Heh, cuz it was a race, despite Ross’ insistence otherwise.

Yeah, the race itself was relatively fun, but everything else about it was gimmicky and/or annoying. Timing of sessions, wasting a Friday evening, the horrid F1 video game graphics on Alonso distracting from the […]

The turn 6 penalty was an utter joke. The stewarding this weekend has been appalling. Between the quali mess yesterday being ignored and then penalizing drivers for defending against impossible moves today… […]

Would have been LEC except for that terrible start and hitting a car on basically a straightaway. Impressive recovery but what was he thinking?

Looking forward to Toto’s next open radio msg to Masi. I’m sure it will be thanking him for a job well done…

Kind of reminds you of the years of “Ferrari International Assistance”, no?

I mean, at least they’re trying hard to make e-racing interesting, but the tech’s gotta catch up. Right now it’s like a video game because they can’t race on merit.

Go home Formula E, you’re drunk

I watch some random golf, tennis, hockey, lots of racing (Le Mans but not WEC, Indy when I can, sometimes NASCAR), but only F1 has me hooked to where I’ll get up at 5am Sunday to […]

2.5 acts of GOD, technically :)

Lastly, because of brake magic! :) Does what it says on the tin!
I assume they just drag the pads or something like that when system is engaged, and correspondingly reduce the pressure available when you hit the stop pedal.

Point me at a driver complaining about what the stewards chose, and maybe I’ll reconsider.

I found nothing fake about that restart. I was on the edge of my seat, praying for Perez and knew Lewis had him until he messed up his braking settings. They introduced this rule for a reason, and it was to make […]

Look up the history of Circuit Mt. Tremblant.
Used to be in the middle of nowhere.
20 years later, people built McMansion cottages near it.
Then, same people complained the track was noisy and sued. And won. […]

I don’t understand all the whinging. It’s a sport, it’s supposed to be exciting. And tell me that wasn’t exciting. Who wanted a parade of cars behind the safety car to the end? Purists? Sorry, the sport has […]

Hard to reward a race where the tires were unsafe and drivers’ lives were at risk. Sure it was exciting but the fear in Stroll’s voice chilled me to my bones.

PS his engineer should be the one getting the penalty points…

Nit: this occurred under safety car, not red flag.

Yeah, not real cool, but tell me everyone wasn’t thinking it anyways…

You put it much better than I could have.
Hopefully the 2025 formula will include refueling and fuel economy as a consideration. Annoying to have to wait that long. Maybe by then it will be battery pack […]
