The season finale can only be downer compared to the excitement of the Brazilian GP. But it is what it is and the Formula 1 calendar concludes at the Yas Marina Circuit in Abu Dhabi. While the circuit looks good on paper, it has failed to deliver any exciting races in recent memory. The layout […]
The Brazilian GP should be the season closer in my opinion even though it’s not the best tourism location to promote the sport. It’s got an amazing layout with incredible racing history and often produces memorable race weekends, especially if it rains. The 2019 Brazilian GP weekend seemed promising with a wet start to the […]
The Circuit of the Americas tends to deliver some exciting races and has been a particularly strong track for Lewis Hamilton. It makes it an ideal location for the Mercedes driver to claim his 6th driver’s world championship title but that doesn’t mean he won’t have to fight for it. It was a bumpy start […]
The F1 circus arrived in Central America for the Mexican Grand Prix with the 2019 Constructor’s Championship already decided. The Driver’s Championship was almost decided as well with Lewis Hamilton enjoying a significant points lead over Valtteri Bottas but the Finn still had a mathematical opportunity. For the last two years, Lewis has won his […]
The Suzuka circuit is among the icons of Formula 1 racing and often known as the ultimate test for both driver and machine. It cuts across itself like an 8-loop with many types of turns, twists and still keeps you flat out on the throttle. After the result at Russia, Mercedes were looking to finalise […]
After their resounding team success at the Singapore GP, Ferrari were the main challengers to Mercedes’ winning streak at Sochi. The Silver Arrows were still the favourites to win but Ferrari’s pace in final practise and qualifying forced the defending champions to consider an alternative strategy. With no answer for Leclerc and Ferrari’s pace around […]
It’s been over 24 hours since the 2019 Formula 1 Italian GP came to its conclusion. My heartbeat still quickens as I return to the memory of those intense 53 laps around Monza, with a lone Ferrari leading the race, hunted by two Mercedes. What an epic race it was and I get to retell […]
Some days at work are a lot harder than usual, but you still need to be a professional and do your thing. It was that kind of difficult day for Charles Leclerc and many other drivers of the Formula 1 grid this Sunday at Spa-Francorchamps. In qualifying on Saturday, the timesheets were dominated by the […]
After the fantastic bit of racing at Silverstone last round, Germany just mic dropped on the whole season with the first wet race of 2019. The temperatures were reaching record-highs on Friday and Saturday which left the teams without any test data on how their cars would run in the wet on the intermediate and […]
After the high of the Austrian GP, things at Silverstone turned out even more exciting than everything this season had to offer until now. Fantastic battles spread throughout the race, a lot of ups and downs for fans of all teams and drivers, a great Sunday afternoon. Things got interesting in qualifying too when Valterri […]
