Lance shouldn’t be in F1, but he’s improved enough to make a decent #2 driver. If ever they have a championship winning car, whoever they put in the #1 seat won’t mind having Lance as his teammate, I think.

“Where might the next new home winner come from?” — Stoffel is gonna get the Williams seat, wow Mercedes so hard that he gets to replace Hamilton when he retires, then lead the Belgian Grand Prix from the start […]

So what’s the highest this record has actually been? Rosberg got to 23 before he won the WDC, Mansell 29 or so (dunno when exactly he clinched it), Prost about 21. Guess it’s Mansell then.

I suspect the main problem is that very, very few people watch Formula E, and those few who do all watch F1 as well, so for Mercedes there is no publicity to gain from taking on FE as well. Also, the qualifying […]

Politics is half the sport :) What else would we be reading articles about?

Indeed. The first two laps of races are always exciting, and they last about as long as qualifying actually lasts without all the waiting.

Instead of one qualifying race, they should have five consecutive mini […]

I think most likely Toto was telling the truth, but then he or someone else at Mercedes realised it was not smart to say it out loud. Better to keep Red Bull thinking that they have to keep developing this year’s […]

This makes me laugh. My first reaction when I saw this new (to F1) Tilke track was “at least it doesn’t have his typical pig tail corner”, but now here it is :)

I don’t like his whiny voice either, but it’s important to note that he was 100% right. Could Mercedes have timed that pit stop any worse?

btw I accidentally clicked “report comment” instead of “reply”, apologies P. Petterson & mods.

Noone is able to overtake anyone in Monaco. That really means nothing.

An overtake in Monaco? What are you smoking?

You really haven’t noticed a Mercedes tendency to undersell their chances?

Does fanboost divide opinion? That’s strange, I’ve never heard anyone say they like the concept. There are two things about Formula E that are universally detested and could easily be fixed: Fanboost and the […]

I haven’t seen any expert who isn’t a Brit like Russell who doesn’t think it was entirely Russell’s fault.

It’s only the USA’s 42nd city, according to Wikipedia, not the 7th. I wonder why F1 was so keen to race there. Except for the TV series Miami Vice, it’s a completely unknown place. I don’t know a single building […]

I’m surprised and somewhat disappointed with Horner’s diplomatic choice of words. He should have said that Szafnauer is a sore loser who’s gone delusional.

Useless poll. Everyone wants DRS gone, the question should be whether we want to get rid of it immediately, or wait until the cars and/or circuits have been ‘fixed’ so cars can pass each other without this […]

Um, Vandoorne was an average 0.25s behind Alonso, in his rookie season. Alpine will be glad if Ocon can stay that close in his 4th season.

I think he’s already dragging his car to places it doesn’t belong. Don’t expect much more. The man’s a beast though.
