So Red Bull use Toro Rosso as a further season long experiment for Honda to get their engine up to speed until 2019 when they switch RBR to Honda and sweep the deck […]

A giant of a man and a damn fine driver. RIP Niki and thanks for the memories.

Just wait till later in the year when one driver has 7 or 8 extra points for fastest laps and is suddenly in contention for the championship, dont worry Max, it wont be you, but Leclerc could well cause an upset […]

Money money money….

Boy needs to grow up a bit.

Very sad by this decision .. only 2 championships when I 5hink he drserv3d maybe 5 on talent. Good luck Senor !

Like many here, I have followed Motor racing history for a long time, The Triple Crown is a great achievement, to be able to adapt to three completely different racing styles and win out is great. Just my opinion, […]

From another site
The estate is in Stevenage
As a child Hamilton lived on the Shephall estate. If not exactly the ghetto, no one could confuse the humble Sixties housing here with a breeding ground of advantage.

Have you ever been to Le Mans for the 24 hours. Any winner in any car deserves all the praise they can get. Don’t demean a great event. Hats off to Alonso.. He has made no secret of wanting the Triple Crown and […]

Define working class as opposed to middle class. Lewis was brought up within a working class background.

I bought a fanvision unit thinking I could use it for a few seasons and Bernie pulled the plug, leaving me with a useless piece of 300 dollar crap.
I wonder if the new systems will still work after 5 years ….maybe not.

How long before we hear Daniel say, “Not bad for a number two driver !”

100% Max’s fault, the writing is on the wall when RB dont slap the kid down as they should. He is fast but way too dangerous.
I think […]

I think a number of the senior drivers who have been on the receiving end of some of MV more dodgy moves are thinking, well if it means we have an accident to put some manners on you, so be it. Kimi, Seb and Lewis […]

Extremely good strategy from Ferrari, they were running two and three, so they opted to undercut and overcut when as history shows, there’s always a chance of a safety car or other issue. For me it was text book […]

Please please no more Max Mosley stories he’s not F1 anymore !

Still like the idea as it would force drivers to push like crazy to try and build up a gap. Also it wouldn’t punish the driver to the extent a 15 place grid penalty does . Interesting concept.

Instead of points give the driver a time penalty to be served at the first pit stop.
Simple 5 seconds for 5 grid place and 10 etc.
Patented!

A big welcome to my favourite F1 site.

Cotd.. plus a million.
Villenueve is irritating and so far up his own …. He can’t see the sun shine!

Ok reference grid penalties mentioned by Gasly.
Instead of a 5 or 10 or 20 place grid penalty .
A 5 or 10 or 20 second penalty to be taken during the first round of pit stops.
That way the driver starts where […]
