It’s holiday time now in F1 and in a few days everyone will be off in all directions. I am headed to where the F1 sun casts no shadow: to get properly away from it all. And I have promised myself that I will not waste my energy on the return of Flavio Briatore and […]

Shockwaves reverberated around the world of Formula One when Lewis Hamilton confirmed his controversial switch to Mercedes away from F1 giants McLaren for the 2013 season.

Yesterday was a rainy drive home from Germany with a silly “umleitung” (diversion) in the Pfalz forest which resulted in nearly an hour of rally stages either behind chugging trucks or (more dangerously) swerving around on wildly twisting roads amid trees, cliffs and ravines.

Michael Schumacher?s 2010 comeback was somewhat abortive.� The results, the driving standard and the overtakes were well below par for the former champion.� He even let his team mate beat him for the first time in his career.� So why can Schumacher, the fallen Ferrari hero, win the world championship for an 8th time?

The German Grand Prix was dominated but Nico Rosberg, but most of the focus was not on the World Championship leader, but rather on his team-mate Lewis Hamilton as he fought his way from the back of the grid to third place, just behind second-placed Valtteri Bottas. It was a masterful drive. - We look […]
