I agree with him to some extent, he won his titles in a pretty good car.

Channel 4 using the chain, wow!

I would like them to announce Ben Edwards as commentator, soon I hope.

2016 is going to be pretty interesting for Stoffel Vandoorne observers, he will be competing in the Super Formula in Japan this year if he does well there then a seat in F1 could be his for next year. December last year there were reports that Sauber could use Honda engines next year and that will b...

I've read the news about E.J might be doing new top gear, shame that he's doing that.

Hopefully Channel 4 will announce Ben Edwards as commentator alongside DC.

paulsf1fix

He might have a point, however for me I really like F1 as Murray Walker used to say anything can happen in F1 and it usually does! Maybe the cars do need to be harder to drive for the drivers and take off a few driver aids, however a lot of the technology used in F1 is meant to transfer to the car i...

On Wednesday, 3 February Renault are holding a press conference (it's being reported that it will be held in Paris) they will announce their F1 plans for the future and will announce driver lineups. If Maldonado loses his seat it's being reported that he has, then a drive at Manor could happen if ca...

paulsf1fix

I like to think that Manor have enough budget, cash to make all the right changes. If they got to sign a couple of pay drivers to help pay the drivers then so be it.

paulsf1fix

I feel that Wurz doesn't really want to retire, it'll be interesting to see how they do as Ganassi normally do good at Daytona.

F1 is over complicated on the power unit front and extremely expensive and why? it does nothing for the racing and just rockets up the price of going racing :thumbup: :thumbup: True. Unless there are more billionaires in this world interested in spending loads on F1 then I think the grid will be of...

paulsf1fix

the ones to keep from BBC would be lee mckensie, david coulthard, ben Edwards :thumbup: :thumbup: Yes please, can it include Eddie Jordan? I don't know how I feel about Suzi Perry being in a lead role, I liked her though. I really hope that they don't sign a couple of people mentioned in this threa...

Didn't Alfa branding appear on the Ferrari this year or was it last year? shame they couldn't rebadge the 2015 spec engines Alfa's, it would be hella a tongue twister to say Toro Rosso Alfa Romeo next year if it happens....

paulsf1fix

If I had a pound for every time Ferrari to leave F1 I'd be a very rich man! Ferrari are like marmite you either love them or hate them, I'm not a huge fan of theirs. Yes it was nice to see them win with Vettel, sometimes it was hard to watch them dominate the sport like the did in the early noughtie...

paulsf1fix

Not particularly fond of it, personally. Blue on black is much too dark and low-contrast; I'd have preferred green on black. But if it pays the bills and helps them stay competitive and even continue to climb the ladder, hey - more power to them. I agree, I am hoping for green and white but not blu...

paulsf1fix

I bet they still beat Red Bull next year....

paulsf1fix

Too little, too late. I heard the guys put the suspension parts on the wrong way!

Still something else to blame on Martin T.

paulsf1fix

I still can't get over what he did to F1........ he put grooves on the tyres and made the cars look tiny, I know he did it on safety grounds. I wouldn't personelly read Max's book, I'd rather read Flavio Briatore's book if it came about in a business way.

paulsf1fix

I don't understand it really Lotus must have spoken to Renault about the 2016 driver lineup, I think it's Renault chucking their weight around after buying Lotus. They should honour their contracts, unless Bernie's been on the phone.....

paulsf1fix

I honestly love Force India. They have great people working there, making the most of their limited budget. And on top of that they go for exciting drivers which isn't always the case in midfield teams. :thumbup: :thumbup: I agree, in a way I will miss them. However if rebranding helps to secure th...

paulsf1fix

I personally think Lewis will see out his Mercedes contract and head off to America to race in Nascar!

If they release Nico I reckon they will sign Max.

And my I add Button? That was some interesting battle he had despite having a car 30km/h slower on straight. Showing the attitude to not giving up even in an inferior car.

He never does (Button)

Honestly, I'm bored of Alonso's attitude now. He's a phenomenal talent, no question, one of the best in the history of F1. And I can understand him not wanting to endure another season like he just had. But that's what he signed up for. Nobody held a gun to his head and forced him to return to McLa...

It's about the money....

Jean Alesi was in he frame for the Williams drive for 1993 but they choose Damon Hill instead, Coulthard and Williams had options but D.C had signed for McLaren he wanted to go there for 1995 but Williams blocked the move. This is in D.C's own autobiography. I remember reading that Jean Alesi choose...

Also a possible drive in the Super Formula series (Formula Nippon) dunno how that would work if he's racing in Japan and is expected to race somewhere in Europe.

Shame. I still think it's funny that Flavio Briatore told him he had an F1 drive and to head to Canada and replied that Briatore was winding him up and that he was testing a GT car! however he soon realised that it was no wind up. He wasn't a great F1 driver but he wasn't bad either. Whatever he dec...

Felipe retiring next year is a possibility but they do have Alex Lynn waiting in the wings but that depends on how well he can do this year and if he can be a real championship contender next year. We're see what happens, I bet he denies all knowledge of saying this in the drivers press conference i...

Mercedes will surely step in and re-form Arrows for a junior team to make seats for Wehrlein and Ocon. Mercedes and Arrows has a nice ring to it like Red Bull and Toro Rosso. funny thing... i just read a piece that mentions an entirely different idea... looks like mercedes have a clause in their ma...

Legend I think, Seb's year at Ferrari has been pretty good I thought he was a tad over rated and that he can only win driving a Red Bull but he's proved me wrong this year. Whether or not he will do a Michael Schumacher to win 7 titles it's possible I think he can if Ferrari continue to improve and ...

I have some Indian friends who will not be happy with the rebranding. I too would be sad by the loss of the name 'Force India' but as long as Hulk & Perez get their dues along with the entire team at Silverstone, with better funding & a chance to climb up the order, then I'm happy & content. I agre...

only find this http://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/analysis-what-s-next-for-manor-f1/ I think you will find this is close to the truth. It has been suggested that a look at the finances of Manor and Fitzpatricks companies confirm the basic story. Someone more interested in getting hold of the guarant...

I hope this turns out to be true! I like Force India a lot, I was quite worried the other day when it was reported that they asked for some prize money in advance all though they might be tiring up some lose ends getting their house in order before taking on new sponsors and partners. Also they migh...

I'm pleased for Palmer, if Nasr can do well in F1 then I sure hope Jolyon can. Also he needs to regually beat Maldonaldo.

Is there any chance of Cosworth coming back into F1?

Not unless they are bought out by (say) BMW or Toyota or even VW. Sorry but they probably do not have the budgets to be involved nowadays, shame though.

OT: Great, always rated Montoya. Had to bite my tongue when someone recently compared him to Maldonaldo[/quote] Montoya is a Legend! no body will will ever 'try' to convince me he was or is like Maldonaldo.

I really do not think that Honda will supply Red Bull, Honda turned down Toro Rosso recently and there no way they are in a postion to supply a 2nd team yet. Renault are involved in buying Lotus and they will want to put all their eggs into one basket when it comes to building up Renault F1, however...

Max Verstappen for me he's got a lot of promise, however Dan Ric impressed me a lot last year but I think Max could be the real deal.
