    Ben commented on the post, Grid of surprises promises another China thriller 1 month, 1 week ago

    Wow.

    F1 has been literally turned on it’s head and it’s brilliant! Red Bulls, a McLaren and both Ferrari’s outqualified by Mercs, Saubers and a Lotus. And this in DRY conditions.

    I watched quali today […]

    Ben commented on the post, IndyCar 2012 season preview: A new beginning 2 months ago

    Indeed. It’s certainly going to be an emotional start to the season. Fingers crossed that there are no bad incidents this year. I can see IRL phasing out even more ovals in the future. It’s a bit of a shame as […]

    Ben commented on the post, IndyCar 2012 season preview: A new beginning 2 months ago

    I’ll certainly be attending the penultimate race in Baltimore this year. Maybe even Detroit too if I feel brave enough to venture out there.

    I hope that Will Power finally gets a championship under his belt […]

    While the KV car is typically in the top ten, the team haven’t been a match for the Penske or Ganassi cars. I’m actually expecting Rubens to struggle a bit. Taku didn’t exactly shine when he moved to indycar.

    We’ll see…

    Ben commented on the post, Red Bull want “tangible” limits on spending 2 months, 1 week ago

    Yeah he does seem to giggle a lot. Bit weird that. If it wasn’t for Brundle & Kravitz I would wait a few hrs and watch the Beeb instead. I think they need to use Ted Kravitz more. He’s a brilliant insight.

    Ben commented on the post, New HRT F112 seen for the first time in Spain 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    Really nice livery and in my opinion probably the 3rd nicest looking car on the grid this year (Behind the McLaren + RB8).

    I did notice a lack of bargeboards + aero devices. Also looks like there’s no drs […]

    Ben commented on the post, Rubens Barrichello confirms move to IndyCar 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    Really good news.
    I’ll certainly go out to watch him @ the Baltimore Grand Prix this year as it’s just on my doorstep. Can’t wait to see how he fairs in the road course championship (For those who didn’t know, […]

    It probably will be processional again but there’s always the question of who’s 18th on the grid.

    Well I’m a long suffering McLaren fan (Long suffering in terms of constructor’s championships) and I contrary to the past few seasons I don’t see that shoulders slumped bad vibe that’s usually in and around the […]

    Ben commented on the post, Vettel: McLaren “look strong” in testing 3 months ago

    Judging by past experience most Americans will absolutely lap up the Austin race. (No pun intended). The inaugural Baltimore Grand Prix (Indycar) I attended last year was a massive sell out and probably only 30% […]

    Ben commented on the post, Lotus hope to regain lost test days 3 months ago

    It could be a flaw in the design though that didn’t become apparent until the bumpy straight + high loads in Barc. But I’m with you on it being an engine mount problem.

    I do hope they’ll get a private test […]

    Eloquently put.

    Ben commented on the post, Caterham needed a “supported” driver, says Trulli 3 months, 1 week ago

    No surprises. Trulli didn’t win anyone over in Lotus last year by his constant whinging and let’s face it, his time has come to step aside.

    In Petrov, they bring in youth, cash and the possibility of a race in […]

    Ugly Una? Step-nosed Sarah?

    Ben commented on the post, Driver line-up confirmed for Jerez test 3 months, 2 weeks ago

    Autosport will do live text updates and I’m guessing that there will be a few spanish websites offering fairly up to date live times from Jerez like there were last year.

    Ben commented on the post, Red Bull RB8 launch – first pictures of Red Bull’s 2012 F1 car 3 months, 2 weeks ago

    In terms of the ‘stepped nose’ cars I think the RB8 is the best looking one so far (Closely followed by the Force India).

    As a Mclaren fan though I’m slightly worried that they’re the only ones (so far) that […]
