Sounds like you want a Motorsports equivalent to wwe

To be fair Hamilton lost out to ocon and stroll due to a poor stop, then overtaken by Albion and gasly on hot rubber just after exiting. If it had been a good stop he probably would have been in 10th (at least […]

Not to mention the fact that is a safety issue. They don’t just close pitlanes on a whim (Usually!)

The bumper was still attached to the kart when he crashed too, which means that he physically removed it. That then goes from throwing it in frustration to premeditation. People have done jail time for throwing […]

I agree. Shame to lose the track though, it looks like a good circuit

Closing the pitlane is only done for safety reasons, therefore its considered in breach of safety rules and therefore a 10 second stop go is the minimum they can give I believe

I don’t believe the idea is purely to hamper the big teams, surely a large part of it is to provide the smaller teams with more air time. Usually during q1 and q2 we still spend most of the time watching the top […]

I believe the other teams are struggling to make a nose like this pass the crash test. If rumours are to be believed, Williams are hoping to have a merc style nose by the start of the season

Are those cameras even legal? I thought they all had to run standard camera mounts this year

I remember getting one with a copy of f1 magazine, maybe they’ll do it again before the season begins?

@Kingshark

You do realise that aerodynamics also play a role on the straights right? As was already mentioned the Williams tended to have better straight line speed than the Mercedes, are you going to claim […]

If they were to base it purely on success it would be an easy decision. The issue with Jensen is more that they’ve left him and Kevin hanging for too long to actually go and sort out anything else for next year

Have Bentley and Vauxhall actually trademarked the names though? Thats what seems to be the issue, its not exactly their name to trademark

Well then the rumours that Williams are interested in the Honda engines would almost certainly come to fruition! (assuming they’re competitive of course)

Even if it dies off now, it’ll be back, electric motors have the potential for much more power than petrol engines, we just don’t have the battery tech to make the most of them

Looks as though they’ve literally just picked the top four teams in the championship there

And 2 for Felipe

On the BBC Forum Ricciardo said that he was actually originally told to pit but he radioed back asking if he could stay out because his tyres still had plenty of grip, so he was actually on a 2 stop but made the […]

Except Maldonado didn’t change lines, he just turned in earlier than Gutierez expected, and since he did leave him enough space its hardly his fault. For once I don’t think Maldonado was the cause of this. If […]

To be fair it was pure bad luck either way. Gutierrez lost power just as Vettel was right behind him. He’d never have been given a penalty for that even before the softer stance thing, esp as it only impeded himself
