Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg are involved in perhaps the most intense Formula One championship battle since 1989. The two Mercedes drivers have a car which is the class of the field. Under normal circumstances and putting reliability aside, they would finish first and second in every single race. But the 2014 Hungarian Grand Prix was anything but “normal circumstances.” Rosberg had started...

Formula One’s 2014 season continues to go from strength to strength. The Hungarian Grand Prix was one of the best races in recent memory—and at a circuit renown for producing mediocre races. At the heart of all great races are great drives. Lewis Hamilton‘s blast from last to third will go down as one of his finest races. Fernando Alonso also put in a stellar performance, dragging...

The Hungarian Grand Prix is on Sunday, and Formula One’s annual “silly season” is in full swing. Lewis Hamilton has dismissed suggestions his seat at Mercedes may be under threat. Team boss Toto Wolff—recovering from multiple broken bones after a bicycle crash—also spoke out in support of the Brit. Adrian Sutil has also been defending his seat after speculation Giedo van...

The German Grand Prix marked the halfway point of the 2014 Formula One season. Most of the talk going into the weekend was centred on the banning of FRIC suspension systems, and one major question in particular. Would the ban affect Mercedes’ dominance? By Sunday night we had the answer. Nico Rosberg had cruised to an unopposed victory while Lewis Hamilton had recovered from 20th on the grid...

The Hungarian Grand Prix will be the 11th round of the 2014 Formula One season. The venue, as it always has been, will be the Hungaroring. Situated in a shallow valley close to the capital Budapest, the circuit has hosted a Hungarian Grand Prix every year since 1986. Nico Rosberg won in Germany to take a 14-point lead in the drivers’ championship, but he’ll need to look over his shoulder...

Lewis Hamilton went into the Formula One German Grand Prix on Sunday in damage-limitation mode. A brake failure in qualifying and five-place penalty for changing his gearbox left him starting in 20th. To make matters worse, team-mate and championship rival Nico Rosberg was on pole. The German would surely cruise to an unopposed win; Hamilton needed to finish as close behind as possible. He set about...

Formula One produced another great spectacle on Sunday; the German Grand Prix was filled with action and drama all the way from the opening lap to the last. And to think, a few months ago some people were calling the sport dull. Valtteri Bottas confirmed his status as F1’s brightest rising star with another faultless drive to second. The Finn, who has yet to compete in 30 grands prix, will surely...

The German Grand Prix marks the midway point of the 2014 Formula One season. After a week dominated by talk of FRIC suspension, all the teams have removed the system from their cars. But the sporting world in general has not been paying too much attention to F1 over the last seven days. Football has been the main topic of discussion. The World Cup final on Sunday saw Germany claim their fourth tournament...

The prospect of a London Grand Prix once again raised its head last week. British Prime Minister David Cameron visited the Williams factory and announced rules governing motorsport events on public roads would be relaxed. Currently, each event requires specific approval via legislation—a bill being passed through Parliament, which can be a long and laborious task even if everyone agrees. Any...

The German Grand Prix will be Round 10 of the 2014 Formula One season. Since 2008, the race has alternated between two of Germany’s best modern circuits. Last year, the Nurburgring was host; this year, it’s back to Hockenheim. It will be the 34th time this venue has held the grand prix. There are four drivers on the grid for whom this is a home race—Nico Rosberg, Sebastian Vettel,...
