9. So nearly a perfect dry race. Up until Button’s botched stop, we had no idea who would win, come second, third, fourth, any of them! Even when Nico had it in the bag, from third down all was in doubt. Fantastic […]
Icthyes commented on the post, Which of Paul Ricard's 167 tracks should F1 use? 9 years, 2 months ago
Using the chicane would defeat the point of having the straight there and discourage teams from running their cars in low-downforce trim, which would distinguish the track from many of the other venues on the […]

Those Bahrain compounds are softer than I expected. Could see a lot of degradation and an entertaining race, ditto Spain.

What keeps you awake at night?
Caffeine, because that mucks your sleep pattern up
If you could banish one thing from your life – for the rest of your life – what would it be?
If I banished anything I […]

I’ve always wondered why the gearbox rule is like this, but with the engine rules you can switch them as much as you like as long as you don’t use too many. It’s potentially the same for everyone, but I don’t see […]
Icthyes commented on the post, Alonso certain Ferrari can challenge for championship 9 years, 3 months ago
Once upon a time, there was a former Renault driver who moved to McLaren, but fell out with Ron Dennis and ended up at Ferrari. The move was initially a success, but then Ferrari built a bad car and he criticised […]

Now that’s a street circuit! If it’s as long and wide as said then it’s going to be pretty cool.
I don’t think running along the dual carriageway and then coming back is actually that unnecessary – with it, the circuit becomes roughly the same length as Sepang. Without it, it’d only be as long as Monaco and it’s deprived of a longer straight,…[Read more]

And F1 fans will be especially keen to see how Rubens Barrichello fares in his high-profile switch to America’s premier open-wheel racing series.
Sod that, GO SATO! ;-)
Pretty much resigned to Power winning […]
Icthyes commented on the post, Red Bull want "tangible" limits on spending 9 years, 3 months ago
Total red herring by Red Bull. However restricted things are, the top teams will still spend millions more than the smallest on the remaining areas where an advantage can be found. Less engines and gearboxes has […]
Icthyes replied to the forum topic 2012 Formula Renault UK Axed in the group Off-topic 9 years, 3 months ago
I see from that wiki page that they’re already supporting the BTCC at Silverstone, so it would make sense to add them to the bill for the whole season, except that their calendar doesn’t align with the BTCC’s […]

I hereby take back my words about Croft, the transition to TV has suited him. Not really fussed about not having more hours of analysis than there was racing.
Surprised to see so many minor quibbles posted, […]

6/10 + 1 for the last lap.

Omg JB every time he wins with those fingers, so annoying /sarcasm
Seriously, good win from the guy. I’m not a fan of his driving style and I don’t support him, but well-deserved.

Awful editing, like they couldn’t wait to get it over with.
Ben Edwards was pretty uninspiring and I’m not sure where he gets his reputation from. Him and DC together was like white noise.

I hope Grosjean’s paid enough or he’ll only have the Starter Edition.
Lotus_GP.exe has crashed, circuit error E20.
Lotus will fall behind with this new deal, everyone knows the Apple model is more suited […]

I think DRS would be more tolerated and the “cancelling the dirty air” argument accepted if it was used on short straights that wouldn’t produce overtaking except in the most clear-cut of car advantages (like […]

Oh it’s purely aesthetics, I liked the margins. Zooming it down brings them back (Google Chrome). And the whole thing looks a lot tidier when I come here on my Blackberry, I see. So it’s all okay really, just […]
