PORE: Neuberg is free to talk It seems that Mr.Alexander has finally decided to bite the dust with David Neuberg, now allowing him to talk to other teams for next season. "We can't keep him here. We are barely making it to every race right now and it's unfair to keep him at the back. He deserv...

1. Alonso - lovely drive into the points, if a little lucky with first lap nutcases.

2. Magnussen - lovely drive into the points, if a little lucky with first lap nutcases.

1. Daneel Kivyat - Crashing at the front on lap 1.

2. Esteebaan Gooteeerrez - Crashing at the back on lap 1.

HM: Race stewards. Random penalties are random.

@We are still alive!@, claims Mr.Alexander It appears that PORE are still interested in competing next season, despite making only a token effort so far this year. With the rumour mill in full swing surrounding the team's future, Mr.Alexander is still very much in control and very much looking to k...

Bit of an update from the league and non-league teams around me: In League One, Gillingham have been at the top or very close all season and are currently 3rd, 4 points behind 2nd placed Wigan (who occupy the final automatic promotion spot). In the Vanarama National (5th tier): Dover Atheltic are cu...

Same nice colours coming through this year. RedBull: Pretty bland, don't know what the thought process was with that one, McLaren: It's just black, nothing else. Ferrari: I like it! Reminds me of 1993 and the Scuderia Dallara cars. Williams: Same with subtly differences. But still one of my favourit...

The First Lady of F1. RIP

All four spent several years away from MotorRacing before picking it back up and making it into F1?

AdrianSutil

I always like to see teams that usually have little or no chance of progressing, actually progress. Bit like seeing countires like Iceland, Northern Ireland and Wales in Euro 2016.

As for Arsenal, somehow we have pulled off a miracle and qualified. Giroud's first hat-trick too

AdrianSutil

Pretty sure it was the British GP. I'll say in 1974.

AdrianSutil

I can't be bothered to find a link, but Real Madrid have indeed been DQ'q from the competition. It's not Benitez's fault, don't teams of this size have an admin side that takes care of stuff like that??

AdrianSutil

Ok, couple of questions for anyone to answer: Firstly, having looked at the stats and figures (I assume they are correct at time of post), it shows Kingfisher (PORE) as having 382 credits? Is it possible to buy a new engine mid-season? Because this GREAT WALL engine stats are F-BEEP-ING TERRIBLE!!! ...

PORE begin rebuilding relationships, look set to compete. Mr.Alexander has wasted no time in reassuring his struggling team that he won’t abandon a sinking ship. “I’m here for the entire time this team is still competing. To walk away would be a real kick in the teeth for these guys. They spend man...

AdrianSutil

I don't see why when one mentions RedBull leaving, Toro Rosso is also mentioned. Yes, yes, I know they are heavily connected, but surely TR have enough resources and support by now that they can stand on their own two feet? They sort their own engines, drivers and car out and don't share a factory. ...

1. Sebastian Vettel - Drove a pretty brilliant season and took the fight directly to Mercedes on several occasions. Won 3 races and THAT LAP in Singapore Quali is a standout performance. Good job Seb. 2. Lewis Hamilton - We can forget the final three races because he was either hungover or not bothe...

PORE in serious trouble. Mr Alexander to make immediate return to save team It's been reported quite heavily recently that PORE are in serious financial trouble and are close to entering administration. However, the man who built this team from the ground-up has been forced to make a sensational re...

In terms of national coverage, you only get the top six tiers, and even then the vast majority is obviously reserved for the Premier League, with the Football League (tiers 2 to 4) next in line. The rest are only covered regionally and locally, and even then, your local town newspaper might only co...

Here in the South of England, F1 is commonly thought of. As is MotoGP, WRC and the BTCC. Nascar, Indycar, WTCC doesn't get a sniff...

Could work, but it would always have to stay 'banter' like for everyone's amusement and popularity. For example, there's a football team called Hyde FC who currently play in the 7th tier of English football and because they have a very jokey twitter account, they have more followers than most Champi...

I have received one gift. Will find something this week and mail it by Friday.

AdrianSutil

The speed differential entering the different sections would be massive as well. Thinking of Monza as an example - cars under heavy braking for the chicane vs. cars at full throttle cutting it out. Both on the same racing line is asking for trouble. Thought about that. You'd assume racing drivers h...

AdrianSutil

Wouldn't be able to work at some tracks anyway. Monaco obviously, would struggle to find anywhere for a shortcut. After the tunnel. Melbourne too. Better question with Melbourne is where at the end of the second sector could you not shortcut? Canada is another one. Final chicane. Plus, some shortcu...

Quite liked the look of the cars from that season. 2010 right?

AdrianSutil

K-Mag's at Manor would be a nice little surprise. Mercedes engine and a proven driver would make people sit up and take notice. However, I feel the team are going to fall away now Booth and Lowdon have handed their notices in

Rallycross has the Joker Lap system which was tried buy the Argentine TC2000 touring car series at is last race How long do we give before someone seriously suggests it for F1 Wouldn't be able to work at some tracks anyway.

Mianrdi was the most emotional because of how much they achieved with a tiny budget, and the drivers they brought into the sport: Martini, Fittipaldi, Alonso, Webber, Fisichella, Nicolas Kiesa... Jaguar was pretty terrible, as in terrible team all round. Brawn, not so much I don't think. Arrows, Cat...

AdrianSutil

It's hard to predcit because there's several drivers out there who could do the job but only in competitive machinery. Which at the moment is either Mercedes or Ferrari. Considering Hamilton, Rosberg and Vettel aren't leaving their teams anytime soon, that leaves Raikkonen's seat to potentially be u...

1. Nico Rosberg - How many times has he thrown away a win whilst under the slightest of pressures from Hamilton? Does he just start to freeze mid-race or something? 2. RedBull - For the first 15-odd laps, it looked like being a right battle for the win. Ricciardo looked proper FAST! And then dry wea...

1. Max Verstappen - Kids have no fear. Great, great drive. He's got to be in the top 3 drivers of the year. 2. McLaren Honda - Can't remember the last time McLaren were genuine midfield (Oh how sad it is to say). Battled well, deserved much more IMO. Honourable mentions: The race! Quality stuff. Ale...

So, it has now been confirmed that Ferrari will be introducing a 5th power unit for both drivers this weekend, as had been suspected earlier in the season. The decision has been taken to try and maximise their performance in the final four races by introducing their final upgrade package for 2015, ...

+1 Indy should be for the Indy 500 and nothing else personally. And I quite like the Austin track.
