F1 Fanatic

From Le Mans comes the news today that Lotus LMP2 might not make to the race because some essential items from the team have been seized due to the failure in meeting some conditions on the contracts with a […]

I am pretty sure none have a positive balance (if you count out state subventions) and the best of them run at about break-even level.

So you would change artificially making stops from the tyres going off for having a stop to refuel? I really fail to see the added value of that @nemo87.
Drivers will still be told to hold position, to slow or to […]

Lotus mentioned that they went from the data supplied by Pirelli before september 1st last year @hohum, I do not think its just luck, but rather making the right choices (you could say that is luck, but then being […]

Only Murray does not have US health insurance, so he will be turned down by all and every hospital Harper. It might be amongst the countries that have the best facilities, but its incredibly expensive.
For […]

What you say there does not make any sense at all @vettel1. The car is built for this year and to optimize the car for one of the things that will be stable during the season can be a viable strategy. Lets not […]

I think I agree with that.

That is much the same as saying Brawn should not have relied on a diffusor interpretation not everyone had @vettel1. Or saying Red Bull was wrong to assume that focusing on outright downforce would be good, or […]

Fully agree, its a shame the FIA made rules to keep people from celebrating.

I would say Ron Dennis is not universally loved (nor is Ross Brawn really) either, so Horner is in pretty good company there @john-h!

Personally I am not too sure its the right way to hand these kind of things […]

I think that will be part of it, yes. Keith has mentioned a couple of times that he does not like to make the “what happened” part of the roundup fixed on deaths (people went as far as to complain about not […]

(with regards to Sir Stirling’s notorious remarks on women in motorsport):

“Lewis, m’boy, I’ve always believed that racing is a real man’s sport- you see, racing isn’t for sissies or women. Yet somehow I’ve […]

@hohum

sometimes you cant please any of the people.

I think you just found Pirelli’s problem!

The best night of the year is coming!

Funny that @kimrogue and @matt90, from the pictures in the article posted about it above, and the link @our_nige posted, it seems that in fact Bolt WAS driving an F1 car (be it a modified one)!

I was going well until the moment I pressed Enter by mistake… only had answered half the questions, I think, and got 10. So for me it is 10/10 rather than 10/20…

As @electrolite mentions, its good to hear someone in F1 actually mention that they think they can put a fight to the faraway championship leader and push to do so. Its exactly what was good to see with Alonso in […]

There’s a big difference between talking about the tyres not being the best thing for the sport, and pushing the line that they are actually dangerous. Dangerous tyres is something a tyre manufacturer cannot […]
