BBC F1 is great but motor sport coverage in Britain is getting worse 10th June 2009, 7:00
BBC F1 are doing a marvellous job in their first year back as F1′s broadcasters in Britain. That much is clear on the live blogs whenever fans outside Britain get a glimpse of BBC’s work and comment on how good it is. But although it’s great to finally see some improvement in Formula 1 broadcasting, [...]

F1 is great – but it’s only on 17 times a year! On other weekends I look elsewhere to get my racing fix – whether I’m in the stands or on the sofa. Here are the races I’ll make sure to see in 2009 – what are you favourites? Share this article with your friends: [...]
IndyCar pretending to be F1? 3rd April 2009, 20:59
Jonathan at Sports Rubbish has spotted what looks like some downright cheeky behaviour on the part of Indy Racing League broadcaster Versus – and it’s happening on this very site. Versus seem to be running Google ads using the keyword ‘Formula 1′ directing people to its coverage of the first round of the 2009 IRL [...]

Olympians, like F1 drivers, told to keep their celebrations under control 27th August 2008, 15:00
The international running-and-jumping festival Olympics finally came to a close over the weekend.

FIA’s plans for Formula 2 shows Max Mosley wants war with Bernie Ecclestone 25th June 2008, 20:25
A surprise announcement from today’s FIA World Motor Sports Council today revealed the FIA wishes to set up a new feeder series to Formula 1. It will be called Formula 2, reviving the name used for a similar series until 1984, before it was replaced by Formula 3000 and, later, GP2. But why is the [...]
