    tvm commented on the post, Ferrari join Lotus in criticising tyre revisions 4 days, 6 hours ago

    Yeah I’m sure that “Matt Sommerfield” has a much better grip on tires than 4 former f1 champions who has actually tried these tires and think they are crap…

    Why not artificially degrading Gearboxes, […]

    tvm commented on the post, Boullier criticises Pirelli tyre tweaks 5 days, 3 hours ago

    BS, BS and BS, Ferrari and Lotus didn’t “get” it at all, the truth is that they are not by any means fast, merely able to cruise less slowly than the rest of the pack.

    Get rid of that rubbish rubber…

    tvm commented on the post, Pirelli bring tyre changes forward to Canada 6 days, 7 hours ago

    Except… you cant talk about fastest car, the cars that are winning now are not fast, they are simply the least slow, its a joke.

    tvm commented on the post, Hamilton doesn’t want another race like that 1 week, 2 days ago

    @red-andy Could we all agree to refrain from calling what happens on Sunday’s in F1 weekends “Race” please.

    It is not a race, its a strategy game that could be settled virtually with no need for a race track.

    @shreyasf1fan You must have taken a wrong turn on the Internet somewhere, this is racing site, supposedly for the most mean machines in the game.

    Easy mistake to make honestly, with all the talk about tires, […]

    tvm commented on the post, Button’s complaint shows why we need more team radio 2 weeks ago

    So what?

    Not like it helped Alonso to have radio and team spotting what must have been the most obvious damage to a front wing in recent years.

    tvm commented on the post, Button’s complaint shows why we need more team radio 2 weeks ago

    They should loose the radios all-together, make it up to the driver to manage tactic, only using boards to call pit stops.

    tvm commented on the post, DRS and tyres: Has F1 got the balance right? 2 weeks, 4 days ago

    Have you actually been to 1 f1 race?

    My first was in 2000, at Spa. Before that I had heard that the noise was crazy and my thought was…” ah boys with toys, they just want to make noise :)”

    Wasn’t until […]

    tvm commented on the post, DRS and tyres: Has F1 got the balance right? 2 weeks, 4 days ago

    @jonners99 So you think its ok that Red Bull have to turn their car DOWN to be able to handle the tyres?

    tvm commented on the post, Button and Massa say current tyres are good for F1 1 month ago

    Yeah 12 laps with not much consideration to the tires, the most we have seen so far is one driver (Vettel) doing what, 5 laps all out? And then the tires where shot.

    Can’t wait for an all rain race again, for […]

    No you are silly :)
    Along with Keith! you don’t really understand what 80% racing means, let me try:

    tvm commented on the post, Rate the race: 2013 Chinese Grand Prix 1 month, 1 week ago

    Its the last year, this year, we get to hear v8′s at 18000, except we dont :(

    Next year will be v6 with a lot lower revs.

    Was hoping for some rain, that could have been given some racing to the limit.

    tvm commented on the post, Rate the race: 2013 Chinese Grand Prix 1 month, 1 week ago

    3

    Last year with v8/high rev engines and they only rev them 80%, pathetic.

    tvm commented on the post, Hamilton on pole as Red Bull hit trouble 1 month, 1 week ago

    This need fixing, two easy solutions:

    No time set in Q3 > back of grid (there could be tech issues)

    Not within 107% in Q3 = No Start

    The 3 trailers ought to get a penalty for discrediting the sport.

    tvm commented on the post, Mercedes comfortably quickest in first practice 1 month, 1 week ago

    Lots of action in pro whrestling as well, doesn’t mean it has anything to do with sports.

    Like these Sunday cruises has very little in common with actual racing.

    This may seem far out but…

    Yeah well, here is an exercise for you, hit the “back” button in your browser to get to F1 Fanatic overview, then browse the articles and count the number of mentioning on tires and strategy, vs. the mentioning of […]

    tvm commented on the post, Rate the race: 2013 Australian Grand Prix 2 months ago

    You into pro-whrestling much?

    I mean if you thought that was overtaking you must either be very new to F1 (overtaking is supposed to be hard) or just think that the show of seeing cars drive by each other is good enough.
