Yes. As a Ferrari fan, their driver pairing drives me nuts. This could’ve been one of those “championship decided way too early in the season” years in Alonso’s hands.

how badly Williams seemed to be affected by losing Adrian Newey early in the year

I think it was losing Newey and Hill. Adrian often praised how important Damon’s feedback was in developing the car. These two […]

I read that he was slower than Hulkenberg but faster than Palmer, hardly a glowing endorsement

If that is actually true, then it is indeed a glowing endorsement. People seem to forget how hard acclimatization […]

but I don’t get the excitement about Sainz/Hulkenberg pairing

Oh, I do. It will finally be the end of the Hülkenberg hype, once and for all. Can’t wait.

Saying you can’t be against because it would save driver’s lives is like saying “you can’t be against canceling F1 forever because it would save driver’s lives.”

Nobody is against saving lives but there has to […]

Well, I guess we should ban every driver who ever made contact with another car, then. I for one haven’t had an accident in 20 years of driving. How are these guys considered good drivers?

Race was okay, the end was exciting. Solid 6, I’d say.

We shouldn’t complain, we should vote better.

7.5 means a great race. Not perfect, but really good. Look at that “Top 10 worst races” list here, #10 is a 4.9, which is practically the definition of an average […]

Williams had the best engine in 94/95, Benetton had the best car in 94/95 and the same engine as Williams in 95.

no punishment was ever delivered by the FIA authorities as I best recall…. I think the last blatant one involved Damion Hill and Michael Schumacher.

The last blatant one was Schumacher and Villeneuve and r […]

After seeing this rating, I think I finally understand what most fans want. Drama.

Well, yeah. It’s F1. It’s always been about drama, unexpected outcomes, rivalries between heroes and villains.
This is […]

Finally, finally, finally. 9/10. THIS is Formula One.

Finally.

That’s standard, no contract required.

When a photographer at a concert takes a photo of the band, they can not use it without permission from the photog.

I am 100% cautiously excited for qualifying this weekend.

I’m pretty sure Fernando appreciates you taking time of your busy schedule to write that comment.

Sure, because that wasn’t a plot from Briatore/Symonds to avoid Alonso’s contractual cancelation clause in case they can’t deliver a car that wins a race.

Not so bad, got quite interesting at the beginning. No rewatch potential though. Solid 4/10.

Interesting part started at 00:01:03 left on the clock and the outcome was, well, extremely predictable.

They really need to bring back cumulative or one-shot qualifying.
