F1 Fanatic

I’m not Vettel’s biggest fan, but I don’t think he should be getting as much negative press as he is. Yes, he went against team orders and took matters into his own hands. However:

1) it’s only the second race […]

*off

So there’s talks of potentially being 22 races in the future. Yet, when one venue drops of the preliminary calendar there is a hard timing filling the slot.

I’m not fluent but I do speak a little bit of Finnish, and I believe that “food poisoning” translates to “vodka hangover” in English.

I have always viewed NASCAR as more of a form of entertainment than racing. The multiple passing argument doesn’t appeal to me. It’s like scoring a point in basketball, if you can do it hundreds of times in an […]

You may be right. I just know they got the broadcasting rights to it.

NBC Sports Channel now has the rights to Formula 1 broadcasting in the US. Check to see if you already have it, but Comcast does offer the channel.

In my opinion, Williams not having their 2013 challenger ready for the first test is going to be quite detrimental to the start of their season. I know that they tested certain 2013 components on their 2012 cars […]

“It was a combination, 50-50, not all down to me and everybody knows that.”

Umm, am I the only one who does not consider themselves “everybody” in that statement?

You guys are probably right, they could have just been the hard tires. But the reason I brought it up is that in all the pictures I’ve seen from testing today (not just on this website) the branding looks red to […]

What kind of tires is the McLaren on? Super Softs? I thought Pirelli was not bringing the Super Softs to this test. Unless those are some sort of filming/demo run tires.

Oh no, this rear diffuser looks nothing like Red Bull’s.

This is tough. In the end I voted Raikkonnen on Schumacher in Belgium. Watching the onboard footage from Raikkonnen’s car solidified my decision. Barreling down the straight at almost 200 MPH, with the daunting […]

Thanks Keith!

Am I safe to assume that next year Q1 and Q2 will now eliminate the slowest 6 cars from each session? Similar to how Q1 and Q2 eliminated the slowest 5 in 2010.

Thanks guys, temporary brain fart when I was making the post.

“*If the pair end the season tied on points, Vettel will be champion as he will have won the most races.”

Mathematically is it not possible for Alonso to win if they are tied on points at the end of the season? […]

Very surprised the FIA did not renew Gary Hartstein’s contract. I feel like he has been doing an excellent job, and he was trained by one of the best.

That is absolutely fantastic that the Lotus team is wearing those t-shirts. What a great sense of humor. From the outside it appears that Kimi is enjoying his time with the Enstone outfit. They seem to put him in […]

Kubica being a Pirelli tester would be great, it’s a win-win. He hasn’t raced on the Pirelli tires yet so it would be the perfect way for him to get a feel for them. With the ban on testing, it would be a great […]
