    Keith Collantine commented on the post, Penalty points system for drivers moves a step closer 2 weeks, 1 day ago

    @shimks I haven’t entirely made my mind up yet. Though like some people I find the implied equivalence between some misdemeanours very odd. For example ignoring a blue flag is a far lesser crime than overtaking […]

    Keith Collantine commented on the post, Red Bull and Mercedes not the only ones resorting to team orders 1 month, 4 weeks ago

    @nick101 @shimks Mercedes said the pace of the race was quicker than they expected. This might have been for two reasons.

    First, the lap times are quicker this year, due to car development and Pirelli producing […]

    Max Jacobson commented on the post, Toro Rosso aim to recreate their Vettel-era peak after technical team shake-up 2 months, 1 week ago

    @shimks – really, what can Toro Rosso actually do that would benefit Red Bull Racing, other than feeding them drivers (well, Sebastian Vettel)?

    @shimks

    The answer is, of course, for those greedy bar stewards who run the sport to share profits more equally. It will only profit all parties in the end.

    No, the answer is to find a way to cut costs so that […]

    Keith Collantine commented on the post, Fewer races and more testing? No thanks, Alonso 4 months ago

    @shimks

    surely testing could be reduced even further?

    The FIA certainly seem to think so – there are three fewer ordinary testing days this year than last (down from 15 to 12).

    Keith Collantine commented on the post, Vettel leads home Raikkonen to take first win of 2012 1 year, 1 month ago

    @shimks

    This is really ridiculous. It’s not proper racing.

    However … great race!

    That’s quite a contradiction! Are you feeling a bit conflicted about this?

    Prisoner Monkeys replied to the forum topic Will Felipe Massa finish the season with Ferrari? in the group Group logoF1 1 year, 2 months ago

    @Shimks – I honestly don’t think Alonso would mind a competitive team-mate that much. He’s matured a lot since 2007, and I think a lot of the problem back then is that Alonso joined McLaren assuming that he was […]

    AndrewTanner commented on the post, Alguersuari: Marko comments “absolutely not acceptable” 1 year, 2 months ago

    @shimks He’s also delivered a double world champion at only 24 years of age. That’s vindication enough, at least for a few years.

    @shimks Don’t worry – our sleazy old men don’t do any grooming.

    Keith Collantine commented on the post, Rosberg says DRS and tyres helped Schumacher close gap in 2011 1 year, 3 months ago

    @shimks I’d definitely encourage you to give IndyCar and GP2 a try if you can watch them.

    @shimks Thanks! It was fun to write…

    (Disclaimer: I have done my fair share of quaffing and nibbling.)

    @shimks A while ago we had a series on design innovations that were banned: turbo engines, four-wheel-steering, gas turbine engines, active suspension and lots more. Find it […]
