@nickthegreek I totally agree, same thoughts here.

Hi, I strongly agree with your opinion on VET. The live timing even showed a gap of 0.014s with his team mate in the last but one lap (I think, or maybe the last lap; so there was probably a try at overtaking and […]

I did not like it much. But here’s what I propose, which would include a sprint race (order/days of FP could be swapped; see details after): the Saturday (morning) qualifications do determine the grid for Sunday, […]

@f1-fan I totally concur with you on this!

Two things we should not forget also:
first the MER had a very strong top speed today and pretty decent first sectors (which is mostly straight);
second RBR usually has flatter wings, which of course helps with […]

Two things coming to mind here:

1. Maybe ALO was actually right, if only too early: Honda’s approach has proved to be the only one able to compete the Mercedes’s engine. It maybe needed a different integration […]

So let me summarize here:
“During the hearing [Bottas] stated that in the past they have been losing time in the pit departure. So they tried something new, which was to leave in second gear.”
and it is this t […]

This is why you need masks that protect also against aerosols (so usually not the one you made yourself learning how to sew during lockdown… On the opposite, all masks will essentially protect you against b […]

I have understood quite the opposite: airborne particles seem to be established as the dominant pathway for COVID-19 transmission in public places, see the articles below. Scientific consensus on this is almost […]

@tifoso1989
Thanks a lot (didn’t seem to be friend with the FIA search tool yesterday!).
I had added another answer which does not appear, to say I was indeed expecting (after Monaco) a solid sector 2 from FER […]

@wsrgo @tifoso1989 Well, I believe HAM managed 2nd thanks to BOT’s tow, and LEC explicitly said he made several of mistakes in the corners (so in Sector 2). It seems most drivers made lots of mistakes in their […]

It seems the ranking is more about who got a slipstream and who didn’t…
As is testified by Leclerc saying his lap was pretty bad with several mistakes in the corners.

Well, one thousand kms is actually one way… ;)

I agree with @frood19, that’s really a bad analogy. Just trying to push 2-day week-ends down the throat.
As for me, definitely I won’t be making a thousand kilometers round-trip to see the F1 cars on track only […]

Hi,

I don’t know the solution, but what I can say is that when being at a track in the V10/V8 era, just having the F1 cars pass near you was a treat… Even the slowest one on track, you were just thinking t […]

First sentence should read “the difference is the amount and the type of management there is”, sorry for the non-sense writing… and pilots should be drivers…

@mysticus I agree. But the difference is then the proportion of management against other things: how much do you want of it. I think there’s too much now, including tyre management.
Now, I ‘ve never driven an F1, […]

@stefmeister Sorry regarding qualifs: I wanted to link it to tyre management again: on many tracks, the tyres won’t even allow full speed on ONE lap. You see drivers making a purple S1 and then two yellow sectors; […]
