Also. Drivers took more and more risks now with asphalt runaways. This was pretty clear on Hubert crash.

It’s cool to discuss if the walls could be 1km away from the track and if every wall could be p […]

Yep. I think there’s only one incident of somebody hitting a car parked, in 1980 with regazzoni.

In dry weather there’s in absolutely no risk in leaving a car parked like Bottas was in Brazil last year. […]

I think they shouldn’t have done none of that. They should just leave the car where it was, the risk of that was much smaller than the risk of packing the cars all together. Due to that we have a much more serious […]

I’ve been saying this for a long time.
The biggest risk in F1 right now are collisions, not alone accidents.
The risk of collision increases a lot when all the cars are packed together, because that’s when a […]

I don’t get the cricticism on Stewart on this. Stewart is basically stating facts, this era is completely different from before. The Mercedes dominance is something never seen before, not because of the gap to […]

I don’t buy for the “We are play safe”. No, you’re not. If the car is close to a guard-rail or to a wall it means you assume there’s no risk of hitting there. Either because the corner speeds around are slow, […]

If that was 25 years ago, it was the Europe GP of 1995, IMO one of the best races in the last 40 years.
Also, I miss the warm up also, that some driver/team find a completely different and perfect setup and […]

It’s not logic to compare tecpro with Armco or walls. The comparison should be with tyre barriers, and yes they are slightly better.

The issue in the F2 crash is the time marshals took to help. This is b […]

I completely agree with you, but F1 is not managed in order to make sense, it’s managed to what gives gains or not to certain teams.

Although agreeing with you, I don’t understand why teams try to qualify in […]

I really like Russell. I think his qualifying skills is one of the best in F1 right now.
But in race he is being a litle bit disapointing. I think the issue is not really the race trim itself, but the way he […]

Both can be true. Hamilton behavior was stupid and unnecessary, that’s why he got a penalty. He still managed to get 15 points. And he will probably be the world champions because he is right now the best Mercedes driver

Having the safety car line (in Mugello it was in the start/finish line) after a long straight will always cause this kind of behavior. The Safety Car line should be close to a corner (either the last one or the first one).

Because he wants to.
What I see in the pictures are three drivers that do what they want and don’t care about people opinions.

Completely agree with you.
If Masi was around in the 60s he would be saying:
“No need to remove Telegraph poles from the side of the track. Just keep inside the track and you have no problems”

How I miss Charlie…

So. A big crash happened, he prefers to claim that 12 of the 20 best drivers in the world all did the same miscalculation, but there was nothing else wrong.
Comparing the speed of cars […]

Another serious crash caused by something ironically called “Safety”-car

Can we finally assume that having the cars together racing for position at the same time is the most dangerous thing in current days, and […]

It would be interesting to learn from this, and close the pitlane everytime there is a SC.
For two reasons:
– safety: if a safety car is deployed, it’s important that the cars slow down imediatelly to a safe […]

Mercedes did by far the best engine when this era begun and they had a lot of merit on that, but all the rest is still a result of that huge start gap.

With engine frozen, and limited testing the others had a […]

Great. If team principals don’t like it means it’s gonna be fun to watch.
According to team principals good racing is what we saw in spa, predictability at 100% and cars cruising all the time.

Why allow free racing and put at a irrelevant risk the bazillionth victory from the team. What’s the purpose for Mercedes to put so many millions in a team that makes all the efforts to reduce the interest in t […]
