F1 Fanatic

@raymondu999
Of course! Alonso is really just an average driver. F1 is really just building Alonso as a racing god to gain popularity and viewers in Spain! Button and Hamilton became champions in two consecutive […]

@raymondu999
Indeed you are right.

At Barcelona the driver can’t make much of a difference, if any at all. I followed the live timing; throughout the race Alonso was constantly quicker than Lotus, Mclaren […]

Thankyou for a very good response @raymondu999 i now see why my solution wouldn’t work and that flat spot is insane !.

Perhaps there could be a way to make the air a car leaves behind, now this might seem a bit […]

@raymondu999

When someone would tie certain drivers; such as when you tied Alonso and Vettel at #1, I simply gave both of them 25 points. When someone tied Button and Raikkonen for #4, I gave both of them 12 […]

@raymondu999 Let’s take Fixy’s last example and expand on that.

Driver A: 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 9 1 9
Driver B: 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 9 1 9 1

This is in a 19-race season, which is what […]

@raymondu999 – Positions aren’t everything, actually. Some drivers were screwed over by unluckiness, either due to their pit crew or due to other mechanical failures.

A simple 1-10 rating system for every race […]

@raymondu999 Theoretically, you can have a situation where the two leading drivers have 5 wins, 5 seconds, 5 thirds, and 4 fourths – except that they did it in a different order to each other. The remaining 9 […]

@journeyer, @raymondu999, 2008 Brazil and 2007 pit lane entry have been mentioned!

@raymondu999 Weird. Basically the same as Silverstone 2011, in that case. I think they came into F1 and tried to be popular, but over the years, they’ve really lost me as a fan.

@raymondu999 I didn’t even remember that, but I’ve just checked YouTube, and you’re right, although I can only find one. Why was Mark faster? Again, it annoys me when RBR have little digs at Ferrari about team […]

@raymondu999 I think you might be refering to France 2004 where Schumacher beat Alonso with the four stop strategy.

@raymondu999 – Yes. Ricciardo replaced the cucumber and Senna replaced Heidfeld. Karun also replaced Trulli for a race, whilst the cucumber also replaced Liuzzi for his home race.

@raymondu999 I can see what you’re saying, enigma and I were talking about a specific situation where there’s a queue of traffic coming in and you’d lose out heavily due to safe release rules. In a one vs one […]

@raymondu999

He ran wide at turn 1 and the time he set was annulled.

Great race so far. Two Mercedes and British drivers fighting for the lead.

@raymondu999 Thanks for the effort, but that’s not what I’m asking at all. I’m asking why there’s only two or three tracks that have the pit order of Melbourne.

It makes more sense to have it that way. The […]

@raymondu999

Mercedes was only 2 tenths off though… It’s BMW that is a second off.

Well, because Werner completely blew his lap. Q4 is not really what I was looking at when I talked about the balance of […]
