Ranking Simona De Silvestro and Susie Wolff’s Chances of an F1 Race Seat in 2015

It has been nearly 40 years since a female driver competed in a Formula One World Championship race. Now, there are two women—Susie Wolff and Simona de Silvestro—looking to end that streak. Wolff, a 31-year-old Scot, has been a development driver for Williams since 2012. Meanwhile, de Silvestro, a 25-year-old from Thun, Switzerland, has raced in IndyCar since 2010 and recently signed with... 

Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher: Similar F1 Styles but Different Perceptions

Ayrton Senna and Michael Schumacher both raced with a single-minded determination—even ruthlessness—that allowed them to become two of the greatest drivers in Formula One history…yet their legacies are very different. Senna is nearly worshipped in many quarters. Schumacher, meanwhile, does not seem to be loved outside Germany—not even in Italy, where he returned the revered... 

Ranking Ayrton Senna’s 10 Greatest Rivals in Formula 1

Between 1985 and 1993, Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost combined to win seven world championship titles. Both drivers’ careers were defined, in large part, by their intense rivalry. Although the Senna-Prost rivalry is discussed most frequently, Senna had several other rivals in his Formula One career. The Brazilian had memorable battles with fellow champions like Nigel Mansell and Michael Schumacher,... 

Ayrton Senna’s Legacy Extends Far Beyond the Track 20 Years After His Death

Ayrton Senna is rightly remembered as one of the greatest drivers to ever sit behind the wheel of a Formula One race car. His 41 wins, 65 poles and three world championships are still near the top of the all-time lists—although they could have been so much more. The safety improvements that followed his and Roland Ratzenberger’s deaths at Imola in 1994 are also frequently mentioned as part... 

Roland Ratzenberger: The Tragedy Formula 1 Forgot After Ayrton Senna’s Death

When Roland Ratzenberger was killed during qualifying for the 1994 San Marino Grand Prix, he became the first Formula One driver to die during a grand prix weekend since Riccardo Paletti at the 1982 Canadian Grand Prix. The next day, during the race itself, Ayrton Senna was also killed. Although Senna and Ratzenberger were born less than four months apart, their career paths were completely different. For... 

Formula 1 Needs the Canadian Grand Prix to Stay at Its Montreal Home

The American economy is still the largest in the world by quite a large margin. Because of its size, Formula One has been trying for most of its existence to penetrate the U.S. market, without much progress. Meanwhile, just to the north, the Canadian Grand Prix has been a raging success. It is popular with both fans and drivers for the action on and off the track, as Montreal embraces its guests and...

Is It Too Early for McLaren to Shift Focus to 2015 and Its New Honda Engines?

The 2013 Formula One season was McLaren’s worst since 1980, before Ron Dennis first became team principal. Now, Dennis is back, but the results have not significantly improved. In Australia, Kevin Magnussen and Jenson Button did score the team’s first podiums since the 2012 Brazilian Grand Prix, but it has been straight downhill since then. As painful as it may be, should the team now start... 

Reappraising Daniel Ricciardo’s Talent After Start to F1 Career at Red Bull

Red Bull’s Daniel Ricciardo scored his second straight fourth-place finish at the Chinese Grand Prix on Sunday. Earlier in the week, the Australian’s disqualification from his home grand prix—where he finished second last month—was upheld by the FIA‘s Court of Appeal.
