Oh, if only Alonso put on inters during that first pitstop. Max probably still wins but I think a pass would have been required. Still an enjoyable race, especially for Monaco. Great drive from Alpine, the […]

It’s odd that they spring weighbridge demands on a driver with a second or two to react. Maybe I’m missing something on the process but not why relay the requirement to the team and the driver during Sector 2 or 3 […]

I’m more positive and less grumbly than the majority of fans but that…that was not good. Worryingly so. That said, props to Checo for a great drive, and glad Charles’ season is back on track. Hope Checo can […]

(sigh) Just a TINY shred of patience and that win would have been yours, Romain. The accident falls fully on McLaughlin’s shoulders (by his own admission), but RoGro should know the risk/reward for that kind of […]

Sounds like Aston’s covering all bases in case Drugovich is a bust. Can’t really blame Aston for doing that since they seem to have Top 4 ambitions, though I doubt Seb would actually come back. It makes me […]

For American viewers (like me) I’ll note that my TV guide has the race being on ABC, not just ESPN3.

For non-US folk that’s a really good thing for us since ABC is a free-to-air channel while ESPN3 is an online […]

– Loves the US and has a home there
– Ferrari engines with the straight line speed MB doesn’t have.
– Dramatically lowered expectations.
– Gunther himself said to call him; the interest is there. If the raw […]

– Reduce their 2023 cost cap by the equivalent amount they overspent. Maybe reduce their wind tunnel time too.
– Start 2023 with a constructors points penalty. I’d say 10 points for every million overspent. 25 if […]

It’s obviously Verstappen, but I voted Seb because he did a great job all weekend in what could be the last shining moment of his career. Kudos to Ocon and Latifi as well.

I also endorse this idea. Or have a separate article breaking the results down (to include total votes).

It feels like the compromise that would benefit IndyCar drivers, yet “preserve” the “prestige” of F2 is an easy one:

F2 SL pts: (Top 6): 40-40-40-30-20-10
Current Indy Top 6: 40-30-20-10-8-6
My proposed Indy […]

“Kimi crashed” is the easy headline to write but he actually did a great job. He survived and gained places in tricky, rainy conditions. He then ran nearly 20 laps in the Top 10, going door to door with the last 2 […]

Oh no, I don’t disagree that Ferrari are the 2nd best team, they’re very good, but it’s they’ve also given a LOT of points away this season. Many on reliability, but also cases like Monaco and Britian where the […]

Team Herta has become the Ferrari of IndyCar. Another massive blunder with a car worthy of winning. Some weeks its the strategy, sometimes its the driver, but they cannot stop tripping over themsleves.

Herta’s […]

If Herta wants an F1 seat next season he has some work to do. By my estimation he needs 4th overall in IndyCar to earn his superlicense (plus 2 FP sessions). He’s currently 11th and 50pts behind 4th with some […]

I was going to mention Kyle Larson as well. He was lucky Rick Hendrick took him in after his year-long, high visibilty suspension. Two years later Larson is now a Cup champion, a Top 5 talent, and major sponsors […]

I’ve had this feeling for a long time that Ferrari are not sold on Mick as a future driver. I was surprised they didn’t try to convince Alfa Romeo to pair him with Bottas and get him away from the toxic Mazepins. […]

Very impressive drive by McLaughlin, especially holding his nerve against Palou. He’s already shown he can drive ovals. Now he’s figuring out street circuits.

Mac and Grosjean are going to be great additions to […]

100% agree. This is what they do in other series and should be an option available to the race director. Faster to implement too.

Why do lapped cars deserve to get their lap back? It should be a privilege, not […]

IndyCar should also get a nice bump from having almost all of its season (14 of 17 races) on free-to-air TV in the States, a big change from previous years.
