DRS is the most unfair device in sports. All the sports.
Get rid of it before it’s too late.
Completely agree with Keith.

One of my favourite tracks.
“A” configuration is epic, with 1.8 km straight and Signes bend at the end.
Verrerie S after the start could be also very challenging (if they use the fastest version), as well as […]

Fast, crazy dangerous. Long straights and 90° corners.
Remind me Phoenix, correct, but straights are longer.

I definitely don’t like it. 350 kph in between the walls and hystorical buildings is absolutely crazy.

They all look like each other.
No way.

I do agrre with Jules.
Elegant and simple.

Agree.
I knew about Peraltada, but the rest of the track is also jeopardized.
Turn 4 and 5 was a difficult quick-slow “S” combination. Now is a tasteless chicane.
Following the hairpin you had a wonderful […]

Thanks Glenn.

Absolutely agree with the article.
I went many times to Mugello circuit, which is close to my hometown.
When Ferrari used it as its own test track the venue was closed and it was no bad to look for a nice place […]

Still can’t understand why, among the enoromous progresses in terms of safety, they still didn’t nothing to avoid lifting of the cars by contact of wheels…In USA they did, in F1 not…

Well, good point…

Definitely couldn’t agree more.
Tyres compound is a secondary problem, first one is rules.
And managing tyre degradation absolutely is a skill manner for drivers.

Absolutely 1A, the closest to the original. Full Mistral straight would be a peculiarity, and Signes bend the same. Verriere was very challenging at the time, don’t know now, but a slower chicane would jeopardize […]

It seems in Italy we think the same thing at the same time! :-D

Like a lot the livery.
But where are the sponsors? Not romantic, I know, but without money HRT has a short life ahead. Hope I’m wrong…

I’m absolutely a fan of this track. The lay-out is unique, and isn’t only chicanes. Not to deny that Peraltada is the best attractive spot. I don’t see how they could make it feasible for current standards, but […]

Thanks Selidor.

I don’t want to raise suspicious but…why Force India was allowed to run the new car out of official test sessions? Were some demonstrative rounds allowed or is there some parts of the rule I’m not aware of?

In my opinion Hamilton should have given up. Massa is ahead and can decide the line. I agree in this case Massa missed to leave enough space to Lewis, and he was stupid there, because knowing Lewis he probably […]

Absurd. I’m afraid we will see a lot ov easy overtakes in the straight, no beaking battles.
It seems to me that this year cars are much more easy to get followed, and so overtaking would be possible even without […]

The lay out doesn’t seem boring.
Moreover, there are some interesting bends, with hard to find apex and interesting variation of altitude. It’s a pity there is also the typical “nonsense curves” as many […]
