Brake testing or doing unexpected moves have big advantage for the leading car. If the first car slows even a little bit that would make the second car, that follows very closely, to brake a fraction of a second […]

@matiascasali Not exactly. I’ve seen a documentary about F1 cars and they said that while some F1 technologies are making their way to the road cars lots of these technologies have been developed for other […]

Singapure 2013. Vettel needed a gap for a pitstop so he started driving laps about 2s faster than the rest. The result was that everyone started to look for proofs that Red Bull is cheating by analyzing the engine […]

@d3v0 “Even though he said it during the team meeting that he did, and Hamilton wasn’t afraid to tell the media this.” It souds like you were present on the said meeting or have a transcript

Well, to Hamilton’s credit, this time it wasn’t the car’s telemetry

No, you’re not the only one

@sudd If you read the article on the link you provided, rather than just watching the clips you’ve notice that lawrence makes a valid point. The author of the article concludes “Both went for the same piece of […]

They have a steering wheel too

Hamilton had the right to the racing line but also he knew that Rosberg was there so he had a choice to keep the racing line and risk collision or live some more space and avoid a potential damage to his car and […]

You take the opportunities as they come and usually the sooner the better.

@f190 And all this shows Hamilton’s character when he runs from a closed meeting to the press to broadcast what has been said in a circumstance that assume confidentiality.

Agree with you. Hamilton played “chicken” far too often without serious consequence. It was long overdue for this to happen and this time he came worse off.

@pastaman why is the second lap different from the rest?

Ha, exactly my thoughts too.

Struggling to decide who’s worst: The incompetent idiots with dangerous weapons or the low life politicians trying to score cheap political points out of a tragedy.

Yes, it’s called mirrors

Red Bull were saying that they are the best of the rest. The recent achievements of Williams, with two podiums for Bottas, and the excellent recoveries for Alonso, who gave Vettel a hard time although (if the info […]

@keithcollantine
I didn’t write the comment to question the legality of that move. Hamilton’s pass was legal and that’s why he wasn’t punished for it, and the same goes for Rosberg’s mistake.
However, Rosberg […]

Hamilton had 4 wins in a row. In two of these races he “destroyed” Rosberg and in the other two he still managed to win although, in his mind, he had a slower car. That would be a big confidence boost for any […]

I’m not sure about exact numbers but my impression is that most of the times this year Hamilton goes after Rosberg in Q3. Unless they have an agreed system about it, this favors Hamilton.
