gachot, Donnelly, Bernard, Alesi and […]

I think it’s too late for now. But the fairest option to this would be two groups of ten drivers, with each team having one in both.

Seven best from each group advancing along with faster of 8th placed drivers.

Bottas has had more bad luck this year but 110 points is too much to speculate on that. Lewis would still be leading if he had zero points in Silverstone and Nürburgring while Bottas would have gone to win – and […]

I think W Series should be backing up as many series as possible. Of course F1 is the pinnacle of auto racing but at the same time there are many other series. If W Series helps a driver getting a paid drive in […]

Race 1: Saturday morning (F3 2020 spot)
Race 2: Saturday afternoon (F2 2020 spot)
Race 3: Sunday morning

I assume it’s like that. No idea how they work around reverse-grid races.

Within a calendar year, the latest ever Grand Prix held in Europe. Previously 1951 Spanish Grand Prix (Oct 28) was the latest and 1997 European Grand Prix is also later than 2020 Portuguese Grand Prix.

Sainz is one of the best drivers in tricky conditions. He just hasn’t got that much credit since he has never driven race-winning car.

I found it strange to have difference between warning and reprimand. Russell got a warning in FP3 and now it was reprimand.

As far as I know you can rack as many warnings as possible but three reprimands is a grid penalty.

Current penalty point system is too lenient when it comes to really serious incidents. I’m talking about deliberate collisions like Vettel in Baku or Perez against Sirotkin in Singapore. Or just big brainfades […]

Certain tracks have practice starts banned for race day anyway. Red Bull Ring and Silverstone come to my mind, only practice starts are done after each free practice.
