Okay kids, picture this scenario: You are the Team Principal of Hispania Racing, the slowest team on the grid by quite a long way.

Last week, there were some rumours flying around saying that the GPDA would ask Race Director Charlie Whiting to split Q1 in Monaco as they were all worried about the effect which traffic would have.

It is hardly a small secret that HRT have had the hardest time of all the teams which made the grid this season. We all remember the brilliant shots of Karun Chandhok jumping in and out of his overalls in Bahrain as the mechanics literally built his car for him in the pits. Then, two [...]

With the domino effect that back-to-back Grand Prix’s brings, there is an awful lot of news out there this morning.

After their second race, lets see how the new teams graded shall we? Lotus F1: Grade C+ Although Lotus once again got a car to the finish in Heikki Kovalainen, Jarno Trulli didn’t even get to start. To be honest, with either HRT or Virgin F1 getting a car to the finish would have resulted [...]

We decided not to do the live coverage of the race as after only getting an hours sleep following the UFC 111 event that finished at 5:30am. That was a mistake. The 2010 Australian Grand Prix was absolutely incredible. There were scraps, crashes, safety cars, rain, drama, moaning drivers and last gasp runs. In case [...]
