Carlitox replied to the topic F1 TV: Are you signing up? in the forum
Formula One 5 years, 2 months agoYes, so much yes. With the death of Canal F1 Latin America, well, Latin America got screwed hard, as F1 went back to Fox Sports and they put 11 races behind a second paywall. F1 TV can’t be worse.

Carlitox replied to the topic What do you want to ask the F1 drivers at pre-season testing? in the forum
Formula One 5 years, 2 months agoMassive thanks for asking my question Keith. Interesting response, since the target of each protection system is different (the Windscreen aims to deflect showers of small debris, typical on oval pileups, while the Halo aims to deflect loose tyres). He may have a point there.
Best of luck on the coming days!

Carlitox replied to the topic What do you want to ask the F1 drivers at pre-season testing? in the forum
Formula One 5 years, 3 months agoYou won’t be short of Halo questions, I’m sure of it. However, one thing I’d like to ask most of the grid is whether they’d prefer the canopy style windshield IndyCar has been testing, and of course why or why not. Maybe they could compare and contrast it and mention how it’d be better or worse than the current halo. And another question could be,…[Read more]

Carlitox commented on the post, Compare Ferrari's new 2018 F1 car with last year's chassis 5 years, 3 months ago
Exactly. Plus the idea is to throw as much air as you can to the diffuser, which is the most effective source of downforce. It’s not only that the inlets are tiny, it’s also that they’re high up and leave room for […]

Carlitox commented on the post, Force India not being sold to energy drink company 5 years, 3 months ago
I do agree it’s good and catchy. But if three parties own a team, I don’t see them agreeing to name the whole organization after only one of them. Sahara would have massive publicity the other two parties won’t. […]

I’ll be honest, I’d rather keep it as it was, although we know the site has expanded vastly, the name was already legendary as the most easily recognisable, legitimately independent websites on F1 and other […]

I’ll never understand why this wasn’t used as a Safety Car when they began being used frequently. How cool would that have been? If they used it now bet some drivers would crash out just to hear the thing.

Formula E 5 years, 5 months agoWell, Punta del Este has been confirmed as the replacement for the Brazilian round. Never been so happy to be wrong. Guess you never know!

Carlitox replied to the topic 2017-18 Formula E calendar in the forum
Formula E 5 years, 5 months agoI like how the media here are sorta hyping Brazil being dropped from the schedule since it could mean Punta del Este would be back. As if. Unfortunately, childish government disputes scared FE away from Uruguay. I bet they’re just fine with Buenos Aires and Santiago.
Don’t get me wrong, I wish so hard Punta could be back on the schedule, but as I…[Read more]

I’ve tried the Formula Ultimate (a 2017 styled fictional car) in Automobilista and it features an option to put up a halo. I dunno if it’s due to the limitations of the game but I tested it on the Red Bull Ring […]

That article on McLaren’s third pedal from 1997 is very much worth reading. Lots of interesting insight on one of the last displays of inventiveness in F1. Made me remember the fuzz, I was very little and I didn’t […]

I miss Jev. He could’ve done a decent job in Kvyat’s position alongside Ricciardo. I don’t think Jev was better than Max, but he was miles ahead of Kvyat, that’s for sure. He deserved more F1 time. In fact he […]

Carlitox commented on the post, US GP drivers presentation was "a bad copy" of Indy 500 – Alonso 5 years, 7 months ago
My thoughts exactly. I liked it a lot but I do reckon if we do this every race, it’s going to get old very, very fast. But I wouldn’t mind at all to see it again in Austin next year.

Carlitox commented on the post, Ferrari failures are "bad luck" – Horner 5 years, 7 months ago
Indeed. If Vettel hadn’t done that and just kept his cool behind Hamilton, he would’ve won, because Hamilton’s headrest was going to fail anyway. Every sensible tifoso was fuming at Vettel that day, and maybe still is.

You may have gotten confused with Jaime Alguersuari, think he is from Catalunya. Also Oriol Servià.
