Its been said for many years that the "Enstone" team in all of its former Benetton, Renault, Lotus etc guises was never able to run two cars equally.

I think Max already showed how to handle a car in the rain.

2012 please, 2001 is a bit overrated these days (I've seen it a good few times and unless FOM is going to crank out the F1 Digital footage, which I doubt, then it's the famous rainstorm that most of the cameras miss live (the top 5 just disappear on the broadcast footage and they get around to replaying what happened to them about 10 mins later. I definitely didn't find out everything that happened that day until I got the season review video that Christmas) then a long SC period, 5 laps of fun with the ferrari's carving through the field, then that's all she wrote, action wise

2012 was exciting all the way through and has been replayed a lot, lot less than 2001

but Max had a well made work by Adrian Newey, Jos had to go with scraps from Walkinshaw wasteland

So I know that a lot of us on here are becoming disillusioned with F1 (me included) but at least it has made me more interested in other forms of motorsport. I've always followed Moto GP from back in the mid 90s, watched on TV whenever I remembered, but recently I have been actively watching it (watching free practice and qualy) , sitting down to a race (at night time here in Japan) and cracking open a beer and enjoying some fantastic racing.....So um, thanks F1 for being so shit, I suppose???

That's the exact reason I became a champcar fanboy in the 00s
Imagine sitting through another parade at magny cours or Barcelona or whatever, then tuning into Eurosport in the evening to a tighter track that theoretically is harder to pass at (like mid ohio or laguna seca) and seeing CART put on some damn fine racing there...

I'll always watch F1 for various reasons, driver loyalties, once in a blue moon wet racing or those tracks like Spa that make any series good, but yeah, Oranges are not the only fruit

And no one is surprised

only worth of a partnership if they use a V12 that shakes the ground and can be heard on the whole track

Hardly surprising, but what for? Engines? Has Aston secretly been developing an in-house engine from the ground up no-one has ever heard of?

if anything it will be related to the rumors about RBR working on their own engine.

I'm more surprised Aston Martin can even afford it. Sounds a lot like the whole Lotus ordeal tbh

Gasly in, Kvyat out at STR as soon as the next race in Sepang

Seems 2001 won the vote, World-feed with ITV commentary (Murray Walker & Martin Brundle):

480p, really?

It's a genuinely good example of how quickly Liberty have turned the social media side of F1 around, that we are already annoyed about the quality of the full race upload rather than astounded that they just uploaded a full race for free - I'm not criticising; it was pretty much my first reaction too

(Incredibly, we didn't get true HD broadcasts until 2011)

quite astonishing that the first HD broadcasts of F1 races were done in movie theaters

in a few years it'll look quite nonsense


abot Kvyat, maybe he should put a dvr on his car to record what was happening

With all due respect, I know he's a legend, but Murray was fricken useless as a commentator in his old days. He's like an enthusiastic confused old person yelling over Brundle. We had the same with Heinz Prüller in Austria, thank god he was sent into retirement.

And they weren't even true HD, The F1 in cinema stuff was all upscaled SD.

Up until the start of 2011 the only true HD F1 broadcast's were the Japanese broadcast's of the Japanese Gp which FujiTV began producing in HD in 2006. The 2005 Belgium Gp was filmed in HD but the HD feed was never broadcast anywhere.


The reason i've always seen put forward for the lateness in going to HD was a lack of F1 broadcasters able to take a HD feed until 2011. Although they have gone 4K this year with as far as i'm aware only Sky UK taking that 4k feed.

Sky Germany is also broadcasting in 4K since Spa.

Ban plz

Video only uploaded for 19 days.
Nice try FOM, but you still don't quite get it.....
