The FIA are considering implementing a sort of football style penalty system, with drivers gathering enough points over a season being banned for a certain period of time. FIA are apparently running the system in the background to see how things would work out hypothetically. Thoughts?

Sharkattack

Hey guys. Simple thread, just predict what you think the career moves of our current crop of young drivers will be, to which teams they will go, and for how long they would stay. Let's say any driver under 28 as of today counts. I'm quite keen to see where you guys think our young stars will end up....

Sharkattack

Taking our current grid, definitely Kimi Raikkonen.

Sharkattack

The loss of any driver, no matter what he had achieved, is truly a sad and sobering experience. I never saw these two race, but I have the utmost respect for them, and the fact that we remember them 19 years later is a testament to the impact they made on all followers of this great sport. Sleep tig...

The big FOUR: Fernando Alonso: He is incredibly tough and never gives up. He is very hard to deny and is consistent while also dealing with car issues very well. Probably the best driver on the grid IMO. Kimi Raikkonen: Tough to rattle and has great racecraft. Can set a series of quick laps in the r...

Sharkattack

I like Lewis very much, but I'm afraid he is not Michael, definitely not at this point.

Sharkattack

I was just wondering what you guys get up to in your living rooms when you watch the end of a race on Tv? For me, if my favourite driver wins,I jump off the couch, throw my arms up and scream "Driver X wins!" If a driver I dislike wins, I politely clap at the television a few times, and if a favouri...

Sharkattack

Mark Webber has been quoted in the press as saying that he has a "great camaraderie" with Sebastian Vettel, despite what happened in Malaysia.

What do you guys think? Genuine words or the RBR PR Machine spewing out garbage? Discuss

Sharkattack

I never got to see Senna race, as I wasn't even born when he died. But I do remember asking my dad (An F1 fan of 30 odd years) to tell me about him when I first heard the name "Ayrton Senna". All he said to me was: "He was quick. You could see, even on TV, that he was quick. There was always a touch...

Sharkattack

Agree. It generally just leaves doubt in everyone's mind.

Sharkattack

Wojo, if you KNOW the answer (or you think you do) why ask us mere mortals? All you're doing is wiping valid views off the the table with comments like "no" and "they won't"

Sharkattack

I know that the podium interviews are generally an awkward affair for everyone involved, but I was quite surprised at some of Sebastian's comments up there today. Something about being able to remember since the bottle had no champagne in (which nobody found funny) and then talking about how nice it...

I was researching the stats concerning Fernando Alonso the other day, and found the following basic stats on him as pertains to the all-time rankings of F1 drivers: 201 races (200 starts) Number of Wins: 31 wins, tied for fourth place overall with Nigel Mansell Number of Podiums: 88, 3rd place overa...

Sharkattack

R2W, the reason I created this unique thread was simply because I wanted to hear from all of you, Kimi fans or no. After all, trying to convince his fans that he's top class isn't that hard, hence this thread. Thanks for your comment, anyway

Sharkattack

Hi guys. I've thought about the matter for a while now, and I've decided that Kimi Raikkonen, to me personally, is a very underrated driver. Here's why: There's often this thing floating around about the "BIG THREE" i.e. Lewis, Fernando and Sebastian. I think that's harsh, because, simply, Raikkonen...

Sharkattack

Who do you think was the star of today's race? A few suggestions, in no real order: Alonso: Qualifies third but ultimately dominates and wins comfortably Raikkonen: Recovers from a bad start and the Perez incident to hold off Hamilton Hamilton: Keeps fighting bravely and holds off Vettel despite not...

Sharkattack

It's a great joy to me that on this forum, even thought we argue over so many things, we can join together and wish Ayrton a happy birthday. I never saw him race but I stand in awe of his legend. HAPPY BIRTHDAY, AYRTON SENNA! May you be forever immortal! Who ever thought that the "Sao Paulo taxi dri...

Sharkattack

Hi guys. Recently, I saw this advert on my TV that congratulates Sebastian Vettel on becoming Champion again, and in the video, Christian Horner says "Against all the odds, Sebastian became Champion..." Now, I personally don't agree with this, as it became quite clear to me towards the end of 2012 t...

Sharkattack

Rick M, thanks for that, and thanks for taking the time to think about your answer

Sharkattack

Haha oh yeah, I remember something about her trying to have him Speed voted the best driver of all times!

Anyway seriously though ashley, according to the 2012 figures, who got what?

Sharkattack

Oh ashley, I have such respect for your posts and honestly read all of them, usually agreeing. Can't you just get this little joke?

Sharkattack

Haha, perhaps next time I'll add an option that says "I'd rather back myself to charge around in an F1 car at over 300 kmh, ignoring the option of choosing someone who gets paid millions to do it and does it every second weekend."

Sharkattack

Silverstone Regular: Vettel is on the list. Please check again. Try the fourth option. Also, just to be clear, few people on here would really place their lives in someone else's hands, but then again we all fight for our favorite drivers like our lives actually depended on it!

Sharkattack

So, basic stuff here guys. Imagine a series of 10 races on a given track,not one that really exists though. The cars are identical but can be set up for driver preference. A race weekend includes both qualifying and the race. Basically, the only differing factor is the drivers. Your survival lies in...

Sharkattack

This is obviously just a response to the "Who would beat Vettel as his teammate" thread, but ok. Concerning Lewis. I'll do some drivers. Sebastian Vettel: This might be close. Both are quick, but both are slightly fragile mentally at times. If we were able to exclude reliability failures for both dr...

Sharkattack

@ Balibari thank you for that post. The last paragraph especially was a bit of a "eureka moment" for me. Another driver who can be classed in the "Wins and FLs over poles" category is Kimi Raikkonen. He has, if i remember correctly, 19 wins and 37 FLs but only 16 poles. If memory serves, even in 201...

Sharkattack

Hi everyone. I've been watching F1 properly since 2008, and so I don't know every tiny detail about F1 in the past. I've often heard my dad talk about the F1 of days gone by and been told some stories about Senna/Prost. So, I have some questions that I'd like people who were there and who actually w...

Sharkattack

I know this doesn't count as a proper statistical trial, but IIRC Michael Schumacher beat Narain by 6 odd seconds in the ROC Nations Cup. Of course, we'd have to do many more races to form a true idea of who is faster and by how much. My personal opinion is that Narain is quite a bit slower than for...

Sharkattack

A better question might be: "Should RBR have offered Mark a new contract?" For me, the answer depends on your view. In terms of actual team performance, i.e. taking "Humaness" into account, maybe keeping Mark around to be number 2 to Sebastian isn't a bad idea. After all, three WCC's don't lie, do t...

Sharkattack

They say that in F1 the first person you have to beat is your teammate. I'd like to hear your thoughts on who won their respective teammate battles this year and by how much,using the following example as a guide: Team XYZ: Driver A vs. Driver B. Winner: Driver A,+1/ +2 / +3. Here's what those numbe...

2013 Teammate battles I am excited for: McLaren: Jenson Button vs Sergio Perez Why: McLaren's number one faces off against their new young gun. Jenson will be keen to stamp his authority while Sergio will work hard to show his quality. I expect Jenson to be better initially but Sergio will catch up,...

Sharkattack

With the 2013 grid taking shape, there are, in my view, some interesting battles between teammates to look forward to. Feel free to share and discuss the teammate battles you most look toward to next year!

Sharkattack

Got the idea from someone in another thread.We're all always arguing over it, so tell the world, WHO is the best driver currently on the grid? And why? No bashing please, neither of drivers or each other.

Sharkattack
