Re: New season, New Rules, Old Rosberg Argument!
The theory is that someone qualified enough to study engineering at Imperial might have an advantage when it comes to reading the car. An innate and detailed understanding of how, say, F1 suspension works could help find a more optimal setup. There are those who say Rosberg is indeed better at sett...

Re: Toto: Rosberg/Hamilton issues might force line-up change
What's so difficult to understand, the idea that BO is sitting in the Oval Office compiling a guest list is just ridiculous." Look, the idea is ridiculous, yes.

Re: Hamilton's Mercedes switch 'emotional' - Button
I can't believe this is still an issue with certain elements of the media and fans. Lewis was disillusioned with the McLaren set up. They had single-handedly lost him a championship. With bad strategy, unreliability repeated team errors and fussing with Jenson to get him up to Lewis's speed rather t...

One vote with perhaps a little explanation as to why that person gets your vote .
It really makes no sense having a poll if some vote for one (as I always do ) some two and some three.
I've always found it odd .

Good ....well it seems we've cleared that up and Lewis can get driver of the day whilst driving a Mercedes.
I also apologise if you have never questioned why lewis is getting votes in the driver of the day thread.
I must be confusing your posts with others.

Re: Button: it would be tougher for LH if he(JB) was in the
There is little difference between Button and Rosberg. Button's lack of speed is evened out by Rosberg's poor racecraft. Lewis would still be triple world champion as long as the Mercedes team operated the same , now if Whitmarsh was at the helm I'm not so sure as he had a tendency to faff about ge...
