Doesn't Paul Ricard circuit have super sticky tarmac that penalises drivers when they go off circuit? This would be a good solution, however not the one I want. Bring back gravel, if a driver is out of the race then they're out. The bullet proof reliability as part of modern F1 is what bores me. Bri...

Because Nico also went off on the first lap and there is a general agreement to be more lenient on first lap incidents Nico was actually hit by Verstappen, but still choose to stay on track, and do all the cornering. Lewis did not take two (!) corners. Yeah, but because Nico was involved in somethi...

I was only excited about last season finale, because ot was so unusual. Beside that the races lack something. Maybe I need to get used to it, but then why should I? I barely have time and energy to follow F1 nowadays. Because in the future FE and F1 will merge, with F1 buying out FE and some of the...

A little late to the party here. For me if Rosberg wins it he will have deserved it because I feel he has done a better job with the starts. Yes, Lewis has looked like the faster driver for most of the year, yes he has had worst reliability, but if Lewis would have handled race starts as well as Ni...

@mcdo Kleefton is absolutely right. Even in 2011, a season Hamilton decided not to complete after Monaco, he still managed to outqualify Button. If we talk about 2012, you would think they were driving different cars. Qualifyings was a total destruction, at the level of Alonso-Massa(check the numbe...

Isn't this going to result in Formula E becoming a spending war like F1 or is there rules in place to prevent that? Unless I'm very much mistaken there's a budget cap $3.5m. Wouldn't surprise me if that starts to creep up one way or another though. Still, I think it's good to have a series that has...

The idea of a conspiracy against Hamilton is so ridiculous, and I suspect that by a very long way the most likely scenario is it's just bad luck. However, a brief glance back over F1's controversies makes the idea of a conspiracy not completely out of the question. I suspect reading internet forums...

Thank you everyone!

There's been a lot of talk about F1's new owners doing a lot to bring in new fans and follow the lead of many american sports. I for one am a big fan of a lot of american sports, and I think the coverage can be better just like US racing series with 360 degree rotating cameras etc HOWEVER Watching t...

Thank you for that, I appreciate it.

This comes from the Singapore GP Guide... "As we approach the first night race of the season," "Since 1966, Singapore has hosted Formula 1 on 16 separate occasions, but didn’t host a single event between 1974 and 2007 due to concerns about the track." This is a very misleading sentence. It reads as ...

For me, anyone that loves Senna and hates Verstappen is a fool. If Senna were racing today we'd all be tearing him apart for his move or we crash attitude, which Verstappen has. He would be penalised like crazy. History has looked on Senna kindly because he was great, dangerous, but great. Verstapp...

Still wish they'd introduce GP2 (and ideally GP3) so you can start your career in the feeder series. I'd love to have the starting place in F1 influenced by how you do in GP3 and GP2. For instance, if you win the GP3 title then you get opportunities to move to a top GP2 team, links to F1 teams as a...

Senna-Berger is also 18% the same as Schumacher-Barrichello and one of Bergers 3 was Senna pulling over on the line and giving him it. Jenson and Hamilton win situation is quite skewed. Jenson throughout the period was in the running to win about 12 races and won 8 of them (Monza 10, Turkey 10 and ...

Hello Just wondering if anyone knows where I can get a breakdown of stint times and lap averages for FP during race weekends. Is there a website that offers this?

I also shared a urinal with Alonso in the F1 paddock... he was way shorter than I thought he was. Sounds like the paddock could do with at least one more urinal. Or an "engaged" sign. ;) But seriously nice stories, interesting to hear about Marko. He gets a hard time but behind the competition ther...

I think we shouldn't forget that it was Hamilton that turned in on Rosberg. Hamilton could have driven straight to avoid the accident. IMO Nico is 100% at fault, but Hamilton is the one who could have avoided touching. I also don't believe the break issues spouted by Merc. I think they are just say...

The real problem was later on when Rosberg didn't let Hamilton back on track When the rules clearly state that it is the returning driver that should do so in a safe manner? Even Button said to Ant Davidson just before his post race debrief that he was amazed he didn't give him room to rejoin. Davi...
