F1 Fanatic

There’s only one man to be blamed for that crash.

Mark Webber

“I told you shrinking the Mercedes would cause a significant improvement in its tyre wear”

I’m not sure Raikkonen should be that aggrieved about the Perez incident – I think if anyone was to blame, it was Kimi for closing the door way too late.

If you watch Perez’s onboard you can see the Mercedes […]

…such tests would be conditional upon every team being given the same opportunity to test in order to ensure full sporting equity

Hmm…if the FIA wanted every team to have the same opportunity to test […]

I can’t support this article enough. One of the great things about watching sport is witnessing the human drama and emotions of the contest. Due to the nature of F1, it’s obviously more difficult to convey this to […]

Its also in the regulations now that teams must make all team radio available to the tv broadcasters however none of the tv broadcasters have bothered to make use of this. Am a bit surprised that sky didn’t jump […]

errr……

Its a miracle kimi could finish the races despite the balance was damn bad

Yes a miracle that he managed to finish that race. The fact that Grosjean finished too and finished ahead of him must have […]

I’d have to disagree with Alonso on this one. Yes Kimi does lead the championship so you could say that alone shows he’s driven the best. But I think Kimi’s only faultless performance was in Australia. He was […]

Thanks Keith. That’s my first ever caption competition win to go with my one COTD!

I’d like to pretend it was but it was just a typo!

“Helmet Marko has accepted your friend request”

I for one think this site is improved by having comment articles like this to supplement the strictly-factual reporting of race results etc.

As your point about speculation, I remember reading a number of […]

Great article Keith. I just wish we got to hear more of the team radio on the main FOM feed during the race. Alternatively it’d be great if FOM could offer a website or app where you could choose the team/driver […]

I think you have a point. As the vitriol was being aimed at Vettel after the race, I couldn’t help wondering how the media and fans would perceive it if the roles had been reversed and Webber had been the one […]

To be fair to Chilton, he had his front wing clipped by Van Der Garde and had to pit to have that replaced. That put him further back then he otherwise would’ve been and meant he started to get lapped earlier. […]

Perhaps next year they’ll come to the first race with only three wheels on the car so there’s even more development potential for them to exploit throughout the year?
