Ferrari’s mistake wasnt letting Hamilton go as after a few quick laps from hamilton the lap times between vettel and Hamilton stabilised.

In fact by lap 33, 10 laps after hamilton had pitted vettel was only […]

Did Vettel really disobey team orders??

Not really if you ask me

First request lap 6, seb says let’s breakaway for 2 laps to which engineer agrees.

Second request lap 7, seb replies close the […]

I dont think it’s too much of a surprise that Leclerc quickly got on terms with Vettel, It was clear from his year at sauber that he destined to be a superstar of the sport and was immensely quick.

In saying […]

It looked like a gamble all be it a completely free one at that given there was nothing to lose and everything to gain however the merc pitwall had a pretty big clue that they were making the right call.

45 […]

Skybet.

I had a bet on for double points finish for alpha and it’s been payed out and withdrawn. They wont be getting it back lol

The argument that refueling affected the number of on track overtakes is deeply flawed. The stats suggest this was the case but a proper analysis uncovers the real reasons

On track overtakes did dip in the […]

@Oxnard

Who’s making stuff up? Verstappen did brake late, did miss the apex, did understeer, did open the steering, did make contact with Leclerc, did force Leclerc of the track.

Sure you dont have to make […]

@oconomo

A very Hollywood description of what happened but as is often the case of the movies…..a long way of reality.

He broke too late, missed the apex, understeered into Leclercs car causing a collision and opened the steering to run him off track.

It’s fine margins. If he had his car a third ahead of leclercs then you could […]

It was farcical that it took so long to make the decision.

At the end of the formula 3 race their was a collision between 1st and 2nd at the hairpin on the last lap and the decision and penalty was made before […]

Every driver makes errors. Merc lost potential 1-2’s in quali in Australia and brazil due to Bottas slipping up.

As for Hungary the Merc Was the fastest car in the wet conditions where every driver had the same […]

There’s no doubt that in outright pace the Mercedes was the fastest car this season.

They locked the front row out in qualifying 7 times to Ferraris 3 and red bulls 1.

That stay alone is conclusive as it’s […]

I do find this notion that Kimi was super accommodating to Vettel a little unusual if I’m honest.

Not letting vettel by in Germany for 10+laps when vettel was much quicker you could argue contributed to Vettel […]

Having seen the full on board from ocon with team radio in the laps leading up to the verstsppen clash in Brazil it puts a different perspective on it.

Ocon costs himself a lot of time after exiting the pits […]

The only race in which a vettel error maybe cost Ferrari a 1-2 finish is USA. Mercedes lost potential 1-2’s in Austria, Azerbaijan and France.

Keith collintines analysis was flawed when comparing the cars as he […]

1-2 finishes……Mercedes 4 Ferrari 0

1-2 qualifying…Mercedes 7 Ferrari 3

Ferrari had a good car but when you analyse the plethora of data available you can come no other conclusion that the mercedes was […]

Had the best car and finished 5th in championship. Pretty much enough said.

Had some strong moments but equally as many weak moments.

@adhyra

A)…..From what Iv read their is ambiguity as to if Kimi git the upgraded engine in Canada or not. Auto sport reported he did where as a blog from will buxton says he didn’t.

Regardless kimis speed […]

Correction 7 of 8 races kimi beat Vettel were due to incidents. Only race kimi looked quicker than seb was Brazil and if I recall seb had to let kimi pass
