shadow13 commented on the post, Latifi frustrated by stewards' handling of Zhou collision after receiving penalty 3 months, 4 weeks ago
Latifi was obviously at fault for the incident but his criticism of the stewards is entirely fair. There’s a precedent that when 2 drivers have a crash they invite them both to give their views. This should have h […]
shadow13 commented on the post, What single-seater drivers not in F1 deserve a chance at a grand prix debut? 4 months, 2 weeks ago
I actually think this years F2 grid is a bit lack in potential F1 talent. I put Drugovich and Pouchaire down as I think they probably deserve a chance due to being 1st and 2nd but I don’t really expect either to b […]

Having watched IndyCar for the first time this year I get why they want Herta and I probably wouldn’t have done had I not watched it. First thing to say is that Indycar is often called a spec series but it’s not […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Are Red Bull about to re-sign Perez? Eight Belgian GP talking points 1 year, 5 months ago
As a help – ‘Resigning’ – when you leave the team/company is normally only used when it is the employee (so Perez in this instance) that has chosen it. So in situations like this you can tell it means that the […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Compensation for crash damage? It might just happen in budget cap F1 1 year, 6 months ago
I feel immensely sorry for red bull after the past 2 races but I don’t think other teams paying for damages is a good plan. Imagine a scenario where a Williams driver makes a massive mistake at T1 and wipes out b […]

I personally think it’s great they’re going to a proper circuit. I’ve never been able to get into Formula E and it’s primarily the circuit choice for me. They all blend into one huge series of barriers and it’s ha […]

My quote didn’t work – it was in response to this “Saturday afternoon’s second sprint race was a livelier affair, as the caution of race one was thrown out of the window by drivers, knowing the race two resul […]
shadow13 commented on the post, New format but familiar problems in Formula 2's first triple-header weekend 1 year, 10 months ago
That’s exactly what I’ve been saying about F1’s silly implementation of ‘qualifying races’. After the first few where there will be excitement due to its newness and teams having not worked out the best stra […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Why Formula 1 won't give up on its Saturday sprint race plan 1 year, 11 months ago
I can see 3 main issues with this plan:
1 – qualifying viewing will decrease hugely. Friday isn’t just not watched because it’s practice but also because people are in work. Also if you’re now asking peopl […]

What on Earth are the other comments on here about? He is a hugely experienced F1 driver. If he had decided to retire then fine – that’s his and his family’s decision. He’s decided to continue racing and has chose […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Which of 2020's seven lost F1 drivers deserve a chance to return? 2 years ago
It baffles me that Hulkenburg is written off by lots of people for not getting a podium. For the majority of seats in F1 solid consistency is more important than the odd spectacular race. Take Kvyat as an example […]

This is very good news – whatever your thoughts on Hulkenburg he was better than the alternative of Gutierrez. I really hope he gets his podium finally. Would be a very strange situation if he does finally achieve that!

Something I’m interested in is whether codemasters have implemented different AI for different drivers. The discussion of hiring different drivers in ‘my team’ mode sounds interesting but in previous years I think […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Why the pandemic will force change upon F1, for better or worse 2 years, 9 months ago
I know there will be an economic downturn but the research so far has suggested it will be a short sharp shock not a long drawn out depression like after 08. Thus what I said holds true – the biggest focus for F1 […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Why the pandemic will force change upon F1, for better or worse 2 years, 9 months ago
I’m slightly confused as to why there is so much talk about drastic effects on the sport multiple years into the future. F1s problem with covid is that they are going to lose a tonne of money this year and that w […]

Awful idea
shadow13 commented on the post, Is F1's feeder series giving its champions the schooling they need? 3 years, 4 months ago
The thing that baffles me most with F2 is that nobody really cares about it. Take football as a counter example – millions of people watch the premier league but a lot of people still watch the championship too. […]

What happened with Bottas time that didn’t count and then was reinstated?
shadow13 commented on the post, Rate the race: 2018 Italian Grand Prix 4 years, 5 months ago
To me this race was entirely about pitstops, a lap 1 incident and team orders – I genuinely find it hard to see how that makes a fantastic race.
