    BasCB commented on the post, Pirelli criticise “ludicrous” wait for 2014 tyre decision 2 hours, 49 minutes ago

    Thats very likely the biggest part of it @hohum, although the changes they would have to make with the complete suspension setup etc, would also mean different aero design, the mechanical work would be pretty much […]

    BasCB commented on the post, Williams tipped for Mercedes engine deal 12 hours, 18 minutes ago

    After seeing part 2 – linked above, I also had a look at part 1.

    Alonso doing it great, but with little margin for error. Grosjean much the same, Webber leaving a tad more room for error. Vettel going in with […]

    @tophercheese21 its not just Lotus and Ferrari, but clearly FI has done the same with far less resources and it pays off.

    Just as the teams that did bring a DDD in 2009 had an advantage, and Red Bull had an […]

    Even with throwing together not really matching statistics, and coming up with a pretty arbitrary amount of 1 and 0,5 seconds to account for DRS in qualifying, his article is not really convincing.

    Patrickl commented on the post, Ferrari have Mercedes within range as Red Bull lurk 22 hours, 33 minutes ago

    Coulthard beat Webber over a season. So Coulthard is obviously better than Webber, Hamilton, Rosberg and Schumacher …

    You’re seriously claiming that comparing a driver in his rookie season in a car that broke […]

    Well that could imply that Massa likes to ride the kerbs a bit too much and thus in fact explain the tyre failures.

    Well, if the finish is anywhere near as close as the Indy Lights race today was, it will be a shocker! 4 wide over the line, winning by a couple of centimeters!

    Uh, that article is in English, why would I need to translate it @gdon?

    But you are certainly right that its a very relevant article to the discussion. When its so hard to get these windtunnel tyres right, I […]

    But is Michelin really interested if there is not going to be tyre competition – and its certain that is not going to happen.

    I read several people reporting that Hankook is now interested, after having […]

    The idea was that there was 15 minutes to the restart. But they already started putting cars on trucks that were strewn about the track, so everyone who was not able to immediately drive on, and got out of their […]

    Would be great to have another tense finish this year, I really enjoyed last year.

    Strange, you get banned for a mistake at the start causing a crash, but not for dangerous driving. Much like we saw in F1 last year when Grosjean got the ban for the Spa start gaffe, but Maldonado’s dangerous […]

    @Kaiie, I have added a link to a (Kimi-fan) FB page who translated information on that from a finnish newspaper in my comment above, could you check the link to the likely source of that (its in Finnish, I just […]

    Yes, that is indeed the case – seems as a result of that Kimi will tape over the text part on top, so he can use the design – https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=588140747897252&l=b09de24d2e the source for […]

    Could just as well be to motivate himself. Remember him adding something about not crashing but racing or so last year?

    THe best by far, indeed.

    I do think Pastor adding that line is a nice touch.
