The reason given was because the teams were concerned about packing up all the trucks and equipment and moving by road from Portimão in Algarve to Imola and getting there in time, as I believe teams usually start […]

Apparnetly the compressed format is to give an extra day for teams to get from Portugal GP to Imola as it’s considerable distance and teams will be moving by road.

Seem to remember reading that they had to rip up the old circuit and plant trees in order to acquire planning permission due to amount of forest they needed to clear for new layout.

The old circuit was […]

Be nice if F1 reintroduced the European Grand Prix as an annual event which always visited a different circuit each year, choose circuits few years in advance (like Ryder cup), give circuits time to prepare and […]

Neither Donnington or Brands have Grade 1 licenses.

Although it seems like Ferrari were clearly (but unprovablely) breaking the rules, you have to admire the imagination and precision engineering it’d must’ve taken to make that work.

Hopefully we’ll get a similar broadcast deal here in Canada when current rights agreement with TSN/RDS expires at the end of this season. Currently we have to put up with adverts (as a small concession, we do get […]

Just to add this with regard to Montreal specifically (as I’ve lived here the last few years now).

I think there are a few reasons why the organizers of the race would be reluctant to agree to a move. One is […]

Who is that?

Been reported on various other news sites as the new contract runs for until 2024 (5 years).

I think WEC currently has more fundamental issues for keeping viewers interested, in so far as they have a premier class that is essentially two categories in itself, Toyota and the other LMP1 teams. (I fear the […]

*latter, not later

Are there teams running single cars, or do each of a team’s drivers have separate sponsorship necessitating unique overalls?

The later, you see it quite often in lower formula’s. Especially when the driver is h […]

It’s quite possible her sponsors agreements have stipulations about their logos been on cars etc if she ever obtained a race seat, and maybe that’s not possible with W series. From what I understand the W series […]

Well the TSN/RDS contract expires at the end of this season so hopefully FoM will get back the online rights in Canada for next season onwards (seems to what has happened in other countries where existing deals […]

I don’t think it’s mutually exclusive. Even if there is a proper distribution of money amongst all teams, it’s still important that their final position in championship is accurately reflected based on their […]

It was an entertaining race to watch. It would’ve been a great victory for Verstappen, I can’t remember the last time in a dry race where a driver made as many on track passes to take the lead.

As for the […]

Yeah, from the clips that are played out on air during the race I can see how a lot of people think Lewis is just whinging lots to his engineers, but when you see a full transcript like this you can see there is a […]

The points system was overhauled to the current system after a lot of people criticising the old system for the situation in 2008 where Hamilton was champion but Massa had more wins, so they shook the system up to […]

Sorry Bridge, but ditching the MGU-H so soon after forcing the manufacturers to develop it would be a case of the FIA MISmanaging F1 as it usually does.

Agree, and it’s not just Ferrari and Mercedes, all the […]
