    Mopatop commented on the post, McLaren admits it “squandered” chance for titles 6 months ago

    I don’t think you can say with fairness that Ferrari have faster than McLaren at any point this season.

    Well they have to show highlights, and they have to be edited, and that takes time. What’s the problem here?

    I hope you’re right but I think you’re wrong.

    It doesn’t look like it.

    Is it just me or does the “How Alonso and Vettel could have beaten Hamilton in Canada (BBC)” link go to a youtube video?

    Sorry :-)

    I’d imagine it’s got a lot more to do with Jake being unavailable.

    Mopatop commented on the post, Horner hints at Webber’s Red Bull future 12 months ago

    I’ve been watching the races on Sky and build-up on BBC all year. Ben Edwards, while not quite as bad as Legard, can’t hold a candle to Croft+Brundle. However during the week I always watch the Sky pre and post […]

    Mopatop commented on the post, Hamilton unhappy with poor Monaco showing 12 months ago

    Because electronics fail. Didn’t Vettel lose radio comms at Silverstone last year? Pitboards are necessary.

    Mopatop commented on the post, Drivers will ‘push hard from start to finish’ in Monaco – Pirelli 1 year ago

    Some comments from Ted on the wear distribution differences between this and last year’s tyres seem to make me think that it could not be the same story this year.

    Vague comment is vague.

    No I believe every team is contractually obliged to attend every race

    Mopatop commented on the post, Liuzzi: “Of course I miss Formula One” 1 year, 1 month ago

    Apart from that if My B broke his end of the deal, he would have to pay out the termination fees agreed in the contract. He has to wait for Bahrain to pull itself out.

    Mopatop commented on the post, Hill: Racing in Bahrain ‘Could create more problems than it solves’ 1 year, 1 month ago

    If you read the article is position is quiet clear:

    “Promoting the race as ‘Uniting Bahrain’, whilst a laudable ambition, might be elevating F1 beyond even its own prodigious powers. I’m just saying we have to […]

    Mopatop commented on the post, Karthikeyan hits back at “crybaby” Vettel 1 year, 1 month ago

    I agree. From behind it looks 50/50 but from the front it’s 100% Karthikeyan. He tried to go for the slipstream too soon, simple as.

    Mopatop commented on the post, McLaren will rely on FIA to judge Mercedes’ wing 1 year, 2 months ago

    Sky’s description of the F2012′s camber problem smells like rubbish to me. All the cars run a very high front camber all for the same reason. Ferrari’s front camber didn’t strike me as being excessive at any […]

    Mopatop commented on the post, Ecclestone wants customer cars for new teams 1 year, 2 months ago

    Keith, your “On This Day” doesn’t cite a year except in the YouTube video title which will be unavailable on non-flash (mobile) browsers. I think as Trulli, Schumacher and Gascoyne have raced together in a […]

    Mopatop commented on the post, Williams to supply hybrid system for Audi Le Mans car 1 year, 2 months ago

    Surprised to see two queries about this, the solution is quite obvious. Gyroscopes only resist rotation through two axis, the axis that it spins around doesn’t experience the gyroscopic effect at all.

    The […]

    Mopatop commented on the post, Williams says Parr is his “natural successor” 1 year, 2 months ago

    “However, I can’t imagine a scenario whereby a driver worth his salt and without a contract would turn down the Scuderia if it came a-knockin’ at the door.”

    Perhaps if that driver wanted to be allowed to win some races?

    Very clever ploy by Sky there

    Mopatop commented on the post, Tost: Buemi and Alguersuari lacked the “right stuff” 1 year, 3 months ago

    Keith I think this is significant – this reads like the F1 will only be broadcast on Sky Sports F1, which means no HD for Virgin Media customers. Do you have any more insight on this? If that is indeed the case […]

    Mopatop commented on the post, Pirelli reveal softer compounds and new tyre colours for 2012 1 year, 4 months ago

    Only aero grip has that problem due to the “dirty air” effect. This increases mechanical grip which doesn’t affect overtaking.
