The old Marko/Red Bull head games begin. They are happy to treat drivers in any manner they wish but as soon as they don't get their way they.................

But why did Renault offer Dan so much money? Surely they could have got him for less? They said they weren't interested in getting Alonso back until they could give him a decent car - so why are they paying top dollar for a driver now? In one swoop they've increased that to $25m a year. A 212% incr...

I'd be quite interested to hear your views on Senna and the number of incidents he was involved in. Possibly just another driver with subpar overtaking skills? A thug who made his overtakes work by fear and intimidation? Luckily, Ricciardo is nothing like that. He overcooks his favorite divebomb mo...

Think someone has told ric he is the worlds best overtaker and he believed it. Going by the last race with vettel he aint. I dont mind someone having a go like above but the monaco one was dodgy at best and he didnt make either move stick with vettel in spain, and could have caused an accident if v...

Makes me so happy it's reached 5 pages. Vettels changed his tune. Nuff said

Thank you all for your respectful debate on this topic

Sure, but wouldn't you think a driver of his calibre would refrain from doing that on live television until he has a chance to do just that. He just comes off looking like a bit of a sugarplum.

Bizarre comments really. It was clean move. Didn't out brake himself, didn't run wide, didn't touch Vettel.

Kyvat's response was perfect - "that's racing"

Bit of a return to being a sook when things are going his way.

Nico is soooo dodgy

No. Channel 10 has reported they'll be in court tonight and if no resolution they reconvene in the morning (Saturday). This is so bizarre!

F1 app is not working properly. All the features associated with paid subscription not working. Still states Purchase Now and then you click on it and it states Subscription active. Typical s&@t!

Just being an Aussie is enough for me. How could you not support your countryman? It's just brilliant that he happens to be such a great ambassador for sporting stars in general and he kicks ar$e on track!

Anyway Mercedes look to have the championships in the bag given how mighty they already look. Hope a couple of other teams have something in the locker, or at least can be closer to them than in 2014. Lewis Hamilton must think all his christmases have come early again. Given its only the first 4 ho...

C'mon guys, this is sensationalist journalism. He does not say time to move aside, or I want Button out. His quote is: "If I am not mistaken, Jenson has been in F1 for 15 seasons," Grosjean said. "I'm sorry if he goes, but we need fresh blood." And it is 100% true. It doesn't mean he is not good eno...

backdoc

That seems like a much better season!

Wow, the Vettel and Red Bull relationship has come apart like a cheap suit in record time. Mateschitz sounds like a jilted lover, Newey got the hell out of Dodge because he's apparently out of design ideas, and Vettel risks tarnishing his legacy if he doesn't improve next season. Its looking more a...

I'm glad that Marquez has won, but maybe there wasn't a thread because the first time those of us without BT Sports get to see the race is tomorrow evening? I know it was pretty much a sure thing, but spoilers, man. Oh sorry. We get it free in Oz. We used to get Quali and Moto2 & 3 as well but just...

Didn't see a thread for this so thought it warrants a mention. Great race in Motegi, Japan today. Marc Marquez finishes 2nd behind Lorenzo who won by about 3 seconds. Great race and Rossi was strong finishing 3rd :thumbup: . Marc becomes the youngest person to win consecutive premier class world tit...

I'm not sure if this has been posted already but some interesting reading from former F1 doc, Gary Hartstein: http://formerf1doc.wordpress.com/2014/1 ... al-injury/

Doesn't appear to be very good news at all

I want to make an observation here. They got him out of the car very fast for a head injury, normally in the situation of a head injury it takes a while to remove the driver but not in this case. I fear that was only the result of the severity of his injuries. I'm seriously concerned about Jules. I...

I also fall into the category of reading the forum for years before signing up in 2006. I started following in 2000.

It was definitely boxing. Just wanted to make sure we were referring to the same audio clip. I recall it watching the race as I was surprised Seb was going through his tyres so fast. As an Aussie slash Webber slash Ricciardo fan I have been so used to Webber destroying his tyres before Seb that it j...

I believe it's the new moon. Only happens every 5th year for people with the initials SV. Bummer for Seb really, but I blame red bull for giving him the drive in 2009.

bit here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_1NsndBBRFU but heard more on the sky broadcast Have I solved it?

Also just wanted to say, I didn't hear it, and I don't speak German, but I really wish I was in a position to help.

Ridiculous or not, Redbull is getting more attention at the moment because of RIC. If it was swapped with another grid driver...say Massa I argue it wouldnt have the same coverage. It's got nothing to do with DR's personality. It's Vettels. Everyone is hanging to see him come unstuck, and DR is del...

I may be calling this early, but I suspect my friend, you could be the winner of the most ridiculous thread for 2014; and on Planet F1 forum, that is quite some feat!

I saw both at Melbourne and the Porsches sounded way better I thought and a touch louder. Don't think you can really compare a race prepped NA flat 6 with a turbo V6.
