Michael Schumacher has come out to publicly affirm that he won’t lose faith in Mercedes GP according to ESPN F1. Wow! It must bring great relief to Norbert Haug and Ross Brawn that the man to whom they are reportedly paying more than £20 million (US $30 million) per year (according to the UK Daily Mail)—and who has yet to set foot on the podium in the 45 races since his return—is...

Felipe Massa’s woeful run of form returned with a vengeance at the Canadian Grand Prix where he turned a solid start into a desperate scramble to secure the final points spot. In a moment that defies explanation, Massa managed to spin his car whilst running sixth in relatively clear air at Turn 1, narrowly keeping himself off the wall and causing further damage. It seems that Massa is one of...

The 2012 Canadian Grand Prix continued the remarkable streak of unpredictable results, delivering the seventh different winner of the season, this time in the form of Lewis Hamilton. While Hamilton’s comfortable victory finally rewarded the season’s most consistent performer with a long overdue visit to the top step of the podium, it added more fuel to the fire of those who are critical...

In a year where we have had exciting, unpredictable racing for five consecutive races, the annual visit to Monaco could only be an anticlimax. And, as per usual, Monaco didn’t fail to disappoint.

Just how good is Fernando Alonso? Currently, he is sharing the championship lead in the 2012 Formula One season and no one can adequately explain why. Or can they? Okay, a guy with two world championships under his belt is obviously not a complete dud, but I suspect we can all name drivers who secured a world championship more by virtue of the car they were in, rather than their ability to drive it. Even...

Five different winners from five different teams take out the first five races of the season. What the hell is going on? It’s almost as if everyone has forgotten the Formula One script—the one where one team dominates, a couple of others keep them honest and the rest are there to make the track look busy. Not this year. We have six, possibly seven teams capable of winning a race with Williams,...

If you didn’t know better, you would get the impression that McLaren don’t like Lewis Hamilton and are doing their best to sabotage his 2012 challenge for the Formula 1 championship. In the latest in a long line of botched efforts, McLaren have conspired to see Hamilton stripped of an outstanding pole position drive and relegated to start at the rear of the grid for the Spanish Grand Prix. Hamilton...

For the second race in a row, we have been treated to a fascinating, action-packed event from lights out to the chequered flag and the 2012 Bahrain Grand Prix may just have proven itself worth the controversy that dogged its lead-up. Sebastian Vettel returned to the winner’s circle, ending what, by Red Bull’s lofty standards, can only be considered as a rough patch. We had overtaking and...

What are the chances that Bernie Ecclestone will come to his senses and give the order to pack up the Bahrain Grand Prix and go home? After spending the last two weeks telling anyone who would listen that there’s nothing going on in Bahrain and that the teams have nothing to worry about, we have the terrible situation of four members of the Force India team getting caught up in protests and exposed...
