Re: Massa- career almost done?
I wish. Why they haven't gotten rid of him long ago is a mystery to me, he's an embarrassment to Ferrari. No wait, to F1. Ok maybe I'm being a bit harsh but it does make you wonder what exactly is keeping him in one of the most coveted seats in the sport. Ferrari is an embarrassment to Ferrari, the...

Re: Will Ferrari Finish The Race?
WOW. I doubt they will, don't think Ferrari will do that, I think we're more likely to see Domencalli or Massa sacked than this Luca di Montezemolo will sack everyone except Alonso in his eye's only he an Alonso are perfect, last year they sacked and re hired loads of people it's Hitler style almos...

Re: Sky F1, what a load of fairy cakes!
Some of you lot are crazy. You get a whole channel devoted to F1 and all you can do is moan. Jeez, at least you can watch live races... But for eternity we have had it for free and recently in HD and with no adverts so I suppose £35 or £40 it has to be a lot better and it's not looking like it is. ...

Re: Bernie spouting off again
I thinkt if Bernie quits (however I think he won't quit by himself so I guess death or serious health issues would be the only way he would go) I would feel relief. On the other hand yeah how will F1 be like without him? He has done much for the sport too. He's done much for those involved in the s...

Re: One move to defend an overtake Opinions please.
You're right Fiki, it's a bit of a thankless task the rule makers have got. As soon as you make a rule you create margins to that rule that drivers will push. It was a much better situation when a lot of the 'rules' of racing where an unspoken understanding between all the drivers in regard to what...

Re: One move to defend an overtake Opinions please.
Well, my knowledge of the unwritten rule going back to the late 80s early 90s was that the one move was determined as follows:- "A move off the racing line and then back again = one move". That is certainly my memory of seeing moves between Senna, Prost, Mansell et al. i.e. look at the racing line ...

Re: One move to defend an overtake Opinions please.
Defending now will be almost impossible... I really struggle to understand what some people on here think racing is. You would prefer to see cars weaving around in front of others so that it's impossible to overtake? Why should a driver who has driven the preceding section of a track in such a way ...

Re: How would the 6 world champs finish a season IN SAME CAR
Who wins the TOC every year??
Is that Vettel and Schumacher?
So I would say Vettel and Schumacher at the top the other 4 close behind.

I class myself ad a neutral in the Hamilton / Button debate. But from an appreciation perspective of who had the most natural driving talent, it just has to goto Lewis Hamilton.

18-20 races is optimal. I don't want too many races, because there is risk of getting bored. Like after the race start and just before the first pitstops? F1 is more boring in some races than watching a film 3 times, I often go and make the dinner after the start and then sit down whilst it cooks t...
