    Kodongo commented on the post, Alonso splits Red Bulls in close session 2 weeks ago

    Not really, he must not have been able to find a clear space to register a fast lap. The long run that Grosjean did at the end of the session augurs well for him and Kimi come Sunday.

    Kodongo commented on the post, Alonso splits Red Bulls in close session 2 weeks ago

    Thank God that it didn’t give way midway through the last corner or during turn 3; it could’ve been a lot uglier. It is just fortunate that the tyre failures of Paul, Felipe and Lewis have all occurred on […]

    The San Antonio Spurs were fined $250,000 for resting three of their starting five players in a televised match against the Miami Heat (think Man U-Chelsea stature in football […]

    Kodongo commented on the post, Vettel praises Russian Grand Prix venue 1 month ago

    FLIG, I loved these battles as well but these were all done on tyres which were geared for excellence. The Pirellis are designed to fail and don’t support such driving any more. You can’t fight like you used to as […]

    Agree, it was very poor. I was waiting to see the conclusion to Webber-Hamilton-Pérez and all we saw was a mostly empty pit straight.

    Kodongo commented on the post, Raikkonen goes Motocross riding during F1 break 1 month, 2 weeks ago

    I agree. This tragic device seems to be filtering down the European motorsports.

    DTM has no need of it either; their racing is usually very exciting and filled with overtakes.

    Apropos of these changes, shouldn’t the Ferrari drivers be ahead of the McLaren ones on the links at the bottom of the page? Also, the Kimster should be ahead of the Mercedes drivers. The constructors also need to […]

    and Button is now the grid’s eldest driver, aged 33 years and 66 days yesterday.

    Button has contested the most grands prix, Keith, but Mark Webber is the oldest having been born on 27 August 1976. He is currently 36.

    McLaren MP4-27 @ 2012 US Grand Prix

    This is as close as we are going to get to Verizon sponsorship on a McLaren. But as Snobeck said, they are part of the same group so it won’t happen.

    Amazing how despite the errors of which you speak in 2007 and 2010, in both of those years he managed to defeat the reigning world champion (Fernando Alonso and Jenson Button).

    But don’t let logic get in the […]

    Kodongo commented on the post, Two DRS zones for every track bar Monaco and Suzuka in 2013 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    That straight is the final straight I think. The pit straight refers to the straight adjacent to the actual location of the pit crews and equipment. The easiest way to think of it is: wherever the start-finish […]

    Kodongo commented on the post, Two DRS zones for every track bar Monaco and Suzuka in 2013 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    I think the point THOMF1s was trying to make is that of the three variables (KERS, DRS, and bubblegum tyres) which were introduced, Pirelli’s have enabled overtaking much more than the other two tools.

    Kodongo commented on the post, Which team has the best driver line-up for 2013? 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    I am not implying that they all made their name at McLaren but rather the amount of talent they allowed to let go.

    All of these people left McLaren at the peak of their powers. Perhaps if McLaren were a little […]

    Kodongo commented on the post, Which team has the best driver line-up for 2013? 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    Lewis and Nico are both fresh off beating a world champion team mate and they have each had three seasons defeating world champions:

    Lewis Hamilton: 2007 = Alonso*, 2010 = Button*, 2012 = Button
    Nico Rosberg: […]

    Out of the two above technologies, definitely ‘UltraHD’ will be more prominent in F1. It possesses no downsides to ’1080p HD’ apart from extra bandwidth required and most importantly it is a passive technology. 3D […]
