Spa was wet for qualifying, and Button fell victim in 13th on the grid. But can Hamilton stop Vettel from regaining winning form in Spa Francorchamps? As always, Spa threw the weather in to the equation in qualifying for the Belgian Grand Prix, with Button ending in 13th place on the grid after a rapidly drying track left […]
Tom Cruise drives Red Bull F1 at Willow Springs Raceway +video
Red Bull is in the US promoting F1, and had a day with Tom Cruise driving the Red Bull F1 car at California’s Willow Springs Raceway. In case you hadn’t noticed, F1 is heading back to the U.S. and Red Bull are in the States in the F1 summer break glad-handing the locals. Just this week we had […]
Red Bull & DC drive the Circuit of the Americas – off road.
Red Bull and David Coulthard are Stateside and made a trip to the under-construction Circuit of the Americas, where they took the Red Bull F1 car for a spin. Surely, I hear you say, the Americans haven’t managed to finish off the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas, already, have they? And you’d be quite right […]
Hungarian Grand Prix (2011) RESULT
Back to normal service at the Hungaroring, with Sebastian Vettel on pole. But the McLarens of Button and Hamilton are snapping at his heels. How did it all play out? The 2011 Hungary Grand Prix marks the 200th Grand Prix for Jenson Button, and is also the scene of his first Grand Prix win, a […]
German Grand Prix (2011) RESULT
Back at the Nurburgring for 2011, the German Grand Prix sees Vettel off the front row of the grid. Is that enough to keep the young German off the podium? We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again. The Germans and the British are very alike. One has the sense of humour turned up to […]
British Grand Prix (2011) RESULT
The second British Grand Prix on the new Silverstone circuit was enmeshed in debate over the blown diffuser controversy, but still Red Bull filled the front row. Did it stay like that? With all the arguments over the blown diffuser and how it would penalise Red Bull more than any other team on the grid, it was […]
British Grand Prix 2011: Paul di Resta stakes his claim
Qualifying for the British Grand Prix was a bit of a nonsense thanks to the blown diffuser row and rain , but Red Bull took the 1st row, Ferrari the 2nd and Button took 5th place. Qualifying for the 2011 British Grand Prix was a wet event. After all, this is England in July. Lewis […]
Williams & Renault back together in F1
Williams F1 are to revisit their partrnership with Renault, with the French company supplying engines for Williams starting in 2012. For those of us who enjoy F1 (on the whole – although races like Canada rather than Valencia, it as to be said) but are very slightly past the first flush of youth, it’s rather sad to see […]
European Grand Prix (2011) RESULT
It’s a Red Bull lockout of the front row as Vettel attempts to reset the default settings for F1 2011 after Jenson Button upset him in Canada. Did it work? It’s probably as big a shift in weather and conditions as we’ve had this F1 season, from the deluge of the island track in Canada […]
Canadian Grand Prix (2011) RESULT
The 2011 Canadian Grand Prix usually offers some fun on the banks of the St Lawrence, and with rain forecast will this race turn the form book on its head? There is no point reporting the 2011 Canadian Grand Prix as we normally would. There is no need to set the scene and go through […]
