It never cease to amaze me how ANY subject can end up being about Hamilton and 2021.

Declaring a driver that didn't participate in the race winner against his team mate is making a mockery of this thread. These votes of sympathy will affect and thereby devalue the accumulated results of this thread throughout the season. I therefore suggest that Sargeant be removed as a voting poss...

Siao7 & t2jd1967>You're talking about what feels right, and whos fault it is, but those arguments don't have any value in this situation. Formula 1 is big business, and just like it's the managements job to make unpleasant decisions about their employees in any other business, it is also the William...

Williams don’t have a spare chassis following Albon’s big shunt in practice. From the tweet below looks like they’ll be using Sargeant’s car for Albon for the rest of the weekend. https://x.com/phortonf1/status/1771095697401446462?s=46&t=ogYVTvP780Kb_NbBode63w Not sure how I feel about that. That's...

Is Appendix surgery the most frequent single cause of drivers missing races apart from injuries sustained whilst driving? Off the top of my head over the last 30 years I remember Hakkinen, Irvine, Albon and now Sainz missing a race due to the particularly pesky organ. Interestingly their replacemen...

Is Sainz fit to drive? That will be decided thursday, when he has to pass an FIA-test. This is from msn.com: On Thursday at Albert Park, the Spaniard is due for the FIA’s mandatory medical evaluations, which include a crucial driver extraction exercise. This test is quite demanding as it requires t...

A lot of non-F1 UK media (Sky News, The Sun, Daily Mai, Daily Telegraph) reporting that Horner’s accused has been suspended. Nothing from F1 media as far as I can see. Without some context/a statement from Red Bull, that is really not a good look for them (Red Bull). Red Bull is heading for a PR di...

Here's a thought to get this thread living up to its title - let's say Perez isn't able to repeat his result from the first race and ultimately ends up needing to be replaced. Meanwhile Jos has Max hotfooting it to Merc meaning Red Bull need not one, but two new drivers for 2025. Neither Tsunoda no...

A single race isn't much to base a judgement on, but the result in Bahrain give a few indications about changes in the pecking order compared with the end of 2023. Red Bull finishing 1-2 obviously raised their Elo-score, which was already on a different level compared with the rest of the teams. It'...

One would almost think that the lack of competition on the track for the WDC needs to be offset with as many scandals as possible.

In that case Formula 1 are doing very well indeed

With nearly 75% of the current grid yet to be confirmed for 2025, the performance of a lot of drivers across the season is going to have a huge bearing on who ends up where next year. With that in mind I thought I'd start a new series of threads. I probably won't do these after every race - aside f...

Beleriand_K

It's hard not to think that the 'Max could go to Mercedes' rumour isn't just another ploy to try and exert pressure on Horner to quit, but if it does actually have some substance and he does have a way out of the contract, it would be astonishing to see him go to Merc. I would also assume that Red ...

I feel like it depends on the quality of racing. I much preferred 2019 - 2020 to 2014 - 2016 for example. Purely because the racing was so much better. Excellent response. The real answer of course is "it depends." T he reality is that the majority of seasons are not incredible exciting from a spor...

I answered two driver fighting for the WDC, but basically the poll doesn't make sense. It's like asking if you want to see someone compete, or if you would rather have the winner declared in advance. The answer is quite obvious. What I want is a season like 2012, when the first seven races was won b...

We all talk about how strong Verstappen is compared with Perez, and the difference between them is a fact. But based on my Elo-score it's only the second biggest difference in strength between team mates at this moment. The biggest difference is between Albon and Sargeant. Unfortunately for Albon no...

I agree though, if Red Bull are dominant in the first third of the season, I expect there to be some regulation changes for 2025 to try and cut the advantage. They've won 32 of the last 34 races. I imagine Liberty, who love the 'show', are very concerned about that behind closed doors. No idea what...

Beleriand_K

I know we’re likely not going to be in for a very competitive season, but shouldn’t Red Bull be applauded for taking quite a big risk with a heavily revised concept? When was the last time a team took a dominant car and did not merely evolve its design? Yes -'that's why I called RB the best team ev...

Verstappen and Hamilton Verstappen is a no brainer, but with Hamilton I disagree with some of the other voters. I don't think Hamilton will loose concentration this season and just make it a write off before going to Ferrari. You don't become a multiple WDC without being passionate about winning eve...

Sainz to win against Leclerc, and Norris to win against Piastri. Leclerc and Sainz are performance wise just about equal with a slight advantage to Leclerc. But Hamiltons move to Ferrari threw a spanner in Leclercs future plan of being the #1 driver for Ferrari. Leclerc is undoubtably fast, but it a...

Beleriand_K

The biggest thing that holds Hamilton back in the list is that throughout his career he has almost always conceded too many higher race finishes or higher grid starts away to his teammates. It might have taken luck for Rosberg and Russell (but not Button) to outscore him but it wasn't luck that all...

According to my calculations Verstappen has 67.2 pct. change of winning the Bahrain GP. If that is correct any odds below 1/0.672=1.49 has negative value. Currently the highest offered odds on Verstappen are 1.40, which should not be accepted. It's no surprise that the odds on Verstappen has negativ...
