Ladies and Gentlemen:
The weekend has started with Nico in the lead in both Friday’s sessions. Home-race favourite Lewis was only 7 hundredths behind him in P1 but could not get better than 4th in P2 thanks to a mistake in his low-fuel run. Ferrari, with RAI ahead of VET in both sessions split the Silver cars in P2 and according to boss Arrivabene they ‘are not showing their cards until tomorrow’. HAM was not happy with his set-up although he was the fastest on the prime tyre (hard /orange, the optionread more

Ladies and Gentlemen,
The British GP is coming up this weekend, the 9th round of the Championship in the legendary Silverstone Circuit. Let’s get ready.
As many of us probably know (and participated), the Grand Prix Drivers Association conducted an online survey asking fans their opinion on F1 racing. The general response described the sport as ‘boring and expensive’ and want change but ...
2015 Austrian GP - Results - Rodrigo is flying by Cato Batista, 22/06/2015 4:51:18 Ladies and Gentlemen, And yet another Mercedes one-two, but this time Nico had a perfect take off to grab the lead at the first corner and went on to celebrate his 30th birthday in style winning his 3rd GP in the last 4 races. Williams took for the second consecutive time the third step of the podium, this time with MAS. VET was delayed in his pit stop and couldn’t catch the Brazilian to reclaim his customary 3rd place. BOT and HUL drove their usual excelent to finish 5th & 6th. It was the typical 2015-style race, meaning not very exciting but with a good dose of wheel to wheel racing in the mid-field. ALO and RAI tangled in the opening lap in dramatic fashion but fortunately without consequence for any of them, but the accident added more fuel to the rumors that Kimi is on his way out of Ferrari. (it was his ...
2015 Austrian GP - Race by Cato Batista, 20/06/2015 18:27:09 Ladies and Gentlemen, Mercedes has now being on pole for an entire race calendar, their 19th in a row, 7 out 8 of for HAM this season. But it wasn’t as easy as it sounds, it was a very eventful QF session. The showers that interrupted P3 left the track still wet by the time Q3 went underway making tyre choice very difficult under the tricky changing conditions. Notable victims in the first cut were RAI and PER. Then on final moments of Q3 both Mercedes drivers ended up in the gravel under pressure trying to take pole from each other. VET qualified behind them as expected almost 3 tenths clear of MAS as the Williams were not fast enough to repeat their 2014 performance, in fact the surprise on the day was HUL in 5th splitting the white cars, the Force India driver still hot from his 24 Hours of Le Mans victory last weekend. Teenager VER has been consistently top 10 in all sessions, his spectacular ‘F3 driving style’ somehow working well around this short circuit, he’s 7th, the best Renault powered car just a blink ahead of KVY in 8th -the Russian will start 17, see below-. Last 2 making the shoot out were NAS in 9th and GRO in 10th, the French not going out at all in Q3 in the ...
