Re: McLaren tested higher nose at Mugello
Am I the only one who thinks the new nose looks ugly? Hell I even prefer some of the stepped noses over that Macca one. But hey, if it gives them a performance gain, then who am I to judge.

Re: Mercedes conducts F1 quit study
I'm actually quite saddened to hear this. I hate how all factory teams seem to quit F1 as soon as things don't go their way (Obviously apart from Ferrari and Mclaren) But Mercedes have been a team I've basically worshipped since they started in 2010. I would hate to see them quit F1 now while they a...

Re: Best F1 car never to win a race? Worst F1 car to win a r
Best car not to win a race IMO is the 2004 BAR. Damn that thing was quick. As for the worst car to win, this is a tricky one but for me is it's the MP4-19 from 2004. That thing was so damn unreliable it must've been a laughing stock for the first half of the season, and yet in the hands of Kimi it w...

Re: Black Weekend Anniversary
Although Senna was the last to die in an F1 car, I believe two marshals have since lost their lives due to freak accidents. I know at least one of them was caused by a loose tyre going over the barriers.

Re: Forget Alonso - Poor Alguersuari!
Although I do feel sorry for the guy (No driver deserves that) I'm glad Lotus have Grosjean. I think he is performing better this year than Algersuari would have, although that's open to speculation.

Re: Can Lotus take 3rd this year?
Screw 3rd, I'm hoping for 1st or 2nd! Unlikely I know and as being a Merc fan I'd rather they be ahead but if Lotus can make it to the top of the constructors (Which they are definitely capable of doing so) Then good on them! I must say, after the Mercs, Lotus definitely have my favourite driver lin...

Re: Every race Vettel wins is boring
It's not the race which is boring, that can be exciting seeing drivers fight for other positions. I think it's just Vettels race which is boring, he just seems to win from pole all the time. A great way to win yes, but defo not the most exciting.

Re: McLaren - sandbagging thru P1 and 2?
About your Schumi comment, that is a bit harsh. I was watching the practice on F1 HD and Schumi got held up by one of the Caterhams during a flying lap, even the commentators said he couldn't get a decent lap in due to slower traffic. About your question, the team radio for both Hammy and Button cam...

I really do not believe that his confidence will be affected all that much, remember his crash in 2007? Yes he wasn't injured but a crash of that magnitude would rock the hardest of men.

After his absolutely stunning performance in Malaysia I will be defo keeping an eye on him now.

Re: Is Alonso currently the best driver in F1?
I'd say so yes. Even with a far inferior car he still manages to drag it round and put it on the top spot. Alonso is brilliant, but that's not to say other drivers aren't close or even matched to him.

I believe he has great potential, a fast man over a single lap and from what we've seen so far in races he's pretty quick. It just seems Lotus have a curse right now, Romain hasn't finished a race and Kimi has been beset by errors and penalties before the race. I cannot wait to see what Lotus can re...

Re: Team Fan or Driver Fan?
I would say both also.
I like and have supported many drivers from different teams such as Schumi, Raikkonen, Hakkinen, Senna etc.
But I would say out of all teams I am definitely a Mercedes man

Re: The Official Mercedes AMG F1 W03 thread
Even though Brawn has said the new Merc is not a race winner, I do believe that at least 1 race this season will have a Merc man on the top step. Be it Schumi or Rosberg. I really am hoping for Merc to beat Ferrari!
