F1 Fanatic

It’s all a bit namby pamby really this tyre whining. All that should be done this year is find a more resilient way to secure the belt to the carcass and leave it at that.

Anyway, a change in specification […]

I know, my apologies for being facetious.

Racing is a wasteful indulgence at the end of the day so “road releveance” is a bit of a platitude to the green brigade. The technolgy is amazing but I can’t really […]

Indeed, its utterly imperative that we can all sustain speeds in excess of 200mph for 24 hours.

I think what we have witnessed with Caterham in Bahrain/Barcelona is them bolting John Iley’s (former head of aero at Mclaren) first aero package onto the car and seeing the results straight away. He only joined […]

He can teach them how to configuer an F1 steering wheel to best suit a driver with limited mobility in one arm I guess. Once that has been achieved I guess his innate speed can be used in the Simulator whilst the […]

White is Honda’s traditional racing colour though, always has been even in Motorcylces. Obvioulsy it gets adorned with other sponsors colours too but I think the base white was for Honda because Mclaren were […]

@Fisha695 Yes it is, I was responding to the comments immediately above mine which were implying that the Honda Motor would be poor.

My point was meant to argue in a roundabout way that I’m sure Honda have […]

You’re a fool if you think Honda have not been working on the 2015 engine since the rules were announced years ago by now. The Japanese Manufacturers can’t abide the shame of being beaten so they will have had a […]

Who arrived at Sauber from Force India this year on the technical side? I didn’t hear anything. Or are you just referring to Hulk?

This is the silly nature of the Button haters argument. It seems to me that had Button thrashed Hamilton some would only concede that Button was as good as him. Having merely matched him for results isn’t enough […]

Sutil, Top Talent? Priceless! LOL! He’s a midfield bog standard ordinary seat warmer for a more wealthy and even less talented replacement.

Sorry Flav, no-one believes you. Court case or not. Anyway, even if you didn’t know anything about crashgate all that shows is that you were incapable of keeping control of the team and were rightly sacked. […]

They didn’t just look wider, they were wider. The current maximum width of 1800mm has been in since 98 I think. It was part and parcel of the regulations to reduce cornering speeds following the research […]

Do we know the details of his contract? If he wins the title it might be that Lotus have the option to extend and he obliged to stay put.

This about sums it up! F1 is becoming more about gimmicks and less about the quest for performance. Its supposed to feature the most advanced cars in the world and they may well be but not for long. In fact I […]

Wow, Ferrari v10! Forgot how great the cars sounded back then. Schumacher’s driving back then was pure poetry, the car dancer elegantly to his commands back then, inch perfect! He has his detractors but there is […]

I don’t think this will make for pleasant reading back at Woking. It’s foolish to burn your bridges as you go because you may need to retreat back across them in the future. Yet another Hamilton clanger! Oh well, […]

They tested it plenty in pre-season. They just couldn’t get it to work in a way that inspired driver confidence. The device is simple to manufacture but hideously complex to make work in usable fashion.

Behaviours should read saviours. Sorry!

I find the Lauda /Wolff fiasco hugely insulting. They glide into the team just as Ross has completed the factory upgrade, hired the New technical team and got it up and running and got the W04 to the winter Test […]
