F1 Fanatic

If they get on top of qualifying, then these guys will simply be too good even for Vettel. Give Alonso a fast car and he’ll do wonders. Their pace in Australia was frightening. They work best with these tyres too, […]

brilliant article Keith. Enjoyed it to the fullest. Just shows the brutal atmosphere in Formula 1. I do think Hamilton and Rosberg being friends gives Nico more of the upper hand in the mentality section. He […]

Jules Bianchi, although I hardly saw these backmarkers on TV. I would have awarded this to the top drivers but to see them whine, lie and also defy orders, I can’t. It was an interesting race nonetheless.

Now you can see the true differences between Vettel and Hamilton’s character. Hamilton acknowledges his team-mate’s better drive whereas Vettel remains ungrateful and devastatingly ruthless. Team Orders in F1 are […]

No other team comes close to Mercedes imho. Only other good pairings are the current Red Bull team and the Lotus. I don’t rate Webber that high, but Vettel is one of the top 3 drivers. Massa has improved a lot, […]

I would chose Alonso over Hamilton in the recent two years as well but to say Alonso was better in 2008 than Hamilton’s incredible championship win that year is just awkward. Hamilton was a sensation that year and […]

Bravo! Precisely explained.

While I remain a huge admirer of Hamilton’s true brilliance on the track, I still think he has a bit of catch up to do when compared with Alonso. He has the upper hand on qualifying but he lacks consistency over a […]

Good article, enjoyed it. I have huge doubts whether they can compete upfront next season, but 2014 can be a whole different story. I like how they played their chances down all throughout last season, means much […]

I think the only person talking nonsense was you @david-a. You are putting your own words on my mouth. When was it that I ever mentioned Button was in a league above Vettel? Holy….I only said Button inspired a […]

Shame to see him go but that team already has too many leading designers, engineers and folks who could easily become team principal of five different teams. Plus now they have Niki Lauda, some changes had to be […]

I agree with this ranking, to be frank Keith has always ranked drivers from the top drawer very accurately throughout the whole season. Vettel drove immaculately throughout the middle and end part of the season […]

At the end of the day, we are just comparing the top 3 drivers on the grid. When Lewis says Vettel is the luckiest driver on F1, you can certainly relate to it. But I think throughout the season, Alonso was the […]

I don’t understand why you have to put your words in my mouth. I never mentioned this nor did I imply such a thing. “vastly, superior and dominant car that destroyed the opposition”

RB8 was just as fast as the […]

Even through all this years of his racing, I have seen him start from the front and only then has he been able to win races. Alonso, Hamilton, Button and even Schumi back in his day did wonders coming from behind […]

Who else would be favourite? Vettel is clearly in the best car of the grid and he can surely clinch another title next year and many more as long as Adrian Newey and his team can grind out performance from all […]

I am not sure what you drive but if you have ever driven a Ferrari and for comparisons sake, the latest 458, you’ll definitely feel how it embraces the road and fights you and every single move you make. I haven’t […]

If Lewis wants to win this years WDC and potentially one more next year, then he should be staying at McLaren. If Lewis wants to win multiple WDCs and not just have a chance at it but actually dominate the way his […]
