F1 Fanatic

Given that 80% of the road-going BMWs are having one, two or three turbochargers fitted on a downsized engine, I’d assume that joining F1 would make lots of sense.
Besides, there’s an M division to compete with […]

@keithcollantine – Thanks for the link, the articles talk about wet tires alone.
Again, we hit the problem of how to read the rules – as the Devil would read the Bible or straightforward. If it’s the latter, […]

The situation is ridiculous – it is a jump into the unknown, spoiling the current status, mocking at the efforts made by large number of people, potentially changing the future champion, and last but not least, […]

Two additions:
1. I’m not 100% sure, but I guess the latest upgrade on the CFD front allows them to reduce the time for simulation by using already computed/solved equations on certain part of the model, while […]

In F1 world there’s no such term as “team player”, be assured. This is a cruel world and only the mean people win. The nice guys don’t survive.

As for JS – that’s his opinion and he is apparently welcome to […]

Formula 1 must quickly start to lose some of its elite status if they want fans to continue to visit circuits – one of my main criticism for years regarding this side of the sport.

If you visit Le Mans once, […]

4,000 kids die from starvation every day – that’s cause I had donated and will do again. Racing drivers – sorry guys, I like you, but I others need our help more than you.

Indeed, nice article.
What’s really nice about this front wing is its seamless integration – while it is evolutionary, it helped Mclaren to stay on top of the time sheets.

Next I very much value the fact […]

Tough words, but this is how it works – he [CH] will love to have one motivated opponent less.

Massa’s obvious problem is his mentality – he was under pressure and cracked, and as soon as the contract was […]

Given the amount of money HRT had they were not that bad. I’ve met team members eating sandwiches on the street, they travel in normal passengers class and sleep in two star hotels – absolutely normal people. […]

Drivers complain everytime something happens

Indeed, I think it was Derek Daly who said: “You can’t believe how kiddish these guys can be, like: He pushed me off the track, He overtook me outside the track, he […]

Even if they get the support from the government, they need to make sure to educate the local people and the rest of the world that there is, actually, a race in Turkey.
It’s a beautiful, colorful different […]

Depends on the definition of “people” – sometimes you wish to label “people” only the personas around you.

DRS is an easy fix | patch to the growing austerity of the teams, hence the frozen innovations, […]

I know that Scuderia fans may disagree with me, but such excuses are floating around for the last two years.
When you have a problem like that, which is totally crippling your championship ambitions, you either […]

@raymondu999 – True, I happen to be co-host on the TV sometimes, but that doesn’t mean I’m always right.
Tobi from AMuS, for example, is at almost every race – and being in the paddock makes difference, anyone […]

There’s something wrong in this whole story … Ferrari are silent about it, Martin W. is totally unaware, yet AMuS is respectable source.

No penalties for gearbox change.
1. Because there’s no need to ruin the efforts of entire team just because of one component.
2. Because if there’s a general problem with the gearboxes it should be fixed from […]

@andrewtanner Indeed. Confirmed from the kitchen :) There’s a global TV feed you receive and just transmit through your frequencies.

For me, it was 9, because I was in the studio of the local national TV, […]
