    Really enjoyed that piece Kieth. A great insider’s view – gotta love Twitter!

    did you ever see this great thread about getting an old F1 Honda RA107 running?:

    McBride commented on the post, Were Red Bull & Mercedes right to use team orders? 1 month, 3 weeks ago

    I agree that it was still a team order, and I wish that there weren’t any team orders at all. At least they were discussed before the race and were focused on bringing 2 cars home safe (not the ALO MAS #1 driver type).

    McBride commented on the post, Were Red Bull & Mercedes right to use team orders? 1 month, 3 weeks ago

    I never said it was a fact. WEB said during the podium interviews that he had turned his car down and he seemed to imply that VET may not have. Obviously the telemetry would shoe it, but Red Bull would never show […]

    McBride commented on the post, Were Red Bull & Mercedes right to use team orders? 1 month, 3 weeks ago

    I’m against teams orders overall and think that they should be banned, but in this case they are in the rulebook and teams will always push to the extremes of the rules.

    I voted two different ways […]

    McBride commented on the post, Tyres “punish” Red Bull for being best – Marko 1 month, 4 weeks ago

    If it was all about downforce, then the teams could all just bolt their cars to the track and we could watch them all sit there for 2 hours. How about that for “spectacle”?!

    So I have better odds of driving an F1 car in the WDC than I do winning the UK Lottery! I’ll take that Ferrari seat if it’s still available!

    F1 Drivers to World population = 1 in 9,421,265

    McBride commented on the post, Grosjean and Kobayashi set identical fastest times in Mugello 1 year ago

    I’m curious if there would have been any benefit to McLaren getting Paffet to drive Hamilton’s gearbox (changed in China) to failure..? Probably not, but I’m kinda more curious if that’s even legal?

    Vettel absolutely amazed me in Qually, but JB really hammered the races and showed the best form of his career.

    I don’t feel that Vettel would have done as well if he wasn’t in the best Adrian Newey powered […]

    Not to mention that Button has a history of complaining about the balance of the various cars that he drives. He did amazing to keep his race under control. I have at least tripled my opinion of Button this year.

    I’m a HUGE Hamilton fan and I can’t stand Alonso, but Alonso out performed the hell out of that Ferrari. I voted Alonso.

    In case you didn’t know, trying to make some cash off of a website with another brand’s name is illegal; so that may not be the case unless someone is oblivious to the US law. It is however possible that the […]

    Not to be nitpicky but I’ve noticed a usability issue on the page. I’m viewing the site on a MacBook Air running OSX Lion and the button to log my prediction looked greyed out. Kinda like it does in some programs […]
