F1 Fanatic

@tdog Magnussen is different though in that he’s part of McLaren’s young driver program. So he has strong backing to get a race seat sooner rather than later. Interestingly, Vandoorne is also a McLaren young driver.

@journeyer I agree that Magnussen is looking a very good shot for this year’s title, and generally whoever who wins the WSR 3.5 title is worthy of an F1 seat, particularly given the depth of the field the last […]

I’m 99% sure Magnussen will be in F1 next year. Only question is, with which team? If anything, I’m surprised he hasn’t popped up in more people’s 2014 predictions on the silly season thread.

Oh, does […]

@mian Er.. Magnussen is a member of the McLaren Young Driver Programme. He doesn’t need sponsors..

+1 Michael Christensen

And there’s just so much hype around da Costa, even though Kevin is doing way better. Hopefully we will see him in F1 soon, I think he definitely deserves a seat since he’s one of the […]

Magnussen is so great. Future F1 champ for sure
I wouldn’t be so quick to jump to that conclusion. He’s quick, sure, and he’s running away with it when everyone expected Antonio Felix da Costa to be the man to […]

Not a bad race, but I thought the TV coverage was rather disappointing. Somehow they managed to completely miss a first-lap pile-up at Eau Rouge that took 4 cars out, only cutting to it once the drivers had […]

Da Costa’s championship chances are ever fading away. I just hope he can still turn things around.

Vandoorne must have had a terrible day on his home track: qualified 13th, via live timing I saw him drop to […]

No idea how the race is going, as the WSR website has had a nasty crash. But Race 1 will be on British Eurosport at 7.45am on Sunday morning…

Why show a live event when you can show the same tennis match as […]

No doubt Vandoorne is gunning for victory this weekend, it’s quite rare for a Belgian to win anything on Spa (except for some local Belgian touring car championships). In fact never in history has a Belgian […]
