    +1, not that anyone didn’t see this coming anyway.

    Eleanore commented on the post, Which drivers will say farewell to F1 after Brazil? 5 months, 3 weeks ago

    @vettel1 Maybe so, maybe not. I still see his approaches even to fairly simple corners as late and quite clumsy on the apex (he tends to turn in late and sharply, which is good for warming tires in quali, not so […]

    Eleanore commented on the post, Which drivers will say farewell to F1 after Brazil? 5 months, 3 weeks ago

    You’re kidding, right? I’m no great fan of Vettel, but he’s at least a clean driver. Maldonado may be quick over a single lap, but from what I’ve seen this season, he’s still a clumsy racer.

    Eleanore commented on the post, Williams aim to take seventh off Force India 6 months ago

    I agree. What I think has been great to watch from him this year is his progress in terms of race performance. Last year, he was quick most of the time in qualifying (the tires seemed to suit him better), but his […]

    @dot_com That’s what makes it so sad and yet hilarious. They made this fuss over bringing in someone to coach more speed into them, and yet all they’ve done since is get slower and slower…

    I was sure it was […]

    Eleanore commented on the post, 2012 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix result 6 months, 2 weeks ago

    @tony031r Quali is definitely his weakest area, no one denies that. He just seems to be way more sensitive to setup and the tire temperatures over the single flying lap (a bit like Button at times) than his […]

    Eleanore commented on the post, 2012 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix result 6 months, 2 weeks ago

    I would love to have seen how much higher Senna might have finished were Williams not atrocious in the pits. 6.3 second stop! I’m pretty sure they’ve consistently been the slowest of the midfield in the pits, […]

    Eleanore commented on the post, Hamilton quickest as brake problem delays Vettel 6 months, 2 weeks ago

    This is why I was just rolling my eyes, listening to the BBC team trying to ramp up tension over “will Vettel get out there or won’t he?!”. At this point in the season, with the Red Bull where it is, I don’t see […]

    Eleanore commented on the post, McLaren on top in first practice at Abu Dhabi 6 months, 2 weeks ago

    Or it’ll be just like last year, when it looked like McLaren had the pace all weekend, then Vettel got pole at the very end anyway. (Sorry, I’ve become a pessimist this late in the season.)

    Eleanore commented on the post, Hamilton: title defeat is “heartbreaking” 6 months, 2 weeks ago

    @tony031r I find the phrase “downright slow” being applied to Senna to be laughable. If he’s slow, so is his teammate, who may be quicker in qualifying, but who he usually outpaces in races (including this past […]

    Eleanore commented on the post, 2012 Indian Grand Prix fastest laps 6 months, 3 weeks ago

    Bruno is far from the only driver to not manage “error-free practice sessions”. We tend to see several drivers have a moment or two in practice (after all, isn’t that partly what it’s for?), some of them from the […]

    Eleanore commented on the post, 2012 Indian Grand Prix fastest laps 6 months, 3 weeks ago

    Exactly. If you were paying attention to live timing, he had top 5 pace basically all race long, but due to qualifying further behind, was stuck at the tail end of what became rather early the Rosberg Train. Then […]

    @chicanef1 …No? Where on earth would you get that impression from? Does one have to be related to be a fan of a driver? I’m genuinely baffled by this comment, lol.

    Same, he had some great passes today and very good pace as well.

    Whether Bernie sticks around or not is not going to improve the financial situation in the European market.

    Eleanore commented on the post, Vettel extends his advantage in second practice 6 months, 3 weeks ago

    At one point he did chop across Bruno Senna, though what the context was (i.e. whether they were both on a quick lap) I don’t recall now. Didn’t really surprise me, to be honest, Vettel tends to chop across fairly […]
