    Sam B commented on the post, Rate the race: 2012 Canadian Grand Prix 1 year ago

    Its a 9 from me, very close racing, very strategic and very interesting, DRS made things relatively straightforward to pass but I don’t mind that, it meant that those with pace were able to use it. Enjoyed every minute.

    Sam B commented on the post, Vettel edges Alonso in final practice in Montreal 1 year ago

    He does seem to be struggling massively compared to Hamilton. The only weekend he seems to have bettered Hamilton was Melbourne and even then I don’t really think it was on outright pace. I just don’t think he is […]

    Well I am so far averaging 2 points per race. pretty poor showing really.

    Sam B commented on the post, Vote for your 2012 Monaco GP driver of the weekend 1 year ago

    I voted for Perez, he was quick all weekend and got unlucky in qualifying, I feel that the failure on the left front was quite possibly as a result of Maldonado but he still had a good race, quick when he was able […]

    Sam B commented on the post, Maldonado handed ten-place grid penalty for Perez collision 1 year ago

    That does seem awfully lenient, I know its not really comparable but an effective 24 place drop for running out of petrol, vs a 10 place drop for deliberately causing an accident, and (even though the speeds were […]

    Sam B commented on the post, Perez: 2011 Monaco crash a “watershed” moment 1 year, 1 month ago

    I believe that as well as getting rid of the bump they have moved the Armco where Perez had his crash further back and put more of those catch barriers.

    Sam B commented on the post, Hamilton penalty hands Maldonado first pole position 1 year, 1 month ago

    I do feel sorry for Lewis, through no fault of his own he is going to miss what looked like an excellent opportunity to win his first race of the season.

    As mentioned by many previously the penalty seems […]

    Sam B commented on the post, Should F1 change its tyre strategy? 1 year, 1 month ago

    At the moment its like a double whammy, if you push you will push your tyres over the cliff, and if you go offline you will pick up marbles, lose time and grip, and because you have lost grip you are sliding and […]

    Sam B commented on the post, Should F1 change its tyre strategy? 1 year, 1 month ago

    I don’t have any problems with the durability of the tyres at all, I just don’t like “the cliff” because it means that attempts at conservation become hugely costly if you just try to do one lap too many. If the […]

    I have a nasty feeling that the Kaiser Cheifs would do quite well at this round of the predictions championship.

    Sam B commented on the post, Hamilton to take five-place grid penalty in China 1 year, 2 months ago

    As mentioned above it is pole position after all penalties are applied. Pole sitter is the driver who is on pole come Sunday afternoon, not necessarily who was the fastest in Q3.

    “However they’re not in as comfortable a position as they were at the end of last year and will need to wrong every last hundredth from the VJM05 to keep scoring.”

    that should be […]

    Are Ferrari still not allowing drivers on Twitter. Because @alo_oficial is followed by a lot of F1 pundits and drivers and has the verified tick.

    Sam B commented on the post, Lotus to keep name until 2017 despite losing title sponsorship 1 year, 2 months ago

    I never said that Flavio is any better or worse than anyone else, the other teams are far from saints either, But you can’t deny that he has a somewhat tarnished reputation.

    MS: Glad I was out of the way, I think my front wing would cost a bit more to repair than Karthikeyen’s.

    As a side note one of the suggestions that my spellcheck gives for Karthikeyen is Penny-Farthing, would […]

    Sam B commented on the post, Lotus to keep name until 2017 despite losing title sponsorship 1 year, 2 months ago

    Ahh yes Flavio, the pinnacle of integrity and honesty, I can’t honestly see that any of this makes that much difference, the most likely outcome would seem to be a new title sponsor will come on board and the team […]

    Sam B commented on the post, Perez voted Driver of the Weekend for Malaysia 1 year, 2 months ago

    I am not saying that is the only factor, but in this race that is what clinched it for him, if someone like Webber, Button, Hamilton or Vettel had done exactly what Perez had done then Alonso would have won the […]
