Re: Vote for Ferrari F1 car name

Voted for F166 Turbo.


I'd rather it just be F166 and drop the Turbo off the back
I quite liked the name F138, so F166 is sort of the same concept (surprised not to see a F146 there)

Re: Custom Driver Numbers To Make a Return - Confirmed

About Kimi choosing No. 7: I'm a huge Kimi fan, but I can't help thinking there's more to it that what he says. He won his (to date) only championship in 2007 in car number 7, and of course it's considered a lucky number in western culture. The latter bit I'm sure he doesn't care about, but I think...

Re: Custom Driver Numbers To Make a Return - Confirmed

It would be quite original if any of the drivers picked a non-natural number, i.e. 3.7, -2 or π. And quite impossible. Actually I tried looking it up in the sporting regs but can't find anything that would outlaw this :) As far as I can see there's only mention of "numbers". Well, at least a negati...

I would've put Alonso and Kimi closer together maybe even Kimi ahead of ALO, but very close. Then I'd put Rosberg ahead of Hamilton.

Re: Mock up image of RB10

As far as I understand the new regs, the teams don't have to have that ugly skinny bit on the tip of the nose, but the nose has to come down to a certain height off the ground and has to be a minimum width of course. Scarbs came up with this rendering because the designers want as much air under the...

Interesting take on it by James Allen: Ferrari were unaware of Raikkonen’s back problem when signing for the team, so this move was likely prompted by the heads at Maranello in order to ensure his fitness before pre-season begins in early 2014 .
