Kimi cupping a feel.

That's a bit far from cupping a feel.

Ahh, but you'll notice that the team name is blank!

I'm hoping Sauber takes out ROTY. At this point, I wouldn't shed a tear if they fold. Yes I'm that vindictive.

That went right over my head. Is he a bit like Ice T?

Not to mention the indomitable Max Chilton...

Max Chilton is so great he's actually racing as two different persons: Max Chilton himself and Jules Bianchi.

In case you haven't seen this on Twitter: https://twitter.com/alo_oficial/status/324221105000833024/photo/1 Conspiracy theorists, STAND UP! I'm remaining seated for now - Webber and Alonso have been friends for a number of years, so it's hardly surprising to see the two of them together after the l...

"According to a statement from the team, Ma Qing Hua 'remains a core member of Caterham F1 Team’s driver roster and an announcement about his revised race plans in 2013 will be made in due course.'"

Can we just start the rumor that his sponsor hasn't paid up?

I feel like the humor was lost on some people... Unfortunately, without being able to give your post the right verbal intonation that would have indicated that you were joking, it's easy to misjudge what is meant to be a post made in jest with one that some think is serious. It's especially the cas...

Just being good isn't enough for Max. You gotta look good doing it.

Agreed. It just seems to be some standard thing trotted out to generate controversy in order to get more hits.

The lap times from that final stint from both drivers were interesting, but for different reasons. Excluding his outlap, Vettel's times in the final four laps were as follows: 1m36.81s, 1m37.26s, 1m38.21s, 1m40.05s. Vettel's times were actually dropping away a lot more quickly than you'd think - it...

In a race marred by craziness, MC kept his head together to finish in a strong 17th position and beat highly rated rival Giedo van der Garde.

Both drivers showed amazing promise in their first season by winning four races and finishing 2nd in the championship, giving their more experienced teammate a run for his money. Both drivers then won the title in their second season, clinching the championship in the last race. Their third seasons ...

I don't see how the tires are making the races artificial. Everyone gets the same tires; it's how they use them that makes the difference.

Bring back Kobayashi?

Back onto the topic of strategy, I wonder if Webber starting last is actually a blessing in disguise. Everyone agrees that those starting on (used) softs at the front will have to pit early, thus putting them back in the pack and perhaps hurting their genuine pace mid-race. The likes of Button and ...

Future F1 superstar Max Chilton out-qualified race winner and world championship contender Mark Webber by three positions today. While Chilton was driving an end of the grid Marussia, Webber drove a front running Red Bull.

LionZoo

Oh yes, very true. Now we have that rush to be the last man on track and that is causing traffic issues though. Anyhow, this isn't as bad as it used to be with the 2x1h 12 laps format where nothing happened until the end as well except the session was not 15 minutes but a full hour. Oh and then the...

There's definitely a conspiracy to keep MaxiAttack from dominating F1. However, I am confident he will rise past the oiling system sabotage.

I didn’t know about Godwin’s law until you mentioned it just now. Looks like I am going to lose quite a few discussions then since I often make references to WW2 (where appropriate of course). As I think it is surprising just how much one can still learn from it, like the point I was making about P...

Love it, I can just imagine Seb screaming at Marko "No, dont send me there! I'll be good! I promise!"

So we're starting a new campaign then?

No. I distinctly remember it was Nick Fry being a dick. Probably because SA showed him up. This is great news!

Ladies and gentlemen, we've had Buttonmania. We've had Lewisteria. But those are just warm-up acts to what is surely going to be the boy-bandesque craze of the century.

He is, of course. But that is also due to the huge expectations many had of him. Now he is also world Champion! And if it wasn't for him, you would be calling Sebastian Vettel a 4 time world champion. That is around 5,279 times (rough estimate) better than calling Jenson Button a one-time world cha...

Takuma's getting sponsored by Panasonic in the IndyCars for estimated 1.5 mill/season(?) and seemingly losing his seat at Rahal's team. There any chance they might get to Kamui with that sum should Taku not find another seat? Can Taku buy HRT's vacant slot on the grid and start Super Taku Racing to...

For those that watched the race highlights on the BBC, there was a American bloke's voice in the intro saying how F1 was much better than NASCAR, and even IndyCar. What I want to know is, did he say that by his own free will, or was he persuaded to by the BBC producers? Did BBC postrace also show a...
