Hamda Al Qubaisi won race 8 in the UAE F4 series round 2 at Yas Marina from 4th on the grid. Russian Kiril Smal came 2nd. She now has 1 win & 3 more podiums from the 8 races so far. The next round is back at Dubai Autodrome next weekend where the Asian F3 series will hold its first races of 2021. S...

I'm cynical Dolo Many other international talent competitions in other fields pressurise competitors to sign management contracts which not only bind them to pay a percentage of future income but also give 'control' of career path, sometimes for many years. The winners of these competitions somehow...

I do think people are over using Russells race to undermine Hamiltons position. Russell had an absolute belter, make no mistake, BUT it was one race. Bottas has on occasion beaten Hamilton over a race. To suggest that Russell is a potential Hamilton replacement we would need to know that he could do...

I was pleased to hear about de Silvestro, I always liked her and after Danica she is probably the most competitive female driver off the last few years.

So wen do you feel the decline actually started? They were 3rd in the WCC in '14-'15 which seems a long time ago now. Since winning in '97 they had been a bit up and down but were 2nd in '02 and '03. So in terms of a continuing decline I guess you have to go from '16 but their points haul has been o...

I wouldn't single out an individual but I do wonder what people think the key events and decisions are that led to their downfall.

There's some interesting battles ahead for sure. Mercedes - Bottas 3.0, 4.0, 4.1 - they're all the same. Meh.

Just saw the news on Sidorkova. It's a good step as she's done national F4 but has also dipped into Rally and tin-tops. She did Spanish F4 in 2019 along with other W series drivers Nerea Marti and Belen Garcia. Between them they pretty much filled the bottom of the table.

DOLOMITE

She also made quite outspoken observation about W Series "“But I think it will showcase some female talent but I honestly don’t think that the best female talent is doing the W Series, you know you’ve got Tatiana (Calderón) and Sophia (Flörsch), people who have said ‘no we are not going to be segre...

That story of Kimiainen is so disheartening. OK it's in the past but not that long ago. At least the team took a better position on it by the sounds of it. What a depressing experience though.

DOLOMITE, your records are more complete than mine; which other drivers, aside from those who retired as WDC, never won after their last title? Villeneuve is the only one I can think of. Possibly Piquet? Even Mansell won again despite never having a full time F1 drive after 1992. Thank to the distr...

I see the Montoya/Ralf comparisons a lot like the Kubica/Heidfeld comparison. People say A was overrated because he only narrowly beat B, when I'd argue B was underrated because he came very close to A. That's interesting. I rate Montoya pretty high so I certainly think that fact that Ralf was clos...

I'm looking at it as Hamilton has the seat, they just havent agreed terms. I don't know how much Russell's run will affect discussions, Toto has said its irrelevant. It's inconceivable that Hamilton would go somewhere else or take a sabbatical so just a question of terms. My guess is its more about ...

DOLOMITE

I voted for Ralf -- not because I think he's the best on that list, but because I think he's frequently written off as a useless scrub, which was definitely not the case. Definitely. If people can avoid measuring him against his brother and instead look at what he managed to do alongside some prett...

Thanks for the responses. Some names I expected, some I didn't. There's a definite split of names who had a full career in F1 and didn't make the mark people felt they could have done, and drivers whose career's were too short and deserved more time. In that respect my votes go to Heidfeld in the fi...
