RBAlonso commented on the post, Should Gasly have been penalised for first-corner tangle with Alonso? 8 months, 2 weeks ago
My username may give away my allegiance in this debate but I think there are a 3 points which are much broader and solidify why this is a penalty and will be issued as one in the future.
The first is that […]
RBAlonso commented on the post, Vettel: Hockenheim 2018 error wasn't only turning point in relationship with Ferrari 1 year, 6 months ago
@tifoso1989 For the most part I agree with you but I think there are a few factors which make direct comparisons harsh. Firstly, Alonso and Vettel share very few attributes – Vettel’s success can be largely […]
RBAlonso commented on the post, Vettel: Hockenheim 2018 error wasn't only turning point in relationship with Ferrari 1 year, 6 months ago
@mouse_nightshirt I think there is a difference between drivers capitalising on the big team openings and the jobs where second place is failure. I agree that there is no animosity between the drivers in your list […]

There has become a tendency to frame drivers leaving teams as protracted bitter divorces, where either the employee or the employer are to blame. Concerning Ferrari, this is almost always the case. But looking […]

I think the F1 gaming market will always be stuck between accessibility and realism. Codemasters have done a fine job on F1 2019, if you are using a controller and want to play 30 minutes after work then it’s […]

@coldfly – I refer to the AWS data analysis which was implemented, in rather rudimentary fashion, last year. They’ve tried to show the impact of tyre wear and strategy on outcome of the race but I think a lot of […]

RBAlonso commented on the post, Could Vettel be an Aston Martin driver in 2021? 2 years, 1 month ago
I think Vettel joining Aston may have finished before it started. If I were running Ferrari at the minute I too would have dropped Vettel; but I would have replaced him with Perez. Perez has historic links with […]
RBAlonso commented on the post, Hamilton expects F1 drivers will be "rusty as hell" when season starts 2 years, 1 month ago
It will be interesting to see if there is any correlation between drivers who have done no practice, drivers who have only used the official sim, drivers who have only been karting at their personal track and […]
RBAlonso commented on the post, Alonso plans return to a 'top category – F1, WEC or IndyCar' 2 years, 1 month ago
@black – thank you for taking the time to write up your reply.
However I think we are addressing the same issue for 2 different sides – you are trying to find a framework where Alonso’s character is the sole […]

RBAlonso commented on the post, Is an F1 comeback with Renault a realistic option for Alonso? 2 years, 1 month ago
I think the ball is squarely in Renault’s court here. I was convinced that in 2021 (reg change) they would be fighting for wins and the Championship with Ricciardo – their track record when ramping up involvement […]
RBAlonso commented on the post, Alonso plans return to a 'top category – F1, WEC or IndyCar' 2 years, 1 month ago
@black. I’m not sure Alonso’s character has as much to do with his employment with the top 3. Red Bull have consistently had young drivers to replace their current incumbent. Ferrari’s number one driver policy […]
RBAlonso commented on the post, 2020 F1 calendar unlikely to be shorter than 21 races – Carey 3 years, 3 months ago
I disagree the COTD to an extent. I certainly believe that Ricciardo had lost the head game with Verstappen but I’m not sure the management styles of Mercedes and Red Bull are analogous. Wolff and Lauda are cut […]

Danger is not my issue. I fully accept that it surrounds everyone’s lives all of the time.The open wheel formula is dangerous.
However the difference between cars crashing out in a safe environment where we […]

I don’t believe that the challenge of the sport is diminished by the halo. I don’t respect rally drivers or WEC drivers any less because they have a windshield. I can’t see why your opposition is so […]

Very brave and strong willed of you 2 to risk someone else’s life for your entertainment Paul and @marksch.
I am not scared to watch racing. I am not scared to attend races. I am not scared to race. However, I […]

@marksch How do you think the media and F1 in general would have fared if Alonso had been decapitated at Spa in 2012? I was in the crowd that day surrounded by children of all ages. Are you honestly suggesting you […]

Which accident did you last watch which made you feel happy or contented?

The reason circuits hosting cars adopted tarmac was due to the risk of cars either taking off or rolling but bike tracks in the early 2000s wanted tarma run offs so riders stayed up longer and had a flat […]
