I agree 100%. This was a race where you genuinely couldn’t tell who would win until the final stages. Very interesting. Can’t wait for Malaysia. 8/10

Most people on here rate the drives, the track and atmosphere, and the results, instead of the race itself.
It should be a 2 at best. The dullest F1 race I have seen in a long, long time. You have missed nothing.

It’s not rate the atmosphere
It’s not rate the track
It’s not rate the crowd’s reaction to drivers on the podiumIt’s rate the race

Certainly the best proper racing F1 has seen in a long time. No need for the DRS, it was proper hard side-by-side scraps with some great moves. And the fact that 3-4 drivers were in contention for the win.
I’m […]

From one of the most exciting races of the season (Singapore) to the most boring by a long way. Yawn.

It’s race the race, not the result.

Sorry but you are wrong there- F1 is a show, always has and always will be. They introduced DRS and Pirelli tyres to improve the show, remember? They have spectacular venues such as Singapore to improve the show. […]

Yes it was a procession, but it was very close and intriguing if you knew where to look. Formula 1 in its current state is boring- the artificiality is making it more so. Don’t fix what’s not broken. However, this […]

Did Alonso overtake anyone? By ‘pass’ I was meaning ‘overtake’ You can’t overtake with all four wheels off the circuit. Track limits however is another matter, it’s up to the FIA to decide who is pinged. In the UK […]

Good. Everyone knows you can’t pass all 4 wheels off the circuit- Button did it in Australia 2011 and was punished, now Vettel gets it too. This should shut Christian Horner up as well.

Really enjoyed the race, never got bored. Very enthralling unlike the Silverstone snoozefest two weeks ago. Arguably it was an anti-climatic finish, so I give it an 8/10. Vettel’s move was not acceptable either. […]

Incredible article, just shows how much F1 has changed- that’s like Martin Whitmarsh offering you to come and see the new McLaren testing
On a similar note there was a Camel yellow Lotus 101 (1989) testing for […]

Boring race, boring season. Only exciting races were earlier in the year where the Pirelli tyres were actually making a difference, or in the wet. Also get rid of DRS.
What we need next year is what we had in […]

I guess you could find the foam going everywhere quite amusing, but I was sick to my stomach when I saw that because they don’t have rollcages or helmets or anything really. Cause was diesel spilt at the top of […]

Doesn’t look nice, no natural light for 1hr 30mins in somewhere as hot as India. Somehow I don’t think there will be a gridwalk

No doubt Red Bull will dominate but I am certain Mercedes will have a chance to be up there with McLaren. Ferrari will be behind again, and Alonso will continue to complain about Massa

I would have liked Shedden to win, he deserved it more than anyone else on the grid. Naturally Silverstone was never going to suit the NA cars so Plato’s chances were always going to be slim.
A good season […]
