Re: What Can Be Done for 2016?

The FIA will have to step in here, won't they? Why, what have Mercedes done wrong ? Are they to be punished for being successful ? As long as they let their drivers race freely there will still be something entertaining for viewers to watch. The Shumacher-Barrichello processions were when manufactu...

Re: F1 Website

I am looking for pictures taken throughout the weekend... Still haven't found them :? After seeing the new website, maybe John Sutton even quit. So no more photos. The new website's layout is so horrendous that I'll now prefer going to other websites for information. It looks like MotoGP have gone ...

Re: Which is the Strongest Driver Line-up for 2015?

Well I would say there is perhaps not much too choose between all 4 drivers at this stage, it's going to be interesting to see how it all pans out, to see who might come out on top. It is totally unknown for us to REALLY know Williams pace vs. Ferrari pace. All 4 drivers were brought to same group ...

Re: Which is the Strongest Driver Line-up for 2015?

The thread is about driver pairings. We know that Rosberg is if anything faster than Lewis over a single lap, yet today he gave away six tenths. This suggests that he's seriously dragged the pairing down. Kvyat didn't even manage to get into Q3, so the RBR pairing is also compromised there. I'd cut...

Re: Which is the Strongest Driver Line-up for 2015?

I don't understand this point. Both were quicker than Bottas? What do you mean? I agree that on the basis of one qualifying it's not possible to say whether both drivers managed to extract the maximum from the car. On the contrary, both admitted to making mistakes and that they could have had P3. I...

I know you would, as you take almost any opportunity to slate them both. But what evidence is there that they under-performed more than any other pairing? I repeat: Kimi left 3 tenths on the table. Vettel screwed up his final run. AFAIK Hamilton/Massa/Ricciardo didn't screw up their final run or le...

Based on what exactly? They qualified very close to each other but that could easily mean they both failed to get the maximum out of the car. Also it could be said that neither were quicker than either Bottas or Massa in cars that look to be quite even, we already know that Massa is much the equal ...

It's not looking good for Alonso short term but it's a longer term plan I think Lewis should move to Honda to make them a winner like Mercedes. Whatever he brings for the teams he drives for (i don't know), that thing is needed for Honda too. #look at McLaren before and after him (2006 and 2013) #l...

The gap between Mercedes and massively improved Ferrari is about the gap between 1st and 20th back in 2008 when the entire field was regularly within 2 seconds.
