Re: RIP Sir Jack Brabham
Very sad news, RIP. It is important that as many stories, memories and anecdotes from the older generations are collected before it's too late. It won't be many years down the line before very few of the chaps from the 50s and 60s will be left and we need to make sure we remember them in the best po...

Re: Get Ready for... The ChiltonCraze!
So I'll be doing the British GP again this year, after one of my mates double-booked himself for Le Mans, and today I went and bought a nice England flag which will be a canvas to show my appreciation of Max's performances. If you imagine the Cross of St George, and the four white quadrants, I'm th...

In the 3 years that HRT raced in Formula 1, the only driver who managed to finish a race on the lead lap was Pedro de la Rosa. He did so once at the 18th race of 2012, Abu Dhabi, finishing 17th and last on the lead lap. 1m 11.778s behind winner Kimi Raikkonen. That was the only time in 56 Grands Pr...
