@poul
True but who said there was? What I mean is the fastest lap in the race is run on low fuel levels so the times shouldn’t be that much off those in qualifying. The 7% difference shows pretty well how much […]

@poul The reason Pirelli haven’t changed their tires until now is because Pirelli by their own admission didn’t get them right, they aimed for 2-3 stops and got 4 and we have seen a few delaminations plus Alonso […]

@poul the intention was that DRS was supposed to be a stop-gap for major changes to the 2014 rules which would reduce overall downforce levels, but sadly the FIA have decided for us that we like DRS and that we […]

If you want you can now order it according to points / start – just click at the title of the column @poul, Button ends up in 27th, one behind Massa. Its possible he would drop further down with the points per […]

@poul – indeed: he’s been much better this year so far though (it is early days though) and Vettel’s been far enough ahead in qualifying anyway. ;)

@poul – fair enough! I just hope Grosjean isn’t the deciding factor! ;)

@poul + 1 a rare piece with a bunch of refreshing observations – but sadly for most people things ARE what they seem. artificial team orders are a kinda taboo subject most people view it in the same light as […]

@poul

The reason we have team open orders is because they are absolutely impossible to police

That’s what those who opposed the team orders ban would like to have us believe, but it isn’t the case.

During […]

@poul were points possible had he pitted though? he would have been at the back…and a long way behind even the guy running in 21st, a few laps later he would have had to pit again for slicks…im really not sure […]

@poul

I don’t really belive Piquet has ever tried to destroy’s senna’s image. But I do understand how he could be frustrated that Senna is rated so high, whereas he is not, even though his achievments speak […]

@poul He was alluding to how much things have changed since… ‘F1 moves in strange ways’. He used to get a lot of stick, but now he’s a favourite in the media.

@poul, I come to the exact opposite conclusion from your observations.

@poul No. Their choices will always affect the outcome but what they’re doing now is minimising the amount of variables their tyres will impose.

@poul

There are some other key elements (which don’t know about) that aided Hamilton’s decision to leave McLaren. Since the posting of telemetry data on twitter and extended discussions on the contract, his […]

@poul so if he acts with class and dignity and doesn’t lash out at the team, it’s his fault because he’s not helping them realize their screw-ups? the guy really can’t catch a break…geez.

@poul Yeah I’d like to do something like that. Frankly the whole reviews section needs an overhaul. As @bascb points out a quick why to go through reviews is to look at the category:

F1 reviews

But I would […]

There’s a tab named reviews under the Info tab in the menue @poul! Keith already thought about that. And I guess Keith will include some in his best reads in a “what to get for christmas” feature we are all […]

@poul

I have regularly complained about F1 going to China and several other countries too. I think that the FIA/FOM willingness to support corrupt dictators and tyrannical regimes reflects very badly on the […]

Do you even realize how rapidly the UAE have moved from a traditional muslim country to a modern, multimational, human rights protected country of freedom and speech, religion and opinion?
Really @poul? […]

@poul

I base my comment on my experiences from visiting the country and from the many reports of human rights abuses that are easily available to anyone with an internet connection.
