Another plus to the man is his dedication of the win to Peter Bonnington whom he said had endured a ‘difficult week’.

+ 1. Alonso’s resistance in his Mclaren to Vettel was good to watch:)

The Canadian GP even for the viewer at home seems to have a certain feel, air or atmosphere about it that is interestingly European. And […]

There was quite a number of DRS passes in the race and as always people blame DRS as one of F1’s major problems. The problem is the DRS was introduced because people, wait for it, complained that races were boring […]

I think most of the people who voted in support of the smaller teams would not want to hear Max Mosley campaign for them.

I don’t even know why the man feels his opinions on things concerning Formula one are […]

-But he (Bonnington) did that… THREE TIMES!

I think you did not understand his comment. Even if Peter told Hamilton 10 times to stay out and Hamilton kept saying everyone will pit and be on better tyres the […]

You are right. It was a lapse in information that is to blame.

He is a driver. He cannot drive into the pits without being called in. ‘He over rode the team twice’ is not a correct way of putting it. If he said, ‘No, I must pit’ then that is more like over-riding instruction. […]

-He thought others were stopping and insisted on it.

Exactly.
I wonder why Peter or any other team higher-up did not cut in to tell Lewis that there was no plan at all to pit Nico. For the guy to repeat that […]

This is some good news.
Manor couldn’t be hiring these talents without any long term plans in F1. And long term plans especially in this sport usually means availabilty or certain expectation of capital.

To […]

Well- written piece with suggestions on what could be done rather than the usual complaints we get to hear from nearly everyone.

Tyre warming, as little as the costs may be, should simply go. Nothing to worry […]

‘Insecurities’, ‘paranoia’ I guess are new words to replace ‘childish’ and ’emotional’.

Anyway, he was not the only one who remarked about their tyres to the team. Some actually used very colourful words to do […]

It is very ridiculous for anyone to think there was a conspriracy or anything of that sort. What happened last Sunday was a mega blunder and that’s it.

Concerning the radio conversation, if there is one thing […]

Yes, you are right. His happiness of course is subject to how long it takes Mclaren to present him with a car he can drive to the front. But I do think he is not too bothered about Ferrari’s performance this year, […]

Mercedes shouldn’t even consider gifting Hamilton a win. That is too sentimental, corny, cheesy and absolutely immature.

As someone who admires Hamilton as a driver and will rise to his defence/support […]

@keithcollantine I actually laughed when I read your reply implying that I was referring to you. Not all.

In fact on the contrary, you have only increasingly become more and more objective than anyone could be […]

I marvel at the need for some people to always find a way to blame Hamilton for whatever error or driving incidences that involve him. Sometimes, it is understandable because fans will always be fans but in such […]

Button is a good driver with a well-earned world championship. But I don’t think he can beat Alonso.

As some have mentioned, Alonso has finished ahead in races where both have finished. I think when they sort […]

‘Formula One needs to solve its problems on its own,’

Short, straight to the point and fully loaded.

– Personally, I think these decisions should be taken out of their hands, formulated by a third party (something akin to TOCA) and then presented to all the teams.

Now, that’s an idea worth taking seriously.

I guess by publicly calling for a meeting and making the decisions known in this manner, a message has been sent that they are indeed taking necessary steps needed to remedy ailments afflicting the sport.

What […]
