    W-K commented on the post, Vettel on pole as Bottas stars in Canada 1 week, 3 days ago

    Taking that as the precedent, then yes he should be investigated. But I have to say I didn’t agree with the Hamilton penalty, on the same excuse.

    What was either of them expected to do wait until some […]

    W-K replied to the forum topic FOM considering live streaming? in the group Group logoF1 2 weeks, 5 days ago

    Talking of the sound and commentary. I would like to see this on separate channels, so that if the commentator starts rambling, or doing meaningless repeats or interviews the commentary could be lowered or muted […]

    W-K commented on the post, Ricciardo told Grosjean “you’re an idiot” after crash 2 weeks, 5 days ago

    I actually quite like the idea of a penalty points system, Would get the teams thinking about driver selection if it also counted in their totals. And regarding the -ve points, alldrivers could start at 100 […]

    Well I can hope, I cannot justify the cost of getting Sky sport F1 via Virgin. And I cannot receive any Satellite here. And I am not going to pay £9.99/day for Sky’s TV Now. So I am hoping for any other cheaper […]

    Just got round to reading all the other stuff besides race and testing news and found this.

    Personally I would welcome it, but it may mean the end of being […]

    It has to be Rosberg, if he wasn’t challenged thoughout the race then that is vettels problem. If his car was so good, as in that, in the last few laps he posted the fastest time, why didn’t he put Rosberg under […]

    W-K commented on the post, Testing row casts shadow over Rosberg’s win 3 weeks, 2 days ago

    If someone doesn’t use some common sense soon over this issue, I can see Pirelli not revising the tyres for this season and withdrawing their offer of being the tyre supplier next year. Pirelli are on record […]

    In Ted Kravitz’s report, on the sky website, he states the race result is official, therefore it cannot be changed.

    From what I have read and heard, it was Michelin that conducted the test, not Mercedes. Mercedes was one of the few teams that said they would help in tyre testing if Michelin organised one, which leads me to ask […]

    And ignoring Blue flag – 2 points seems harsh.

    W-K commented on the post, Soft tyre’s short life poses strategic conundrum 2 months, 1 week ago

    If things stay as they are, and it was my choice, in one of the top six teams, I think I would run
    Q1 – med
    Q2 – soft
    Q3 – med
    Start on those meds,
    Change to new meds,
    Change to new softs,
    Change to new softs.

    There is an application called F1lt, http://code.google.com/p/f1lt/ that uses the data from the http://www.formula1.com/live_timing/ pages that can record the data for you.

    W-K commented on the post, Were Red Bull & Mercedes right to use team orders? 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    Lets be absolutely clear on this subject of team orders. The team owner(s) pays the bills and gets a large percentage of their income for the team performance not the individual drivers performance. Although they […]

    Sorry but all the lap 45 times tell us is that Vettel was up Webbers exhaust pipes.

    W-K commented on the post, Red Bull and Mercedes not the only ones resorting to team orders 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    I am coming to the conclusion that “Team Orders” are the symptom rather than the “problem”.

    And we have to acknowledge that there are different forms of team orders, first priority is for team championship and […]

    W-K commented on the post, Vettel apologises to Webber: “It’s not a victory I’m proud of” 2 months, 3 weeks ago

    Totally agree.

    If the team championship wan’t so important, I would want the team to suspend him for a race or two and give the reserve driver some experience.

    What is the point of free practice one sessions lasting 1½ hours when the teams have one hard set of tyres that only last about 20 laps, or 35 minutes of running time.

    With restricted testing and non mid […]

    From April 9th, Sky only have 8 exclusive races left. I might try it for the next 4 race days only and see if Virgin have the half price offer still on to cover the last 4 races.
