Paul di Resta

Sorry if this doesn't warrant a new thread but did anyone else think di Resta just did not want to be there for commentary for FP1 on sky sports F1 (I didn't watch FP2 so I don't know how that went). It was cringe worthy at times, it was obvious that David Croft had to fill in the gaps for di Resta'...

Re: 21 into 20 clearly doesnt work

Instead of starting a new thread i'd thought i'd ask this here. Anybody know how likely the calendar is to change for next year? I have booked to go to Silverstone and I am pricing ferries from Northern Ireland with imminent intention to book. Should I wait to get confirmation of the dates?
Thanks

Re: How would you rate the 2015 Australian GP?

Average. We saw a few youngsters perform pretty well, and Sauber pleasantly surprised me. What struck me during the race, is that the false "solution" DRS is now not even a solution anymore. Time for a solid rethink about aerodynamics; those front wings laugh in our faces. 8O Pretty much agree. Bru...
