F1 Fanatic

Alonso: C’mon man, gimme a shot of your bong.

Kimi: No.

Well I just voted for Sergio, and I’m an Alonso fan. I understand why Alonso should maybe get it, but Perez was pulling away from Hamilton who is in a quicker car, and he was catching Alonso who is a formidable […]

I actually meant Raikkonen’s one I especially liked, But I don’t mind Kobayashi’s either!

Must say I prefer the drivers who keep it simple. A helmet should be easily recognisable from a distance, having complex details crammed in just makes it look like someone spewed on it…. I love Kobayashi’s […]

Surely the angled step will have an aerodynamic use, it is such a large angled “wing” in my eyes it must have some impact and add a not insignificant bit of downforce…. my aeronautical engineering knowledge is […]

I should have made that clearer, I did mean FOM upping their prices to the circuits which then gets passed on to us.

As for the circuits accepting it… maybe we’re starting to see the cracks appear and FOM, or […]

I want to know why FOM need to keep upping the prices… have they seriously been losing money which they’re now trying to claw back? I doubt it but if so I’d like to know about it. And if not then FOM are just […]

To be fair I think for us UK viewers every moment of this race was amazing, even the incredibly long delay with non stop commentary during it all. Was just one of those great Sunday afternoons that went on and on, […]

I’m glad the BBC are getting him, definitely a good commentator and thank god Legard isn ‘t coming back! :p

I’m also glad they’re not sharing the commentary team as was proposed since I didn’t see how that […]

I find Anthony Davidson at times to clearly be a bit resentful that he’s not out there racing, but it’s mostly tongue in cheek and he does offer some great insight into a modern racing driver’s thoughts and […]

I really hope Sky push FOM to improve their coverage as you request. It’s absolutely necessary. Even looking at the Sky F1 channel trailers, they’ve used more cinematic cameras trackside and in the pits to capture […]

This is sad news. F1 won’t succeed in America if F1 keeps mucking them about. The ridiculous Indy race with most of the field not participating is one thing to annoy the potential fanbase, and now if FOM are […]

I’m split on this…. mainly because when it comes to midfield, or indeed, lower teams what difference does it make? They have two ok drivers, one of whom is experienced but well past his prime and who is […]

IT really does look like an Americanised Monaco… which to me is fantastic. Has some wide bits, some windy bits, a really nice looking hairpin, and a greta overall setting and backdrop. Much better than some […]
