@Alienturnedhuman I do agree with the facts you stated (was referring to practice in Turkey as the race was dry) but as I stated he hasn't been 'mega' as someone else stated earlier. He was beaten by Webber on two of these occasions which didn't really happen in the dry, if that makes sense? Monza ...

I wouldn't count the Mercs out if it stays wet throughout. Schumacher was doing quite well at Canada last year until the track dried out and DRS was enabled.

I don't mean to be nasty but where has Vettel been 'mega' in the rain? last year: Turkey - crashed Nurburgring - was pretty poor to be fair Canada - blew it under pressure (IMO had McLarens been higher up in qualy they would have dominated like the RB did and then won) Silverstone - lost to Webber ...

kimi ballsed up so the real gap diff is 2.1s over the car in front. even to kimi it was 0.8s. they in Q3 1.3s ahead of the ex virgin team, similiar gap to last year in some races. Of course you comparing to the start of last year, not where they were later in the year. whats the gap like losing the...

Been reading some of the comments on other forums and on Twitter. Why is it when Hamilton loses it has the be a conspiracy? This morning I've heard everything from "Lewis was heavily fuelled" to "He was told to play a defensive role" and even "FIA changed tyre manufacturer to ruin Lewis's career" D...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/17412581 Same as the f-duct, or rear blown diffuser, teams instantly accuse the other team of cheating to try and force the team to remove it. I always feel teams should buckle up and try and get with the technology. What do you think, is the FiA going to take ...

While it is a good execution of the idea. I think it's a horrible step back from the helmet he was wearing during testing.

If I still had my Kawasaki green Ninja I'd be masking off one of my black helmets to get a similar design right now.

Drivers: 1. Kimi - the answer is always Kimi. 2. Heiki - wish he'd kept his testing helmet design. 3. Hulk - will the promise he showed at Williams continue. Teams: 1. Caterham - will they still be in the gap between midfield and the other new teams, or have they joined the peloton? 2. Lotus/Mercede...

1. What will be the best surprise? Webber back on form 2. What will be the worst surprise? Ferrari fighting for 6th 3. How many different teams will win races? 4 - Red Bull, McLaren, Mercedes, Lotus 4. Who will be the first driver to fail to qualify for a race? HRT 5. How many races will Fernando Al...

you may as well be discussing who would win a coin toss ? This what I thought as soon as the title of this thread showed up, and why I never bothered to comment on it until now. Yet I still find it entertaining to read the comments in threads like this to see how some people are so sure that their ...

I hate to be that guy but... Speaking mathematically, with enough data available, you can find any sort of relationship between various statistics. For example, if you look where WH Smith stores are located, you can see that by drawing points from certain stores a pentagram can be clearly seen acro...

7-10 day forecasts are useless.

While I'm a huge Kimi fan, I'm also a realist. Although some of the more rabid fans might be predicting a mighty year for the Finn, I think it will only be a middling kind of season for him. Yes the Lotus seems like it could start the season on par with last years car, and hopefully they'll be able ...

49.

I doubt they would need the image selling to them to be fair. They can just ask their technical personel at Milton Keynes.

Except STR is based in Faenza Italy.

Japan last year.

Besides China, I don't quite remember McLaren every being any closer than 20 - 30 seconds behind Vettel. Really? He only won by 20 seconds once in Australia (22.2), and two other times by more than 10 seconds, Korea (12.0) and Valencia (10.8). Impressive yes, but not 20-30 seconds every time. Meanw...

I really want to see a kinetic KERS system working well. It would make things a whole lot easier than lugging around a lump of battery and would also be a fairly cheap alternative to transfer to road car manufacturing with a longer life than the current battery hybrids. Is it just me or are the fro...

What do you mean it failed?
I thought it crashed quite well.

Caterham were/are mid-field?! Really? :uhoh: They haven't been. However they were starting nip at Williams heels toward the end of last season even without KERS. So it's quite possible they will make the step up into the back end of the midfield this year, but I don't believe they'll be strongest o...

HRT didnt test last two years, made it to grid and beat Virgin. Who is to say Marussia wont do that this year? For the record, I hope they dont! I have a soft spot for HRT and really hope their new car is a vast improvement on the last two They are basing their cars on last year's models.... Yep......

I don't know that's so much that he started in a top team. For me it's that his more effusive fans will boast that other "greats" in the sport didn't achieve as much in their first so and so many years, not taking into account that the drivers he's being compared to spent their first couple of years...
