    SamC commented on the post, Vettel’s Valencia pace worries Ferrari 10 months, 4 weeks ago

    I’m kind of curious why I have seen no mention anywhere of a potential problem for Alonso for stopping on the track at the end, it makes Hamiltons complete grid penalty look very very harsh, I know Hamiltons was […]

    SamC commented on the post, The 2012 rules changes at a glance 1 year, 2 months ago

    is there actually space to line up all the cars in most of the pit lanes?
    and there would also be a major engine overheating problem for cars that could be up to 90+ seconds behind the leader.
    Let alone the […]

    the side view really makes it look like someone too heavy’s sat in it and snapped it just in front of the drivers seat!

    SamC commented on the post, Marussia to miss last pre-season test after crash test failure 1 year, 2 months ago

    @ajokay it’s to ensure the safety of the driver and to prevent the teams putting them on a track in a car that doesn’t meet standard, whether the test is private or not doesn’t make any difference at all

    SamC commented on the post, Vettel: McLaren “look strong” in testing 1 year, 2 months ago

    Argh, all these little interviews and bits of news from testing are making it really difficult to choose my fantasy F1 team, was thinking of putting at least one lotus in there until today, oh well

    SamC commented on the post, Newey: “I can’t see myself going anywhere else” 1 year, 3 months ago

    It would be useful to not use the F1F facebook page and feeding F1F tweets onto facebook during the broadcast gap, we don’t want to have to avoid everything. That’s the trouble with the whole world being so […]

    SamC commented on the post, Toro Rosso STR7 – first pictures of Toro Rosso’s 2012 F1 car 1 year, 3 months ago

    I’m getting used to the noses looking like platypus now, but I’m starting to think all the cars just look too similar, except the McLaren with it’s smooth nose of course and the hideous Ferrari at the other […]

    Oh dear, it looks like it’s already crashed and had it’s nose broken!
    (I thought the exhausts were supposed to exit at an upward angle under the new rules?)

    SamC commented on the post, Which teams will still be in F1 in ten years’ time? 1 year, 4 months ago

    It’s a slightly odd question, as we know many of the names that have left F1 only really changed ownership while the actual team remained fairly stable.
    It comes down to who we feel is actually more important in […]

    SamC commented on the post, Vote for the best F1 driver of 2011 1 year, 5 months ago

    There’s some here that seem to wish to separate the cars performance from the drivers to compare the drivers. I feel that this is a bit unfair, after all the drivers work all season in practice sessions and with […]

    SamC commented on the post, Vote for the best F1 driver of 2011 1 year, 5 months ago

    I think that’s the question a lot of the voters are answering already,
    or “who was the highest finishing driver who’s team or persona I don’t hate?”

    SamC commented on the post, Lapped cars allowed to pass safety car again in 2012 1 year, 5 months ago

    use the starting grid for that matter, all cars line up on the grid in race order, and then a formation lap behind the safety car to get a rolling restart

    SamC commented on the post, Brundle joined by Croft and Davidson at Sky 1 year, 5 months ago

    As I understand it the concorde agreement (as long as it lasts) guarantees that there are some free-to-air broadcast races in the UK which is why we have this bizarre sharing arrangement in the first place.

    SamC commented on the post, Domenicali wants qualifying rules change 1 year, 7 months ago

    If the tires are this much of a problem then there does have to be a question of Pirelli and whether they have the right compounds for the track.
    That said I’m not sure we can blame Pirelli or the qualifying […]
