The FIA’s World Motor Sport Council has reinstated the Bahrain Grand Prix on 30th October, moving the Indian Grand Prix to December. The start of the F1 Circus this year was put back after the Arab Spring made the Gulf Kindom of Bahrain a less than suitable venue for something as frivolous as Formula One, leading to […]
Brazil Grand Prix (2010) RESULT
Not quite a Red Bull lock-out on the grid in Brazil, with Williams’ Nico Hulkenberg grabbing his first pole in front of the Red Bulls. But McLaren seem out of contention. Another Red Bull victory to come? No question, Interlagos 2010 was a Red Bull success story. Yes, they’ve made things more difficult for themselves […]
F1 Korean Grand Prix: Red Bull CGI Video
Red Bull has created a CGI video of the new F1 tack in Yeongam, South Korea, home of the first F1 Korean Grand Prix on 24th October. The F1 Circus gets bigger and bigger every year as Bernie Ecclestone continues his aim to host a Grand Prix in every country that can scrape together a […]
Japanese Grand Prix (2010) RESULT
Sunday qualifying at Suzuka saw the Red Bulls dominate and fill the front row with Kubica and Hamilton behind. Can Alonso and Button make it up in the race?

Singapore Grand Prix (2010) RESULT
Ferrari and Red Bull on the front row. McLaren filling the second row of the grid with Webber on the 3rd row. All the contenders in the top five. Is that how it ended? From being a petulant child, pouting and stomping when things don’t go his way, Fernando Alonso has suddenly changed in to […]
Belgian Grand Prix (2010) RESULT
Off to Spa for the first Grand Prix after the summer break. Red Bull get pole once again, but McLaren – who need a result – are in second place with Hamilton. Did it rain? Spa is a proper Grand Prix Circuit. It’s not a huge circuit in the way the Nurburgring was, but it’s […]
Hungarian Grand Prix (2010) RESULT
On the face of it more Red Bull domination on the grid, with a resurgent Ferrari snapping at their heels and McLaren a poor relation. Is that how it finished?

British Grand Prix (2010) RESULT
With the Red Bulls at the front of the grid, Hamilton in 4th and Button in 14th are the Brits destined to fail and Red Bull to succeed? It was probably the best weekend weather-wise at Silverstone for an F1 Grand Prix in some considerable time. But the sun didn’t shine on McLaren in qualifying […]
F1 2010 – an enticing prospect
It hardly seems five minutes since Jenson Button tied up the 2009 F1 World Championship, and already we’re on the eve of the first F1 race weekend of 2010 in Bahrain. There have been accusations that Formula 1 has become boring; just a procession of cars going round in a circle many say. And at […]
Red Bull 1-2 in Abu Dhabi
Sebastian Vettel won for Red Bull with team mate Mark Webber in second place at the first Abu Dhabi Grand Prix at Yas Marina. It was billed as a procession; a meaningless final race to the topsy-turvy 2009 F1 season. And in a sense it was. Sebastian Vettel managed to best Lewis Hamilton in the […]
