“Is that pole?” asked a surprised Lewis Hamilton on the radio. It sure was. Sebastian Vettel appeared to have it all sewn up after his first run in the final…
He didn’t appear to be suffering from Hungarian heatstroke, so we guess he was being genuine. Jenson Button, looking tanned and relaxed in the paddock yesterday afternoon, stated quite clearly…
You may remember that at the start of the season I wrote about the rise and rise of some talented young Danes, all of them beginning to attract some serious…
A scrum of camera crews and photographers push and shove to capture images of two blokes sitting at a table playing with Lego. Yes, it’s just another day in the…

Even before news of Mark Webber’s planned departure from Dietrich Mateschitz’s senior squad broke, the current internecine battle at Scuderia Toro Rosso possessed an edge its predecessor never did. @AussieGrit…

Think of a German F1 driver and almost everyone will say Michael Schumacher. Even now in retirement (x2) he is still the answer of choice before the current three-time champion…
Friends, countrymen, Romain… Sunday’s 60-lap Nürburgring nail-biter underlined many things, not least that Romain Grosjean is almost as hard to decipher as Lotus team-mate Kimi Räikkönen – albeit for very…
