Grand Prix of Portugal – Race
Despite being fifth in the points standings, BOT is on pole and aims to join the battle at the front. An hour before the start of the race, reports are that it’s warmer and less windy than Qualifying – the blustery conditions yesterday contributed to some drivers struggling and a lot of lap times deleted […]
Grand Prix of Portugal – Qualifying
Two weeks after the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix in Imola, F1 moves to Portimao in Portugal. The Imola race was another exciting one, and it didn’t end with the chequered flag! The provisional result was: VER, HAM, NOR, LEC, SAI, RIC, STR, GAS, RAI, OCO … but then came the post-race penalties: STR was given […]
F1 points standings after Imola GP

Emilia Romagna Grand Prix – Race
An exciting Quali session resulted in a slightly different grid: HAM, PER, VER, LEC, GAS, RIC, NOR, BOT, OCO, STR, SAI, RUS, VET, LAT, ALO, RAI, GIO, SCH, MAZ, TSU* (*TSU did not set a lap time and will need to appeal to the stewards to be allowed to race) The start should be interesting […]
Emilia Romagna Grand Prix – Qualifying
The race is officially called the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix but most people will recognise it as the Imola GP, but not the Italian GP because that’s at the Monza circuit in September. Whenever F1 returns to Imola it’s always a chance to remember Roland Ratzenberger and Ayrton Senna who died in 1994, in qualifying […]
Seven Free Must-Have macOS Apps
I keep seeing similarly titled “articles” in my recommended reading feeds, so I thought it’s time for me to write my own list of “Must-Have macOS Apps” post 🙂 Having just set up a new MacBook Pro, I can tell you exactly which handful of apps I felt were essential: Dropbox We have corporate-approved tools […]
Photo updates, March 2021
Most months recently I’ve posted the one or maybe two cat photos I’ve taken, but not this month! Nope, the only shot I took was of some artwork we bought for our wedding anniversary but I shared it to mark my 20th anniversary of moving to Canada! [My monthly round up posts on this site] […]
Grand Prix of Bahrain – Race
In case VET’s season wasn’t off to a poor enough start, he’s been given a 5-place penalty for ignoring yellow flags in qualifying… although he only qualified P18 so it’s effectively only a 2 place drop. The revised grid: VER, HAM, BOT, LEC, GAS, RIC, NOR, SAI, ALO, STR; PER, GIO, TSU, RAI, RUS, OCO, […]
Grand Prix of Bahrain – Qualifying
It feels like a long time since the end of the 2020 season, but maybe that’s because I was counting down to Melbourne before it was postponed. Well, it’s go, go, go in Bahrain! Alonso wonders why interviewers keep asking about his age … meanwhile: 10% of the grid in Bahrain have fathers who raced […]
