Pretty sloppy analysis by Sky. Nowhere do they show that he was actually stationary in the first frame. It would look exactly the same if he was already rolling in the first frame of the video.

It really isn’t a problem. His car moves in several frames before the lights go out. We don’t need to be more accurate than that.

The outcome is always considered when handing out a penalty. When Grosjean got himself a race ban in 2012? That was ‘just’ accidental wheel banging. That happens regularly and often goes unpunished. Itas the […]

I think he deserved it, even more so than Lewis.
Not because he was necessarily the best driver this year, I think Lewis is the better driver of the two over all and this year as well.
However, the way Nico came […]

I am sick and tired of all the track limit abuse issues every single weekend.
Can’t they just install the sensors that they used in Hungary at every single corner, on every single track and then give them three […]

@drycrust That is just smoke and mirros. The teams were given the choice of: Reverse grid for top 8 (iirc), or the current elimination qualifying system. So that they unanimously agreed to the current system does […]

I love how he keeps insisting that the team bosses unanimously agreed to the current format. Like it was something they wanted.
It is like a robber putting a gun to your head and giving you the choice of getting […]

Well thank god that Jean Todt is spending his time desperately trying to save the disaster of a qualifying system, that they introduced to fix something that was perfectly fine to begin with. It must surely mean […]

@andybantam I don’t think it was a rubbish move at all. However putting all four wheels off the track to set-up an overtake surely cannot be overtake of the year can it? His move on Perez in Brazil was MUCH more […]

@selbbin It’s not as easy as just fixing the power unit. All the systems are tied in with the chassis and aero package. McLaren might have to completely abandon their size zero rear end to make it possible for a […]

I don’t think anyone really stood out. Voted Rosberg for doing a more O.K. job then everyone else.

No racing series, closed or open cockpit allows the drivers to not wear a helmet. That won’t change.

@9chris9 Such a decision might require a little more discussion then what could be done with minutes to go before the start.

@timmya The rules are the rules. It’s Mercedes fault that they didn’t comply. What anyone thinks of the tyres is an entirely different matter.

@weeniebeenie That is how nearly all the technical regulations are enforced, as well as drug testing on the drivers.

@williamstuart The driver is a part of the team. If he does something illegal the team is punished and vice versa. Trying to differentiating the two from each other seems wrong to me. They are a team and they […]

The stepped noses were not a safety feature. They were just an ugly byproduct. The safety feature was the lowered nose tip, and I don’t think anyone complained about that.

@nase There is a difference with taking risks on whether or not his pace is going to hold to the end, or whether or not he would suddenly loose all control and risk being thrown face first into the tyres with over […]

How about Pirelli man up and accept that a tyre, regardless of it’s expected lifespan should fail first by loosing grip at a massive rate, so much so that no driver would be able to continue on them. Long before […]
