Max has excellent english, but I’m wondering if he hasn’t actually understood what Ted was saying, or didn’t actually fully watch the clip.

This is such a nothingburger.

I’m guessing that Max saw a partial […]

He’s just saying it like it is. No revelations. He’s always plain spoken about the car’s performance.

The thing I don’t want is for teams in F1 to have different fuels, and that the fuel is a competitive advantage. I think I am right in saying, but might not be (someone tell me if I’ve got it wrong), that Pat […]

Totally agree. Going back to Alpine may actually be just the right thing for his career. He’ll have a large pay off, be in a competitive car that is currently arguably better than the Mclaren. If the Mclaren has […]

Perez’s recent performances, and Ferraris blunders have put them closer recently as much as the car getting better. I rate the Hamilton and Russell combination as the best one on the grid.

I don’t see why.

If you can get the floor to bend at speed (higher aero load) then presumably you can use that technique to bend up part of the floor at speed to allow more air flow through to stop the […]

Teams are not allowed to run their windtunnel at the air speeds necessary to induce porpoising, and there is a strong budget cap that reduces the possibility of part experimentation.

It’s not quite the same […]

The 2009 Mclaren started off rubbish, and then became a race winning car. That was a bit different though because it was a lot to do with KERS messing up teams development that had it. Then those teams caught up […]

You just have to wait for testing. One way could be better than the other, or they could be 2 solutions that produce the same end result. It’s impossible to say currently unless you have a team of […]

He should be paid more money, and then promoted to a job with a great sounding job title that isn’t anything to do with making decisions in Formula 1 or live races.

Also apart from the other 2 responses from Neil & @jimfromus, Sainz WOULD have been a factor in the last lap. You see 3 way fights all the time. If the driver 2nd in a 3 way fight dive bombs the leader to try and […]

It was a weird season for him. I 50% buy the car adaption thing and 50% don’t. Ricciardo made his name beating Vettel. Vettel was beaten massively by Leclerc. Sainz was about the same pace as Lando, Sainz was a […]

It all depends where he was in the lap when the transmission happened. If he was in a braking zone or a difficult corner then it was Will’s mistake and an understandable outburst. If he was going down a […]

They could mandate more than one pit stop. That would give greater overtaking opportunities.

They could have 2 shorter races. The first 7 and last 7 laps are good at Monaco. The rest is boring apart from the pit stops.

It’s a difficult one. Without restrictions Formula 1 cars would be nothing like they are. They would have entirely covered wheels, a canopy, and the driver would be virtually lying down and wearing a G-suit. There […]

I think they should consider mandating 2 stops for the super hard to overtake race tracks. Barcelona, Imola, Monaco. Those type of tracks.

I like the 50/50 ICE and electricity idea.

My wacky idea for the future of F1:

Because electric motors are so responsive they could use a standardised ECU to equalise the torque levels of the power units in […]

Mercedes were struggling in testing and they have pulled it back so much that they are already 2 and 3 in qualifying.

We now have to wait and see what the relative race paces are.

My whacky proposal is to make a power unit that can be detuned to actually work in a high end luxury or sports car. The more F1 performance would come from greater turbo charging and a big KERS (Bigger electric […]

Yes. It all depends how badly he had it.

Perez seemed to bounce back, but Stroll was poor after returning so it could go either way. Hopefully he feels good.

Sad for Russell. I know people don’t like the […]
