VET had a poor Qualifying session, ending up P9 but thanks to the penalty handed to OCO (for failing to slow sufficiently for red flags in FP3) he’ll start P8. Revised grid: HAM, BOT, VER, RAI, GRO, HAR, GAS, VET, PER, LEC, OCO*, MAG, SAI, STR, RIC, HUL, SIR, ALO, VAN, ERI It’s warmer and […]
Hot on the heels of the Grand Prix of Russia, it’s time for the GP of Japan. Unfortunately that means it’s on in the middle of the night, so I won’t get to watch qualifying or the race live – I just need to avoid the internet until I have a chance to watch the […]
September was busy, as you can see by the number of albums below. A lot of rugby, of course, and a quick trip back to England where I almost saw another rugby match! 🙂 Toronto Wolfpack vs London Broncos – Super 8s England trip Toronto Wolfpack vs Toulouse Olympique – Super 8s Toronto Wolfpack vs […]
There are a lot of penalties to apply, and Qualifying session 2 (Q2) was a bit pointless as there were 4 drivers getting grid penalties and one making a tactical decision to qualify P11 so they’d have a free choice of tyres for the race. The grid without penalties: BOT, HAM, VET, RAI, MAG, OCO, […]
There are still 6 races left of the season, so HAM’s 40 point lead over VET in the Drivers’ Championship standings is far from a comfortable gap. In F1 news since Singapore: The draft 2019 calendar was announced; there are 21 races listed, including Hockenheim and Suzuka [autosport] Sauber announced current Ferrari reserve driver Antonio […]
The final home game on the Super 8s Qualifiers (unless we’re in the Million Pound Game, i.e. the playoff between 4th and 5th place) was against Widnes Vikings, who play in the Super League. However, despite being in the top league, Widnes were bottom of the Qualifiers table and Toronto were in fifth. No Super […]
Toronto had beaten Toulouse both times they met during the regular season, but both teams were really fired up to win this Super 8s Qualifiers game as they were on equal points. Toulouse opened the scoring with a penalty goal, but it was a very even first half, ending 8-8 after forty minutes. The HT […]
Five races since Silverstone: Germany: HAM, BOT, RAI, VER, HUL, GRO, PER, OCO, ERI, HAR Hungary: HAM, VET, RAI, RIC, BOT, GAS, MAG, ALO, SAI, GRO Belgium: VET, HAM, VER, PER, BOT, OCO, GRO, MAG, GAS, ERI Italy: HAM, RAI, BOT, VET, VER, OCO, PER, SAI, STR, SIR (following GRO’s disqualification) Singapore: HAM, VER, VET, […]
An unexpected front row – most people (including me) seemed to think Ferrari would take P1 and probably P2, but instead they’re P3 and P5 after HAM put in a stunning Qualifying lap! Provisional grid: HAM, VER, VET, BOT, RAI, RIC, PER, GRO, OCO, HUL, ALO, SAI, LEC, ERI, GAS, MAG, HAR, VAN, SIR, STR […]
Two weeks (since the GP of Italy) can be a long time in F1! RAI announced he’s leaving Ferrari at the end of this season (not completely unexpected) … and he’s moving to Sauber (ok, that’s a surprise) – back to where he started his F1 career [F1] The empty seat at Ferrari will go […]
