    US_Peter commented on the post, Massa says Ferrari still need to improve in qualifying 5 days, 20 hours ago

    I don’t know if you need a radical change in the rules, but there certainly seems to be a lack of understanding from many fans at just how quickly F1 teams adapt to regulations. If new restrictions weren’t put in […]

    US_Peter commented on the post, Bungling the tyre row will give F1 a tainted title fight 6 days, 3 hours ago

    Particularly when said three year old car was from the team that has been the best on its tires this year. I can’t imagine that that’s just a coincidence.

    US_Peter commented on the post, DRS and tyres: Has F1 got the balance right? 2 weeks, 6 days ago

    @fangio85 I agree, but unfortunately that ship has sailed.

    US_Peter commented on the post, DRS and tyres: Has F1 got the balance right? 3 weeks ago

    @magnificent-geoffrey @bascb I think the FIA are aware of all of that, but because they changed the rules on the use of DRS in practice and qualifying this year, it meant that teams would likely shorten their top […]

    Agreed.

    US_Peter commented on the post, Alonso: Raikkonen ‘driving better than anyone’ 1 month ago

    There’s no way he can be talking about Massa though, because Alonso will be the first to tell you that the Ferrari last year was one of the slowest on the grid. It was only through his own superpowers that he was […]

    I heard that Alonso said Adrian Newey out-qualified them both…

    US_Peter commented on the post, Raikkonen doesn’t understand tyre complaints 1 month, 1 week ago

    Well of course the driver and team principle of the team whose car appears to be the most gentle on its tires would say that. Let’s not forget whose old car Pirelli uses to test the tires now, and while I’m […]

    Well there you have it… if Bernie isn’t aware of a protest happening, then it didn’t happen.

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

    That’s what I gave it as well. Had Webber not retired it could’ve been an even more exciting race, it would’ve been fascinating to see how his strategy could have worked from the pitlane. Despite the lack of […]

    The Queen is not a Ron Howard film. Perhaps you’re confusing the screenwriter with the director.

    US_Peter commented on the post, Supermarket boss tipped as Ecclestone successor 1 month, 3 weeks ago

    I agree with the COTD. This is the third year I’ve purchased the official timing app, and couldn’t watch the sport without it anymore, it’s become such an invaluable part of my viewing experience. It’s pricey, but […]

    US_Peter commented on the post, Why Mark Webber’s next move may be from Casey Stoner’s playbook 1 month, 3 weeks ago

    @ecwdanselby Spot on. People constantly whining about the regulations added to the sport every year to curtail the front runners are completely missing that point. If regulations didn’t constantly reign the teams […]

    US_Peter commented on the post, Alonso defends decision not to change broken wing 2 months ago

    @Magnificent-Geoffrey I don’t think the wing lasted long enough. As soon as he passed pit-in, on NBC Steve Matchett instantly said “I can imagine Charlie Whiting is going to take a very dim view of this” and […]

    Wikipedia shows percentages of things likes poles, wins, fastest laps, etc. which give a better idea of that sort of thing.

    @keithcollantine, I was wondering the same thing. Thought for sure Rossi was the obvious choice. Hopefully this means he’s gonna be getting a lot of seat time in FP1s this year. He was on NBCSN briefly with Will […]

    Tunnelbear. Look it up. Way simpler to use than a proxy server, reasonably priced.

    US_Peter commented on the post, Red Bull play a cagey off-season but discount them at your peril 2 months, 2 weeks ago

    Another trick teams supposedly use is to measure a hot lap from somewhere other than the start/finish line. So for example they might do a slow sector 1&2 of a lap, then a fast sector 3, sector 1 and sector 2, […]
