I have increasingly wondered if this will pan out with Intel buying the discrete graphics arm of AMD and it becoming the Intel discrete graphics...
This is absolutely correct, it was technically a racing incident on the basis of the rules and therefore no penalty by the FIA can apply to any of...
I have been critical of Grosjean's past driving habits but in this case the video and telemetry don't support the knee-jerk reaction that it must...
I I have seen many other drivers get penalised over the years for less than that at Monaco (Hamilton a few years ago bumping into Massa as I...
Barcelona has never been a track that makes for particularly good racing, even with DRS. They really should change the layout there to promote...
Interesting, further evidence we may see VW/Audi in F1 by 2018:...
Reading the link you put up, no where does it state that Wolff said that Kimi would have got past Hamilton with just one more lap though. Not...
Nope don't argue it at all, however who wins the manufacturers championship is of seriously little to no interest for me, never has, never will....
Really that is the best argument you can find to say that, "F1 is a joke," the betting odds? F1 is by no means perfect, there are plenty of things...
I already liked Kimi one of the few real characters out there, but that just raises my respect for him, it seems somewhat unavoidable given the...
T That sounds highly plausible although to be fair, despite my feelings that Christian Horner has been pretty hypocritical about this, it is...
Agreed, that Canada race by him was unbelievably good, if anything Button is possibly one of the most underrated drivers in F1. Everyone wrote him...
Except that none of the other teams have mentioned any specific technology to limit or ban that would not also harm themselves because they use...
That is very debateable in the case of bendy wings, the issue was that the FIA did not at the time have a garage test that was in any way...
Yes and in that context it seems a little unfair for people to be criticising Button's performance, in fact the opposite. For large parts of his...
Just to add, both Button and Alonso are known as very good development drivers, able to speak and communicate well with the engineers (a skill not...
Red Bull are annoyed that the FIA banned several technologies that gave them an edge when they were dominant but not currently with Mercedes on...
This was borne out in the race, clearly that car was essentially doing a yes run. Hamilton was imperious, never looked threatened. Nico looked...
I am going to say that Mercedes have a 0.6 second advantage which is actually bigger than it seems because this is a street track where usually...
The fact that several drivers say the crash is strange is not surprising. Every year (literally)there are examples of "strange" crashes, not least...
The only quote of another driver I heard was when Button was shown the telemetry of the incident he said, "that's odd." However he did not...
That BBC report, while not settling the matter absolutely definitively, seems to pretty much point to that this was most likely a normal loss of...
I suspect Mercedes is if anything sandbagging and while right now they would suggest a 0.8 difference is the margin I would take that with a huge...
I am not saying that there can't be anything more to it but I think you are perhaps a little too quick to jump on the conspiracy bandwagon. Given...
Fair point, however the risk of making a mistake is equal across all teams and isn't really a product of having more money so much as making a...
The other point about setting a limited number of gear ratios at the beginning of the year is that they have to come up with a compromise set of...
no,if you actually watch the amateur video of the crash the tower is literally at the scene if the accident...not probably 100 metres away...
Agreed except the tower is literally on top of the scene of the accident and the marshall was waving double yellows up to shortly before the...
Not true, if you watch the video while as the tractor starts to lift Sutils car and move it away the yellow falgs are being waved, they switch to...
I remember listening to reports from Martin Brundle of the last year Kimi was at Ferrari (2009)the last time round where all the Ferrari engineers...
Not one normally to believe in conspiracy theories, but it is starting to look very odd how virtually every pitstop for Hamilton is on average a...
If that is the case then the best spin you can put on it is that it is a semi-automatic system. In my mind that is no different to when they...
Honestly that rumour sounds extremely dubious to me. Only two reasons why suspension would be compressed, downforce or weight. By definition both...
I seem to recall Martin Brundle talking about this recently in that the packaging for KERS is extremely tight, fitting it within the body of the...
While they may have come up with clever engine management maps to effectively have, so called, "legal" traction control. The above observation is...
I have posted several times in the last 2 weeks however my post count remains 0. I have also posted a few months ago when I first joined the...
Many thanks Rys, yes I can see it now. :smile: I have actually been reading this forum for well over 10 years and always found some interesting...
So do I have to make a certain number of posts to see the RPSC forum? I am definily part of the group, however tbh I generally like to lurk and...
Not sure I totally agree on Alonso having the worst luck ever to be honest. Yes the penalty was harsh and the ruling took too long but Ferrari...
