F1 Fanatic

I knew you were going to mention 2003, as much as I love that era I’m not a fan of the tyre dichotomy nor the actual capacity of cars running in close proximity.

Racing wise the best year of the last decade and a half must be 2009. 2010 had a great fight for the title but all was seen in the scoreboard or in mechanical failures that’s drama and gimmicks in my opinion, […]

I agree. I think the worst part of the situation is that some teams used their limited resources to make the most of the tyre and just because the big outside investors in F1 are not very pleased, FIA is going […]

Caterham made a gigantic step forward in f1 terms. Their new upgrade made all those seemingly superfluous parts work reasonably well. Caterham resurgence was not in my book but they are set to beat Marussia, even […]

Agreed, but apparently the consequences are much more important performance wise, which is perhaps not ideal.

I agree alonso and Ferrari have had the quickest car in all races but bahrain and malaysia both races where we couldn’t assess anything about the pairing. I wouldn’t say that the Ferrari is the quickest car but […]

I would if I had money. Unfortunately this must be a sign of the teams difficult economic situation.

you’re right. Pretty much useless anyway with such high degradation and relative pace between cars. Finally, no one mentioned how good the race looked for 10 laps, brilliant to say the least longest train I’ve […]

It’s the balance that’s hard to achieve, and Pirelli is certainly the only manufacturer that has ever tried to make quick but frail tyres.

I admire Paul, he’s very good at what he does.

and is picking up another driver an infringement? I believe that must have been the situation mentioned by the FIA.

Let’s hope that with both cars at the top Mercedes can capitalize on a first victory of the season, to be it would benefit from a similar situation to China 2012 when Michael shielded Rosberg very well, honestly […]

Allison to Williams? If that is true it must mean that Claire Williams has changed the Williams culture in just a couple of months at lead. Williams aren’t going to overpay someone to design their cars but most of […]

yesterday the Kimi news about his future and now Allison leaves, well I can only say that Lotus are just gone, it was good for a while though.

Agreed, he should have chosen another excuses. Like for instances arguing that the full transcript isn’t broadcasted or that people may get things out of context because they can’t understand how much drivers can […]

The Angola guy? He is rubbish as it was in previous years.

I think he meant that with the extra set of tyres, everyone will gain from it, as simple as that.

@vettel1

I think if anybody other than Seb had won it after Alonso won in a very similar fashion the previous week it would’ve been very hypocritical indeed.

Vettel won… nothing wrong there.

@nackavich let’s hope that the STR have more to come, in the end the spanish gp is not that different from china, kind of…

I can’t remember any occasion where the DotW poll was misjudged.
