You’ll (possibly) see in the corners that the full width of the outside tyre comes into contact with the track, giving maximum grip, it’s just on the straight the percentage contacting the track is lower. Also […]

McLaren did retire their cars when they were running Honda engines just before the end of the race on many occasions so they could change gearbox without penalty. It’s not some sort of slander it’s factual. […]

Pretty simple solution – they should work out how many cars max they ever want on the grid, and divide the prize money including any ‘missing’ teams. That way no existing team ‘loses out’ when a new one comes […]

I’m sure there’s an F1-equevelant of ‘bringing the game into disrepute’ in Football, so the governing body should investigate the team’s punishment of him and see if they need to take action against the team/him […]

Everyone would be saying he’s throwing the marshals under a bus if he flat-out blamed that one for his reaction. It’s called playing devil’s advocate to the very leading question asked by the press.

It’s clear […]

Vettel is right, it is embarrassing they’ve not come up with something better.

Personally, I’d just put the lapped cars to the back of the line and put them on the same lap in software, which isn’t difficult. […]

I think S is referring to a cost per exposure (in a marketing sense) which will be more beneficial to them in indycar than in F1 (potentially). It’s one of the reasons why Red Bull can spend such a large amount […]

Strongly disagree, purely because 2022 is the new package regulations and with teams having to re-package everything, engines are going to change quite a lot as part of that mix, and a freeze would have the […]

Liberty need to put aside their feelings on the Interlagos operators and re-sign that track for the future. It’s one of the better races on the calendar, there’s always good on-track action and good […]

Be a shame if the people who don’t care/think about F1 being a proper sport vote this in. This is far worse than the double-points for the last race nonsense as far as damaging the integrity of the sport […]

When you have Mercedes and some drivers directly accusing them of endangering drivers to spice up the show, I think he has some justification to be angry at that. If they’d raised something as constructive […]

That makes no logical sense. Bottas would not have gone flat-out out of the last corner even if given an entire lap to bunch the pack – it would make it far easier for Lewis to slipstream him and overtake before […]

That’s utter rubbish. Other than the Stroll red flag which seemed OTT slightly, what incident in the last 2 races didn’t deserve what race control did? Just puppeting some people in the press saying they’re […]

Good on you Masi, some of the drivers are getting a rather inflated opinion of themselves at the moment with some of their comments.

BUT, it should be pretty obvious that all the cars doing 50mph when they […]

The ‘go’ line should always be at/in/before the final corner so it’s obvious to be full-throttle on the s/f straight. Of course the back end of the field will have that issue – they can only see the car infront […]

There are 2 choices that could easily be made immediately – clarify that any tyres changed under red flag don’t count towards mandatory tyre changes, or prohibit changing dry compounds for an alternative dry […]

I think Ferrari are already focusing heavily on 2022 while they CAN spend endless money at it. If there was no reg change there’d be less issue but I think their focus is repackaging the engine to be more […]

I think a lot actually will depend on the surface in Istanbul – it used to be pretty bumpy in T8 and modern F1 doesn’t tend to do bumpy tracks. Big bumps + aero don’t always go well together. The ‘flat out’ cars […]

That’s a tad harsh; Pirelli design the tyres to a brief given to them. It’s the brief that is wrong. Other suppliers looked at the brief and thought ‘why would we drag our name through the mud to ‘put on a show’ […]

He was still off of the racing line though and that’s the point. I don’t know why they were saying he left the track as he clearly didn’t, but he should have realised how much time his mistake had cost him and […]
