@adrianmorse i stand corrected, you are right!

It wasn’t just that he was gambling on not being able to be overtaken. He hadn’t used two different sets of tires up to that point in the race, Red Bull were literally gambling on a red flag to keep their win, or […]

Thoroughly disappointing British Grand Prix weekend, what with none of those things being announced. I now only have the on track stuff to look forward to

I wouldn’t mind having the Australian and Brazilian GPs being cancelled if COTA gets to have a double header as indicated by the promoters, but the insistence to have 23 races under any condition is a bit too much for me

I think the penalty points system is alright, even if maybe sometimes a bit too harsh for minor infringements. The problem with Norris’s most recent penalty points is that they were handed to him for a racing […]

Reminds me of the Taroco Orange McLaren (or however it was called) because the Taroco looked more like the Papaya orange on TV. This should be an option for Aston Martin as well and i don’t think it’s such a bad idea

The Zoom call filled me with confidence about F1’s future

The change in outlook for the future of the sport since Liberty Media took over has been as drastic as it has been positive. The people who saw the f […]

There’s a couple of things called ‘jokes’ and ‘banter’ Simon.

I didn’t watch the race but comparing it to Johnson (maybe this is a bit of an unfair comparison given their respective backgrounds and Jimmie’s age) who had a full preseason testing program and integration into […]

@bascb No bolting the halo on isn’t really an easy solution. They’d have to redo the monocoque for that because you can’t just drill some holes on a carbon fibre chassis unfortunately. Unless the aeroscreen has […]

Maybe he’s angling for an adjustement for the aeroscreen for street circuits, like for example removing the screen and racing only with the halo like structure in street circuits. Which makes sense to me honestly, […]

100% agree, but there’s a few layers to the event. Ferrari says the driveshaft broke somewhere between Mirabeau and Portier, it was fine in the garage and through S1, and secondly, the teams apparently aren’t […]

Yes but if you allow the washers, then maybe you can allow the teams to change some skid pads in parc ferme, why even stop there, change whole weels, suspension components, the crash structures, anything. You can […]

Indy does it too much for my taste. Sometimes it’s very difficult to keep track of who’s who and which car belongs to which team. At the most recent race Joseph Newgarden’s car looked a lot like Will Power’s car, […]

As far as the orange/blue combo goes, i feel like the 2018 and 2019 (especially 2019) were better than what McLaren currently runs :/
I wonder if this is foreshadowing a rebrand for next year though, even though […]

Well if we’re being pedantic they fell last year. Last time Ferrari had a season nearly as bad as that heads started rolling all over Maranello, they seem to have learned from that mistake and put faith in their […]

Ah i seem to have missed that. Changing the barriers around the exit of 2 corners would take about a day i reckon, 2 tops. So yeah as you mention, definitely enough time to do it.

I was too young to remember […]

@montreal95 The problem isn’t the track itself, rather the run off. There’s literally no space to make the run off wider and at the speed that the cars would take the last corner with the old configuration would […]

It’s not like the wind blows only Williams’ way. There’s 18 other cars on track at the same time, the fact that the Williams is the only one having trouble with the wind points more towards their own shortcomings, […]

@cduk_mugello While you’re not exactly wrong, you should consider the fact that the new price in some regions is a significant chunk of the mean monthly income for a household. In Turkey, from what i’ve read at […]
