Honestly, who knows. All depends on track I suppose.

Miami is a stinker. Las Vegas was actually really good. But overall F1 cars, as the pinnacle of motorsport, should be on real tracks.

I'd swap ANY street circuit for Bathurst.

Genuinely going to be one of the most interesting driver battles in a long time. I think Charles will make a huge effort early on to stamp his authority and will likely do better over the first 3-6 races. From then on I think Hamilton will continue to improve and the mind game will begin. There will...

I just tried it on % of max constructor points available and if my sums are right, McLaren take it for '1988 again with 1988 McLaren (199/240) = 83% 2023 RBR (860/1058) = 81% Interesting to hypothesize what RB's tally would be had they had a driver pairing comparative to McLaren 1988. Exactly. Put ...

Digging this one back up. I just logged into PF1 forums for the first time in a long time. And realized it had been 10 years. wow. I also realized this was the last thread I commented in and then stopped, as I did stop watching F1 for a long time. Made me realize that the Bianchi accident obviously ...

For the technical side: Assign the teams a set amount of fuel for the race and then open up the rules a bit. Let them choose the engine configuration they want to run, it's up to them to make it till the end on the given amount of fuel. This - Or even if they wanted to refuel or not. A set of rules...

At a high level.

I honestly think it should be Mick Schumacher. He has been invaluable in the simulator and is already part of the team. Fantastic brand name at a bargain price. It lets Russell be a clear number 1 to see how he does and gives Mick an opportunity to either shine or prove he isn't going to make it in ...

I think it looks better design wise. The sidepods certainly look more cohesive. Hopefully it is quick straight out of the box.

Praying that the car hasn't gone underneath the counterweight/engine area at the back. Worrying that the far side tyre was flat.

Looked like some real respect/affection between Hamilton and Mansell.

He was rubbish at the interviews though.

Not today, not anyday.

Agree. We all like to get bullish about making it more like the old days but then things like this happen. Safety strides were put in to reduce the number of times it felt this hollow.

US television is reporting that he plowed into the existing crash site (Sutil)
Not sure if he has hit marshalls or his car hit the crane.

sounds bad.

back tyre looks flat on the crane/tractor. I hope Bianchi didn't hit it.

This is looking like a great drive by Vettel. The relief of the announcement looks to have done him good.

Hamilton shouldn't be holding anything back. too many variables today. if he can, he should.
Hopefully no team orders from Wolff.

Very impressed with the whole field's driving in tough conditions.

This crap. Let them race and lets see who has skills ffs! It's aquaplaning is the problem. Aquaplaning is dangerous in these conditions Understand that, but if the best possible speed is 40mph and someone can run 43mph then they will be faster. Aquaplaning a car off track at less than 100mph is unl...

Agree. Call it a 20 lap sprint and let them race.

My view is this. Vettel has always wanted to drive for Ferrari and with Alonso leaving that opportunity opens up. Ferrari get to say they have a 4 time WDC. If he stayed at Red Bull and Ricciardo beat him handily for another season then maybe that Ferrari drive never materialises. I do think his cre...

Rally Cars - Germany. they race in an area where there are still these concrete bollards designed to stop tanks. they are right nect to the track.

I wish RBR would take a younger driver. IMO HUlkenberg is the best bet. However, I cannot see them not taking Raikkonen. Him and Vettel get on, and he is definitely faster than Webber. I do, however, think it will begin the end of RBR dominance. Have you ever noticed that Vettel acts like a bit of a...

As someone who has followed MOTO GP for a long time. Vale on the top step is magic.

I havent seen the race ye, but have seen teh reply of the last corner. Lorenzo needs to do some watching of old tapes. Marquez did EXACTLY what Rossi did to Gibernau. Brilliant.

i don't get it. why not ban them from KERS for a set # of laps? or turn their DRS off? So much easier to implement and review.... The only adjustment to a Turbo should boost level be in car. Up!

I think Marquez will win the title this year. He is just THAT good. Don't write Rossi off yet though. there will come a race this season when him and Marquez will truly go at it, and i'd still put my money on the aging Dr. Rossi isn't retiring anytime soon. and good. even if he gives us more and mo...

Funniest: Hamilton stops in Mclaren pit
Satisfying: Hamilton pole position. ended the speculation of whether the move made sense..
Enjoyable: Button and Perez going at it.
Frustrating: Webbers ridiculous fuel shortage.
