As a side note, I remember how some forumers reacted in such a (imo) disgusting way and were up in arms when Monaco put out some grid guys saying that they don't belong there. And if that was a wider view, I'd be tempted to vote for getting rid of grid girls. Bingo. And it took the option of mixing...

... As a previous poster mentioned, I think some people seem to feel that any recognition that an individual is attractive is a blow against feminism, and I think that's far from the truth. The logical conclusion of that is that all modelling should be phased out, but I don't know why that should b...

It seems that girls can be anything they want now, that's good. Erm, as long as they want to be what some people want them to be that is. It seems they have to be what feminists require them to be. It seems to be a male decision telling women what they can and can't do, with a PR spin of not sexual...

From the depiction above every position would be devalued actually as the next car down the grid is closer to you. Current grid formation is staggered with a full car length offset. With this revision cars are would be staggered with a 1/3 offset. Bringing new idea's is always refeshing but that do...

IIRC, this is the last year of the original Williams/Martini deal. We might be looking at Mclaren-Martini next year?

what chance that they will still be too hard and drivers complaining they cant heat them up and they are so tricky to get and keep in the window. the hyper should be like a qualifying tyre and maybe the top teams wont use it as it only lasts 5 laps, but some will take a gamble and mix things up at ...

Everything is a compound harder apparently. So if everything shifts one level... 2017 hard = 2018 ultra hard 2017 medium = 2018 hard ..... 2017 ultra soft = 2018 super soft 2018 ultra soft and 2018 hyper soft are new compounds. I remember Hamilton saying in Monaco I think, the Ultra Soft was like u...

I am not sure I see a problem. The teams are already sneaking all sorts of photos and inside info... why not make it open?

I was surprised at him getting a Mcl seat and thought he performed well against BUT, but he was by no means looking like a match and his mistakes and messing with others' races didn't improve.

The difference between him and Hulk is incredible. He struggles to get out of Q1 while HULK puts it in Q3; p7, p8 every time. I think the only reason he got the drive this year is Mag said no and Renault didn't want to wste money on drivers while getting the car up to speed aand lots of top driver c...

It's been close but Barcelona marks the start of massive upgrade battle, no? Who do you think has the edge now? In one sense.. clearly Merc were faster in Q, but when have they not been? Bot had an old engine too. In another sense, 1. Ham/Merc had pole 2. Vet/Ferrari led easily thru T1 3. Vet lost 6...

My vote goes to WEH ... Sure the VSC helped but he had to be up there to take advantage of it . And OMG Sauber in front of McL !!! ON the vet/Ham Ferrari/Mercedes issue...

To the OP, how old are you? And also to the OP, Hunt lucky? Come on! He won the German GP when his closest rival crashed and nearly died.

IDK. Since Williams has had Claire in charge their upsurge has suffered only this year. They need a decent aero guy and someone else but Smedley making brave strategy calls but I still gave hopes for them

Rosberg fits perfectly fine into the tier of drivers below 'the greats'. Plenty non greats have been crown WDC - he isn't the first or the last. Since Hunt was crowned champion in 76, I'd definitely say Rosberg is on a similar level to, or better than, Scheckter, Andretti, Jones, Keke, Hill, Villen...

But what exactly did Hamilton do that was unsporting? He didn't cheat, he didn't bend the rules, he didn't do anything dangerous, he didn't attempt to take anyone out, he didn't illegally tamper with Rosberg's race. He didn't do anything unfair. He had to win with at least two cars between him and ...

Shia Luck

Depends on your criteria, no?

Sainz and Alonso were amazing at extracting great drives from cars with issues.

Rosberg was Mr. consistent.. 1st or 2nd every race, no?

Verstappen for the most amazing overtakes/performances.

Ricciardo had a great season despite his teammate stealing headlines.

I think Button and Alonso will stay for 2017. Stoffel will be placed in another team and 2018 will be crunch year for all of them.

Well Hamilton has had to deal with that challenge more so than Alonso and apart from 2011 has come out on top, Alonso has not been challenged since 2007 mainly perhaps because of his own excellence, so his equilibrium has not been put to the test to see if he is a more rounded driver these days.
