Brundle lost his all credibility during his first year at Sky in 2012. Suddenly, he changed a lot of his views by 180 degrees, just so he would be on F1's side. It's very rare nowadays to hear Brundle criticise ANYTHING in F1, and if there's something that he clearly seems to be angry about in F1 h...

There was one more time between 1973 Canada and 1993 Brazil with SC - Hungary 1992. After one of the accidents, marshalls showed "SC" signs to drivers and SC was about enter the track, when they abruptly cancelled it.

FaceLOL

Gonna go with obvious ones for the best races:
- Europe 99
- Mexico 90
- South Africa 78

Worst:
- India 2011
- India 2012
- Korea 2012

While 2008 had some good races, 2007 was a snooze fest in most cases. China and Japan were the only interesting races. Both Brazil 2007 and 2008 would not be remembered at all today if they weren't the final rounds. Apart from problems for Hamilton in 07 and exciting two last laps in 08 there was ab...

Apparently Red Bull "forgot" and left without Webber to the airport. Now that's bizarre.

FaceLOL

Personally, what worries me far more is the safety of other competitors and spectators - if 15 seconds are not enough for a double check up, whether the wheels are firmly on, then someone in RBRs crew is not doing the job, he's supposed to do. Conspiracy theories aside, this could've ended up in a d...

Soon Tilke will have all spots on "10 worst F1 tracks of all time" list. The man is really determined to do that. Yet another pure-crap track after Valencia, Abu Dhabi (exciting races this year - yes, good tracks - no), India and Korea.

FaceLOL

How about Australia 85:

3 Rosberg
20 Laffite
18 Streiff
22 Capelli
15 Johansson
==========
78 Total

FaceLOL

I quite like it. There was some great racing throughout the field. Agreed. Sure, it didn't have the fight for the win which some people desperately want, but that's not just what F1 is about. Seems when Vettel wins comfortably, people like to believe the race was processional because they hate him ...

FaceLOL

Okay, so two years ago we discovered that Tilke forgot to install drainage on the track, last year we've had a boring, processional race apart from Webber/Hamilton fight and now we had this one. This track is so awful, I can't believe that people always keep defending it. It's in the middle of nowhe...

FaceLOL

I have no problem with the ones that are logical. I have problems with understanding Austria 2002 or Jerez 1997.

FaceLOL

Hembery said they wanted Kubica to test tyres for WRC.

FaceLOL

Adelaide and old Long Beach layout.

FaceLOL

The OP got me thinking though - I remember (vaguely) that the reason Mansell was brought back in was to please Renault and sponsors in general (to have a WDC on the grid after Senna's death), however wouldn't have it been a bit more logical to have offered Prost the seat? Or was it offered and turn...

FaceLOL

12/15. Got wrong 2009 podium, lights and lap record holder.

FaceLOL

Sauber is far from inferior. It's superior to every other car in every aspect apart from quali pace.

FaceLOL

18/20 - I have no idea how I missed 2nd Italian driver from 2011! Also, got 1969 finish wrong by one car.

FaceLOL

4th first lap incident this year for him. Not a shocker, he had it coming like Hakkinen had it in 1994. Good decision in my opinion, hopefully he will learn a lot from it.

what the hell is with this investigating after the race, i was under the impression that a post race investigation was only if there are insuficent racing time to investigate the incidents . A few thoughts on the race Grosjean, should be investigated and a grid drop applied plus be made to apologis...

FaceLOL

Did anyone else notice that we had today two crashes where the rear wheel came off the car? In 1st corner mayhem and Karthikeyan's crash we had wheels flying dangerously close to drivers. If there's anything to be really investigated after this race, it's those wheels - especially the one that came ...

FaceLOL

Why the hell everyone keeps mixing Maldonado in this crash? Even if he made a jump start, deal with it - he had nothing to do with the crash. Moreover he got tagged by Perez which ended in him spinning out few laps later.

FaceLOL

Please, stop confusing sand traps with gravel traps.

FaceLOL

Kobayashi has a great chance of winning. He was 5kph clear in 1st sector speed trap, where it matters the most. If he gets Button on the first lap, then he'll probably win.

FaceLOL

About GP3 crash - it wouldn't happen if there was damn gravel trap. I keep saying how unsafe tarmac runoffs are, but most of people don't take it seriously.

FaceLOL

Ridicolous penalty, witch-hunt continues...

FaceLOL

It's not that much safer at all and it will actually lead to the first dead in years imo. If Silverstone had tarmac instead of the gravel, Schumacher would've died for sure in 1999. They forget that when breaks fail, Tarmac is so much more dangerous than gravel. Just have 2 meters of gravel between...

FaceLOL

Safety of tarmac runoffs instead of gravel shown here:

And that was only GT1. Now imagine such situation with F1 car, lethal trap.

FaceLOL

Yeah, I remember something like that as well. However, it could have been International Trophy race, rather than GP. No doubt about Silverstone and first corner.

Edit: hmm, checked all International Trophy results and couldn't find anything...

FaceLOL

Keeping in mind Honda/Brawn, what they really should do is focus on 2014 car.

FaceLOL

It was just a reminder to all "it's lottery not racing" people, what we had 10 years ago.

FaceLOL

Sauber, except for quali.

Last 10 laps on fresh softs, they'd be something like 3-3.5s faster per lap.

Oh yeah, also that, sorry for missing it, but I completely forgot Bahrain.

Probably the most bizarre thing I've seen this year. We saw in Canada that pitting with 10 laps to go when you are very close to the leader and on same, oldish tyres, is clearly the way to go. While I understand that Button had a shadow of chance with 10 laps to go, there is no way RBR didn't see th...

17/20. Somehow I missed 12th question completely during reading the questions.

Most epic emotional roller coaster ride ever..

Which lasted for last 3 laps. Apart from that it was a snoozefest and noone seems to remember that. If you want something like that, you should go with Mexico 1964.
