Re: Michelins insistence on tyres with 18" rims from a techn
I guess the only benefit to Michelin from a technical perspective would possible new information they can learn for low profile tyres based on how F1 cars would react and development thereon. Nothing new to learn from tyres that have been the same for years now eh.... Fair enough. Also, Based on wha...

Re: Spa bored me away from the TV
I looked forward to the race after the long break. Very disappointed. I was hoping for Vettel and Hamilton to fight it out proper with Alonso in there as well. I think the first few mins were interesting and it went down hill from there personally & my first few mins I mean after 3 laps > . <. Here'...

Michelins insistence on tyres with 18" rims from a technical
Hello! I know that this is still speculation, Michelins re-entry from 2014 onwards, but for knowledge sake I would like to know from the experts here the reasoning behind their insistence on producing tyres which would require 18" rims should they enter F1 again? How would this effect the cars from ...

Re: Is 2013 going to be Williams F1 Team's worst season?
What is the longest Williams have gone without scoring a point? This the 2013 season? or was it last year.
After how many races did they score in 2012 if anyone would know.
Also, Perhaps 2014 will be good for them. Fresh start.
