    HoHum commented on the post, Williams tipped for Mercedes engine deal 12 hours, 19 minutes ago

    Good old tabloids, now we get info-mercials posing as news, how low can they go?

    HoHum commented on the post, Williams tipped for Mercedes engine deal 12 hours, 30 minutes ago

    What a load of B-S from Benson, arbitrarily massaging the “statistics” and then suggesting that Jenson (easy on tyres) Button, last year, racing on the HARDEST tyre combination on the smoothest (easy on tyres) […]

    “Williams fahrt” that’s the sound I hear when I watch Indycar!

    HoHum commented on the post, Pirelli criticise “ludicrous” wait for 2014 tyre decision 13 hours, 8 minutes ago

    I would not mind multiple tyre suppliers as long as all tyres were available to all teams.
    However, since tyres are designed and built, not by the teams, but by an outside supplier I believe they should be equal […]

    +1, also; Team budget $400 million, extra engine cost (maybe) for 2014 $20 million = 5%, FOM fees $750 million, all the financial problems F1 has are caused by the massive revenue lost to the teams , paid to CVC.

    YES,YES,YES, that’s what I’m talking about baby!!!

    The harder the tyre the broader is the operating range so the difference will be less critical allowing the best balanced and driven car to corner the best.

    HoHum commented on the post, Pirelli criticise “ludicrous” wait for 2014 tyre decision 13 hours, 42 minutes ago

    GT racer, I seriously doubt that aero considerations scuppered the 18″ rims, more likely it was the lack of shock absorbsion by the lower profile tyre that would have required a complete re-design and […]

    HoHum commented on the post, Vettel attacks Pirelli over safety of tyres 1 day, 15 hours ago

    @bascb, please tell me McLaren have a deal with Yokohama, Lotus with Michelin, Caterham with Dunlop etc.etc. then we may see some real racing.

    HoHum commented on the post, Spanish Grand Prix gets lowest rating of 2013 so far 2 days, 11 hours ago

    @spawinte, you want to see real racing watch MotoGP, no pit stops-no problem just great wheel to wheel racing, like F1 used to be a long time ago, of course you have to be older to have seen it and know that pit […]

    HoHum commented on the post, BMW denies Ecclestone’s comeback claim 3 days, 12 hours ago

    Bernie knows where all the skeletons are buried so what Bernie wants Bernie gets, when it succeeds it was his idea, when it fails it was the FIA.

    HoHum commented on the post, BMW denies Ecclestone’s comeback claim 3 days, 12 hours ago

    F1′s money problems stem from Bernie siphoning off 50% of revenue.

    HoHum commented on the post, BMW denies Ecclestone’s comeback claim 3 days, 12 hours ago

    I agree, but I think it could be possible for a specialist to manufacture the basic monocoqe safety cell which teams could buy to fit out with suspension, powertrain and aero bits.

    Stationary Orbit Satellites are what brings F1 to a screen near us, Bernie is the guy that makes it to expensive to air without fees or massive commercial interuption.

    @geemac, by “always” you mean since F1 discovered downforce.

    HoHum commented on the post, Massa says Ferrari still need to improve in qualifying 6 days ago

    But they can’t do both on these tyres, if they get up to temperature quickly enough for pole position they overheat after several (fast) laps, this is Mercedes and to a slightly lesser degree RBRs problem, Jenson […]

    Between Kimi and Nando there are a lot of fans who will support anything that keeps Ferarri and Lotus on the podium.

    +1. but give me an even earlier era, Mansell, Senna, Prost, Stewart, Brabham, Clark, all entertained without pit-stop passes or any strategy other than get to the front and stay there.

    Apart from my preference for ZERO pit stops, we are in total agreement, well said Dizzy.

    @john-h, +1 indeed, the lights are on in the FIA but is anyone there?
