Massa to Williams! Maldonado / Hulk to Lotus! Perez to Sauber or no drive? Rookie Magnussen possibly in McLaren for 2014! Love the Silly season! :D The Silly Season became quite sensible for a time, but has risen with avengence in 2013. I've given up genuinely speculating, because surprises seem ju...

Can't see him staying in GP2, his stock might fall. No seat at Mercedes. Williams isn't likely, but maybe in for Force India, even as merely a 3rd/Friday driver.

His dad is at races quite a lot, not as much this season but we saw him on a regular basis previous seasons. As for Seb's gf, I think Seb has a good grasp on his career and his private life, keeping her away from the prying eyes of the public, apparently he has been dating her since they were at sc...

Two things off the top of my head.

1. Look at the size of teams. They're massive compared to even 10-20 years ago.
2. Travel expense. Not only more races, but more flyaways when their base is in Europe.

While we are talking of dislikes, Kimi is really annoying me this year I'm sad to say. I'm glad he's going to a team I dislike next year! :D I hated Kimi previously and Fred. At the moment I like them both I liked Alonso from F3000, was slightly upset when he beat Schumacher, disappointed when he m...

He is disliked because he doesnt deserve the wins,wdc...He have...Some people say that if you win a wdc is well deserved,i dont think so...If you play the chess by yourself im 100 % sure that you are going to win,because cannot win other than yourself...This years in F1 happens the same,a F1 car vs...

Turn 1 and turn 2, Turn 1 being the uphill right hander (the corner that COTA has stolen) and Turn 2 (Remus) and the final 2 corners (the 2nd to last corner is where shumi went off in 98 chasing Hakkinen). are the only corners to have the kitty litter taken away. The rest of the circuit is Unchange...

I started watching F1 in 1997. I think that was already into the Chrome look rather than the White and Red look? I associate the current look more with McLaren than the red and white. 97 was the year they switched. I'm 27 so for the vast majority of my life McLaren's colours have been Silver/Chrome...

Williams need to be a manufacturer on board, the name still has a bit of magic to it and they do not produce road cars so perfect for a manufacturer to get into bed with. Another statistic is Mclaren have won one constructors title in 23 seasons. That is since 1991, but in the 8 seasons before they...

Jerez 97 qualifying. Schumacher recorded the time followed by Villeneuve then Frentzen?

Was tempted to look it up in case I was well off the mark, but decided to once go for gut instinct.

The number of races doesn't matter. It's the form of the teams and drivers that dictates when the title is won or lost. So you think 1000000 races equals a decent chance of a title decider? Of course the number of races makes a difference. Straw Man. In 23 years (your choice of time period) we've h...

Top English Association Football teams play 38 games each a year, title comes down to final day often, basketball and hockey over 80 games sometimes leads to close division races.

I don't want to sound ignorant if it's been talked about But where is Antony Davidson this weekend? This is the second weekend he's been absent from commentating! Any idea guys?

Wanted Lewis to pass both McLarens then flip the bird at Ron Dennis on the pit wall.

I wonder if there's any chance of the drivers wielding a bit of power and grouping together to appeal this decision. Alonso and Webber must have a few allies between then and I imagine a lot of drivers would sympathise with the ridiculousness of this. How about all drivers agree through GPDA that f...

After the second, they warned him he'd receive a 10-place grid drop for another driving infringement.

I agree, while the rules are there for a reason, a fine would be more appropriate. However, if it had been Seb involved, I don't think they'd be quite as much sympathy. When I saw it, I instantly though of Mansell giving Senna a lift back and that Senna apparently got some really good technical info...

Hungary. The earlier the better.

On a more serious note, I always think Suzuki, Adelaide or Interlagos need to be the last or penultimate race as they always provided a spectacle. Abu Dhabi in 2010 was special as it was still technically a 4-way fight and the result pleased me.

Vettel is simply driving the best he has in his career so far, no one can match him when he's at his best. So much for Hamilton making the difference to the Mercedes in Quali according to some on here. Three tenths behind Rosberg isn't good enough. He'll have to pull something out of the bag tomorr...

Just give the trophy to Vettel already and let's bring on next season. Yawn Ya the race will unfold like all the other races, he will quickly build up his 10 second lead and then maintain it for the duration of thee race. Then he starts to set purple sectors near the end, his team tell him to conse...

Newey and McLaren tried to get Schumacher in 1998. It didn't work. So Newey does want the best. Newey and Mclaren? or just Mclaren? or Ron Dennis? or Norbert? I know Mclaren tried to sign Schumacher. Whether Newey had any say in it is not known. They tried to sign him for 1993, long before Newey ar...

Prost claims that towards the end of 1989 he had only a handful of engineers with him whereas Senna had well over double that number (on Sky he said 4 v 40, but I've heard other numbers). That wasn't sabotage, but meant his car wasn't as well supported to get the best out of it. If you believe teams...

He won't lose any that matter. How good a fan are they if they can't follow him because of the team he drives for?

So if Kimi does beat Alonso next seasons wonder how long it'll be before Alonso kicks off a la 2007. We all know he doesn't like it when his team mate gets close to him, never mind beats him. Kimi is the type not to rise to words either. I think Alonso is in for a little bit of a shock and perhaps ...

Next year we have: Red Bull - Vettel & Ricciardo Ferrari - Alonso & Schumi (I know Kimi's now been announced) McLaren - Kimi & Button Mercedes - Hamilton & Moss Lotus - Grosjean & Stewart Force India - di Resta & Barrichello Sauber - Massa & Frentzen (replaced mid-season w...
