Dear Fia,
The edge of the track is defined by the white line. Amend the rules to state that a part of the must remain inside the white line at all times during a session. Problem solved.

Kind regards,
Common sense.

Finally. Some sense. We all want the drivers to push whenever they need to, and not just when the tyres allow.

But… If they did that at tracks where on track overtakes are near impossible, it would make for a […]

But then his talent did the rest, he was lucky – yes. But would any other driver have finished second without another mistake?
I doubt it.

Indeed, it’s not just the speed – it’s the speed while protecting his equipment. He can outrun someone who is going flat out in the same car while conserving fuel and tyres for when they’re needed. No other driver […]

It’s not just that he’s fast, it’s his deep and thorough understanding that makes him so hard to beat.
And the fact that he is just relentless, you can never say with certainty that he’s beaten in a race until it’s over.

I didn’t see the footage of Norris leaving the track. But Max did both times he was penalised.
Stay on the track, you won’t lose your time.

Just not a very funny one

Hard to disagree with the logic. I don’t recall, but wasn’t the section changed on safety grounds? Hard to justify undoing it, if it was.

I find the cost cap great, but I personally believe that repairs or replacing of parts of the same spec should be excluded.
Accidents happen, and a team – whether it’s Mercedes or HAAS should not struggle to […]

The bit that will be concerning Mercedes most of all is that if Perez makes a decent start, his soft tyres may well catapult him into the lead and compromise the Mercedes strategy while Red Bull use Perez to help […]

I think it’s the angle of the image, though having limited changes allowed to get the Mercedes power unit in there – they can be forgiven for a less than perfect shrink-wrap effort.

Bingo! Full set of excuses right there.

What do I win?

It’s about a lasting advantage. And Lewis had a warning about track limits during the race too. 1 more and it’s a penalty, he was told.

Max overtook him while off the track, that can’t be allowed to stand.

Why in earth would he be investigated for making a mistake and losing time?

Not yet, judging by that picture.

Alonso has his own personality to blame for lack of competitive drives. There is a very good reason most team principles don’t want him.

A racing driver is a special breed that I, and my family, know only too well. A mindset like no other.
He will race again, that’s without doubt – but I don’t blame him for being nervous of oval racing, it’s not […]

If your competition is faster than you while you’re both staying on the track, then your competition is faster than you. It’s easy to go faster if you ignore the racetrack.

I’m thankful he is alive, obviously, but the accident was Grosjeans own making.

I’m actually glad it was, can you imagine how another driver would feel if they caused it.

A horrendous crash, but Hamilton was […]

I said to my wife, “it’s taking too long to show a replay, he didn’t get out.”

Sitting, horrified, waiting for news.
Then the pictures of him looking very shocked, but sat in the medical car. Pure […]
