Bring back V10s. Job done. Do i get a bonus?

Not unless you can say how exactly that would "save F1".

Alonso vs. Sainz would actually be interesting to see. Stroll vs. whoever he loses to, not so much.

Covalent

Sainz's only deserved move would be Red Bull as that team is still the best. But Checo is doing good enough to keep that seat his. Mercedes doesn't seem like the team to go but could again create wonders in 2026 with new regulations. Aston Martin is a good choice as McLaren isn't an option. Below A...

Read some news about Vettel potentially being in the running to replace Lewis. I hope that is untrue; he was past it by 2018 and the subsequent time at Aston Martin was already an embarrassment. Stroll should not be getting anywhere as close to a top-level driver as he did when partnered with Vette...

Would have enjoyed it a few years ago. Currently I doubt it will be much of a contest.

Yes it would be interesting mostly off track.

Looking at the ages posted by DOLO... The day Antonelli was born, Alonso was driving in the Friday free practice of the 2006 Turkish GP, which was the 14th race of the 18 race season where Alonso claimed his second WDC. As much as I like Alonso, I do think it is high time for him to retire. Seeing ...

Slowing down your rival is one thing, but Alonso behaved in an unpredictable and dangerous manner when he did it. The Race has a good article explaining the reasoning behind the panalty: https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/alonso-russell-penalty-australian-gp-stewards-defence/ So how can you slow do...

Missed that Alonso got a penalty til now. Very confused. Is the art of slowing down in a corner to reduce the car behind’s momentum dead? Or is it just stewards bashing Alonso for the sake of it again? Slowing down your rival is one thing, but Alonso behaved in an unpredictable and dangerous manner...

Woah........... As per Peter Windsor, he has heard from reliable sources that Perez has already signed a contract extension for next year. In a way it makes sense to retain the same lineup before regulations change. Hoping Perez is consistent through the year. 1772066600193020008 Translation: "And ...

These tears-offs are really a pain in the backside: It continually frustrates and baffles me that we know all the problems these stupid tear-offs cause, and nothing has been done.

Some would use the term "ran out of talent" (which I hate) for what Antonelli did, depending of course who the driver is.

1. The installation of charging points is indeed lagging somewhat, in particular for homes without a driveway or a designated parking spot. That problem does not have to be solved by 2035, because at that point only new vehicles will be EV only. The existing fleet will probably drive around until 2...

Curious how you know that the sensor was not faulty? Regardless, sensors do fail, and yet the rules do not provide any leway to penalize a car when they do. That is wrong. I don't, but no news has come out about it. I don't think it is wrong taking the human element out and instead relying on techn...

Yes I actually just saw this as well - he was moving when lights went out 100% should have been a penalty regardless of if he decided to stop momentarily again afterwards. That even makes it worse then, the sensors are not fit for purpose. All sensors have a +/- tolerance - just like everything els...

He came to a complete stop again after the initial movement. So no rolling start. I thought the post-race analysis on F1TV showed that he was moving when the lights went off?

Yes true

All this talk about Norris jumping the start seems to be the most exciting thing that happened during the race but it was before the race even got started.

It's one of the most controversial things that happened and controversial things tend to be discussed, don't you agree?

Covalent

You can just use both surely. It's a bit ridiculous not to penalise a driver everyone very clearly saw move just because the sensor said he didn't. Although I could definitely see an argument for not penalising the sort of thing Norris did as he gained no advantage and didn't do anything unsafe. so...

Prema and especially Bearman bounced back in a dramatic fashion, that kind of movement from one end of the field to the other (between consecutive race weekends) we don't see in F1.

So Perez, Hamilton, Leclerc and Piastri each have 3 votes to their name, I wonder if they are the same three people voting and if they can share their reasoning? Not gonna happen I guess.

How about an inversed DRS; instead of (or in addition to) opening the DRS flap when close enough on straights, have a mechanism for increasing wing angles when close enough on the twisty parts :D Reverting to 2009 in a way? I wonder whether that solution was ever properly evaluated. Although I stil...

Interesting data, thanks. Regarding Russell, I'm curious why the graph looks like George should be ahead, while your conclusion is that Lewis is (quite clearly) ahead? It's a running average so it shows that Russell had the upper hand early on but as his results have dropped off the lines cross and...
