So, what are your thoughts about his 2nd stint at McLaren? Judging by Ferraris form this year, which haven't even been improving I feel his move is good. I think he/they will face some problems in the early part of the 2015 season due to the new Honda engine but all in all I think the Hond partners...

DrG

Oh good, being a long term Ferrari fan this makes me feel really good about the future, not

DrG

Yes they do, nothing more to add to that

DrG

I'm amazed Jenson spoke out like that. But I don't doubt for a second that he is right. Still, even McLaren need the money. :thumbup: I did a Google search & the only one that came up with that title was PlanetF1 front page & we all know what that means, nothing. I would be extremely surprised if J...

I have never particularly liked Ron Dennis but a lot of that is being a long term Ferrari fan & McLaren have always been our main rivals. What he is doing at the moment with Jenson Button, though, is pure bastardry. According to rumours everyone else at McLaren have decided, between Button & Magnuss...

DrG

Ok, I'll admit that I have clapped my hands once or twice when my drivers main rival for the championship DNF's or made a mistake but I have never cheered when their rivals had an accident. Well, maybe a little bit once I knew they were ok. Being an OF & having watched the race where Senna died, I h...

Isn't he supposed to be carrying them? :lol: :-P :thumbup: :lol: They decided to swap roles, it was Ferrari's farewell gift :lol: Hahaha. I must admit this is a sad day for me as my favourite team & my favourite driver part ways but, considering how much crap is & has been aimed at Alonso, I though...

I have always seemed to support good but not great drivers, Arnoux, Alesi, Massa... the thing is, being British I like to support the underdog. To my mind the only thing more British than supporting a British driver is supporting an underdog. And on the upside, how much joy is there really for a Sc...

DrG

I've always liked Nico & he showed total class in how he dealt with, not only losing the championship considering the problems he was dealing with all race, but wanting to finish the race even though he was 12th at the time & had been told to retire his car. Not only did he go & congratulate Lewis a...

Going for number seven? If that was a reply to me then no, going for number five, I'm a Jeff Gordon fan although I do like JJ :D That's very cool DrG, I know some serious Jeff Gordon fans, and he's still quite amazing. Funny how I remember how the kid was sneered at by Dale Earnhard in the beginnin...

Farmer Joe decided his injuries from his recent accident were serious enough to take the trucking company responsible for the accident to court. In court, the trucking company's fancy lawyer was questioning farmer. "Joe. Didn't you say, at the scene of the accident, that you were fine?" "Well, I'll ...

Internet research on which books people genuinely recommend, then regular trips to the good old fashioned library. There's nothing you can't order a book about. You just need to do that little bit of research about which books are thought of as being the most useful. There's forums on line about ev...

If any of you guys are watching a NASCAR race on a shorter track, keep an eye on Harvick on the restarts. For me, that is worth the price of admission, that on cold and underinflated tires he can hustle a sliding car around those corners. Under this scenario he really shines and you can see his imm...

Before F1 I didn't buy Rolexes. Nor did I bank with UBS. Nor did I have Pirelli's on my car. I didn't drink Red Bull, use Petronas, admire Ferrari's or know what Martini is. But now thanks to F1 I'm a Rolex wearing, bank loving, Pirelli driving caffeine addicted alcoholic who can't resist scaring b...

Having read the whole article so I could get everything in context rather than rely on posts that quoted only parts, yes I do agree with him

DrG

Oh, & congratulations Kevin Harvick. Out of the final four drivers that could have won the Championship, I'm glad you did cause I was pulling for you

DrG

It's all about consistency now I guess But wasn't this new format supposed to cut back on consistency driving and reward race wins more? Although it is looking like to win the cup, you'll need to win Homestead outright this year - unless Gordon does. That seems to have kind of backfired! Oh, tell m...

Before Facebook and Twitter there was myspace, msn and yahoo messenger, icq and I probably forget a few others. I assume they still exist but Facebook and Twitter took over last few years. I however don't believe these kinds of social media will always remain on top. Sooner or later they will get r...

DrG

Yea, you're right. I think I'm just miffed about everything at the moment

DrG

Yes I have & it happened almost exactly like that scenario minus the brother & father & adding a husband. I now make sure that the TV stays turned off until I am ready to hit play

DrG

I don't know about anyone else but I was really pi.ssed off with Kimi holding up Alonso this race when Alonso was obviously faster &, as far as I could see, for no reason except that one is leaving the team & one isn't. Alonso got past Kimi anyway so it was a futile exercise on Kimi's part & I think...

when you arrive at work the first thing you do is check all f1 related news before starting any work. Or you don't depending on where you are in the world, like this race in Brazil. I had to record it as it started at 3am on a Monday morning so I have spent all day avoiding any sports news that mig...

Although Stewart was not involved in the latest NASCAR shenanigans, three drivers, Gordon, Keselowski, and Harvick got into as classic brawl after the race in Texas. http://youtu.be/y1bSUYLsVr4 Now this may be hard for those used to Formula One conduct, but NASCAR liked it so much they posted the v...

To make things clear, my original post was not to put down Nascar and the different culture in racing. I have said many times I love both Nascar and F1.. It was more about TS and if it is too soon for him to be racing. I saw his first press conference after the Sprint Car incident, and he looked "d...

Maybe McLaren might start being a decent team again. My thoughts exactly. Wherever he goes he seems to drag teams down! this is probably a good thing for McLaren. :thumbup: Yup!

Sure reading a lot into a rumour based on a 60 percent sized scale model in October. Engine developments will, in my opinion, be a bigger key to Ferrari resurgence than this October model car.

Oh, I just so love the elitist attitude of some F1 fans when it comes to NASCAR& who don't follow NASCAR & only comment on one race or an incident they see on the news or a YouTube clip etc. Tin top racing is a whole different thing compared to racing in open cars & tin top racing in NASCAR compare...

This was widely reported here in Australia. Probably because the two most popular places for Aussie's to holiday are Bali & Thailand.
