Let's be positive and dream. Imagine a season where Vettel is using every last bit of his talent to chase and regularly beat the Mercedes. He's taking awful risks to get there, so much that he crashes hard and has to sit out a few races. Out of sheer willpower, he makes a miraculous recovery and com...
The 'all manor of open wheel racing going on most weekends' doesn't have a live TV audience running into the tens of millions, this isn't about safety, it's about them wanting to be seen to be doing something because they're scared to death of what will happen to their viewership figures should one...
Bernie now seems to have decided that he agree's with the drivers "A million percent" that F1 should be about car & driver pushing flat out at all times & that he's going to tell Pirelli this at the next meeting. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/35423688 Let's stand back a litt...
https://i.imgflip.com/yl3zd.jpg Joke aside, list of drivers this device would definitely have helped: - Justin Wilson - Henri Surtees List of drivers this might have helped: - Jules Bianchi - Felipe Massa List of drivers that escaped their accidents just fine, but could have been injured by the hal...
Is it an idea to have one single topic for streams? It's such a clutter in the race topics. Try this site: http://lshunters.tv/ or the one in my signature http://www.batmanstream.com/motor-sports-live-streaming-video-2016.html It's also good for all kinds of sports. Has all the events for a given d...
The problem is the gaps between the teams. There is no way Ferrari can catch Mercedes, no way for TR or RB to catch Ferrari, etc. etc. This indeed, and the fact that nowadays it doesn't matter to start 1st or 4th. You'd rather save tyres and get a good race strategy in, plus you can pass on track s...
I agree JJ, although you may want to factor in the hurdles coming from peer/societal pressure and education, which take longer to change even in the absence of any regulations. When this subject comes up I always think of this curve (my physics teacher would kill me for not putting labels on axes, s...
I really hope someone goes full troll on this one by putting on some mediums while on the lead, and proceeding to block the field for the whole race until something crazy happens.
I have the feeling that the FIA, as a regulating agent, should have no incentive in making it easier for the participants? Take the UCI for example. Mandating helmets is okay for the cyclists safety. But the excessive curbing we see in slow safe corners (for example at Monaco, or at the exit of slow...
Can we hold on for a minute, I need someone who actually knows their shit to explain what's going on in that picture. The house below looks decent enough. Is it some construction practice? Are they putting it on? Taking it off? It looks a lot like the temporary covers they sometimes put in Paris whi...
OMG have you guys seen Rosberg's onboard analysis on Sky? He didnt even turn the wheel to meet the apex, went straight on before turning very late. My opinion is that he tried to do like Hamilton did to him at Austin turn 1 last year, but missed because he was too far behind to run Hamilton off the ...
Lewis Hamilton did not lie about his relationship with team-mate Nico Rosberg Taken out of context this sounds like some sort of buttsechs allegations. Come to think of it, the on-track shenanigans could be unresolved things in bed and sexual tension between the two. Come to think of it, there's al...
