God bless you Jocke! I was supposed to be racing today but got stuck at work. This will make it bearable. Thank you!

I'm watching as well. Wish I was there...

Really good effort today not to smash the car in Q1.

Don't forget Maldonado is in the middle of the pack starting 13th.
Mayhem at turn 2!

What a guy! Marcus Ericsson. He sets a time good enough for 22nd on the grid for tomorrow, really good job for a rookie. And he was only 0.898 seconds off 21st place. He's going places this kid.

Last time Williams had a 1-2 in qualifying;
2 august 2003 - Hockenheim

Last time Felipe Massa was on pole;
1 november 2008 - Interlagos

Alright. Q1.

Go go go, Marcus!

From Psygnosis' "Formula 1" for PS1 and onwards, I have kept every single F1 game released for the Sony consoles. They're all in the closet somewhere. Nice collection to have. Formula 1 - PS1 I have had this game since around 1998, I go back to it once or twice per year. It's a good little...

Been there; Nico Rosberg I've driven the circuit before, that was more than ten years ago in F3: back when it was still called the A1 Ring! Pastor Maldonado I know the track, but it was maybe ten years ago when I last raced there and it will be new for me in an F1 car. Sebastian Vettel I have great...

I noticed the two most important drivers on the grid in 2014 chose to not wear sponsor caps during the press conference yesterday. Was this simply them avoiding messing that beautiful hair up or did it mean something more? Something important? http://i148.photobucket.com/albums/s20/jocke__1/nocaps_z...

So proud of Marcus today. Not one but two solid 22nd positions in FP1 & FP2 while improving all the time. Lap by lap. From being only 2.89 seconds behind teammate Kamui in FP1 he got to within 0.659 seconds of him in FP2. That's practically nothing! Kobayashi needs to prepare for war tomorrow. A...

I remember one race at the A1-Ring where a car had a strange DNF at the start/finish straight, the rear tyres locked up and the car spun around to a halt. Was it one of the BAR's? That was Olivier Panis in a BAR in 2002. He suffered an engine failure and it spun him out. Right, I was pretty sure it...

24h at the Nurburgring Nordschleife this weekend. I'll be watching. Nordschleife is a lot more exciting than La Sarthe in my opinion. There will be 175 entrants, 31 of those GT3 cars. Have a look at this incredible lap from last year, in the rain and during the night; Leh Keen's Rain Dance - 24 Hour...

Nick Chester “The layout requires a medium-downforce package for the car. In terms of demands it’s similar to Bahrain with some decent straights and then an infield section with medium speed corners. So it’s lower downforce than some tracks on the calendar. Pirelli’s track surface analysis points t...

Jocke1

Oh god, zip it Felipe. But on a positive side, I've wanted this circuit back since 2004. Is it exactly the same layout as it was for the 97 - 03 races? Yes, I don't believe anything has changed. I watched the 2011 & 2012 DTM races and the only changes that has been made are to the pits and padd...

Some of the more memorable moments for me are when; DC pushed Mika out at T2 and Mika rejoined 22nd only to finish 3rd after a superb drive. Add to that DC's failure at overtaking Irvine for the win, and it was an embarrasing weekend overall for the Scot. Schumacher was on fire in the pits and won t...

I was starting to lose hope for the man. But this is wonderful to hear. Never go back to Grenoble, Michael, nothing but bad memories there.

But I think I have said before - after a life changing injury, comparing life now to what you had before does not do you any favours. Instead we have to be positive about the fact that he lived, when he really should have died, and any quality of life he can get back is a cause for celebration. Nic...

And I often think of this Two Ronnies sketch whenever the Manx TT is on.. OK. This and this are my favourite Father Ted scenes... Been really getting into Flying Circus lately. I bought the '16 Ton Megaset' on DVD many years ago over at Amazon. Highly recommended. I forgot to mention Fry & Laur...

Question for Marco;

Is he the 'glass half empty' kind of guy, or does he look at it as 'glass half full' ?

Do they also have a well-groomed and blond-haired leader?

I'm really saddened to hear about Mayall's passing. The man was a comedic genius. I've spent countless hours the last two decades+, ever since I was a kid really, watching The Young Ones and Bottom.
