Paston turns up to the paddock in a hire-car driven by someone else, car parks in wrong place, gets a 5 place grid penalty The chef in the Lotus hospitality area burns a steak that was meant for Pastor, gets a 10 place grid penalty Pastor is doing a post-qualifying interview and another journalist s...

Salo>Verstappen>Rosset I for one think his 1996 season was pretty crap, I'm pretty sure even Badoer in the Forti out-qualified him at Canada and that takes some skill to be that terrible... 1997? Well from what we briefly saw, he was at least a second slower than Sospiri in every session. So again, ...

Back to English football now... My main team, Arsenal, are looking very good for this year (before the inevitable injuries) after winning the Community Shield (which I went to). Next game is the beginning of the domestic season at home to WestHam (which I am going to). Signing Petr Cech has been fan...

Heads up people, clear at least 30 minutes of your day to complete this. Its long! I've done it, but didn't get to what I think are the important bits until near the end. Mainly cost-cutting and customer cars. A lot of this survey is about general stuff to do with how you spend your time watching F1...

If that is a legitimate quote, then hopefully people start to realise what's going on. Its a shame the sport is going round in circles.

AdrianSutil

McLaren. And only McLaren.

1. Maldonado. Looked very lively.

2. Sainz Jr. ToroRosso went derp on race strategy and race pace but still scored two points.

AdrianSutil

Well Manor will run tomorrow won't they? Even if it is for a few laps.

AdrianSutil

Why didn't manor take part anyway?

Just wanted to throw my 10 pence into the hat and say well done to both Biscione and Nuppiz for their obviously hard work in getting this site back online. I'll admit I'm not a big fan of the 'layout', especially as it takes a while for pages to load (iphone user with fibreoptic, so my end is fine),...

I remember having him in one of my alternative Championships with Gordini and did quite a bit of research on him to find out who he really was. Bit of a living legend in my eyes. A sad day.

RIP Robert.

Most of my favourites have already been mentioned but the Forti FG02(03?) from San Marino 1996 onwards was a nice, bright yellow.

This seasons Caterham was a looked too, from any view other than the front obviously...

I'm long beyond school and university life, but here seems as good a place as any to announce that I got engaged last Friday! Congratulations! Forum meet at your wedding? Yes, you have to invite the whole forum (don't worry, no more than about 200 of us will actually show up!). And with a multi-cul...

Is this the guy who went straight through the barriers at the famous corkscrew and landed on his roof? Remember seeing youtube footage of that, horrible crash. Seemed like he was destined for an excellent career.

AdrianSutil

That Simtek is achingly beautiful. I've always preferred cars with an unusual (as opposed to typical whites, reds and silvers) paintjob and smooth lines to be the best. Cant upload any pictures on this phone but think Prost AP04 (2000), first Simtek, Jordan 191 and the 1991 Lambo as examples of simp...

I think it'd be nice for someone to start a tribute thread to Enoch on the HWNSNBM. I don't think it would be appropriate for me to do it seeing as I haven't been on this website nearly long enough. maybe, and i thought about PM-ing him to say thanks for what he's done for the website/forum but he'...

AdrianSutil

Probably been mentioned before but Paul Belmondo's March stint in 1992(3?) is largely forgettable.

AdrianSutil

I personally couldn't give two-hoots about numbers. Hamilton could have 666 and I still wouldn't care. Have what you want, it's not going to change the racing is it. People moaning about it need to remember there's bigger things to worry about in F1 at the moment...

AdrianSutil

I wonder if anything will ever happen with this... I mean there's things like the MSV Trackday Trophy and the Ford Fiesta Trophy that are very reasonably priced...

AdrianSutil

Went and got my wheel-balancing done on my car Saturday down the local garage. When it was finished, Q2 was about to start so stayed and watched the rest of quali in the waiting room. several years ago, watched the final 20-odd laps of a race courtesy of a tv in an electronics shop which was in the ...

AdrianSutil

1. Will Stevens. For someone who i believe finished outside the top-3 in FR3.5, he aquitted himself very well. Plus the defending from Alonso gave me a smile. Didn't make a mistake all weekend and did better than most expected. 2. Nico Rosberg. That was such a heartbreaking moment hearing him tell t...

AdrianSutil

Fantastic photo. I believe at that very moment, poor Perry realised the suspension was about to collapse and slowed right down as he came out of Eau Rouge. And that was the last lap he ever did!

AdrianSutil

In about 4 hours time we will know who has won the WDC for 2014. Simple question, who do you want to win it and why? For me it's Hamilton simply because I'm a fan of him. Not taking anything away from Rosberg as he's an excellent driver but I think Hamilton has been the better driver overall through...

AdrianSutil

At least he managed to qualify. Good luck to him tomorrow.

AdrianSutil

I'm sorry, but paralysed?!

AdrianSutil

That'll be San Marino's first ever competitive point yes? Good for them. Although I still maintain that there should be a pre-qualifying group of San Marino, Andorra, Faroe Islands, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg and Gibraltar. The winner or top two teams then go into the main qualifying groups. Or even...

To echo a vast majority of members on here, I'm appalled at how the FIA and especially Bernie have dealt with that. I remember watching a quick interview with Bernie at Austin and he simply said "If they don't have the money to race, tough!" and to me that a shocking way to react to a team...

Behold. the worst excuse for underperformance I've heard for a long, long time . *Publicocrapometer explodes in background* wow. Now THAT'S a proper excuse... anyway, I've just realised that the BBC highlights will not be shown until around 11pm tonight and I'm up at 4:30am for work in Monday so th...

Congratulations to Grosjean. Seems like he's getting himself a baby factory. His poor girlfriend, i wonder if she's been outside in the last year...

Didn't expect this news when i got home from work. Hope they don't turn into another Toyota...

and yes, Lotterer or we riot...

AdrianSutil

Is/was Minardi the last small-budget team that managed to survive long-term in the sport as a small-budget team (i.e. say 5+ years)? If you count late-era Jordan/Midland/Spyker/early Force India, then them too. i wouldn't count that lot, especially as they had a new buyer every season, thus elimina...

AdrianSutil

So reports seem to be Bianchi has had one major operation to his skull/brain/whatever you call it, is breathing unaided and is in a 'critical but stable' condition. So all the world can do now is wait and pray Jules has some inner-fight. I've also recently seen the crash as a 'vine' on twitter just ...

What a devastating day

RIP

Midfield Raceway from GT3/4. It reminded me of a better AIDA.

Comparing commentators to Murray Walker is a bit pointless because no-one will ever be as good as him. However, David Croft brings an excitable-child way about him which does work well with the level-headed Brundle. They do work well off each other which is good to see. James Allen was thrown in the...

Which Formula 1 driver are you? Your Result: Kimi Raikkonen (#7) 88% You are the 2007 World Champion, Kimi Raikkonen, aka Iceman. Tell me, were you having a s*** when you took this quiz? You probably didn't give a s*** when you took it. You have a no-nonsense attitude about you, and you're in F1 f...

Grosjean, sadly.

1. Alonso
2. Ricciardo/Hamilton. Can't separate

HM: Wheel tethers!! Some high-profile smashes and not one loose wheel. Good to see.
