I guess that's what you saw that he unfairly looked to highlight your friends post, some of us just look to post as individuals, why would he look to overlook and not criticise my post, we are not friends.. Hey Siao did you know we are friends? Observation, why get involved, why look to tell anothe...

I'm thinking that Antonelli has a very solid prospect for the WDC this year.

EPROM

All British podium - TURN OFF SKY SPORTS NOW FAST Yea but at least Crofty isn't here. The BBC will go nuts about this for years on end about this though and claim how amazing British drivers are and probably half ignore the circumstances as to why Antonelli wasn't there. Why would the BBC go nuts? ...

Great lap by Hamilton. You have to wonder where Leclerc's head is at the moment. The car certainly looks quick enough. Leclerc will never be world champion, I think that must be pretty clear by now. Leclerc's over-exuberance in quallies has been the substance of threads here for several years. He c...

Common sense youd say is how do you get a penalty foe speeding without ever speeding. Simply not logical and the measurement method is so typical of F1 its not surprising at all Realistically they will investigate themselves and find themselves to be right, too messy to clear it up. Many measuremen...

Where on earth did the 2 seconds come from? I don't remember many upgrades giving as much as 2 seconds during a season... May be they don't mean 2 seconds per lap, nor a single race, but a total of 2 seconds for the 17 remaining GP... That said, it's not an upgrade, it' a redesign. Which means they...

Eventful! Great race by Antonelli, he is a force so far. What a shame that Ferrari's super-launches have been curbed, it would have made the last start interesting. I was watching a video about the pit-lane incidents, they got fines for going 60.1km/h... IThis is because they measure the time it ta...

Based on the FIA’s ADUO assessment, Red Bull appears to have the strongest ICU component. But that does not mean its (it might be) the strongest overall power unit, because the FIA’s assessment is not a full power unit ranking — it does not fully capture battery deployment, harvesting, battery effi...

Bernie Collins made a couple of interesting points re the pit lane speeding …. Monaco is unique in that the cars at point of pit entry are going slightly slower than the actual pit lane speed limit. Therefore when they hit the speed lane limiter button the car actually accelerates up to that speed ...

She thinks no end of herself by doing this & also snubbing Martin Brundle by ignoring him point blank... 2063920308365455478 That's just sooooo funny - Martin Brundle getting ignored/snubbed by the "famous" folks on the grid who don't know (or care) what his job is. I frankly have little respect fo...

I don't understand how a driver of Perez' experience can accumulate so many stupid mistakes. As Cadillac, I would extremely annoyed that he binned this unique chance of valuable points. Given how Bottas struggles to get up to speed, I wonder whether Cadillac would have been better off with two youn...

This - except for Antonelli so far - is a race of failures.

How do these not-yet-served penalties work if they don't actually restart the race?

Just watched the 1974 Monaco GP again - with cars/drivers managing overtakes in four different places of the track. Regazzoni (Ferrari) spinning in a three-way fight for the lead. Peterson (Lotus) overtaking Lauda (Ferrari) for lead with a breathtaking manoeuvre before the tunnel. Altogether, a lot...

EPROM

To be clear, When I say I’d like more overtaking than there has been the last decade, that is on balance – looking at the period as a whole and not necessarily individual races. I recognize that there have also been races with DRS where they got the balance to far the other way – resulting in far t...

EPROM

So, what is your problem then that I had a follow-up question on your challenging? I really don't get what your problem here is. I am not going to repeat the several months' long discussion about "skillful overtaking" without being able to provide a single example. The "exceptional" was added rathe...

EPROM

Did I write you shouldn't challenge me? ;-) I am not worried at all. If there is no measure of skill, then claiming that "skillful overtaking" should be the standard of overtaking in F1 - the recurrent claim to which I responded - does not make much sense as a guideline for new regs or judging regs...

EPROM

Technically, before DRS, cars had no moving aerodynamics at all. So it is a bit of a misnomer. I think they did, they had the front moveable wing before DRS for a couple of seasons, didn't they? The driver had to select which position to use. They did. I have absolutely no memory of this at the tim...

EPROM

That being the case why are you watching Sky and Crofty, for my part I have Sky Sports anyway for the football etc, so I wouldn't want to be paying extra for F1 TV which I believe we don't have access to anyway in the UK. Poker, I'm convinced that you do not read posts very carefully before you rep...

EPROM

Yeah I can remember the Americans being frustrated by the poor coverage they were getting and being somewhat envious of what we were getting across the pond, they get what we are getting but some are still not happy it seems. I'm actually happy - because I no longer feed the need to watch Sky's fee...

Better late than never... very busy at work and in my social life right now, to the point where I haven't even watched anything from Canada and had to go out my way to fit the 500 in. Things will hopefully settle down for a double update in the Monaco poll. Yeah, sometimes it is just crazy. Good lu...

I believe it was via the Speed Channel (up until circa 2012?), it wasn't non-existent. And Speed was on cable, so not free, I don't think they were complaining that it wasn't free anymore. Maybe our fellow forumers form the US can confirm though. I didnt say there wasnt a broadcast, I referred to t...

EPROM

So it is better than DRS and we should be happy ? Not if you don't care for cars being able to overtake one another I guess. and we go in circles again... That's what F1 tends to do without the overtaking aids. I am pretty sure that kind of going around in circles is something that all forms of tra...

EPROM

Yes I've just noticed it's yet another American complaining, I wish they would put their hands in their pockets rather than cheaply piggy backing off a British broadcast then I would no longer have to hear about British bias. Kind of funny that before they had access to Sky F1 broadcast viewership ...

Not according to my numbers. Well, please do post them - and your analysis. A pointer might be 41-0 in qualifying for Alonso that just happened by chance I guess, Alonso is running at 0.5s quicker this season the biggest gap he's achieved against Stroll. Let's not gaslight here that I'm supporting ...

Well it wouldn't be us that are complaining about bias coverage, it's seems to be a problem for some others. Would be great for the yanks to get their own broadcast, Id be able to laugh at them mispronouncing the name of every single foreign driver and watch 80% of the race talking about cadillac a...

A very easy and clear question: What is the "pinnacle of motorsports" in your opinion? Which series, which championship? Can you provide a clear answer?

I've checked the lap times Russell was clear of the power boost zone for 5 laps and the 2 of them were posting identical times, then Russell made his mistake giving Antonelli the lead, Antonelli then posted 2 laps 4 tenths quicker than Russell taking him out of the power boost zone but then immedia...

EPROM

What is the "pinnacle of motorsports" in your opinion? In my view, the pinnacle of motorsports is that category that is the most demanding from its drivers. That would quite obviously include fast cars, but more importantly cars where the very best can make a difference. And a step up from other ca...

What's wrong with the British broadcaster talking up the British drivers? The old nugget British bias. Obviously the British commentators, working to create a product for the British audience are going to have some degree of bias (at least in terms of excitement) for the British bias.

The podium looks to be rather solidified now (again, barring mechanical failure). Nice leap by the track worker.
