F1 Fanatic

@klaas I like to think I could find more interesting things to talk to him about! He said so in an interview a few years ago.

@klaas rather!

@klaas

As I mentioned above, there was no way they could execute the strategies since they were flawed from the beginning. They only could work if the other cars went for another pit-stop which never […]

@klaas – The technical failure MW suffered are dwarfed by Vettel’s, and didn’t even cost him anything. The strategy issue you cite cropped up due to a lack of driver performance, which forced a gamble. Whether the […]

@klaas no you haven’t really: it was still referring to the tyre criticisms and hence everything Ferrari has said in retaliation so I still don’t like it. 10 stops in that situation though is not a bad thing, 4 […]

@klaas I interpret anything to do with neural networks as commenting on intelligence ;)

It probably is, but then again he was pushing the tyres and not crawling around at a snails pace in a racing situation!

@klaas I’m sorry, so you support the fact they have said essentially F1 fans lack brain cells? That tweet also was just a crude, senseless joke as the two situations bear almost no comparison.

In actual fact, […]

@klaas no, they should give up on writing stupid tweets that just make themselves look like “Richard Hammond winners”! And stop calling other F1 fans stupid.

@klaas –
For me, you’re fishing for excuses when you blame the team for Webber losing the championship and citing these so-called “troubled races”.

In Abu Dhabi, yes, Webber could have won the title, but his […]

@klaas

No really, leaving the b-as apart, the main reason Alonso or Webber lost that championship was due to that poor strategy their respective teams chose for tham and it had nothing to do with driving.

As […]

@klaas I don’t believe the intention is to make everyone besides Ferrari fans hate them: that’s what they’re doing.

@klaas – Do you really believe Webber would have won Brazil? Why ignore his inability to qualify better than any of the other frontrunners (except Massa) in Abu Dhabi in the first place?

@klaas

No really, leaving the bias apart, the main reason Alonso or Webber lost that championship was due to that poor strategy their respective teams chose for tham and it had nothing to do with driving.

As […]

@klaas sorry, but it has never been this amount of “save tyres”, and it doesn´t made sense in sport thats it´s legendary for dirvers “fighting” on the track not to be able to do so.

@klaas Drivers in 4 stops were saving tyres. And they were saving tyres since the start of the race. So, we hace 66 laps of “sunday driving” in the Barcelona sun.

So you didn´t feel robed to see if Vettel […]

@klaas I’ve misread it – I interpreted it as you were saying that was the situation in 2012 also – excuse my incompetence!

Sweet spot for tires. Aren’t the tires included in the list of factors that are […]

@klaas we didn’t have any 4 stop races if I recall correctly last season, and the ones in 2011 were excusable because Pirelli didn’t have any data for the tracks as they were new to them obviously. Besides, in […]

@klaas I’ve discussed that in an earlier comment.

About the fan complaints though, that is because F1′s changes are far too polarised: there is plenty of middle ground, like 1/2 stop races and a DRS which […]

@klaas

If you think that’s busy try saying fast: Pepsi Max Crew Ford Performance Racing.

That’s got to be a difficult one to subtly drop into a PR speech!

I think they may have to change from Renault, but I […]

@klaas lol
