F1 Fanatic

@verstappen Yes but factoring in penalties defeats the object of a ‘form guide’. Surely you want to generate an image of how well a driver is during qualifying. Say a driver had 5 ‘poles’ this year but the team […]

Is ‘G-average’ for Grid? Q-average would have been more logical I think.

@sergio-perez You’re just bitter they stole your only hope of winning a race this year…

Bernie’s guilt hopefully.

@vettel1 Thanks for the link.

@prisoner-monkeys

KERS will be fully-integrated into the drivetrain, and its role as a supplementary power source will be replaced by TERS, or Thermal Energy Recovery System. Where KERS currently gives an […]

@nomore It’s nice that some people have forgotten Singapore 2009… Though I agree they have changed as a team a lot since them. If they had Kubica still, along with Kimi this year I think they could have been […]

to make sure he can end his 6 months gardening leave

What the..?? I’ll assume this part at least, is a joke. But leaving early to be able to be ‘in the know’ about **insert future employer here**’s car makes sense.

Has anyone got any idea why he would leave so early in a season? Has there been a falling out or conflict of interest or something? It just seems strange to me why he would leave, especially after one of his cars […]

The tyres on that shopping trolly would probably last longer on Rosbergs car than the Pirelli ones…

@vettel1

There could be a good chance for them with safety cars if they pit early maybe. If the Mercedes cars get the front row and then have no pace in the race the pack will be tightly bunched up from lap 1, […]

@vettel1 Maybe if they do a Vettel-esq strategy at Monaco from 2011, get in front of 11th place somehow and then block for the rest of the race.

@wificats Yeah I downloaded the image and it said in the properties it was taken at F29. I knew at that point I’d misunderstoon something haha.

I wish I had a 1.8 lens :’( At least I assume it’s a 1.8 if it can have such a shallow depth of field.

@celeste Ha! Saftey you say. Not to belittle the topic, but when drivers can do backflips and hit walls at the speeds of Webber/Kubica in Canada and walk away… they’re safe enough.

@celeste

Don’t get me wrong I don’t want to see Sunday drives either. It’s not 100% because I don’t want to see Red Bull at the front again. I am massively against a fundamental change mid season that could […]

@fer-no65

I am starting to appriciate just how difficult a situation Pirelli are in. I am against the current tyres and their over emphasis on conservative driving; however I am equally against making serious […]

Maybe Force India should give their mechanics T-Shirts that read: “Keep calm, and don’t screw up the pit stop”

Maybe he can bolt all four trophies on his car as tyres next year, see how far he gets.

If these changes lead to Red Bull returning to their 2011 performance levels, I shall boycot the rest of the season.
