I agree it’s unlikely to be overturned and indeed a race result has never been overturned in that manner before, however I’ve also never seen a race director ignore the regs to manufacture a last lap sprint bef […]

It’s not quite the same though, is it? This isn’t like a football referee using his judgement and arriving at a disagreeable decision. This is a race director not just misapplying rules but flat-out inventing new […]

Are you saying that teams should never protest what they perceive as infringements of the rules because their driver might have transgressed similar things in the last? Bizarre stance.

What does that have to do with the events of this race?

Just for the record, you’re ok with the sport not following it’s own regs?

However you feel about it, it would still be a decision that aligns with the rule book. What actually happened didn’t align, it directly contravenes safety car procedure. They literally singled out the 5 cars s […]

But if it did end under the safety car, that would be hard luck but at least align with the rules. What actually happened was not in accordance with the sports regulations which is what people are quite rightly upset about.

Exactly what I feared. Difficult to watch any sporting competition end in such confusion and acrimony. Very deep and lingering feeling of unfairness surrounding the result. This year has been tainted by some of […]

Heck of a counter punch from Verstappen. Not sure how he managed to turn around the pace deficit from practice, and to do it to the tune of 3 tenths is a big effort. It’s stuff like this that highlights just how g […]

Lots of talk about how merc and Hamilton have the championship sewn up, however this misses some crucial facts; an unlucky DNF for Hamilton in Saudi Arabia (a deflating tyre, a turn 1 collision, a wonky engine […]

The question of whether it was a penalty or not is open to much debate and there’s an argument on both sides that can be legitimately argued.

The decision to not even investigate the move in the first place is […]

Difficult to see Hamilton closing the points gap to Verstappen given the remaining races. Surely some twists and turns to come but all in all it’s been a very enjoyable season and we’ve been thoroughly spo […]

I could be wrong on this but I believe Hamilton would have also still won the championship in Mexico even if they’d have held position in Russia and let Bottas keep the win.

The fact that the switch not only […]

Heikki Kovalainen and Jenson Button had those very same cars in 2009, 2010 and 2011 but alas they claimed exactly 0 pole positions in that time. I think you’d have a pretty strong point if I valued conjecture over […]

One thing I think a lot of people overlook when debating about whether he is an all time great, or even when comparing him to the current crop of top-line drivers, is that Lewis has had a pole and a win in every […]

There’s actually only 7 rounds left so Lewis can follow Nico home in 2nd in every remaining round and still be champion by 4 points.

Can anyone shed any light on how Rosberg was able to close the gap to Hamilton under the VSC? I’ve seen Gary Anderson raise the same question in his Autosport article and obviously Hamilton found it weird, but […]

Why isnt the time they spent as team-mates a good representation of Hamilton vs Alonso?

Am I right in thinking Lewis can take the pole position trophy with pole in the next round at Spa?

Disagree entirely that it’s “normal”, and I have two compelling reasons: Silverstone 08 & Monza 08.
