31/05/201931/05/2019 administrator Leave a comment

May 31 (GMM) Flavio Briatore has slammed the strategy mistake made by Ferrari in Monaco.

31/05/201931/05/2019 administrator Leave a comment

May 31 (GMM) Robert Kubica’s major sponsor is not yet willing to talk about 2020.

30/05/201930/05/2019 administrator Leave a comment

May 30 (GMM) Robert Kubica may be last at almost every race, but he says he has shown he can still race a Formula 1 car. Due to his permanent arm injuries sustained in a 2011 rallying crash, some doubted the Pole would be able to handle the twistiest circuits like Monaco. “I knew everything […]

30/05/201930/05/2019 administrator Leave a comment

May 30 (GMM) Using the full Mistral straight has once again been ruled out by organisers of the French GP.

May 30 (GMM) Sebastian Vettel has played down rumours Ferrari’s rear suspension layout is a major cause of the problem in 2019.

Wolff says 2019 clean sweep ‘not realistic’

29/05/201929/05/2019 administrator Leave a comment

May 29 (GMM) Toto Wolff has played down the notion that Mercedes could win every single grand prix in 2019. So far, the dominant German team is on track, with Lewis Hamilton winning four races and an on-form Valtteri Bottas the other two. Wolff, the team boss, backed Bottas to keep impressing in 2019, even […]

May 28 (GMM) Eric Boullier says he could return to Formula 1.

Hamilton rates 2019 performances as ‘average’

28/05/201928/05/2019 administrator Leave a comment

May 28 (GMM) Lewis Hamilton thinks he has been driving on only an “average” standard in 2019. In one sense, it is a remarkable claim given that the five time world champion has won four of the opening six races and is leading the championship.

28/05/201928/05/2019 administrator Leave a comment

May 28 (GMM) Dr Helmut Marko thinks the F1 stewards are too hard on Max Verstappen.
