I noticed recently that the naming format of screenshots in Dropbox has changed: the old format was “Screenshot 2020-08-01 08.33.15.png” but now it’s “Screen Shot 2020-08-13 at 6.58.02 AM.png”. Not then end of the world, I know, but annoying because my Screenshots folder is no longer sorted properly. Remembering there had been an update to […]
As expected it’s hot in Spain, hotter than it would usually be for this race because they’re in Catalunya later in summer than they would be in a normal season … and we saw how the heat affected tyres in the British Grand Prix and again last week in the 70th Anniversary Grand Prix. SAI […]

It’s the 70th Anniversary of the first championship Grand Prix in 1950 – the first one was at Silverstone (albeit a much simpler configuration) so it’s only right that we’re here again, just a week after the British Grand Prix. Last weekend’s race ended dramatically with some front runners suffering punctures: BOT dropped from P2 […]
There were a couple of investigations following yesterday’s Qualifying sessions: RUS under investigation for not slowing under yellow flags on the last lap of Q1 “Russell hit with 5-place grid penalty for failing to respect yellow flags in qualifying” “In addition Russell was handed three penalty points, the first he has on his licence. He’s […]

It’s not even two weeks since the Hungarian Grand Prix, but there’s been lots of talk about the pre-race anti-racism protests and HAM sharing a video linked to unfounded conspiracy theories about a coronavirus vaccination … so it’s really good to get back to some racing again!
