F1 Fanatic

I just couldn’t get my head around the point-and-click driving style. It is a shame though that it didn’t take off, a team somewhere had obviously put in a heck of a lot of effort as it looked fantastic for a […]

@tony031r @andae23 au contraire, F1 is boring because drivers can’t be at all reckless – they have to be totally risk-averse. The teams might take a risk in strategy, but drivers are tiptoeing around at 70-80% […]

5 – pretty boring to be honest. Doesn’t really compare to GP2/GP3 does it?

Agree 100% with COTD.

It’s not some ‘yoof generation’ that these gimmicks are aimed at. It’s the much more vague ‘casual fan’ that FOM are desperately trying to cater for.

The type that have never or have […]

First race I ever watched! (Due to my 1 year old waking at 4am and refusing to go back to sleep)

Watched every race since – so thanks Oscar (but don’t wake up that early again).

Ah thanks for the info @keithcollantine really helpful! If you can just sign up for a month at a time then I am more tempted. I can’t imagine watching it for much else, maybe the NASCAR sprint cup, but even then […]

Man that sucks, I really enjoyed IndyCar last season – every race was hugely entertaining I thought!

Can I justify getting ESPN? …. maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaybe :/ dammit!

This is easily the coolest, most enjoyable F1 competition out there! Also the most frustrating at times ;)

It’s been a loooooong time since my last race win: […]

It honestly annoys me how whenever the issue of more races arises, there is always lots of griping about it. Surely any race fan should be excited about more races?

If the calendar was structured in a more […]

Someone needs to take a chill pill

And are we really only allowed to compare 2012 to 2007?

Why not compare 2012 to the dire 2011 season? What about comparing it to the excellent 2008 or 2010 seasons?

totally agree – DRS is akin to having football without goalkeepers or having much bigger goals (as actually suggested once by Sepp Blatter I believe), you’ll have tons of goals but is that really adding to the […]

I’m going to Singapore this year, my second GP after Monza in 2011. Really cannot wait – September seems an age away!

Also planning on taking my 7 year old to some F3 at Brands Hatch – much closer to home :)

Sorry Caterham, may as well head home. Some guy has written off your chances for the entire season based on a few pictures – game over guys.

Alonso and Hamilton have both asked over the radio to be left alone in the past couple of years, so I don’t even see it as unusual to be honest. Kimi has a generally rather blunt manner, but he’s obviously popular […]

Anyone else beginning to get a bad feeling about Force India?

A mix of the genius and the godawful!

agreed, a stroke of genius!

I wonder if the swearing on the podium is a consequence of the amount of cussing the team encourages over the radio to avoid messages getting broadcast?
