Active aero sounds like a lovely idea, though often F1 turned a good idea into a disastrous gimmick. Active aero is not an industry standard but I’d be very keen to see polymorphic cars in the future. Hopefully it […]

Having your company’s logo on a car driven by a Schumacher and displayed to hundreds of millions fans is pretty marketable, even if the car finishes last I guess.

We’re close. We’re not miles away from Mercedes and Red Bull comparing to last season.
Norris finished 46 seconds behind Hamilton, about half a lap (2.7 km – or about 1.7 miles) . So he’s not wrong per se but it […]spoutnik commented on the post, Removal of turn nine chicane to cut F1 lap times by five seconds at Albert Park 2 weeks, 1 day ago

Dear Otmar,
Copying last year’s Mercedes, then complaining that current floor changes is harming you is ridiculous.

Fair enough, let’s say it was one of the most reliable in the test.

Hopefully that car is able to get in the mix for third place, I’d love seeing a five-way battle for third. It did not look particularly quick but it’s probably one of the most reliable in the pack. Also, no driver […]

Went for Alpine, a lovely distinctive and striking livery! Then with returnees it’s still RedBull to my eyes, those contrasts are still very catchy.

Mercedes may eventually overcome the laps deficit with their engineering power. I’m more worried for Haas as their direct rivals lodged many more laps this morning, hopefully it isn’t too bad.
