F1 Grand Prix 2008

No Change For F1…

November 20, 2008

Records were broken in the 2008 F1 season.  Now, for the first time in Grand Prix history, another record is broken.  Moving into 2009, all top teams will see their driver line-ups remain exactly the same as they did in 2008.

He’s actually the youngest ever world champion and more to the point, is Britain’s world champion – since Damon Hill back in 1996. In what was one of the most fraught and nervous races of the whole season, Hamilton began back in fourth – which would have been enough for him to take the [...]

Felipe Massa – A Cool Character

October 16, 2008

Things are more hot and sweaty in this year’s Grand Prix competition than they have been in a while – not least due to the controversy that Hamilton is causing.  Let’s put it in a little perspective though, he’s the new guy on the block and suddenly very few of the other riders are getting [...]

What Do You Mean, Hamilton Didn’t Win?

September 9, 2008

I don’t know if you saw the Belgian Grand Prix, but it was full of excitement.  That’s not actually true.  It was exciting in the way that F1 normally is.  Which is to say, lots happens at the start, there’s a boring middle where there’s a few changeovers thanks to pitting and then there’s a [...]

The Top F1 drivers of all time.

March 24, 2008

This top one hundred may raise a few eyebrows; one because Sir Stirling Moss has been named number one and the great Michael Schumacher has been placed outside of the top ten. This is because in he deals with the Ferrari F1 Team, many people claim that he demanded seniority over other drivers.
