The ‘Z’…..??? Isn’t that a sign anyone other than people from a certain country at war would prefer to avoid..?

We have drivers points and drivers rating…we all understand drivers in slower cars simply don;t have similar potential than the top teams however this weekend we could compare Verstappen, Perez, Leclerc and […]

@ Erikje,
I don;t buy Lewis being confused…just a few laps before Max and Lewis where in the exact same situation….Lewis doesn’t suddenly forget Max had to give back his position…nonsense.

Lewis played […]

I guess you midded Baku, Silverstone and Hungary…. the fight wasn;t that actually close, those three races kept Lewis hope going

I donno about that….Mercedes decided to protest, but no appeal after a very clear motivation of the rules by the FIA.
People just love sich controversy….

How about the Baku being red-flagged for no reason? […]

Slowing down from 300 to 100 km/h, shifting back from 8th to 3rd gear is not a brake test, it’s a driver being desperate to force the driver behind him to overtake….I might add, Max HAD to give back his […]

The ruling regarding overtaken are moving…. Max style hasn’t changed over the years.
People focus so much on his driving they even foget there are 19 other drivers out there doing exact the same…. drivers to […]

Versus….

Bahrain 29 track limits
Imola crash, P2
Monaco off weekend, P7 (with 2 DNF-s ahead)
Baku switch, P15
Austria poor race, P4
Silverstone crash
Hungary tyre management, P2 (with all his rival out, […]

Norris was strong over the first half of the season, arguably stronger than Hamilton, just in a way lesser car.
I don’t know about the perspective in the first 3 races, Bahrain could have gone either way, but was […]

Stan, you’re quite correct apart from Baku… Mercedes was ahead on the grid, but lost position due to a slow pitstop, after that Hamilton was in DRS from Perez in near every lap. Mercedes was not the slower car in Baku.

From testing we knew Mercedes had better long run pace and performed better on the medium and hard compounds.
RBR was the ‘winner’ in testing, they had the fastest laps…..over one lap, with red […]

Each car is set-up to get the very maximum performance out of it…..the fastest lap is the optimal set-up.

People love to turn things around, not team will follow the path of the slower of the two […]

There’s enough to debate on this…. apart from the car’s potential pce it’s the drivers that have to get the maximum performance out of it and there’s the catch….

Imola, Mercedes ahead, but caught out at the […]

The main issue was not Masi’s decision, it was Mercedes’ tyre condition

Well no it doesn’t, but people simply refuse to accept that.

Mercedes protest failed and they did not appeal, this means end-off, the rest is just adding irrelevant drama

First of all…. these votes…? Like we can vote for a driver to become WDC… odd.

Russell did beat Lewis twice this season….. in a Williams, Belgium and Sochio.
Maybe Russell doesn’t have the […]

So RBR the faster car in:
Bahrain, with a 0.7 gap on the finish line?
Monaco, with Mercedes’ slower driver 0.025 sec off pole?
Baku, with Lewis ahead on the grid, but a very slow pitstop, being in DRS from […]

It makes one wonder how RBR built the 2016 car around Verstappen without him actually driving it for one single second.
Just practice and quali and won his first race in a car completely new to him…. in the […]

Liikely cause the actual numbers show he didn’t.
Perez may have ‘outqualified’ Verstappen once in Imola, but only cause of a minor tracklimit by Verstappen. His advantage lasted nearly less than the gap in quali. […]

I don’t know where you got the idea Perez was actually ever close to Verstappen…? Must have been Imola qualifying thanks to Max 10 cm track limit…his advantage lasted about 2 second on Sunday…other than that […]
