Napier Railton commented on the post, Bottas leads tight top three as Mazepin's second spin ends practice early 1 day, 1 hour ago
It’s hard to say that I feel sorry for a formula 1 driver. But I can’t help but feel bad for Mick and Nikita. That haas look like a horrible car to drive.
It’s going to be really hard to look good while driving that.

This is a silly situation.
That should never have been a headline.
Napier Railton commented on the post, F1 planning new 'active aero' for 2025 cars to slash fuel consumption 1 week, 3 days ago
Cool.
That could mean the aero team jobs could get way more complex. They would need to make a car that works well with two different aero configurations at the same time. That’s awesome!
Imagine the […]
Napier Railton commented on the post, Haas "not putting in any effort" to do more than fight Williams this year 1 week, 5 days ago
Thanks for cotd, sorry for the bad grammar. That’s what happens when you get up really early preparing for a new early shift.
I wonder if the FIA has noticed the we’ll-never-win-anyway attitude of Haas, and if […]

F1 has a purpose.
It develops road going technology in a competitive environment, it provides entertainment and escapism for millions of fans all over the world, and it make a lot of money.
As a side effect […]
Napier Railton commented on the post, Performance under pressure still Vettel's weakness – Berger 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Sebastian’s crash reminded me of Michael Schumacher’s crashes at the end of his career. At some point he might realise the common factor in all the incidents is him.
It’s sad to say, but if things don’t […]

Could some of the lost time be because these are new cars, they still have a whole season of development to go. They might get quicker

At this point a new team on the grid would be great. More places for these people to work.
Napier Railton commented on the post, Hamilton raised human rights concerns with Bahraini officials and UK ambassador 3 weeks, 1 day ago
Is Bahrain really that bad for human rights? I mean in the grand scale of things.
Look at its neighbours, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iran… I don’t think Bahrain is doing that badly.
And there are much worse […]

Actually looks pretty fun to drive.
Reminds me a bit of Valencia though, hopefully that’s not a bad thing.

I like the look of it, but you can only see so much from a line drawing, are there any pictures of the track on a map of the place so we can see things like track width and elevation etc.

In the event that mercedes are not the fastest car, this might be the first time we see them struggle to catch up.
With the budget cap in place, the limit on wind tunnel time and an eye on next season, this is […]Napier Railton commented on the post, Bottas vs Rosberg: Hamilton's Mercedes team mates compared after 78 races each 1 month, 1 week ago
oops, my mistake, I have a bit of a blind spot with threes
Napier Railton commented on the post, Bottas vs Rosberg: Hamilton's Mercedes team mates compared after 78 races each 1 month, 1 week ago
Lewis has never really had a bad car. But he’s never had a bad teammate either.
It his time he’s been a teammate for four different champions and compared very well with all of them. If you look at past results […]

I’m looking forward to these. I could be quite fun.
I can’t help the feeling that other races should have been chosen. Russia and Abu Dhabi for example, they are in desperate need of some extra spicing up.

that doesn’t really answer my question. What tangible things are being done?
Does all that mean he’s pushing Mercedes to hire more people from ethnic backgrounds?
If that is the case, I hope it’s not at the […]

Haircut for Antonio!
Maybe he will find a performance advantage with the weight loss.

I’ve heard from a lot of teams that they are “focussing” on the regulation changes for 2022.
In 2009 when there was the last aero overhaul, Brawn (Honda) got the jump on everyone because they were putting all […]
