Next thing, F1 mandates removable mudguards on the cars, to be set whenever wet tyres are fitted.

No need for monsoon tyres when visibility is a bigger problem than grip with wet tyres. I said that for few […]

I’m not in favor of the growing calendar and number of races but Wolff has an interesting point to keep the races attractive if each team have to run a young driver (less than 5 F1 starts for instance) at 2 rounds […]

Actually I believe the best chance was with about 18 laps to go and Hamilton was about 1.6 sec behind Verstappen. Could have been enough to prevent RedBull from responding to the pit with a good outlap and to have […]

I don’t agree, the FIA decided it was a race, then it deserves fastest lap and driver of the day (as well as all the associated articles on Racefans.net). If you make it a farce, play it until the end, no reason […]

Can also add the Extreme E racing that was brillant.

Yes or release your findings in step rather than all in to benefit from a competitive advantage longer. If the field is tighter, smaller performance gain will lead in bigger result gain.

The promoters of the inaugural Saudi Arabian Grand Prix have announced a slogan for their race: “Overtake the future”.

Isn’t it called getting ahead of themselves?

For Saudi, catching up would already be som […]

Why rely on people when you have good remote cameras?

I was going to comment that the point haul is a metric going against the top of the grid as there is a bigger gap in points at the top, but playing with some numbers, it appears it is rather the opposite and […]

@rodewulf not only on paper, Norris is arguably exceeding expectation and filling his part, but Ric sub par might indeed compensate for that.

Now that we know Alpine has a race winning car, it […]

It’s a bit like point for fastest leap which is for the worst of the top (having free pit stop).
This is a chance for drivers out of position to recover at a cheap cost, and unfortunately also being back a super […]

@robbie you’re right, I put aside the fact Pirelli actually proposed new compound that were rejected unanimously by the teams. Maybe that explain why teams like Mercedes and Aston are not too vocal about […]

Especially a year of continuity and budget cap.
I was annoyed by Pirelli having a say about the floor change that might “gift” RedBull a WDC/WCC. Yes Mercedes dominance was a bit boring but they deserved it and […]

I think what is impeding Georges is Georges himself and the enormous amount of pressure he puts on himself, especially to unlock his WDC count. He wants to keep it clean on first lap, doesn’t tangle but lose […]

Visually we probably can’t tell and will depend on the impression of speed and the repartition of speed loss (slow, medium, fast corners, straights…).
More interesting will be the impact on racing lines and […]

So I think some institutions need to rethink their approach on banning these tyre of messages.

Those Pirelli are definitely in the center of any F1 talks! Probably a lapsus or wishful thinking from the author.

This comment is highlighting exactly why the serie was needed and that there is a gap to fill. Extrem E being another one, @tommy-c your daughter might want to have a look at it. Some really impressive drives from […]

@ferrox-glideh @bascb Here is some more details and pictures.
Quite impressed how the hole is just a big opening running through, I was expecting some kind of diffusing effect, not just a plain hole. Will be […]

Probably that maximum exposure for a sponsor is reached by being on the car 75% of the time, and mentioned continuously the 25% it’s not.

With the budget cap coming into play, it’s definitely a good thing to focus some attention on the teams that brings good performance for money (AlphaTauri and Aston in particular). They might be interesting to […]
