Re: Which things won't make a return to F1?

I really miss to see drivers drove their cars with full-throttle in pit-lane. Guess for safety concern, it will never return to F1 (ever).

Also, I miss F1 GP at Adelaide, guess it will never return there.

Re: 2016 Malaysian Grand Prix Thread

people, why does this year's Malaysian F1 GP start at 15:00 local time? I thought the race should start at 16:00.

apologize for my short memory, but the race did start at 16:00 last year, didn't it? :?

Re: Does the grid penalties system work?

Just an extreme thinking: Each driver still receives 5 engines per season. When a driver runs out of his 5 allocated engines before the end of the season, thus must have the sixth one, then he will receive 10-grid penalties in ALL remaining races, so not just 1 time penalty. In-case a driver must ha...

I've enjoyed F1 since 1988, and I've seen many circuits leave and/or replace with new ones. Somehow, if my memory serves me right, I have never seen any circuit that: 1. Lap time is under 60 seconds, or 2. Lap time is over 120 seconds (2 minutes) So the question is: is there actually a regulation by...
