Firstly, this was a couple of weekends ago… I’ve been busy working on other projects, stopping me from writing about this. However, it was a record-breaking race in many, many ways. This was Max Verstappen’s first win – and it owed a lot to the clash between the two Mercedes drivers on the opening lap […]
Nico Rosberg won his seventh consecutive race and Sebastian Vettel crashed – or rather was crashed into. https://youtu.be/GJKRtY5JdiY In Russia, another power unit problem hampered Lewis Hamilton’s hopes and Kimi Raikkonen was too busy fighting a Williams to pose a significant threat which had looked likely earlier on in the weekend. Nico Rosberg now has 100 […]
Nico Rosberg continued to develop his perfect start to the 2016 Formula One season by emerging as the winner at this morning’s Chinese Grand Prix – crossing the line more than half a minute ahead of Sebastian Vettel and Daniil Kvyat. This makes his championship lead 36 points ahead of his team mate Lewis Hamilton, […]
The first race of the 2016 Formula One season happened this morning. A few things of note came out of it. A win for Nico Rosberg to open the season. A huge accident, thankfully with no injuries. Points for the debuting Haas F1 team. Nico Rosberg took advantage of a misjudgement by Ferrari during the […]
One radio message sums up this race: “I’ve lost this race, haven’t I?” Those words, spoken by Lewis Hamilton after his team brought his in for fresh tyres towards the end of the race – with 15 laps to go – don’t show the anger and frustration that he did afterwards. This race was undoubtedly […]
Nico Rosberg finally showed some of the spark we saw last year as he took his first victory of the season in Spain. The Mercedes team dominated the race to take a one-two here. The German led away from pole and remained in the lead for the whole race. His team-mate Lewis Hamilton was second, […]
Lewis Hamilton took another step towards his third Championship with victory in the Bahrain Grand Prix, the fourth race of the 2015 season. He didn’t have it all his own way though – there was a credible threat once again from Ferrari after Sebastian Vettel’s shock victory in Malaysia. Mercedes showed a little bit of […]
After the hope of Sebastian Vettel‘s victory at the last race, Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes dominated this Chinese Grand Prix. Nico Rosberg had to settle for second place, ahead of Vettel and his team mate Kimi Raikkonen. The race was close at times, but never really came to life – much like the season’s opening […]
We arrived in Australia to a quiet welcome. No one had been expecting us to appear at all and it turned out we were quite unprepared… The Mighty Manor Motors are back. We had to cut some corners by modifying last year’s car, and Dave managed to find enough bits to make two cars, but […]
In the end this race, won by Ferrari‘s Sebastian Vettel, will be remembered as the beginning of a new chapter in his career. He will hope it provides him with a similar amount of success as his time at Red Bull did! Lewis Hamilton was on the back foot a bit as he had missed […]
