@kossur7 I challenge your theory. It helped Lotus turn what was an impossible 2-stop race, into a 2-stop. They helped Lotus shave that extra stop from what would’ve been soft-soft-hard-hard – while with 3 sets of […]

F1 3 weeks, 4 days agoGiven that we had the same 4 races to start 2012 and 2013, I thought it would be interesting to compare the championships in a snapshot compared to at the same point last year after the first four flyaway […]

raymondu999 replied to the forum topic FIA telemetry and DRS in the group
F1 3 weeks, 4 days agoThe thing that makes this situation quite dubious is that Alonso, on the two consecutive laps, activated his DRS at two different points on the straight. Either he went too early on the first, or too late on the second.

F1 3 weeks, 4 days agoSo as a follow-up to my previous post, here’s footage from a lap later.
What is clearly visible now is that Alonso is no longer opening his DRS as early as he was on the preceding lap:
The FOM feed does a […]

F1 3 weeks, 5 days agoOne thing that surprised me was that with the telemetry still out cold, they don’t seem to be able to police the DRS activation, or simply didn’t bother.
For example, Alonso activated his DRS actually way […]

This was before his DRS failure, as I pointed out quite explicitly. Unless, of course, you skipped the last paragraph and 2 pictures of my post?

F1 4 weeks, 1 day ago@abdurahman Placido Domingo at Hungary. Not sure I liked it – he seemed to be a bit of an Alonso fanboy. Thing is you need someone to be impartial to do that – or at least act impartial.

I’d also like to see Muzza do it at Silverstone, and perhaps […]

@me262 are you saying that Webber can’t finish ahead of Vettel on the same engine mode? He certainly hasn’t this season.

@omarr-pepper he did beat Webber in 2010 and 2011 though. Webber outfinished Vettel in 2011, but that was either:
a) team orders to give the faithful #2 a “thank you” victory

b) a gearbox problem Vettel […] - Load More
