Formula 1’s Latest Rumours and Talk: Double Points, Marcus Ericsson and More

The first of the 2014 Formula One pre-season tests is only a week away. As is often the case at this time of the year, news is somewhat thin on the ground. But Caterham are helping out by announcing their driver line-up today, with Kamui Kobayashi and Marcus Ericsson set to be confirmed. Tomorrow is the last chance for the teams to ditch the deeply unpopular double points rule before the new season... 

John Button and Other Inspirational Formula 1 Fathers

John Button, father of 2009 Formula One champion Jenson, passed away on Sunday at his home on the French Riviera. He was 70. A passionate motorsport fan and devoted father, John was a constant, reassuring presence at his son’s side. It would be fair to say that without his influence and support, Jenson would never have made it. The same could be said for countless others. In tribute to John,... 

20 Burning Questions Ahead of the 2014 Formula 1 Season

The 2014 Formula One season kicks off in a little over two weeks with the first test at Jerez. Sweeping regulation changes mean this is set to be the most unpredictable season in recent memory, and no one is entirely sure what to expect. Is Kevin Magnussen the real deal? What’s the new Sochi circuit like? Are the new engines going to sound awful and explode all the time? And can Sebastian Vettel... 

Formula 1’s Latest Rumours and Talk: Kamui Kobayashi Set for Return and More

Kamui Kobayashi could be on course for a return to Formula One. His probable destination is Caterham, as the team turns to experience in their attempt to fight back after coming last in 2013. Elsewhere, Eddie Irvine has received a six-month prison term for a fight in an Italian nightclub and Lotus boss Eric Boullier says his will not be the only team to miss the first pre-season test at Jerez. Begin... 

6 Reasons Why Lotus Will Not Be Serious Contenders in the 2014 Formula 1 Season

Lotus go into the 2014 Formula One season on the back of two very successful campaigns. Benefiting from the experience and skill of Kimi Raikkonen and having produced cars which used their tyres well, the team exceeded expectations to finish fourth—not a million miles shy of second—in both 2012 and 2013. When Raikkonen announced he was leaving, the seat for 2014 became one of the most coveted... 

5 Ways Michael Schumacher Changed Formula 1

Michael Schumacher made his Formula One debut way back at the 1991 Belgian Grand Prix. One year later, he was a race winner. Three years later, he was world champion. He made a greater impact on the sport over the next two decades than any driver in F1 history. Records were broken, “team orders” became two very dirty words, and Ferrari once more were the team to beat. They even changed... 

Formula 1 2013 Season in Numbers

The 2013 Formula One season is behind us and we’re all looking forward to next year. New engine and aerodynamic regulations, more driver changes than Le Mans and a brand new race in Russia—there’s a lot to look forward to. But it’s also worth looking back on the 19 races of 2013 to see what sort of interesting and not-so-interesting statistics we can find. Using a combination... 

Formula 1 Sells Its Soul with Double Points Gimmick

Formula One has sold its soul to the God of Tacky Gimmicks. The FIA has announced that from 2014 onwards, the final race of the year will award double points in an attempt to keep title races alive right to the end of the season. That’s right folks. A win at classic beauties like Monaco, Silverstone or Spa will be worth half as much as a win at the characterless, dreary Yas Marina. With 50 points... 

Formula 1: 5 More Classic Tracks in the Style of Hermann Tilke

Love him or loathe him, Hermann Tilke’s impact on Formula One cannot be denied. With the exception of Bernie Ecclestone, no man has influenced the sport more in the past decade. Tracks which he designed, modified or otherwise had a hand in will hold 12 of the 22 races provisionally scheduled for the 2014 season. It’s likely to drop to nine of 19—still a substantial number. So why... 

Formula 1 Brazilian Grand Prix Predictions: Final Win for Mark Webber and More

The Brazilian Grand Prix this Sunday marks the end of the 2013 Formula 1 season. Interlagos has seen numerous champions crowned in the past, but this year’s title race was over long ago.

In the constructors’ standings, Mercedes, Ferrari and Lotus are fighting over second,...
