    BS commented on the post, Lotus unhappy over ‘very conservative’ tyre choices 4 days, 15 hours ago

    @mantresx First of, provided you have a broadband internet connection, there is absolutely no reason for a drop in quality. You could be streaming the same 1080p feed your digital tv box receives. The winter […]

    OmarR-Pepper commented on the post, Pirelli abandon new tyres as teams block plans 5 days, 23 hours ago

    well @mantresx the team winning for the past 3 years is currently winning (again and despite not having the car suited to the rubber on the first races). Looks again like the wrong decisions made by the other […]

    Deej92 commented on the post, Hamilton believes title win is ‘not impossible’ 6 days, 13 hours ago

    @mantresx Yeah I completely agree. They still have a lot riding on this season and I hope they can reduce the loss in prize money with effective updates. As much as the regulations are changing next year, they can […]

    celeste commented on the post, Rosberg was aware what tyres Pirelli were testing 1 week, 5 days ago

    @mantresx Well Nico Rosberg and Vettel never have been close, contrymen yes, friends no.

    @bascb well that will made more sense

    @mantresx what proof do you have that Pirelli isn’t lying?

    Max Jacobson commented on the post, Drivers ask FIA to give them a say in rule-making 2 weeks, 6 days ago

    @mantresx to be honest he has rights to look smug, he won 9 world championships in a row…
    To me without question he is the greatest driver living right now!

  • Profile picture of OmarR-Pepper

    OmarR-Pepper commented on the post, Car failure caused Massa’s second crash 3 weeks, 2 days ago

    @mantresx a “punishment” could be to organize a test for all the other teams, covering not 1, but 2 thousand km, and of course, not letting Mercedes participate. All the costs this “megatest” generates covered by […]

    celeste commented on the post, Car failure caused Massa’s second crash 3 weeks, 2 days ago

    @mantresx @omarr-pepper I don´t think Pirelli will be punished, maybe it will ruin the chances of them to renew contract, and maybe economical punishement?

    Don´t know what can they do with Mercedes… banned […]

    Valan Sammanasu commented on the post, Monaco “still a daunting place”, says Webber 4 weeks ago

    @mantresx As you said McLaren and Sauber have done no favor to themselves with their cars and this coupled with the fact that Force India has a genuinely faster car in VJM06 has put them ahead of both McLaren and […]

    OmarR-Pepper commented on the post, Extra tyres to boost practice running in Spain 1 month, 2 weeks ago

    TV commentators here in Latin America were saying…

    @mantresx they were saying it. I report only.

    Joe Papp commented on the post, Extra tyres to boost practice running in Spain 1 month, 2 weeks ago

    @mantresx – agreed. The people who are complaining that they’ll never buy Pirelli tires for their road car because of how the company has “ruined” F1, or b/c their F1 tires aren’t durable so the road tires must […]

    Mads commented on the post, Extra tyres to boost practice running in Spain 1 month, 2 weeks ago

    @mantresx
    It’s no different to how Ferrari claims that this and that on their road cars are derived from their F1 team. And most people eat that raw.
    I don’t think that it’s unlikely that a lot of people could […]

    dragoll commented on the post, F1 prize money change planned 1 month, 3 weeks ago

    @mantresx I don’t believe there is any prize money from the FIA directly to drivers, however, many drivers have performance bonuses, that they negotiate with their teams. I remember Senna had a very good package […]

    @mantresx, I thought it was March 14th. but my memory is far from infallible.

    @bascb If you don´t think he is the wrong is your right, I don´t like it and is my right too…

    @maroonjack I think @mantresx explained better that I could have

    @mike you are right, even if e has won a world […]

    Metallion commented on the post, Vettel takes second Bahrain win on disastrous day for Ferrari 1 month, 4 weeks ago

    @mantresx
    The reason that they added the second DRS zone after banning free use in qualifying, was because they wanted DRS to still be interesting and useful for the teams to set the cars up to use it […]

    Bruno commented on the post, Vettel takes second Bahrain win on disastrous day for Ferrari 1 month, 4 weeks ago

    @mantresx

    DRS alone does stop teams from spending money on aero parts just because it is easier to overtake. Those “incremental AND special upgrades” would give them benefits if DRS didn’t exist, just as much […]

  • Profile picture of Keith Collantine

    Keith Collantine commented on the post, Vettel takes second Bahrain win on disastrous day for Ferrari 1 month, 4 weeks ago

    @mantresx

    DRS also exists to stop teams spending more on race-specific aero packages

    I don’t remember that explanation ever being put forward by those in charge. And the top teams bring aero changes to every […]

    “So we’ve refused to sign certain things we could have done because we believe we shouldn’t undersell ourselves.

    Agreed with @mantresx and Mr Lopez. They’re hinting at Honeywell here, I know because I know this […]

    @mantresx

    Gerard López made the right decision not to have a title sponsor this year

    His comments read more like spin to me. They were tipped to bring Coca-Cola into the sport, but had to settle for minimal […]
