For those saying I’m ashamed to be English “at the moment” this isn’t a new problem. For centuries the British lower classes have been used as a tool to spread “civilisation” to the four corners of the earth using […]

@daniboyf1 how does Max’s deleted pole lap fit into that prediction?

A problem with this poorly thought out tactic which I haven’t seen mentioned in this thread is that presumably the female who becomes the ‘chosen one’ will already have attempted to make the ESports elite before […]

Correction: Leclerc almost split the Mercs and both ferraris are quick in sector 2 which means the car is handling well and possibly has more down force which will help with tyre wear in the race

If Verstappen wasn’t there Hamilton would be purple in every sector, brilliant!!

Ferrari for me are the huge surprise, Leclerc almost split them. What confidence from him to leave his one and only Q3 run to […]

I have a completely unproven theory that the next generation are just faster than the likes of Hamilton, Vettel etc. They’re using new training techniques and fine tuning every aspect of the sport to a degree not […]

No @rockgod (great name BTW!) @jureo didn’t say “only” races not won by lewis were fun.

Whomever gets in that car will be under extreme pressure this weekend! I’d like to see how Russell would do in it since he’s likely to head that direction eventually anyway. The one plus is it won’t take long to […]

Arthur Leclerc is showing great skills in the regional euro series, you get superlicence points for that I think.
He had a great performance in the wet recently that made me think he could have what it takes.

@f1osaurus It’s different to most team sports. Take drivers and engineers, engineers are hired based on ability alone whereas drivers are hired based on ability, sponsorship and sometimes notoriety (not just data […]

F1 currently doesn’t feel like a battle between the worlds top drivers.

Maybe this could be a solution:

Have a three race, equal machinery series towards the end of the season between all current F1 […]

Hamilton can now finish 3rd in every race and still win his 7th Championship equaling the great Schumacher in perhaps the most important stat.

Michael Schumacher Snr. didn’t light the world on fire with his pre-F1 performances.

Is it a case like all sports that the systems and selection processes evolve to provide a larger sample of talent who are […]

That leave 11 spaces for better drivers

I disagree, it’s easier to list drivers who deserve a seat in F1 than those who don’t.
That is making the over simplified assumption that the top 20 drivers should be in F1. And ignoring factors such as […]

Is this a case of a previous champ having more marketing value than an actual in form driver?

I can’t think of a previous champ who went off the boil and then switched teams to win.

McLaren went off the boil […]

They could use the original circuit for out/inlaps in Q1/2 that will avoid the twisty middle sector.

Because it takes longer to complete a lap on the original circuit there’ll be no need to adjust the timing system.

F1 is in such a great place right now. A great bunch of super talented youngsters (Leclerc, Albon, Verstappen, Russel, Sainz, Norris) all of whom are World Champ material pitted against legendary stalwarts […]

Man that’s an ugly comment!

Amplified by the fact that it’s about such a non-ugly person.
