F1 Fanatic

This really is sad news, and a stark reminder of why safety needs to remain paramount in all we do in Motorsport. Myself I am part of the East African Rally Championship, which next week sees our round in Tanzania […]

I disagree with some of this. Jenson and Hamilton are matched very evenly when it comes to overall results for a season, but Hamilton does have that bit extra to give that Jenson can’t always muster. When […]

I thought this too.. because ultimately, Istanbul Park is one of the better, if not best of the “new” circuits in recent years. Its awesome to drive (in computer games) and has a flow and character that lots of […]

haha! This all smacks a bit too much of him almost giving up now he’s leaving at the end of the year.

interesting. I like the fact we can now be quite retrospective with hamilton’s career as he has been here long enough now. I think he is not the person they thought he’d grow up into when they took him on as a […]

yeah I’m also not a huge fan of these overly blurred photos… surely these are not the “best” of the weekend. The one of Heikki second from last looks like the kinda photo that a four year old would take. When […]

arguably so. But either way (and I accept your comments, that actually this year, Lewis has made fewer mistakes) I still agree with a few here that Lewis will probably go at the end of the year.

Button has […]

I’ve read all the comments, and agreed and disagreed with many of the points. Here’s my take on things…

I believe that McLaren are fed up with Lewis. It’s been said here, elsewhere and for a long time that […]

precisely my thinking. This is why we have rules and regulations, and all teams and drivers agree to abide by them at the beginning of the year. Also pointless to say “Hamilton could have had more” or “Driver X […]

Well, this is the first race I managed to watch at home here up on Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, since the 3G has been installed, and I avoid the $90 a month DSTV charges to watch stuff like this and the football, and […]

because 7m to 20m is triple… it’s been explained perfectly. If there is an error its in saying the cost will INCREASE by 300%, when it will actually go up TO 300%, but as Keith is quoting somebody else, it’s […]

I think he was saying it’s the other way round, and all the tracks you mention are the other way round: straights leading to hairpins. If tracks are run in reverse, then we’d have hairpins leading onto straights…

Arguably a different kind of pressure… his long term girlfriend is Japanese, and he often says Suzuka is like a second home race for him. He has LOTS of supporters in Japan, more than most drivers.

that’s right! nobody did… FOM left them out of the coverage completely

yeah i remember seeing all 10 teams qualify within 2s of each other, brawn/button at the front and force india/sutil at the back… it was like that all season, and force india even got a pole that year in spa!! […]

fair point, duly taken

Slightly oof topic, but seriously PM, chill out man, I think most people here are discussing their opinions, and I agree with points on both sides of each debate. I rarely post on here because I like reading […]

I live in Tanzania, and already it’s difficult to watch races, this is just going to make it far, far, far more difficult. £30 for a Tanzanian is half a month’s wages. Now I know F1 isn’t designed to be accessible […]

THE FERRARI NOSE IS HORRIBLE!!

ok, i said it, moving on…

Yep, I believe this is the year for Button. As a long standing button fan (and fellow westcountryman myself) I firmly believe he will be matching Hamilton this year, and if McLaren can produce the goods, then this […]
