@pironitheprovocateur Spygate 2007 springs to mind…

I agree that he’s not in everybody’s top 5, because that’s entirely subjective. I also agree that he has flaws as a driver and during the 2008-2012 seasons, as you have mentioned, these flaws came to the fore more […]

If you’re going to use statistics to support your arguments you’ve got to at least be accurate. His last nine poles are Britain 18, Hungary 18, Belgium 18, Singapore 18, Japan 18, USA 18, Brazil 18, Abu Dhabi 18, […]

Hamiltons pole-win conversion rate is by no means the worst, of drivers with 5 or more poles he sits 6th. The order is Ascari, Alonso, Button, Schumacher, Vettel and Hamilton. In terms of the absolute number of […]

Make that 7 teams – I believe Haas have their base in Banbury.

The whole winning every season thing is used both a stick to beat him and also a statistic to prove him as a great. It’s true that the vast majority of his career he’s had one of the top 3 cars but I think it wou […]

Max did have a good race but the only reason he finished 20 seconds ahead of Daniel was because Daniel spun, not because Max was exceptionally quicker. Furthermore, he was fortunate to be in front of Vettel […]

He was partnered with Button, the reigning champion, in 2010 hence the number 2. Though I don’t think 2010 was his best year by any means, he bottled it when he was leading the championship in Monza and Singapore. […]

I think that Spain and Austria last year were examples of them very literally racing wheel to wheel…

I think it’s referring to times when cars from 5 different teams were knocked out in Q1 and then one of those cars went on to finish on the podium.

I don’t see how it’s that different to Alonso and Vettel being given a veto on the choice of their team mate. Why, as you said, should a team pour millions of pounds into developing the car only to be blocked from […]

Maybe it’s just a really sophisticated camo livery like red bull ran last year…

Valtteri gets to grips with the ‘state of the art’ Mercedes simulator

In my opinion that should really be the Vettel effect as it was he who spent most of the season in 2014 driving within himself (not taking anything away from ricciardo that season) to activate a performance clause […]

Surely pandering to the people of a generation is exactly what any sport has to do to survive, otherwise you’re going to find it very difficult to generate new fans. In fact, some would say that the fact the sport […]

@sravan-pe the pair did not make further contact after Hamilton went wide, Hamilton had to take avoiding action when rejoining but they didn’t make contact there

sorry, this wasnt meant to be a reply

I think that this race demonstrates to the conspiracy theorists of the first 4 races that luck will swing both ways over the course of a season. Hindsight is a wonderful thing, and it is so much easier to look […]

@freelittlebirds To complain Rosberg is using Hamiltons wariness against him completely ignores the fact that this is exactly what Hamilton has been doing ever since Belgium 2014. USA and Japan last year spring to […]

@joshgeake
I beg to differ that staying at home and watching the television coverage is a superior experience to witnessing the race itself. I’ve been to 3 British gp’s (2008, 2011, 2014), and each time that I’ve […]
