F1 Fanatic

With all due respect, I don’t think that’s really the point.

You shouldn’t have to just concede position because you want points and a ‘greater’ car is coming through. If you say that, you may as well blue flag […]

I was about to ask what changes had been made to Monaco since the crash…

You have to wonder whether we’ll see a similar off. And if we do, the consequences of what track changes we may see in the […]

Also, look at the championship..

The cream rises to the top. Those who can cope with this ‘new’ F1 are still the best drivers. Simple as that. Nothing’s changed there.

Here’s my feelings posted elsewhere:

So Sky have jumped on the bangwagon of ‘too much of a good thing’ and how the sport ‘needs back to back […]

Yep, you’re absolutely right!

I struggle to tell the difference between the two at times.

I was watching the F1 2004 season review last night (with your mate Will Buxton doing commentary!) and it’s quite shocking how much quicker those cars look through the corners.

Looking at the Google map of this circuit, I notice two things in regards to the safety of the track:

1) Isn’t this not too disimilar to Mugello? I’m looking at the run-off size/use of gravel, and it’s all […]

Thanks for that, PM. I think it’s a logical move.

I also heard they’d be making some pretty major changes to the final corner. I think they’re moving the grandstand back to put in some run-off, that it desperately needs.

The novelty of DRS has worn off for me, I think.

I was open to the idea, even quite liked the idea. It worked a treat last year, but it doesn’t seem apt this year. I’m hoping this trend continues.

I’d like […]

I more meant of the 1994 San Marino weekend! Thanks for the link, anyway.

It’s just I know Keith was probably watching it at the time, so it’d be interesting to hear more of a first-hand account.

Would be cool to perhaps hear about San Marino 1994 and a more personal account from you?

Lovely article, Keith. Really enjoyed that. Thank you.

I think the lack of tarmac invasion/trees and greenery surrounding Vitaly have perhaps made him feel a little faint…

I was about to say, Keith, they’re almost a substitute for the gravel. I understand people will say ‘yeh, but that’s on track!’, but clearly it hasn’t deterred many from making a move.

A logical, well-thought out response.

I’m starting to wonder what Pirelli are doing in F1..!

Dead on, Keith.

I can’t stand this bandwagon jumping.

Do you want good racing, or boring racing? I think we can narrow it down to that.

Also, if it were Romain P1 and Kimi P2, i’d say it’d be very wrong to swap the order.

But if you got one driver on the quicker tyre being slightly held up by your guy infront of him on the slower tyre, and […]

To everyone who thinks it wouldn’t have made any difference, I beg to differ. A few laps worth of life on tyres means everything now. And it’s not just wasting laps, it’s the extra deg you get from sitting close […]

I think in this instance, team orders were definitely the right thing to do.

I think the fact both Kimi and Romain were on different tyres could have been enough of an ‘excuse’ to tell Romain he needs to move […]

Yeh, a great piece there, Keith.

One thing – Didn’t Imola use the Variante Bassa (sp?) back then, as well as the final chicane?
