F1 Fanatic

There clearly musn’t be an age limit for the inaccurately named ‘Young Driver Test.’

It seems, partially anyway, as if it should be called the ‘rich mediocre driver who the teams throw a bone to in order to […]

Has anyone else in Australia been entertained by Fox Sports News’ hilarious prejudice against him?

After Spa they said ‘Narain Karthikeyan: unsafe at any speed’ showing his crash, and even more brilliantly, […]

Poor Narain, he’s not that bad.

He’s clearly a level below the rest of the current field, but the current field is really elite. He’d have lived perfectly well within the mid-range of any other decade I […]

Keith. You should actually write a feature (with poll) pondering what the worst race of all time is?

There’s obviously so many different criterias. The ‘worst’ of all time is very possibly Imola 94 (or Spa 60 […]

Yeah. The current Sauber is a Key masterpiece is it not?

I have a funny feeling Sauber will go backwards next year, to around 8th or 9th, while Toro Rosso jump up to potential 6th.

No. It really wasn’t.

Wasn’t special, I gave it 5.

I do feel like we’re all a bit pampered these days, due to the generally golden era we’re in, and how amazing some of the early races this year were.

Yeah we’re not getting the […]

Yeah it’s all about the result.

Not at all a classic race with much particular excitement, but first corner dramatics are always exciting (as painful as they were this time as a Webber and Alonso fan), and the […]

I agree about Nuvolari and Lauda. Even a comparatively modern driver like Damon Hill tends to remembered positively, for Suzuka 94, the 96, championship, Hungary 97, Belgium 98 etc, not for his frankly atrocious […]

Oh yeah they can certainly build a good enough car to dominate and defeat the problem, but all things equal they’ll likely struggle.

It is clear that on average, over a season, Hamilton would be able to […]

Yeah it’ll be strong overall, but they’re gonna suffer in Qualifying without a doubt.

I agree, that’s what I’d do. But there are no superstars available are there? Only Di Resta and Hulkenberg and co.

And more to the point, Perez is as close to a superstar as they’d have been able to find, and […]

So what announcement comes next, one from Michael (of retirement) or from Sauber (of his signing)?

Oh man I’m seriously starting to believe these Schumacher to Sauber rumours, which have massively intensified just now after this announcement.

It would totally make sense in many ways, think about it:

* […]

Yeah would be interesting to see Esteban in the Sauber. I’m not sure. He’s not really too ‘inexperienced’ in the sense that he’s been with Sauber for 2 years now. But I’m still not convinced. He could be good […]

Well obviously that confirms Hamilton to Mercedes, presumably replacing Schumacher.

But ironically and sadly this could be the death knell even more notably for Massa. Felipe’s 2013 chances were entirely based […]

Yeah I agree. 2003 is so special to me. It remains the start of the ‘modern era’ for me (along with 1994 going back further coz of the tragedies and it being the first year I started studying as I grew up. My […]

Yeah I agree too. I’m a Schumacher fan so know I have fundamental bias, but I’m also a cynic who doesn’t forgive his indiscretions, knows very well how murky the politics of the sport is, and always suspected […]
