I enjoyed reading Dieters Part 2 report

I regret that I do not find the Paddock Diary – Romagna Grand Prix very enlightening – its more about Dieter than its about the Grand Prix and environs – this is the second and last time I will read his articles

It just seems to be sour grapes that Ferrari, McLaren and Renault are appealing the FIA’s ruling on RP. All F1 teams have copied the ideas of other cars – it’s Racing Point that have made those copying ideas wor […]

“I hope this grows a steering wheel by the time i’m ready to race”

I can think of a few other occasions when Vettel has shown disrespect “Multi 21” and bumping Hamilton twice in a Baku virtual safety car procession. I agree with Rosberg irrespective of his sterility. Hamilton wou […]

Ferrari is not in the position they should have been if they had started qualifying on the correct tyres – I expect Kimi to overtake Max at start and Vettel in due course to overtake all in front of him to end up […]

McLaren should stick with Honda – Honda is by far the biggest producer of engines in the world – think billions not millions per year. They have become specialists in all engine types from small to huge.
I have […]

Massa was not at fault – Vettel was as he became unsure what Massa intentions were when Massa allowed him space to overtake on a corner. Vettel chose not overtake twice when he could have and then had the gaul to […]

8 as well – tense slow burn for the bulk of the race

I gave it a 9 because like @hey it was the possiblities that could occur that had me looking at my timing screen and the TV with constant anticipation! Was LH going to drop several places after SV and others […]

LH for me – he made it look easy because he has flawless driving skills – he was a match for anyone that came close. MV cut through the field like a warm knife through butter until he came to LH. LH then just […]

If Rosberg had made some attempt to pass Hamilton I would say he was “deserving”. Rosberg was the only one that had a car that was capable of overtaking Hamilton – did he try ? No – he was cautious not […]

Without Hamilton the race would have had a boring ending. Hamilton is the one who risked not winning the race by strategically slowing down, much to the consternation and awe of Nico. Hamilton is the one who […]

It was not Hamiltons reliability that cost him the championship it was the reliability of the car/engine. However that is not to say that Rosburg was an unworthy champion – he has driven well and fast – he just […]

Me as well re US GP – rated it a 8 as I was always anticipating something unusual happening so it held my interest throughout – Max, Ricardo and Vettel in that order made it exciting at the end

I agree – its Hamilton. He made the race more exciting by racing a measured race. Could he have raced harder and left everyone way behind. I think he could have but realized that he has not got the luxury of […]

I think waiting for happen stance to make exciting and/or interesting races is for purists. Same as watching a 5 day cricket test match – boring unless you find everything else interesting about it except the […]

I agree if the entire grid is reversed it is stupid but if the reverse grid applied to groups of 5. i.e. The 1st 5 reverse with those who qualified 6 to 10th so the 6th qualifier starts 1st the 7th starts 2nd,8th […]
