F1 Fanatic

@leucocrystal I knew there was another driver this happened to more recently – it was Karthikeyan last year:

HRT: Karthikeyan suffers “unbearable pain” in race

@leucocrystal – I am a fan of Vettel yet I concede that originally he too wasn’t very good in traffic. With practice though he has managed to improve his race craft vastly and is now making impressive, clean […]

@leucocrystal – how can those pit stops possibly still be slow, despite the invaluable input from Michael Johnson and crew! ;)

Senna drove a great race in Abu Dhabi, I thought. When I saw him spinning on the […]

@leucocrystal: Between his team mate and Koba, in 6th, I think.

I doubt he would have had the pace to beat Maldonado. And as much as Williams botched up his race, I can’t help but put some of the blame on […]

@leucocrystal I told you..no offence meant. If someone asked me whether I was an F1 driver’s sibling, I would’ve been flattered.

@leucocrystal – I guess what Bottas was actually trying to say is that he would want more time in that car…racing. Something along those lines. :)

Jokes aside, young drivers DO need more testing and more time […]

@leucocrystal, I’ll bet that none of the test drivers ever felt that they had enough track time.

@leucocrystal – I’d forgotten about the Silverstone pass. He has had some very good drives this year – quali seems to be letting him down, and the rest of the weekend suffers as a result. Where do you think he’ll […]

@leucocrystal i dont think mallya’s financial troubles are gonna affect the team..their co-owners Sahara is a wealthy company..and vijay’s liquor business is still in profit.

I wonder @leucocrystal whether Ferrari might have anything to do with it, as a couple of weeks ago some people were saying some kind of deal between Hulk and them had already been inked, but then they decided to […]

@leucocrystal I agree. Having a truck bed sticking into the pitlane at head height seems like appalling mismanagement.

@leucocrystal
True.
Maybe forcing them to start from the pitlane unless they can be moved fully, or maybe a minimum of 80 percent (i.e 8 places in this case) back on the grid. Because as it is right now, then […]

@leucocrystal
Thank you! You’re right, I named Schumacher vs Senna as an example, but earlier I was watching a Hamilton vs Alonso video and found the same kind of bickering. I’ve found some of these fans in […]

@leucocrystal Williams have now said a loose wiring loom was to blame:

To confirm, Bruno’s burns were due to a wiring loom seal coming loose in the seat allowing heat from back of car to escape-not KERS […]

@leucocrystal Singapore’s the longest race of the year and a very hot one. It’s also particularly bumpy circuit. So it may simply be a combination of friction from the track and ever-rising internal temperatures […]

cheers, happy (belated) birthday @leucocrystal

@leucocrystal

;)
I really think in Hamilton’s case its matter of: “I wear what my gf tells me”

I think I tend to be a tad more critical of it even, but I fully agree with you that the placement should be different in many cases @leucocrystal to make more sense and really do what it was supposed to do – i.e. […]

Still a great effort in putting together that relatively big post by phone @leucocrystal! And very much to the point.

Thanks for writing the comment @leucocrystal!
