Newfangled

Ban them. Awful things. Bad for safety, and I can’t imagine how annoyed I’d be if I was sat in a grandstand seat I’d paid good money for only to have a flare go off in the seat next to me, inhale its fumes, and […]

8. Would be a 9 were it not for the VSC affecting the running order.

I love F1, I really do – but there’s no way I’m spending 30 weekends a year watching F1. It takes up a lot of time – about the maximum I can justify now, in the calendar’s current incarnation – and any more will […]

This is all starting to get a bit United Colours of Benetton!

I got the impression that Magnussen and Grosjean were hamstrung by a car that looked brutally unstable at the rear prior to 2021, which Mazepin and Schumacher also seemed to have difficulty taming. Wouldn’t be at […]

The best looking grid for many a year, but it has to be the Ferrari for me.

Accepting huge Russian commercial backing for your team, and a deeply unpopular Russian driver funded by Putin…. What could go wrong?

Looking at how bare that car is now the Russians (who seemingly made Hass […]

I’m usually pretty silent on these forums when it comes to pre-season hype, but I think these new cars looks spectacular, and some of the liveries equally so. I’m really, really excited for the new season and […]

Great article!

Nico has scored a pole position in Formula 1, won the Le Mans 24hrs, the GP2 Series, and 3 other championships in his career so far. That’s an enviable list of accomplishments. He never stood on the podium in F1 […]

Opting for the blunt ‘yeah but this is actually qualifying, though.’ Bottas pole, sprint race is tomorrow. Sort it out before this becomes a very awkward era to look back on, FOM.

So salty! Love to see it.

Worth ignoring the 24% of people who are irrational enough in the controversial aftermath of this race to vote ‘1’. FYI, I gave it an 8. The race was a 7, but the scenes after the finish were historic in […]

Correct result in the end. Chandhok’s analysis on Sky F1 was spot on. Racing incident.

‘If’ Perez didn’t suffer a slow pit stop, he would’ve been 3rd, and everything you mention would be irrelevant.

It’s a team sport – both RB and Perez could’ve done better.

I can only assume opting not to improve the driveability of the current car, and thus encourage a slew of expensive accidents from its rookie driver pairing, is cumulatively still more affordable than diverting […]

This is the bottom line. FE is meant to promote the advantages, the current power and potential of electric vehicles, but the headlines from races like this, under the current regulations, is that cars ‘are […]

That track looks atrocious. A ton of acceleration zones masquerading as corners that present no challenge whatsoever (other than to neck muscles), loads of Mickey Mouse 2nd & 3rd gear tight, sharp apexes, a clumsy […]

I was genuinely disappointed in Russell yesterday, as I hold him in very high regard. He didn’t handle the incident well at all, but this is the best way to deal with the fallout. Hopefully he’ll learn from it – […]

Would’ve thought a sprint race in place of qualifying to determine the grid for Sunday would’ve made more sense (and been simpler), but hey.
