At least now he's in a team with heart and soul and not that marketing ploy run by a drinking company.

"All Alonso cares about is the title" well that's true for every driver. Everyone wants to win (maybe not Irvine in his Ferrari days :P ). But he could have a better chance of development starting from where Ferrari is now (best of the rest) than from the mess McLaren is now. Of course, things chang...

I'm worried that the Ferrari PU may not have a whole lot of room for improvement. When Marmorini was fired last year, he accused Tombazis for the failure of last year's car because Tombazis insisted on having a very compact PU which ended up underpowered compared to the competition. So it may very w...

Merc doesn't need him right now when they have Hamilton. He could be the next Marc Márquez, though.

I think he did great in last race. People are comparing him to Schumacher already, HOWEVER it must be said that, while Schumacher only won with Ferrari in his 7th GP, there was the fact the 1996 Ferrari wasn't exactly good, and largely inferior to the Williams. The gap between Ferrari and Mercedes t...

I was pleased with his race. Terrible luck, but showed similar pace to Vettel and could've finished even higher with a better starting position. I heard from journos that this is the first car with Allison influence in it, and it shows, as he was responsible for the tire-saving Lotuses of previous y...

So as a Williams Fan, i have to say BOO HOO! So youre not top dog any more! Thats life, no once can sustain to be at the top indefinetly, you go through peaks and troughs... and youre in a bit of a trough... Sure its tough seeing your team slip futher and further away from the front... eventually g...

Alonso's 5th place didn't reflect their real pace. Alonso should've finished 8th or 9th, but a number of cars faster than his had a lot of problems (Hamilton, Vettel and Massa retired, Bottas crashed when he was right behind Alonso, etc.). The truth is that, ATM, the F14T is a turd. And, for those w...

Wow, there's a bug on the windscreen and it's time to pull the ejection handle? Yes, both Renault and Red Bull have problems, but the essence of Formula One is to push the limits and being safe and conservative would not get you past qualifying. And as anyone who has ever been involved in racing, s...

Kimi is a genius. If he's out due to injury, Lotus will still have to pay him for the races he missed. And, if they start complaining, he may remind them that his pain was only aggravated because the team fit his seat badly during Singapore practice. Pure gold, and a punch to the face of these crooks.

Massa trying to raise his game. How surprising.

Pole2Win

Personally, if I was sitting on a great big mound of money already and I had the cahnce of a car that could win races I'd do it for free and turn up a day early for every GP. But that's just me. As for Perez, I'll believe it when I see it, especially bearing in mind that Vodaphone are out of the ga...

Pole2Win

Why can't it be a combination of both? Lotus have frozen him out in terms of car development for next year which makes sense, but could it be kimi just doesn't care enough anymore to put in solid efforts? He could be well and truly over it for this season and simply just going through the motions. ...

Pole2Win

The truth is Massa's butthurt because Ferrari didn't give him a chance after 2009 year. Alonso is better anyway since, despite qualifying lower sometimes, he always makes up for it, while Massa usually goes backwards and does battle with Saubers and Force Indias in a clearly superior car. I never fe...

I really doubt Vettel is so much better than everyone else on the grid, including Alonso who beat the previous F1 superstar twice. This can only mean Webber is crap, and unworthy of the seat he has. On top of that, he's already 37, and in decline.

Pole2Win

Venezuelan journalist reported on Twitter that Maldonado to Lotus is a done deal. So Hulk may try to go back to Force India, because Alonso's deal with McLaren is for 2015, not now.

IMO Permane is stirring this up even further. Speaks of death threat, yet no screen cap of the tweets to expose the abuser? Then he deletes his tweets, probably because there were no death threats to begin with?

Not saying all Kimi fans are saints but something's very fishy here.

Pole2Win

Funny how people pick on Kimi for losing to Grosjean in quali yet I see no mention of how Alonso started losing to Massa in quali after Massa got the boot from Ferrari, and Alonso doesn't even have the tire change excuse to back him up.

Pole2Win

Here in Brazil there are way too many people putting Vettel on a pedestal. I disagree for a few reasons. - Youngest driver to score a point in F1: Not an impressive feat when you remember the car he was driving was the third best on the grid that year, and he finished 8th which was the last place to...

Pole2Win

I like drivers who sound human. Alonso throws his tantrums and Kimi shows annoyance at his redundant engineer. That's humanity. Not like PR bots such as Hamilton and Vettel.

Pole2Win

Sometimes Kimi fans (and I'm one of them!) make me want to tear my hair out! The amount of snide comments and jibes aimed at Lotus since his Ferrari move was announced has been unreal! The bitterness from some people is a lot worse than the supposed bitterness of Lotus. To give a quote like this wi...

Grosjean is a pay driver. He brings money from Total oil company to the team.

Funny to see Alonso fans trying to justify it. I don't even need to be able to speak Italian to know by the video that was posted a few pages ago that he sounded very disappointed with the team, even throwing an ironic "mamma mia" into it. The truth is, Alonso always says this kind of things when he...

Raikkonen didn't work at Ferrari once. None of the main players who were there in 2009 have left so I don't see how him going there would work a second time tbh. He should stay where he has a bit of freedom and that's Lotus. You sure? Since 2009 they fired Aldo Costa and hired Pat Fry and James All...

Worse than Webber? Impossible! Webber is driving really bad this season IMO.

I think he'll be closer to Vettel than Webber is but not beat him.

Pole2Win

Piket, doesn't it make the alarm bells ring or is it just me? Otherwise I would had dismissed the news directly and laughed at them, but to see a reporter claim it as a fact... that's something I'm not used to seeing :? However it started a huge process in me, first I was absolutely sure that if Ki...

Pole2Win

If Kimi stays at Lotus next year he will regret it. When your employer has difficulties paying you and you are a top notch employee you should move on. I guess there is no other place he'd want to go, but Mclaren and Ferrari are still possibilities. If Massa underperforms the door will be open and ...

Pole2Win

I would like to add 2009 to the list. Red Bull was the best car over the course of the season. Brawn was only better during Jenson's wins IMO.

Pole2Win

I'm late to the party but I'd say the Williams and Benetton were evenly matched in 1994. True the Benetton had illegal systems but it's not clear if and when the systems were used that season. The race in Brazil was won by Schumacher because of the removal of a filter in the refuelling machine which...

1986 Williams best car, Prost won in McLaren.

Pole2Win

Given his current form I'd bet money on him not winning his 10th race. His last good chance was at Silverstone and due to yet another of his bad starts he managed to get tangled with Grosjean (again), lost a lot of places and time, and wasn't in place to inherit Vettel's win when he needed to.

Now that would be amazing. Even though the WEC is a stillborn championship IMO.

Not interested in another pairing Kimi-Massa. Massa is long past his best and should be sacked. The ultimate test, Alonso and Kimi, is more interesting. Anyway it's quite funny to see some people who demonized Ferrari for the "Santander connection" now are quite happy with the move... How times chan...

Adrian Newey's brain.

Or at least make aero so restricted that Newey is forced to leave anyways.

Not buying into the Ferrari rumours anymore... Joe Saward had a good write up in his blog yesterday with convincing arguments against the move. Alonso-Ferrari relationship is shaken but I don't think he's considering leaving and Ferrari would be crazy to let him go, basically the only part of the te...

He is a part of the best combo on the grid ATM, how much of it is due to the car is up to speculation, I don't think Webber's performance is a good way to measure it because frankly Webber doesn't give a damn anymore after he announced his departure. However this championship is a farce after Pirell...

I am a massive Lewis Hamilton fan but after watching today's grand prix, I have to admit that Sebastian Vettel is by far the best driver on the grid. The way he got past Lewis in less than 3 corners and nobody got within a mile of him from then, while his teammate couldn't get past Rosberg speaks v...
