I find the whole circuit a bit of a mess to be honest. It doesn’t do anything for good racing. The single file turn back section 14-18 is totally mickey mouse, and the bridge absolutely terrifies me. The thought […]

Seems like a sensible precaution to take. In the UK covid is rife again. I know more people with it now than at anytime in the past two years. I’ve just had it myself for the first time and after 4 weeks I’m still […]

This race was why I love the 500. There’s so many phases to the race. It’s constantly fascinating to see drivers drift in and out of contention. If you watched the first 50 laps or so it looked so comfortable for […]

Herta will be in that car next year if he has the super license points.

I’ve been watching racing in various series for 35 years and that lap 4 save by Herta was one of the best I’ve ever seen. His instinctive car control was astonishing.

With all this talk of Monaco, Spa, Ricard, maybe Silverstone losing races, F1 needs to be careful it doesn’t lose enough “classic” circuits to allow a rival series to be formed.

18 is enough for me. I’m already picking and choosing what races to watch and I’ve still got some from last season recorded that I never watched. As the number of races has increased it’s gone from must watch to […]

This is going to be genuinely spectacular. 212mph down the strip is going to be astonishing.

Asking for anyone that’s been to Vegas: Is there any spray from the fountains at the Bellagio?

I’d like the option for this commentary when watching it on Sky.

They said they didn’t have time to apply the proper livery to the real car that’s why we got the showcar. The showcar was a sort of a satin matte finish this one is just regular glossy paint.

They’ve just got this wrong. A real misstep from the team.

I didn’t see the live reveal but I’m wondering why that background image shows the car in a different livery? Any idea?

It’s a shame that Jenson Button’s drive for them this season didn’t happen. That could have been another level of attention for them and the whole of IndyCar.

Indycar really does seem to be an attractive place for drivers now. It seems to be building every year. It’s a great series with fantastic racing and offers everyone a chance to win.

I agree. I think if we see a debris strike like Massa’s there’ll be some serious questions to answer, and possibly litigation, as to why a race proven safety feature wasn’t being used.

He thought it made changing direction faster. The idea being that the extra weight made it harder to stop when you turn it one way and then want to quickly flick it back the opposite direction.

Pat Symonds insisted on the dash mounted display when he was at Williams. He believes having it in the wheel makes the wheel heavier and therefore slower to turn due to inertia. Surely there can be barely any […]

There’s some really interesting stuff in there, including the benign hand of the FIA lurking in the background!!

There’s an excellent 4 part documentary on YouTube called The Indycar Split by nascarman history.

If you’re interested in the split and the personalities behind it you won’t go wrong spending an hour or so watching it.

Or, allow only one man on each wheel. That’ll slow it down.
