F1 » Hamilton: Red Bull the strongest car


@Pole Position - no, McLaren have been winning the races on circuits that better suit their car. Spa and Monza are typically difficult for Red Bull (not always, but usually). Suzuka is prime Red Bull territory. Without seeing any practice times yet, I would predict that the RB8 will indeed be the car to beat this weekend.

F1 » Hulkenberg stays quiet over future


I get the very strong impression from Hulkenberg's comments that he is on the move. Perhaps not to Ferrari, but moving none-the-less. When a driver is staying put, they very quickly hose down questions from the media. Ambiguity generally means they've got something up their sleeve. Good on him. I hope he gets a strong car next year, wherever he is.

F1 » Massa: Results the most important thing


"Massa: Result the most important thing" Is anyone else sick of headlines written by Captain Obvious? I agree with earlier posts that Ferrari need to hurry up and just name their 2013 lineup. I know he says otherwise, but the insecurity of 2013 has to be playing on Massa's mind and that is certainly not conducive to strong results. If Ferrari want to win a WCC sometime soon, they need a much stronger second driver.

F1 » Hulkenberg 'not certain' to stay


@kylie - that's a very good point. Hulkenberg and Perez have the same amount of F1 experience, but Perez has far better race results. Signing Hulkenberg would leave egg all over Ferrari's face. I don't really mind where Hulkenberg is in 2013, so long as he's on the F1 grid! I'm still very impressed by his pole position in Brazil in 2010.

F1 » Hamilton maintains McLaren backing


Of course McLaren are going to keep pushing with Hamilton for strong results, there's a truck-load of money on offer for finishing higher up the constructor standings. Also, having Hamilton finish with a driver's championship at McLaren is still a notch in McLaren's belt. I don't understand how this is news. It would be news if McLaren were to shaft Hamilton from this point, but they're smarter than to cut their nose off to spite their face.

F1 » Petrov halts talks on F1 future


@Josh - I'm not suggesting that a driver doesn't need backing to break into F1, nor am I suggesting that most drivers don't bring money in. I am disagreeing with your ascertion that there is no driver on the grid that would remain if their backing were to cease. Do you honestly believe that if Alonso lost his personal sponsorship that Ferrari would drop him? He is far and away the best driver currently in Formula 1 and Ferrari don't need the money like Williams do, for example. Follow your logic through - if money talked in absolute terms, Maldonado would be driving for RBR, Macca or Ferrari. There's no way Webber can match Maldonado's sponsorship, so why does Webber have the better drive? Because he is the better driver.
