Absolutely the same thought!

Hungary, like Silverstone is a front limited circuit. Although it is a gross simplification of a complex situation in 2021 Mercedes have been able to challenge Red Bull at more front limited circuits (Silverstone […]

@mg1982 I think the other reason for the red flag besides the barriers was the car was still ‘alive’ and required Red Bull engineers to sort it before the stewards could handle the removal.

I’m in the @robbie camp of optimism here, time for a change. If the next ten years mirrors 2000-2009 with five different driver champions and four different constructor champions that will be job well done.

@robbie Agreed, as a commenter astutely observed above it looks like a Dallara spec chassis interpretation of the new rules (I’ll just add I have a lot of respect for Dallara!). I do like the classic side pods t […]

Thanks anon, nice insight as always. That is eye-opening, and what a nightmare for the engineers……on the upside more regulation might create more opportunity for bright creative minds to find get-around-loop holes…..

@hunocsi If the new formula works as intended ‘IF’…hopefully DRS can be ditched. Introduced as a temporary a sticking plaster because a previous formula’s aero rules made overtaking more difficult has now been in […]

We have deferred tickets from last year that we purchased in 2019, having been regulars for the three day event for over 10 years now the introduction of the new trial format for the weekend this year has us […]

@robbie I do hope they take GR like most others.

Bottas has been unlucky this season with the GR crash and the Monaco outs debacle that has cost him a lot of points.

@maxv ‘….and answering direct questions from the media.’ There you go finished your sentence and it now makes sense!

@robbie I said nothing of the sort in my post. Just the observation that George and Lewis would take points off each other. On the very big assumption that we see a repeat of this season with two closely matched […]

So Ferrari surprises you? They have always historically been a team more interested in the WDC than the WCC.

It’s going to be Bottas for 2022 why on earth would it not be? Why would Merc risk a 2022 WDC challenge by having a second driver who will take more points off Hamilton? You don’t see Red Bull doing tha […]

@frood19 I don’t think you are alone, Jolyon Palmer made this exact point on the BBC’s Chequered Flag podcast. I’m feeling it as well, last year at least the weather made things interesting and we’ve been spoilt […]

It’s remarkable on this site now the number of posters below articles who seem unable to comprehend that the comments from Hamilton that they construe as ‘whining’ are because the media are asking direct quest […]

Please!

@matthijs It’s interesting to compare the qualifying times from 2020 (Austrian edition not the Styrian!) to 2021, Max’s Pole time is very close to his 2020 time whereas Bottas 2021 time is around 1 second slo […]

This reality distortion is extremely amusing!

The best camera view was from the cameraman just past the McLaren garage as Bottas comes sideways up the pit lane. Very odd.

Which is exactly why jump starts are policed with sensors to penalise an anticipatory rather than actual response from drivers. The most recent example of this is Bottas at the 2017 Austrian GP, his start was […]
