3rd place for Chadwick in Nxt, her first podium, and Abbi Pulling wins a race in British F4 (albeit reversed grid pole).

I did wonder if that was the case with Pulling, Chadwick third on an oval I believe, Danica Patrick had all her major success on ovals, I'm not sure if that's a pattern.

Every opportunity they get. It's hard to take you seriously. You haven't watched your Daughter-in-law race and win a Championship against men. How did she manage that if she was prevented from having fair races? She hit back and didn't take the fairy cakes lightly. Which can be more simply seen as ...

I read that as Zhou being out of a seat at Sauber and is now looking for another seat with his pot of gold.

1786718744732913781 Did this test take place already? Would be curious to know how they stacked up next to each other. I did read somewhere both of them were on different programs. Schumacher was handed a test on a long hard tyre run to test tyre deg whereas Antonelli had other programs including q...

Supposedly, Sainz's opportunity to go over to red Bull is over as Red Bull are wanting to renew Perez's contract. The Mercedes offer still stands but it's for 1 year as Mercedes want Antonelli to eventually drive for them. The only long term deal is from Sauber but they've given him till Monaco Gra...

Sainz was 3.165 seconds behind Verstappen on lap 4 and he gradually cut that gap to 2.629 seconds on lap 8 before the virtual safety car was deployed. These laps are the only time both were on the same tyres and in clean air, after that it becomes unclear as strategies diverge. Binotto and Sainz bo...

Leclerc put on a brand new set of C4s against Bottas on 35 lap old C3s and gained zero time. I doubt Bottas is any quicker than even 2019 Vettel over a race distance. The problem was very simple, the Ferrari was crap on race pace. It was rubbish on the C4 tyres if the Ferrari was crap on race pace ...

I claim? its an objective fact VER starts the corner far far from the racing line, and bringing in same speed as Lew who is on the racing line. Ver decided to crash, and you want Lewis to avoid it. Look, I think we are going way off topic now so I will not respond to it here. You stated your positi...

I know why Magnussen was penalised, but I would be very grateful if you could show where the regulations say what you conclude; that a driver has no right to be there. And just to make my point even clearer: there is a significant difference between what the regulations actually state, and the guid...

A lucky one and largely thanks to Alonso's help defending against Lewis whereas Russell won the races he did on his own merit, outqualifying and outracing Lewis in the same car both times. I agree with you that Alonso (or Lewis) not winning for a while doesn't affect their legacy (for me) but then ...

@pokerman I admire your passion and tenacity. I have no idea how you do it but it must be really tiring to follow Lewis and see/watch people questioning his legacy at every opportunity or holding him to the highest standard or find faults even when there are none. Give it a few years and this same ...

Interesting picture; it shows not only why it is never wise to turn in when there is a car alongside on your inside, but it also shows why: because it also shows who benefitted from the outcome. (Hint, it's the car near where the lines meet. ;) ) Verstappen benefitted with the penalty no less, the ...

Can you show me where the regulations say a driver has no right to be there? My copy may have a page missing, but somehow I doubt it... That's why KMag got penalised maybe you need a refresher course. I know why Magnussen was penalised, but I would be very grateful if you could show where the regul...

Now you've stepped into the ring KMag was recently penalised for doing exactly the same thing to Sargeant, behind at the first apex no right to be where he was at the next part of the chicane, thems the rules. https://i.ibb.co/dpnWfXB/N-vtelen-13.jpg Interesting picture; it shows not only why it is...

First of all Silverstone was red flagged because of the Zhou crash and was restarted on lap 3. Sainz had a 1.365s lead on lap 4, on lap 8 Verstappen was in DRS range, the following lap Sainz made his mistake and let Verstappen past, so this Verstappen being unable to pass Sainz is a bit false as so...

pokerman

Those early laps in clear air you talk about in Canada:- Lap 1 Verstappen to Sainz 1.764s Lap 8 Verstappen to Sainz 2.629s Sainz was unable to get within DRS unlike Verstappen with Sainz at Silverstone which forced the error from Sainz. You know this is misleading. Compare the lap times they were d...

Vettel was being dropped by Bottas at a rate of 1 second per lap on C4s, so even if Ferrari looked “quicker” on Friday, evidently it did not translate to Sunday. Which wouldn't have happened to the faster Ferrari driver especially if he had qualified on pole plus you're only talking about 10 laps o...

Do they bump them in qualifying as well. Every opportunity they get. It's hard to take you seriously. I have actually observed this behavior at kart tracks. Not so much in qualifying, although if the format is qualifying races then yes, but I have certainly seen girls (usually the only one on track...

Ocon won a race, so you're looking to back up the original post, me personally I don't think Alonso not winning a race in a decade affects his legacy beyond not being able to win more titles leaving him on just two.

In Canada 2022 there were only a few laps early on when both Sainz and Verstappen were on the same tyres in clear air and in that time Sainz closed the gap to Verstappen by a small amount. Remembering that Sainz was almost always the slower Ferrari driver in 2022 it's reasonable to hold the opinion...

No he was faster in qualifying as well the practice sessions just showing how he was dominating the weekend he was favourite to win the race. Are we talking just single laps from practice sessions? Or long run data? Because if it's just single laps, no one is really questioning the idea that Lecler...

Yep, I'd agree with that as well. Ocon has a sizable body of work in F1 at this point, and the vast majority of it points to less than optimal teamwork. The only teammate he didn't fall out with was Ricciardo, and that was probably just because Ricciardo had him firmly in hand in terms of pace. Gas...

No, why would I do that? Just checking it seemed with the present Mercedes it's little more than being able to drive around problems. That is over 8 years ago. Are you seriously arguing that the situation is even remotely comparable? No I'm talking about today's Mercedes, what you see is struggling...
