They say you can’t have too much of a good thing, and this being the longest ever Formula One season you would hope that would apply. However, in the last 8 weeks, we have seen 6 races. Some of them have been ok, a couple have been very good, but a couple have also been […]
Yet again, two weeks ago there was a Formula One race which I never wrote about. I’m sitting watching the first practice session for the Hungarian Grand Prix as I type this. I will certainly try to keep up to date over the Summer. The biggest talking point of the race was Nico Rosberg who […]
In another edition of “I meant to write this ages ago but life got in the way” I present to you my latest F1 update, two weeks after the event… ————————————————- Red Bull threw away a victory for Daniel Ricciardo, that’s what, leaving Lewis Hamilton in his Mercedes to collect the 25 points for the […]
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.

Points for the debuting Haas F1 team. Nico Rosberg took advantage of a misjudgement by Ferrari during the […]

But he needs to keep going for ten more races to equal the record set by Ayrton Senna. […]
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, […]
