@Stefmeister @dbradock I was in a similar position to each of you a few years ago, reassessing how I followed a sport that was pushing through changes that seemingly pleased nobody. Ironically it was Liberty’s […]

Lewis has been, and always will be, judged more harshly than any other driver on the grid. Unfortunately the comments I’ve read over the past few days has only confirmed my worries that F1 and its fanbase has a […]

Agreed – absolutely nothing in F1 is praised until it’s gone!

Both some positives and negatives to take away. It’s nice to see some variability in the grid tomorrow that we otherwise wouldn’t have seen. On the other side, it still doesn’t slot perfectly into the Grand Prix […]

It’s been the biggest flaw of F2/F3’s new format for sure. Taking risks in Sprint race 1 has double the downside as it ruins both race 1 and 2 if it goes wrong, and only gives a small amount of points if it goes […]

Fully agree on both of your comments. Though my main concern is that, if Spring Qualifying isn’t deemed a success in terms of creating more excitement, it still gets pushed through for economic reasons rather than […]

Some telling comments there.
I would have expected Giovinazzi to improve more in his third year – there’s some flashes of good performances but not enough to justify staying on.
Raikkonen again has some […]

It’s only a good thing for F1 that he’s stayed on. From here onwards, him winning races/titles will add more to his reputation moreso than any previous domination years. Plus the comment sections of his articles […]

Makes sense that there’d be a safety concern, and the impact on pit stop times is less than I expected. The 2 second pit stop, when broken into its individual steps, really doesn’t account for human reaction time […]

The changes look encouraging and show they’re willing to make improvements, although I’m astounded it took them this long.
What I like is the ambition of the changes – reconfiguring the first chicane is a […]

The pitfalls of F2’s new weekend format really got laid bare today. Obviously Monaco has little/no overtaking but there was absolutely no desire from most of the drivers to risk both Race 1 and 2 for a single […]

What a gorgeous one Ricciardo has! None of the others come close

@keithedin It’s been a few years, but I remember Richard Williams as being a serial complainer – that tweet is par for the course for him!

What I find most striking after reading about all these talented young drivers is how few F1 seats are up for grabs for them. Realistically if we say that Raikkonen and/or Giovinazzi, Ocon, Mazepin and Latifi are […]

I understand that FE/Agag have to be ambitious in how they appear to fans and the media, but they really do have too high an opinion of themselves. It’s pretty tiring watching them pretend they’re the titans of […]

This will have little to no impact on F1 in about 2 weeks or so as everyone forgets about this, not that that’ll stop the 200+ comments on “PC gone mad” or something like that!

I’ll never not find it funny how outraged some people get whenever the grid girls discussion come up. The previous article (comment section to be more specific) on grid girls that Keith linked is some quality […]

The people who call for more stringent rules are probably the most likely to complain about them the second they get introduced. This is the pinnacle of racing, let’s keep it that way by leaving the best drivers […]

What is it about Hamilton that gets everyone so riled up? He loses a near-certain win, and people have the nerve to criticise him for being frustrated?

I find it entertaining that when F1 initially banned certain radio messages, the WEC commentators and fans immediately went on the usual predictable rant of “WEC doesn’t do that, more pure racing etc etc”, but […]
