Find it difficult to get excited about Aston Martin doing well tbh, I seriously doubt that they will be able to maintain any kind of development on the car from what we've seen historically from them and if they're to be the team closest to Red Bull then pretty much we'll be seeing 2011/2014 levels...

Skynyrd

He knows perfectly well that both my and his posts were about FA. I made my point about FA, raising the question that what was so specially different and uncommon about him in that particular regard as compared to other drivers, and he specifically replied on that: "There are drivers that are notor...

Skynyrd

you really are obsessed. Nevermind, i'm not wasting more time with you. I expect you'll answer just to get in the last word so kuddos to you.

Skynyrd

Missing what point exactly? Some armchair "experts" (like your own self) speculate how Alonso's ability to spot Vettel behind himself going wide and exceeding the track limits is one of his unique qualities that is so uncommon in F1 racing and that makes him so great and better than others in the r...

1000 tasks all drivers can do, but 1001 - only Fernando ;) You said it not me...funny how you have to center it in FA when I didn't even mention him. I was just pointing out to Prema that keeping track of the car behind you is not an easy task and that not all F1 drivers achieve the same results do...

Skynyrd

I don't see what it would be so extraordinary great about having a quick look at your back mirror to check wether the guy who you know that has been following you for that many laps , is going wide at that spot (and thus breaking the rules that you have been warned about 2 times already), and then ...

I think FA's interview on Spanish TV right after the race says it all. He said it was tough fight where he did all he could but that SV overtaking him was inevitable...it didn't really mater if it was a legal move or not becuase it would have been on any corner as there was no way he was keeping the...

http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/114698 Not every often you hear riders say they were scared during a race. Will this affect him all the time when it's damp/wet? I worry about Lorenzo, his confidence is slowly getting shot to threads We'll, there is some poetic justice to it, he always c...

Skynyrd

I could almost feel sorry for KR...he's being utterly demolished by FA this season.

It's so frustrating watching FA's talent go to waste in Ferrari. He deserves much more than only 2 WDC but the way things are going that might be all he ever wins...

Skynyrd

See this is where your bias shows. I only took one sample (2013) as I didn't want to go through them all but it shows my point just fine. Kimi you say is " Often again outqualified by Grosjean" Whereas Alonso that year "Dominates Massa". Well in both Kimi and Fernando outqualified their teammates 1...

Skynyrd

During the race the MGU-K system failed in both cars at about the same time. It's role is to harvest energy, and that is done by applying additional braking force at the rear wheels. When you lose some braking force at the rear wheels, the accepted solution is to adjust the front-to-rear braking ba...

Skynyrd

Watching the race live PdLR pointed out two interesting facts: 1. Through team radio Mercedes informed that LH's braking bias was rear ended. More so than Nico's at least. 2. The brake failure happened shortly after LH's pit stop in a crucial moment of the race where Lewis probably had the one chanc...

Nice race? This track is unbearable. What's fun of watching cars run around a track where any relevant overtaking is practically impossible?

"We struggled with the start and did not make any places on the first corner and we were stuck in traffic for 90 per cent of the race." I don't know how this is anyone but Alonso's shortcoming. "We struggled with the start" - Well, he needs to learn from Kimi who made an excellent start "were stuck...

Ferrari next year won't disappoint...they'll manage to make a worse car than the F14T

Stoner managed to tame it but then he IS better than Vale Bases on what? Vale's 9 WC vs Casey's 2? Oh thats right, he won with Ducati, that must count as 10 WC all by itself... Stoner out there on his own Again, based on what exactly? Stoner/Marquez: can't tell because don't know how much is down t...

Skynyrd

Someone needs to remind Alonso how he won WC in 2005 and 2006 :lol: Vettel has been dominating F1 like Schumacher with Ferrari days. You need a good car and a happy driver. What Vettel has already achieved Alonso will not do till his career so I think he is just sour about it. 1. Renault in 2005 an...

this radio transcript is not going to help much in understanding of that video, but if the video is in FP2, than that 'gremlin' with the loss of power happened not once http://www.f1fanatic.co.uk/2014/04/23/2014-chinese-grand-prix-team-radio-transcript/#2 Lap 2.

Skynyrd

Again, he and Mark Webber were the only drivers to drive the dominant Red Bulls during the last technical era. We can only speculate on what other drivers would have done in them. The drivers themselves seem to believe that the car was really the star of that era, not Vettel. You can call it jealou...

I know this isn't about Kimi but it just goes to show how car setup is crucial for almost everyone: http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/113597 I hope Kimi gets his issues fixed fairly soon as he can't really afford another weekend like the last one Interesting. So, basically Vettel's issue ...

Look at about 4.25-4.35 Now now, don't you know that "I have no power" are just excuses and what we saw in China is the real difference between Fernando and Kimi? Someone ...

Skynyrd

Another weekend and another litany of excuses from Kimi's most ardent fans. I am sure if you'd ask Kimi privately...I'd almost guarantee you he'd be honest and tell you point blank that he's getting his as.s handed to him by Fernando. Can Kimi turn it around? Sure, maybe...but enough of the "steeri...

To me the worst year and the biggest blemish on his record is 2004 where he was outclassed by JT during the first half of the season.

The car was capable of fifth, as Red Bull showed. So he started fifth, and would have been lucky to finish fourth. Oh?

Skynyrd

I'm sure we can all find quotes to support the drivers we like - but Alonso still has to account for 2007... Of course he has some good excuses, but at the end of the day he failed in the psychological war. So did Lewis - but that doesn't change Alonso's failure. 100% correct. These kind of quotes ...

Skynyrd

If anyone was at fault it should be FA because he didn't see Massa and drove into him. Whatever Massa did, it is FA's responsibility to make sure there is no car alongside him before he starts squeezing DR to his right. But again, there was no ill intention, no dangerous swerving from FA and he didn...

Kudos to all team directors...they let their boys battle it out on track. Nice to see that.

Pity Mercedes are so far ahead...this could have been a much funner season.

I'd love to read Fiki's take on today's race. I mean with all the pushing out of track we've seen today, many among team mates I might add, I'm still not sure why half the grid wasn't penalized and why half the team directors aren't frothing at the mouth. This was one of the best races I've seen in ...
