shadow13 commented on the post, Red Bull clear Verstappen and Ricciardo of blame for crash 4 years, 9 months ago
Just to correct the few comments (in various places not just here) I’ve seen suggesting Ricciardo weaved more. Yes he did but he’s allowed – he can weave 10 times if he wants. It’s the defending car that is […]
shadow13 replied to the topic How could F1 implement "guest" drivers? in the forum
Formula One 5 years, 8 months ago
It’s an intriguing idea. The main issue I can see are how would teams that are struggling to compete currently going to afford to produce another car? Maybe they could make the money back with a pay driver for the race but it’s unlikely. I think there’s also the issue of what happens if for instance Mercedes fielded an extra drive next race and…[Read more]
shadow13 commented on the post, Raikkonen edges Bottas in first practice 5 years, 9 months ago
Yeah I’m hoping he picks up. Like @frood19 says it hasn’t exactly been a fair test yet but I was expecting to be impressed this season and yet every race its interesting seeing where Alonso can wrestle that car to […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Raikkonen edges Bottas in first practice 5 years, 9 months ago
I know there are heavy extenuating circumstances but has anybody else been underwhelmed by Vandoorne? I didn’t expect him to beat Alonso by any means but he’s not even close in any session. Whether it’s practice, […]

I reckon Ocon has good potential to be a long term F1 driver. Maybe not world champion level but he’s showing signs of solid consistency which is invaluable for midfield teams.
shadow13 commented on the post, Bahrain Grand Prix gets second-highest rating in a decade 5 years, 9 months ago
One of the key differences between casual fans and hardcore fans is the knowledge of all the drivers and teams by the hardcore fans – this means when say if Alonso is defending from a Red Bull hardcore fans will […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Rate the race: 2017 Bahrain Grand Prix 5 years, 9 months ago
I think overtaking is in the best state it’s been in since I’ve started watching F1 (1999 season). The overtakes are all hard fought and well deserved, yet we still actually get overtakes. The last few years of […]

Thank god somebody else can see it – all that’s being said about Palmer is that he’s done well to get into Q3 but the gap between him and Hulkenburg is ridiculous. What it does say to me though is if even Palmer […]
shadow13 commented on the post, 2017 Bahrain Grand Prix grid 5 years, 9 months ago
Stroll and Palmer are just being embarrassed by their teammates. Fair enough to be beaten by more experienced teammates but they’re nowhere near. I really hope they don’t get drives for next year, well unless they […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Alonso will miss the Monaco Grand Prix to race in the Indianapolis 500 5 years, 9 months ago
I get what you mean to an extent but realistically that Mclaren isn’t going to be on the podium in Monaco and for a driver who has already won championships driving it beyond its limits to get a 6th place or […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Giovinazzi will replace Wehrlein again in China 5 years, 10 months ago
There has to be something more to this. It seems very strange for Wehrlein to be fine enough that he drove in practice for Melbourne but then suddenly pulled out of the race and now isn’t fit 2 weeks later. Surely […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Bring back V10 engines, says Verstappen 5 years, 10 months ago
The problem with this is that most teams are not manufacturers. So opening up engine regulations we’d have Ferrari, Mercedes, Renault and Honda creating new engines. These teams would create engines far superior […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Red Bull sure "different concept" will pay off 5 years, 10 months ago
@graham228221 @tonyyeb I meant in relation to F1 although that isn’t very clear. In comparison to most series I agree its got a pretty good lineup. I still wish Vergne had got more of a chance in F1.

Only just seen that I got COTD – well chuffed!

shadow13 commented on the post, Australian GP gets second-lowest rating in a decade 5 years, 10 months ago
@shoponf 100% no! We surely want drivers to fight for position?? Do we not all commend it when a driver in a clearly slower car manages to keep a faster driver behind? Should they just pull over and let them pass […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Ferrari: "We need to be involved in Formula E" 5 years, 10 months ago
@ducpham2708 whilst I partially agree that Formula E is not a particularly exciting formula in terms of its spectacle at the moment – due to noise, circuits, poor quality drivers..etc I think it naive to assume it […]
shadow13 commented on the post, Ferrari: "We need to be involved in Formula E" 5 years, 10 months ago
This could be great for Formula E – Ferrari brings a lot of fans with it and a move into Formula E could bring Formula E more into the mainstream.
