5 Reasons for McLaren to Stay Positive

If it feels like we have been talking about McLaren’s coming revival forever—and ever, and ever—just think about how it must feel for Ron Dennis, Jenson Button and the rest of the team. The Woking-based outfit is in the midst of one of it worst stretches since its 1966 Formula One debut: fifth in the constructors’ standings the last two years (ninth, currently) and no victories... 

Nico Hulkenberg Interview: Talking Le Mans and His Formula 1 Future

MONTREAL — It is one of the great mysteries of the modern world, like Bigfoot or the Loch Ness monster: Why has the extremely talented Nico Hulkenberg spent his entire Formula One career languishing with midfield teams while other drivers have progressed up the grid? For some insight, we turned to the man himself who, in addition to his F1 duties with Force India, is channelling his inner Graham... 

B/R Exclusive: Jacques Villeneuve Talks Le Mans, IndyCar and Respect in F1

MONTREAL — Jacques Villeneuve, the 1995 Indy 500 winner and 1997 Formula One champion, spent last weekend in the paddock of the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve (which, of course, is named after his late father). The outspoken Canadian, born just 50 kilometres from the track, has never been afraid to share whatever is on his mind—a refreshing change from most PR-trained modern F1 drivers. I spoke... 

Canadian GP Offers More Than Just Lewis Hamilton’s Win and Mercedes’ Dominance

MONTREAL — Lewis Hamilton‘s victory for Mercedes at the Canadian Grand Prix on Sunday was not the most thrilling race the Circuit Gilles-Villeneuve has ever produced, but they can’t all be classics, can they? Last year’s certainly was, with Daniel Ricciardo taking his first career win with a brilliant late-race pass on the ailing Mercedes of Hamilton’s team-mate, Nico... 

Romain Grosjean Disappointed Max Verstappen Hasn’t Apologised for Monaco Crash

MONTREAL — Discussion (and disagreement) over the Romain Grosjean-Max Verstappen crash at the Monaco Grand Prix has spilled over into the Montreal paddock this week. At the FIA press conference on Thursday morning, Felipe Massa reiterated the criticism he expressed for Verstappen after the Monaco race, saying it was correct that the young Dutchman was penalised for hitting the back of Grosjean‘s... 

Can Ferrari’s Kimi Raikkonen Improve His Qualifying Performances?

Kimi Raikkonen is not a great qualifier. Despite the Finn’s well-earned reputation as a quick driver, turning in that single fast lap on Saturday has never been at the top of his list of skills. Rather, it is his ability to perform on Sundays that has made his reputation. Indeed, Raikkonen is the only driver on the grid to have been outqualified by his team-mate at all six races so far this year. Following... 

Sebastian Vettel Will Win the Formula 1 Title with Ferrari in 2016

It is going to happen at some point, Sebastian Vettel winning a Formula One championship with Ferrari. The question is: when? Predictions are a dangerous game, particularly in a sport where it is difficult enough to forecast the winner of the next race, let alone a result one or more years down the road. Yet here we are, predicting not only that Vettel will add to his four titles, but the year he will... 

Lewis Hamilton and 5 Other Formula 1 Defeat-from-the-Jaws-of-Victory Moments

In terms of pure sporting achievement, Nico Rosberg’s victory at the 2015 Monaco Grand Prix last weekend may not rank anywhere near Michael Jordan’s jump shot to beat Cleveland in 1989 or Liverpool’s Champions League comeback against AC Milan in 2005. The feelings elicited by these events, however—particularly for fans of the Cavaliers, the Rossoneri or Lewis Hamilton—are... 

Monaco Grand Prix 2015: Winners and Losers from Monte Carlo Race

With 15 laps remaining in the 2015 Monaco Grand Prix, everything seemed set for a predictable finish. Championship leader Lewis Hamilton was nearly 20 seconds ahead of his Mercedes team-mate, Nico Rosberg, and was expected to become the seventh straight pole-sitter to take victory in the principality. Then, Toro Rosso teenager Max Verstappen clipped the back of Romain Grosjean’s Lotus as they... 

Will the Return of Formula 1 Refuelling Make for Better Racing?

In-race refuelling in Formula One was banned for the 2010 season in an effort to save costs. Clearly that goal has not been accomplished, as spending continues to spiral out of control and lower-budget teams scramble to pay their bills. In a press release following last week’s Strategy Group meeting, the FIA announced that refuelling will return for the 2017 season, among other changes designed...
