Ah, so its just prejudice, rather than you not liking them spending money on the sport. This is no different to how Mercedes re-entered the sport as a racing team. In 2010, they had no recent history of racing in F1, only in being an engine supplier to F1 teams. I'm sure you can see the difference....

Those will do no nothing but buy success with tons of money and sign the best engineers for their own teams, I can see it If they can do that, more power to them. But it's not so easy as you make it sound. I'm not sure I like the idea of a state-sponsored F1 team, but it has nothing to do with fear...

Paul Ricard's problem is that its too close to Monaco

Very impressed with Dovizioso in these last two races. He is at the absolute peak of his career. Absolutely shocking result from both official Yamahas, I dont understand the crazy ups and downs from the different teams this year. One race you have yamahas dominating, the hondas being slow, and anot...

Great for him, I hope Toyota will bring it home this year. They kind of deserve it after last year. Now, I would like to see: - the W08 lapping in anger at Le Mans and see how fast it is - Hamilton/Alonso/Vettel taking the TS050 to the Le Mans track (after extensive practice) to know if there is mo...

He would probably run circles around Stroll, but he doesnt have a millionaire dad so it doesnt matter.

Him being 18 years old is not so much of an excuse, just look at Max. You're either ready/talented for F1 or you aren't, be 18, 20 or 25 years old. Unless he improves a lot (or williams keep on willing to "sell" the seat for lots of millions and ignore the results, which is a huge mistake for a midf...

which pretty much underlines what a disaster these hybrid PUs have turned out to be. True. These engines are a disaster. These engines are a disaster in much the same way as all the stuff Trump claimed during the election was a disaster: you don't like them. They aren't a disaster, and if they were...

Lance has 2 more F1 points than anyone complaining about him here. By that retarded logic, I am just as good a driver as Alonso this season since I have as many points as him. You haven't exploded the same number of Honda's that Fernando has. You're funny. :smug: The Williams was probably a car to ...

I don't see why Perez letting Ocon by would lose time, two long straights would have been the ideal places. Perez would still have DRS as long as he was right behind Ocon, while Ocon would have DRS, a Mercedes engine, and a tyre advantage. In other words, Ocon held three advantages over Ricciardo, ...

Next race is Baku. Place your bets on who will be the fastest.

I'd say Mercedes will have the edge. This is another power track.

nixxxon

Now I re watch the race, I'm not so sure if Ocon will have managed a podium. If Perez was that close to Ricciardo all that time and within DRS and he couldn't get past, then I don't really know how Ocon could as he couldn't even get past Perez who was on older tyres. Yes, there maybe should have be...

nixxxon

Perez may regret that. For those teams every point really does matter and they came close to hitting 3rd. That amount of points can be a few positions in a table over the year. Perez may have dented his own ambition. Nah, I dont think it will be a problem. Force India is in a very comfortable 4th p...

I'd say Mercedes has the edge on power, Ferrari has the edge on cornering.
Canada is a power track, therefore Merc was faster.

nixxxon

Its so sad to see a driver like Alonso hopelessly trying to defend position against a driver like Stroll.

nixxxon

About fuel economy... because they all have the same fuel flux, with these F1 engines the less power you produce, the slower you go, the more time it spends consuming fuel, so pretty much, being less powerful equals to being more thirsty too

I can see some drivers fly past him in the straight, sadly. Can't do much in Canada with that crappy engine

Well, if you are going to be condescending, then right back at you: Alonso was proven to have been involved, Ron not. You do understand the concept, don't you? I don't think that makes Alonso blameless. He was willing participant and only threatened to tell the authorities when he thought he could ...

The whole 2007 saage, all parties involved were responsible. And the most of the blame lies with McLaren and Ron. Then equal blame on both drivers for doing stupid things. The spygate is entirely on the head of McLaren and not Alonso. They cheated. They got caught. Alonso refused to lie if asked by...

His biggest mistake was leaving Renault at the end of 2006 How so? What did you think the future had in store then? Him ending up at Ferrari as soon as 2008 and winning the 2008 WDC with Ferrari?

Manufacturers typically come and go, however Mercedes have stayed longer than anybody else in F1 1994-2017 so far , 23 years and now in its 8th year as a team which I believe is the joint most for any manufacturer in one stint. They also owned 30-40% of Mclaren for a long time. It would be nice for...

No more ridiculous than questioning the level of driving based on how well a former double WDC has done Don't agree. The only way we can try and assess the levels of separate championships is when crossovers happen. The problem with this argument is that it's a single data point. Alonso crossing ov...

Moto3 is like Indy 500 - even if its a slipstream fest, the best ones should stand out in the end, and skill and being smart makes the difference too. I remember quite well when Maverick Viñales won Moto 3 with his wise racing, staying out of trouble, and being always up there for the taking, and ch...

After Monaco I realised the Ferrari is the better car.
Its more versatile for all kinds of tracks, definitely.

Dont know why but historically japanese drivers and riders (F1 and MotoGP) have been the perfect definition of "average" in general terms.

There is some rare exception though, like Daijiro Kato in bikes (RIP)

I dont think any of the top team drivers made an particularly great performance. Voted for Sainz, best of the rest and held off Hamilton in a slower car
