What would be the 'perfect tire'?
So this season was made interesting mainly by the tires, teams were struggling to understand them and manage to switch them on. But what type of tire is the best? One that 'drops off the cliff' suddenly and loses grip, one that allows the driver to push the car hard for longer periods of time, or on...

Re: BRAZIL: Driver of the day
How can you vote for Vettel on the fact that he came back from having a spin, he caused the spin by having a bad a start and turning into senna.

Re: If Kimi wasn't at Lotus this year
Kimi has been excellent this year, i wonder what he would have done had he been not out of F1 for 2 years! Renault/Lotus have been competitive since 2010 and he would have done a good job with Kubica in 2010. Maybe with a more "involved" driver they could have gotten better results, but I think Kim...

He is almost single handedly putting them at the 4th in standings, generated so much hype about the team, gained them millions and millions of fans and put Lotus under the spot lights so many times this year, being on the podium almost half of the races. And there's no doubt of his contribution of ...

Re: Which car was faster in Austin?
Hamilton had a different line to Vettel going through the s bends, that was when he was closing the gap, thats where i think the Mclaren was fastest, maybe because of how Lewis was driving it. But overall i think they were very close.

Here's one take on it. When Hamilton came in in 2007, and had that extraordinary year, Button was struggling with the dog that was the RA107. A lot of people who quickly got behind Hamilton, having never followed F1 extensively beforehand, would have seen the other Englishman doing nothing special,...
