Am I the only one who finds this type of thread not only useless but utterly pointless?

You don’t have to take part…

I guess there’s a question of how different would 2021 been has Ricciardo still been at Red Bull. Would it have helped or hindered Verstappen? I think Ricciardo would have almost certainly beat Verstappen in qualifying and the race 3-5 times which would probably been just enough for Hamilton to win...

I would just like to say what a good body of work that you're producing.

Seconded

I don't really understand the big deal about preserving gaps over SC/Red flag conditons. I think the possibility that the gaps are removed adds a certain strategic element to the races as the teams/drivers are able to either gamble or play it safe when it comes to the pace they are setting, the tim...

I assumed the red flag was for debris rather than concerns over tyres, so fair enough if so. *they should still get rid of the standing start after a red flag rule though, that's entertainment over sport. They should get rid of SC. Always do red flag (maybe keep VSC for small incidents). Then do ro...

A link would be nice. Verstappen.com. It was in the post. It seems to read as people have said, Perez had the better strategy but it should have been different because Verstappen is the championship leader. Every parent is their kids biggest fan and wants the best for them.Jos is bias, of course he...

JN23

The biggest surprise for me here is how wide the gap is in the races. If I’d have guessed I’d have put the qualifying result closer to the actual race result and race result closer to the actual qualifying result.

JN23

Last year's race was a classic case of entertainment over sport. The red flag was a nonsense, the race could have easily finished under safety car. Not sure on that one. Verstappen would have been cleared for a race start after the SC. They red flagged it because of concerns over the tyres. Red fla...

No love for Rosberg vs Schumacher, which considering the subject seems to come up fairly regularly, it might be useful to see.

Charles Pic vs Giedo Van Der Garde?

Edit to add serious answer: I agree with ATH that Ricciardo vs Verstappen is probably the best for context on current grid but I’m kinda interested by Magnussen vs Grosjean. The Haas was so bad and unreliable at times that it was impossible to follow.

JN23

Despite the points tally Ricciardo was clearly the better driver but it's still seen as a weak year for Ricciardo, Gasly would later look more convincing against Kvyat. I'm not sure he did in 2020... Qualifying was closer in 2020 but still the same level as Ricciardo but not the points table:- 2020...

Does anyone fancy doing a detailed look at Ricciardo vs Kvyat in 2015? Challenge accepted! In 2015, Daniil Kvyat was promoted to Red Bull to partner Daniel Ricciardo and repeated the feat of Ricciardo in 2014 by defeating the incumbent in the WDC. However, are appearances deceiving or did he provid...

Does anyone fancy doing a detailed look at Ricciardo vs Kvyat in 2015? Or know an article where that’s done? I could do, but my last attempt didn't generate much discussion. It would probably be quite interesting. All right, I can't resist! Looking forward to it! My impression/memory is that Riccia...

Kyvat - out scored him in there only year together

Does anyone fancy doing a detailed look at Ricciardo vs Kvyat in 2015? Or know an article where that’s done?

My memory is that circumstance/luck meant that Kvyat beat Ricciardo but interested to know if my memory is right.

JN23

What do you mean both were worse? They can't both be worse than eachother. Latifi also managed a sneaky pass on Zhou when zhou gave the position to tsunoda and he squeezed by too. The sort of move that drivers in the past have had a lot of praise for. He saw an oppertunity to overtake in monaco and...

Magnussen to win in Singapore? Can Haas even afford for Mick to write off another car deliberately? Deliberately? F1Tyrant suggested that Schumacher Jr deserves the Piquet Jr treatment, so I asked if Magnussen would win the Singapore GP this year in reference to crash gate. Hence the response from ...

What would be the chances of Albon taking the McLaren seat should Ricciardo move on? Also - should Hamilton decide to call it a day, would Merc consider partnering Russell with Norris? I think the jury is still out on Albon for teams further up the grid, he started the season well but hasn’t been g...

I'm really surprised anyone is tipping Schumacher to keep the Haas seat. Young Mick looks a spent force in F1 and showing no tangible sign of improvement.

I'm not sure he deserves anything other than the Piquet Jr treatment.

Magnussen to win in Singapore?

Been reading about the Hamilton and Ocon incidents again: https://the-race.com/formula-1/hamilton-picked-up-damage-in-unseen-second-ocon-clash/ There was the first incident where they touched at the apex of turn one which we saw on the live feed during the race. Then the second incident where Ocon m...

I'd like to see the reasons as to why Albon has 10 votes. I know latifi has more, but not by much. Both were bad, but in what way was albon better on race day? His collision with the wall cost him much more than latifi. and he was far worse with blue flags than him too. In addition to that there wa...

My method is to score qualifying and the race from 1-5 and average them out: 1 - Ferrari comfortable advantage 2 - Ferrari slight advantage 3 - Even 4 - Red Bull slight advantage 5 - Red Bull comfortable advantage Qualifying average: 2.6 Race average: 3 Combined average: 2.8 Using the methods everyo...

As expected, Checo gets a 2 year extension at Red Bull. This time he has earned it for such an early announcement.

I see a lot of "driver of the weekend" feelings instead of "driver of the day". That seems to pollute the intent of the thread. Having both (day, weekend) might be useful?

I think there was both at one point, maybe last in about 2018?

JN23

I've heard this from multiple sources now. My immediate reaction is that removing the FIA from the picture and having Liberty Media take 100% control of the sport is a recipe for disaster and will lead even further down the path of cheap spectacle over substance. However in most of the points raise...

I work in a school and there's one other person there who's really into it like I am.

Perez - better than Verstappen on Saturday and Sunday, probably for the first time in his Red Bull career Leclerc - comfortably ahead of Sainz on Saturday and bore the brunt of a classic Ferrari strategy disaster class on Sunday. Although Sainz gets kudos for driving his own strategy Russell - Hami...

It remains my opinion that the majority of criticism aimed at Ricciardo is unfounded simply because the majority on this forum continue to underestimate Norris. I'm totally aware of the nature of the circuit, traffic and tyres but this Monaco weekend Norris finished 7 places and 45 seconds ahead of...

JN23

The tipping point for me was yesterday (but I guess this also applies to 2019), where you can intentionally drive 3 seconds off the pace and not be in any danger of being overtaken. Time to go.

JN23

Does anyone know how much this cost Leclerc? The lap times on the FIA website suggest that Leclerc and Albon pitted on the same lap, but the race fans article suggests differently, so I can’t really look at Leclerc’s times to know for sure. On the basis, Verstappen was just ahead after the switch to...

Is there a video of this second one? Haven’t seen it and don’t think it was shown during the race.
Found it!

Ah thank you - I did see that on twitter yesterday, and thought it looked different to the one they showed on the coverage, but then didn’t think anymore of it.

What exactly did Ocon get the penalty for? It can't have been for the clip they aired where he turned in to the corner while Lewis' front wing happened to be by his rear tyre? The first incident was bad enough, Hamilton was fully alongside at corner entry and had to slam on the brakes when Ocon pul...

The FIA has gone for another any/all interpretation again. How convenient. I despair of this sport. I can't understand why would they need to change this rule in that way. Super strange and stupid. But looking at other sports (with ball e.g. tennis, football, volleyball) - when the line is consider...

So, F1 stewards are making up rules as they go again. The 'whole tyre having to cross the line' is just made up. Hasn't it always been running on the line as a problem? I am sure it is. The rule changed for this year. Where's the official document explaining that? I'd like to read it. Thanks This d...

The RB drivers won’t be getting the penalties that are black and white per Tsunoda last year: 1. Penalising Perez would hand the win to Sainz, who has yet to win a race. It was his post race podium that set the precedent for not changing a podium after a race, and if they did penalise Perez he woul...
