That's precisely the problem for many.

Almost September and no Concorde Agreement, no tyre supplier for 2014 and no calendar yet..

What is the job of the head of the international racing federation if it's not being involved in racing series first-hand?

Todt's period as President of FIA started with such fanfare and attention thanks to his time with Ferrari, but in all honesty his time as President has been very quiet. I'm not sure what he has achieved or if he has achieved anything.

And he deserves a pat on the back for that :thumbsup:

Brought Pirelli onboard, that's all I can think of. But now he's failing to manage the Pirelli situation, so yeah..

WRC is a mess, and I don't like the FIA involvement with the ACO.

Don't forget that he's appointed Gerhard Berger to kill off any international junior formulae not affiliated with the FIA or FOM.

Interesting graphic showing 1st lap performance so far

Does it shows that Massa is a poor qualifier?

ellis · PostPosted: Thu Aug 29, 2013 9:37 pm

Vettel and Alonso only 2 never to have lost a spot on lap 1 this year.

Nice catch, didn't see that one.

Judging by that graph, Vettel needs to show his Red Bull mates how to start a race.

I find it astounding Vergne hasn't gained a place all year.

ellis · PostPosted: Thu Aug 29, 2013 11:49 pm

Sutil has lost more than webber. Was there one incident I'm forgetting, or is he consistently bad?

ryan86 · PostPosted: Fri Aug 30, 2013 12:02 am

Bahrain probably accounts for 2/3 of that.

Mäth · PostPosted: Fri Aug 30, 2013 1:21 am

Seems so

Schumifan · PostPosted: Fri Aug 30, 2013 1:38 am

Hamilton also has the highest average starting place though, so less places to gain.

kals · PostPosted: Fri Aug 30, 2013 2:03 am

Whereas Alonso tends to start lower end of top 10, which helps his figures. At Spa alone he was able to gain 4 or 5 places on lap 1.
