Regardless of this inter team spat, which in itself speaks for itself….
Max races Lewis differently to how he races Leclerc.

I’m in agreement with the consensus on this one. While it is a spectacle to watch and it’s great to see the passion, there is an element of the Dutch fans that go too far and from what I’ve heard, they aren’t F1 […]

I had a chat last year with a Dutch F1 supporter and he said that the crowd at the home races of Austria, Belgium and particularly Zandvoort have a lot of football supporters who got behind Max. Regardless of […]

@sumedhvidwans Gotta ask yourself why there are so many “Verstappen rules!” If it was a red flag standing start would the 2nd place be allowed to draw up alongside 1st before the lights went out? No. That’s the […]

@bascb It happens exactly the same way the lead car warms its tyres and brakes behind the safety car! Drop back, then weave, close up and brake. The lead car can’t draw alongside the safety car. Its an example of […]

Good! I thought it was ridiculous in Abu Dhabi and even more so in Bahrain. I’m liking these race directors. The white line is the edge of the track and stay behind means stay behind!

@peartree I agree the scales are a bit strange but I’ll take you up on Hamilton. He was pressuring Perez on the SC restart BEFORE Perez started losing power.
To quote Perez “we were holding off Lewis, which was […]

@georgeod A lot of lives outside of this situation are going to be wrecked. Best thing they can do is spend their new gained time campaigning vigorously for the end to this madness. Gotta say, my opinion of Danny […]

Although there is a chance Mercedes HPP are running conservatively to prove out their re-worked concept reliably. That’s what Honda did in ’21, all the way to Barcelona if memory serves.

So, a detail here is Toto stated Merc were overwinged due to a lack of parts.
Whether you believe that or not is another matter!

Aston Martin stated that they needed to focus on the car not the PU as Mercedes […]

@qeki Juju’s Rokit sponsorship probably took a big hit after last years Danish F4 performance! I’m hoping she does better. Something was off about that withdrawal from US F4 and her performance in Danish F4 […]

Fascinated to see how Juju Noda does. She had a great first season in Danish F4, then a mysterious and sudden pull out of US F4 followed by a disastrous second Danish F4 season. Flashes of brilliance but didn’t […]

@sebsronnie you are correct. Specifically, KMAG said he’s never take another drive that had no chance of winning. He obviously missed the sport despite wins and podiums in IMSA (I think it’s IMSA)

The […]

@keithcollantine Can you please add an edit function. I hate reading my typos and not being able to correct them!

@jeanrien has the best take I’ve read for a while.

People tend to generalise to such an extend they miss what’s on front of their noses. So….. for those of who who the above applies to:

Mercedes have seen […]

I’m completely over arguing this with pepes. Suffice to say I echo Hamilton’s sentiment. No driver should have to go through that again. Anything that removes the ability of outside forces to (albeit […]

Seen them struggle a couple of times before with new designs. Don’t underestimate their ability to get on top of the problems, and for those of you who think they are sandbagging, yes, the PU is turned down, but […]

@mashiat it looks like a tribute to Valentino Rossi, with the neon 44 front and back and neon front highlights. Lewis is a massive Rossi fan. He did a feature where Rossi drove his car and he drove Rossi’s bike […]

Mercedes had the same problem last year. Not really understanding the package or how to optimise it. By the mid season upgrade they’d nailed it and had the fastest car at the end of the season.
I suspect this […]
