Good idea to humiliate your employer at their home race in front of millions of fans. On well, luckily the Japanese aren't that interested in honor and all that. More & above, Honda are paying him millions. So atleast he should be quite, and not say comments like these on TV. Plus he probably knew ...

voted Yes. verstappen is quite an impressive rookie, shame about his immaturity though. At this point of his career he should approach such matters with more wisdom. Eventually Sainz will get him back for his selfishness. http://www.espn.co.uk/f1/story/_/id/13701810/dad-kicked-nuts-says-max-verstap...

so sad to see Maldonado stay, and drivers like Jenson cannot find a proper seat in F1 anymore.

hk77

Imo, today's result is bad news for anyone who is not a Hamilton fan. Championship looks finished.
Which is not good for F1 generally. I hope Monza stays on the calendar.

Hopefully next season teams will be more competitive.

hk77

It's getting too frustrating being a Kimi fan for me, I have lost faith in his ability and I'm sick of all the excuses. I hope he retires at the end of the season, with his current level of performance it certainly doesn't look like it will be his decision. so true and sad. i hope they get Hulk ins...

hk77

IMO, he figured that he wont be winning unless his teammate runs into problems, otherwise he is just collecting points. More and above he seems happy to be just on the podium. He seems lacking in motivation and overtaking skills. for us viewers, I find this frustrating to watch an entire race where ...

hk77

honestly, I would prefer hot grid girls.

grid guys is an extremely pathetic idea, it should never have been considered.

vettel's view on the matter:

I agree from what I have seen so far, that he is quite talented. however their is a risk if a driver is following that closely . it looked like it was a matter of time until the safety car came out. and thank god it did, otherwise it would have been the most boring of Monaco races that I have seen. ...

hk77

I think neither Alonso or Ricciardo should have been penalised for the incidents. With overtaking so hard, especially at Monaco, they should be allowed to try everything they can to get past. So many other racing series allow bumping and pushing. Ric whacked Kimi hard enough to unsettle the car. F1...

hk77

I agree that it's quite boring, near impossible overtaking, unless it rains.
A also agree that is no place for modern f1.

Would probably make sense To have it on the calendar, but without the points or half points .

hk77

Interesting at today's driver interviews that the three drivers who last participated when refuelling was in (Raikkonen, Button and Hamilton) all wanted refuelling to come back in. Alonso also said that F1 has been taking a wrong direction for a few years. F1 is not endurance racing, strategies nee...

I'm with the idea.
Fuel strategies should allow drivers to push even more and allow different race plans.

More and above kers & Drs were not around when refueling was last in the formula, so overtaking shouldn't be affected.

hk77

IMO this seat should go to either a potential driver or a race driver.

not the wife of a shareholder. Nepotism on this level is unacceptable in F1.

hk77

so bridgestone were good after all. I do agree with DC that their has to be a solution to follow other cars with out being disadvantaged.(he said basically its the case with indy car and other American spec racing). Also, I strongly believe that refueling needs to be re introduced. (fuel strategies ...

hk77

I have to agree that so far it has been quite easy for Hamilton to be getting wins, especially,when he is compared with any one whom has been in f1for 9 years. Obviously the 2 teams, have always been able to provide him with competitive machinery during his career. Others have not been so fortunate.

hk77

I would love to see real strategies, meaning tires that are built for racing and refueling.
not very difficult

This seems to be red bull's best solution.

They could probably develop better around that chassis.

hk77

For sure, they will be able to benefit if the mercs run into problems.

Otherwise they are a solid second for the time being.

hk77

refueling will be good.

fuel restrictions are stupid, and so are rev limiters.

limited engines and gearboxes are not for F1.

Bernie needs a proper succession plan.

hk77

I agree that his luck was bad, but on the other hand his pace seemed pretty good during the race.
so one can have more optimism if Ferrari can carry on like that.

1st lap imo is a typical race incident.

pit crew were obviously rusty, but they need to get their act together QUICK.

hk77

voted Bad. Mercedes dominated more than expected, which imo is very bad for the show, they didn't even get enough t.v. coverage for their sponsors. rosberg was more or less sterile. didn't even try to go for half an overtake. cant remember how many cars competed but it wasn't enough. the fia has a l...

hk77

Does this mean that whenever Alonso, returns he will still have the 4 new engines for the season, or does he use the one that is being used by Magnussen?

hk77

I agree that this is very poor management on saubers behalf. But Assuming that he races in Melbourne, how does he expect any of the team members to back him up?
If he is unwelcome within a team, than this can't be very good for his future in F1.

hk77

Lets hope the FIA intervenes like the did in 02 & 04 , so as to balance the field a bit. other wise , judging from rosberg's lap, the final podium place will be the main event. :thumbdown: I think they tried to when they banned the FRIC suspension, what did they do in 2002 and 2004?

imo the idea of ww3, is more likely to result from the U.S. providing weapons to Ukraine, rather than from the so called radical moslems whom according to islam are not moslems. those groups are only interested in political benefits, such as the moslem brotherhood party whom are trying to emerge in ...

And if anyone can forget that Irag Saddam killed how many of his own people 50-100,000 at least using Weapons of Mass destruction, using Gas and it just took a few bombs, BTW this bombs they had where not purchased from the USA as I am sure your thinking. USA supported Iran (the old Shah) and then ...

The question is , why is a super power getting involved in the middleast?

And why do they have the right to implement what they refer to as democracy in countries that are thousands of miles away.

hk77

For some reason the nose on the Mclaren looks like the black minardi (don't remember which one exactly). Which imo is quite ugly.

Then again, by the time we get to Melbourne, most of these cars will probably look different.

I believe the noise last year was pathetic,
I'm glad that they are on the right direction

They sure look good but they could just do a few fast laps and a lot of slow ones, we will only find out in qualy for the first race. I never look much at testing, I'll just wait at the end of all test days and look for an article with the end verdict. And if Ferrari package is great than Seb is a ...

im hoping that 2015 will bring better engine noise. although Honda already has a vid of the 2015 noise and I cant say im impressed. paul Hembry already mentioned that the tires by the end of 2015, will be challenging the lap records. I hope this means that the majority of the drivers wont be complai...

I voted 98, however some of his other campaigns were mega as well.
but its quite hard to single out a season.

hope he gets better soon.

I would like em to drop the interviews on the podium and go back to what we had before. I know they still do the proper conference afterwards but you now have to go searching for it. Hearing what the driver had to say in a proper manner was part of the post race spectacle. Agree. They can still kee...

hk77

Voted yes.

Imo it opened up strategies, and drivers pushed much more.
Now it's more about tire conservation and fuel monitoring and less risk taking.

Heavy fuel loads makes them slower and drivers are becoming more cautious.

Anyway that's just my opinion.

Massa, he was consistently thrashed by all his team-mates except 08. Did Massa kick your cat or something? He beat Villenueve and got as close to Schumacher as any of the German's team mates 1991-2006. Massa and Raikkonen 2007-2009, was 213-195 to Massa on points, with Raikkonen experiencing 3 more...

I think Bianchi's accident may have a strong influence in it but for the first time this season (in fact maybe the first time since I started watching F1) I just didn't feel any emotion. I could have quite happily turned off and looked up the results after. The whole thing just seemed somehow lacki...
