The stewards note, with some concern, certain allegations made in the competitor’s above letter. Such allegations may or may not have been relevant to the stewards if the petition for review had been g […]

Wait, I thought Hamilton was a teammate to George Russel?

Yeah I can’t say I’m too impressed by the information that they’ve released so far. On top of that, the price in my region has more than tripled since last years version, and the addition of micro-transactions […]

I wonder how feasible it would be to have an independent FIA funded non-profit team, perhaps as a customer team to keep costs down, that would always run the winner and runner-up of the previous Formula2 […]

you can only ‘arrest’ somebody if they committed a specific crime.
@coldfly Isn’t that the whole point of a trial, to determine if someone has in fact committed a specific crime?

@cdfemke Thanks for sharing that, very interesting.

Very unlucky for Hamilton, he was in a class of his own this weekend, but in the end a slam dunk penalty. Pit lane was closed at the same time the safety car was deployed, which someone at the team should have […]

They say they want a warning before the tyre goes, but Valterri was on the radio complaining about severe vibrations long before his tyre gave up. Hamilton was also complaining about severe blistering. Everyone […]

Hi @aapje

As you point out, the phrases ‘all lives matter’ or ‘white lives matter’ are not problematic in and of themselves, statements I think you’ll find most people will happily agree with. The problem is […]

And of course all the teams further down the order think that a clean sheet of paper will change the pecking order.
So further down the order than Ferrari? So everyone except Mercedes? Given that Redbull hasn’t […]

This article has just made me angry all over again at how Bernie Ecclestone gutted the sport and how his buddy Max Mosely and the FIA let him.

Where before the teams shared 85 per cent of F1’s underlying r […]

@ijw1 That’s certainly one way to do it. Personally I’d rather give the teams full freedom of which compounds they use during the race. So we could see teams running soft-soft-hard or medium-medium-soft or any […]

@mrboerns Hehe, fair enough. While obviously I’d love to see a mixture of 1, 2 and 3 stop strategies, it seems extremely unlikely given the current formula. With 2 mandatory stops we’d probably see a little more […]

More and more I’m starting to believe that the only way we’ll have varied strategies and drivers pushing is to have 2 mandatory pit stops. While I’ve generally been staunchly against introducing artificial […]

While Vandoorne was soundly beaten this year by his team mate, I think he’s still performed very well in a bad car up against arguably one of the all time greats in Formula1. His average deficit to Alonso in […]

I’ve always thought Coca-Cola were missing a trick by not taking advantage of the advertising opportunity afforded by the so-called “Coke Bottle Zone” of F1 cars. Maybe we’re going to see some interesting designs […]

I like the move to just 3 names, you know exactly what tyres they are on relative to the others brought without having to remember exactly which 3 tyre compounds are available that weekend. “Oh, he’s on the super […]

@krommenaas It’s true, Stoffel had a great debut when he subbed for Fernando at Bahrain (though it was on a circuit he’d raced at several times in GP2).

While his team mate hasn’t exactly set the Formula1 world […]

Leclerc impressed me considerably this weekend. On a track he’s never raced before, he was able to qualify within a tenth of his considerably more experienced team mate (4 years in F1) and then go on to have a […]
