@clive-allen Not sure about ‘inventing new lines’ in Brazil lol, iirc Verstappen said that Hamilton was using the same lines as he was and was faster so he wouldn’t have got past him.

Max has a lot of poten […]

@unitedkingdomracing @pyon @bascb @offdutyrockstar @clive-allen @mazdachris @neilosjames @george It’s curious how this idea that some publications should be left out of the round-up keeps recurring. Particularly […]

@clive-allen I understand the point you’re making but it’s not censorship. There will be publications already which Keith deliberately excludes. Censorship would be preventing people from reading The Sun. […]

Excellent correction @clive-allen. To read that Verstappen ( or any other F1 Driver for that
matter ) said something specific about F1….but we later discover that in reality he was
being far less precise […]

@clive-allen, that is very funny!

@clive-allen Fair comment. I fully agree it’s the quality of the racing that is a big component. Battles, confrontations…absolutely. That is why I support them having changed the age and experience regs […]

@clive-allen I’m not sure BE was thinking F1 was literally too easy, but was probably thinking the hiring of any 17 year old, no matter his name or talent level, can give a perception to the general audience that […]

@clive-allen My thanks for your encouraging words and thoughts.

@clive-allen Forgot to tag you, sorry

@clive-allen
I respectfully disagree with your Cotd. You hated the wings when they appeared because they were ugly, not because they were wings. If the wings would have appeared in the 60’s in their more eye […]

@clive-allen You’re welcome :-)

@clive-allen Yeah, I guess. Though I think that’s rather more true today than decades ago (which isn’t to say you could win on a shoestring budget ‘decades ago’ – you’d just….be more likely to do so, I guess?)

@optimaximal @clive-allen Just throwing money at it and nothing else hasn’t worked out very well either though – ask Toyota.

@gt-racer, @clive-allen, thank you both, I stand corrected but suspect the FIA made it clear they regarded the fan as a “moveable aerodynamic device”. I had forgotten the large time difference between the use in […]

@clive-allen, well I remember them from the D type Jag. they seemed to work then and looked very “Rocket age”, if they work the’re good.

@clive-allen the reasoning is sound but that seat is simply too good for Esteban. Imagine if he wins 2-3 GPs due to reliability issues. Can you imagine Alonso or other drivers like Hulkenberg, Grosjean, Perez, […]

@clive-allen great story. Just one question: If Keke gets the ride, will they continue to measure the Mercs in horsepower or will they switch to reindeerpower?

Once thing’s for sure, kids around the world […]

@clive-allen I don’t think Max is the kind of guy that would leave his employer in the cold. Red Bull have been very nice to Max and one way or another, he’ll get his chance with them or another team.

Well said @clive-allen . Although I’ve always felt Clark was best. :)

Of course, that kind of comparison is always fraught with peril considering the impossibility of ever having any head to head comparisons […]

@Clive-Allen Superb comments. I’ll bring the golden laurel wreath.
