Re: Surfers paradise Indy circuit for aus gp will it work
I live bout 5 mins from surfers and have watched the champ cars there in the past only to image how much better the formula one cars would be here than Melbourne. I still go every year but only have v8 supercars there now and need an international series, would love to see f1 there it would be way ...

Re: Is Alonso feeling the pressure
Lack of motivation shows from Alonsos face and acts in race track. He might even me slower than massa this weekend. I think for Alonso it's best to retire, santander can buy him out and Ferrari can get young, fresh and faster driver. Vettel + Newey on the team. The lack of motivation really shows a...

Re: Blue flag rule revisited
the blue flag is there for the slower backmarker cars. hamilton was neither slow, nor a backmarker. having a HRT battle a Ferrari when there is (theoretically) a 50kmph speed difference is dangerous. yet having a front running McLaren battle a ferarri at relative speeds, isnt.

It has to be said that neither Vettel or Webber have had much luck passing cars, but Vettel has had a few front row starts to get him out of said traffic. Red Bull seem to be the 2nd fastest at pit stops but still leave a lot to be desired when it comes to strategy so far this year. Even though Mar...

Monaco is a joke. I don't think there has been a single overtaking move all race this year. the only two attempts were on Kovalainen and both ended in collisions. Last year, too. The only person who even bothered to race was Hamilton. While I agree that the crashes were his fault, at least he tried...

from where i see it, i think Webber knew Vettel couldnt pull out enough to stay ahead after his pitstop, and he knew it was oin to be tight, so he wanted to maintain his tyres to avoid them going off.
