F1 Fanatic

He drives for AF Corse in the WEC so likely it’s just a “hey why don’t you come be one of our VIP guests this weekend” type of things. Oooor (dramatic pause) he could be Massa’s replacement come 2014……..

Or the reason it was such a slow lap was because they had to stop & change tires every few turns.

[Insert timely joke about the degradation of the tires here]

haha

Idea:
Step 1 — Bring back refueling & mandate that the tanks have to be a certain size, let’s say enough that a race can be done on 3 stops (so if you count the fuel onboard from the start it would be 4 fuel […]

Maybe a stupid question here but why did the change the tire compound in the first place if the 2012 tires worked the way they wanted them to work? Maybe it’s just an American way of thinking but our racing series […]

I always though Mugen was the in-house Honda preformance brand? Like TRD, Nismo, HSV, Ralliart, etc..

It may not be that the Ferrari engines are the cheapest but that they have so many conditions & clauses in their supply contract that nobody else really wants them? “Is the hassle worth the possible […]

@coefficient, isn’t that the truth though for any manufacture who is seriously looking at getting into any form of motorsports? You prototype & design on the downlow meanwhile you’re running the equivalent of a […]

Caterham also works with Coswoth outside of F1 as well, just like the majority of Lotus street cars are Toyota powered. The McLaren F1 was BMW powered yet their actual F1 cars were Honda, Ford, Peugeot & Mercedes […]

If it weren’t for the fact that Vodafone is leaving (or appears to be leaving) I wouldn’t be so fast on the “they’re gonna drop the Silver (Pewter?)” bandwagon as Vodafone cars in all forms of motorsports over the […]

I’m putting my money on Caterham with and outside chance of Sauber or Williams.

Something I’ve been wondering for awhile is what do the numbers on the pitbox tape (50 40 30 20 10 0 10 20 30 40 50) represent?

Why buy Lotus when the rumor is that RB is looking to offload Toro Rosso on the cheap. Though it will be interesting to see if a midfield team like Williams or if one of the 2 back-of-the-pack teams (my bet is on […]
