F1 Fanatic

@joshua-mesh

I agree with you. I have always maintained that when the top guys go head to head, passing is not as easy or fake as people make out to be. The pursuing driver needs to get it absolutely right. We […]

I dont say this often enough, but it was a masterclass of a drive from Vettel, albeit he had the few hairy moments.

Thoroughly deserves driver of the weekend.

The rest need to catch up quickly. The win was […]

Loved Kimi’s forth right views. The youngsters really need to be reigned in, there is a total lack of respect.

We’ve seen the likes of Button, Webber, Kimi and Alonso race hard against each other…but they […]

I find this hard to believe. Formula One is a professional sport with many highly paid individuals who are very anal about rules and regs…so if Merc thought for one minute that they could pull a fast one, they […]

Its amazing Andrew Benson still has a job….Beeb appears to be scrapping the bottom of the barrel with Benson, in all my years of reading his articles, I havent seen anything of note.

His story on Alonso is […]

I think VJ and his team have done well. They have been consistent and well managed. However, I am amazed how VJ’s financial escapades havent caught up with the team…if Times of India is close to being right, he […]

In 2011 Ferrari hadnt worked out how to get the best out of their tyres. In 2013, its RB and Merc that need to figure it out..its simple.

As an Engineer, you design your product to the given design […]

“Lewis Hamilton, he was with eventual winner Fernando Alonso on lap five or six in Barcelona two weeks ago and then got lapped. That’s not right.”

Well I guess Webber and everyone else forgets that in Barcelona […]

KK is a Toyota development driver..so I doubt he will be in the fray.

Takuma Sato is a Honda backed driver…but there is no chance of him coming back
The only Japanese driver who is amounting to anything in […]

Marketing would be one one of Honda’s goals here as well. The new NSX is expected to be rolled out in 2015. The original NSX had F1 DNA at its core, and was marketed accordingly. Although the NSX brand speaks for […]

Enough with the bloody tyres already! Everywhere you turn its about tyres and how the whole Red Bull management hierarchy doesnt like them!

There is a very good article on Austosport by Jonathan Noble, if you […]

@david-a

Danny boy has the upper hand because Helmut Marko is propping it up! It not difficult to tell that Ricciardo is anotehr one of Marko’s blue eyed boys. I think JEV has been very good, he seems to keep […]

@wsrgo

I agree with you. Alonso was pretty aggressive and he didn’t do to badly.

The best drivers adapt to conditions, drive on the limit but within the limit. This is easier said than done if you machinery […]

The Webber – Alonso interview was nice. Good to see that there are relationships off track

Great article on F1 confidential…my conclusion is in agreement with the author. F1 is arrogant, it doesnt make an effort to reach out to businesses or the fans.

I have a tough time defending F1, as majority […]

Great COTD! Well said.

I wonder why a rich Russian or Sheikh isnt interested in owning an F1 team? I wouldnt consider Marussia to be Roman Abramovich rich and I am aware that a number of Sheikhs are share […]

@einariliyev

Agree with most of your comments. The guys racing today are much more closely matched compared to yesteryear. The guys coming up through the ranks are definitely more well prepared for F1 nowadays. […]

Apart from the X-Wing..the late 90s cars looked amazing.

Vettel for Pole…if Webber digs deep it could very well be a front row lock out for the bulls.

Ferrari or Lotus to win the race!

Could Kobayashi have done better at Mclaren? Possibly, but there is no way to know. I think Kobayashi was quite unlucky last year, he could have better results. All the podium that Perez scored, he qualified […]
