AeroCraft Racing votes for Europe to host the series, and also wants to propose a single-seater series with powerful but cheap to build and easy to maintain engines and with a marked focus on aerodynamics with a unique wind-tunnel-equipped facility to test all cars. The technical regulations regard...

Himalayas Racing team boss Suraj Amatya is extremely impressed with his team's performance. Not even in his wildest dreams did he expect to pull off a race win! Even at a non-championship event this is vital in building momentum for the team's first proper race in the USA. It was surprising that the...

Team Name: Australian Racing Academy Team Nationality: Australian Team Owner: Mark Webber Amount of money to be invested in shares (Maximum 500k): 200k Following Mark Webber's retirement from F1 came the collapse of his backing of GP3 team MW Arden. Webber has instead decided to focus on creating a ...

Awesome idea, I'd be up for that!

AustralianStig

Despite his retirement in the last race (his first since Round 1!) Paul Dumbrell is producing some very consistent results, meaning he is only a few points behind team boss Greg Murphy, who is driving for far-superior Tasman Motorsport. I wonder if there's any way of trying to lure him back to the t...

AustralianStig

Wow, Paul Tracy's really making a runaway start to this season! Very happy with him and Craig Lowndes is proving a worthy backup!

AustralianStig

Any news on David Besnard driving for Greg Murphy Racing in the enduros?

We're willing to pay him $20k now if that will help him decide quicker.

AustralianStig

Tracy and Lowndes will continue to drive for the Holden Dealer Team, despite them both not finishing at Michigan.

AustralianStig

I vote Unipart - we'll need some incredible luck to score any points this season and going to a Ford engine sounds like a big step back.

AustralianStig

Just saw on Sky Sports F1's Twitter that Pat Symonds is leaving with immediate effect!

EDIT: Updated that he is joining Williams as Chief Technical Officer...should be interesting to see how that affects both teams!

AustralianStig

Whoa how on earth did Craig Lowndes go from 34th to 8th??

The Holden Dealer Team are very happy with their current line-up of Lowndes and Tracy and will be keeping them both on for the foreseeable future.

AustralianStig

No guts no glory - Dry Tyres.

AustralianStig

Apologies - for some reason I thought I had til the end of the week for this one.

I'll get it to you in the coming days.

AustralianStig

The lollipop men - what's up with two unsafe releases in one race...the second of which could have resulted in a fatality? 1. Webber's pit crew, specifically the RR man . This stuff up injured somebody. Seriously? His gun doesn't work and it's somehow his fault? We saw a lot of the same across all ...

AustralianStig

Yes! Mountain power!

3rd and 4th hours for Himalayas Racing sent

AustralianStig

Option A - let's take the advantage sooner rather than later.

AustralianStig

So Holden Dealer Team have a road course specialist (Lowndes) and an oval specialist (Tracy). I can live with that!

AustralianStig

Heck yes, I've been hoping someone would run something like this for ages!

AustralianStig

I'm trying to keep my post count below 1000, just so I always look like a noob.

But in other news, good luck to Mark in the WEC. I have to admit watching F1 is going to be a lot less frustrating now...unless Ricciardo goes to Red Bull and then I'll be all stressed about HIM doing well.

AustralianStig

Option A.

AustralianStig

Seeing as Bugatti Circuit has so much full throttle action, I decided to go for a massive inner-city circuit that still had plenty of high speed sections and sweeping corners.

Have any good documentaries ever been made with season reviews for all the F1 seasons? As I only started watching F1 in the mid 2000s I don't have the greatest knowledge of the historic seasons. I have read a few books but it's just not the same as seeing extended highlights of all the races from ye...

AustralianStig

One poor result does not a poor car make.

I vote to leave the wing alone.

AustralianStig

Greg Murphy Racing would like to offer David Besnard the opportunity to drive in the enduros.

No money is on the table at the moment, but may be negotiable if that's what motivates him!

AustralianStig

Thank you to BP for sponsoring me and giving me the opportunity to race in this competition. I knew I could do well with financial backing, which is what they provided for me. Might I mention that my vehicle runs on BP fuel, which gives it more power, less emissions and greater reliability. Did I m...

Himalayas Racing team owner Suraj Amatya collapsed onto the couch in the team motorhome, exhausted. Trekking an entire team from somewhere near Mt Everest to the streets of London was no mean feat. Finally they could not only say that the team were there but they had arrived. Qualifying one car in t...

According to Twitter they won't be:

As much as I love Ricciardo, I really hope it's Raikkonen - seeing Kimi racing Vettel in similar vehicles would be very entertaining.

AustralianStig

Awesome! Can't wait for the British GP after that performance.

AustralianStig

JEV, as much as I'm pained to admit it he out-drove Daniel in every part of the weekend, and 6th in a Toro Rosso is no mean feat.

AustralianStig

Giedo van der Garde - lapped cars don't turn in on front-runners - it's pretty simple.

Honourable mentions for Williams - surely if a Toro Rosso can manage 6th place Williams can at least get into the points after starting 3rd. Give Bottas the car he deserves.
