My change: have the Monday following each race (save the street races such as Monaco) as a test day for the teams. Put the ticket prices at something like 10 Euros or something so people can come watch.

Works very nicely for MotoGP, think it would work well for F1.

This one got to me as well, but I must admit that it's sadness mixed with anger. First off, obviously this is terribly sad. Moments like this make everyone sit around wondering why the hell they love the sport so much when it can do this to people and take away husbands from wives and fathers from k...

As expected, Toby Moody has written a wonderful piece for Autosport regarding yesterday.

I believe it's free - if not I will copy and paste. Last line sums it up beautifully:

I cannot believe I've had to do this, especially for Marco Simoncelli.

Does MaTT still post here? Somebody wrote this in another forum: "We delivered some parts to Merc yesterday - there is a huge buzz about the place, everybody looking very happy, the last time I saw that at the place was under the Brawn name. Make of that what you will." Well, let's hope s...

I'm off to a BBQ in Brackley later!

Making only two stops when pretty much everyone else made three: Excellent.

Taking your first win: Incredible.

Making a load of armchair experts look stupid: Priceless.

I for one admire them for putting their staff ahead of Bernie and the Bahrain Royal Family's image concerns. Plus, as said before, after the race they can head straight for the airport, whereas after FP2 tonight they will need to go across town towards the hotel.

Because Brazil isn't in a state of civil war, where innocent protesters were shot whilst protesting peacefully and then the doctors attending them throw in jail for 'conspiring against the monarchy'.

In Brazil it's a police and crime issue. In Bahrain it's a political and humanitarian one.

Reasons I don't like Dario? He's not a racer. He complains like hell when someone puts a strong racing move on him but then doesn't think twice about putting a marginal one on someone else. See Toronto last year. He's a talented driver and in terms of talent deserves his victories. I just don't like...

It was a 50/50, and throws up the depressing fact that squeezing someone off the circuit when they're pretty much alongside (as Maldonado clearly was, well into the apex of the corner) is deemed 'fair play' nowadays. It isn't. Would it have seemed fair if there had been grass instead of tarmac where...

Is it Matt that works at one of the teams? maybe he can confirm, I'm pretty sure the throttle is connected to the ECU which controls the engine, there's no actual physical connection between the throttle and the fuel injection system (no throttle cable so to speak, hence the nickname 32bit throttle...

McLaren would settle for points finish in the Australian Grand Prix. - Autosport Well that's promising. I believe Ferrari also said that they weren't going to fight at the front? So just RBR, Lotus and perhaps Mercedes then? Mercedes and Red Bull chased by Lotus, with Ferrari a bit behind, then a r...

Think he'll probably pass on that - suspect he quite likes being able to drive out of the pits with his front right tyre attached!

The way I see it is this. Webber was pissed off because, had he known Vettel wasn't going to obey, he might have not let him close so much. He didn't necessarily need team orders to stay ahead - being told there were orders put him in a vulnerable situation. He proved in the second stint he could ru...

Well, at least we agree on Martin Whitmarsh :lol: Look, let's just agree to disagree on this one. Obviously a lot of my reasoning is down to things I can't say even on a password protected forum, and as ever I respect your opinions as you're one of the folks here who really knows their stuff. I'll j...

All Hamilton has is a whole bunch of ifs. If Rosberg hadn't caused the yellow. If he'd managed to go quicker on his last lap. If the team had called him in earlier. If he'd not got something in his eye. Just like Rosberg only had ifs after Bahrain and Spain - if he'd made a move stick, if he'd manag...
