Formula 1 US Grand Prix: Why Heikki Kovalainen Can Succeed at Lotus

In Sunday’s United States Grand Prix, Heikki Kovalainen will line up on the grid for the first time this season. He was parachuted into the seat at Lotus as a last-minute replacement for compatriot Kimi Raikkonen, who elected to have back surgery and will miss the final two races.

Formula 1 US Grand Prix Preview: Tyres, DRS, Weather, Lap Guide, Session Times

The Formula 1 United States Grand Prix sees the sport return to Texas for only the second time in recent years. After successfully hosting the race last year, the Circuit of the Americas near Austin is again the venue.

5 Reasons Why You Should Watch Friday Practice

On the Friday before every Formula 1 Grand Prix (except Monaco), there are two 90-minute practice sessions. Monaco has them on Thursdays. Teams use them to work on setups and strategy choices for the coming weekend, while the drivers get an opportunity to learn or re-familiarise themselves with the circuit. Even to an F1 nut, the on-track action tends to be painfully dull. Probably for this reason,... 

Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix: Pole for Sebastian Vettel and Other Predictions

The 2013 Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is this weekend, and predicting F1 has become relatively easy of late. Pole and the win for Sebastian Vettel. But Romain Grosjean has been threatening to mark his upsurge in form with a victory, and the tyre situation in the UAE could well play into his hands. Elsewhere, the battle between Caterham and Marussia for 10th in the constructors’ championship...

The 2013 Formula 1 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix takes place this weekend at the Yas Marina Circuit, close to the city of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates.

In 2010 Yas Marina hosted the... 

Formula 1 Indian Grand Prix Preview: Tyres, DRS, Weather, Session and TV Times

The 2013 Formula 1 Indian Grand Prix will take place this Sunday at the Buddh International Circuit. Located in Greater Noida, Uttar Pradesh, the circuit is just an hour’s drive from world’s second-largest city, Delhi. This will be only the third Indian Grand Prix, but it’s already under some degree of threat. Attendances in 2012 fell sharply to just 65,000, and this year ticket sales... 

Formula 1: Daniil Kvyat Chosen to Replace Daniel Ricciardo at Toro Rosso

Toro Rosso have announced that 19-year-old Russian Daniil Kvyat will replace Red Bull-bound Daniel Ricciardo for 2014. The news, coming just days after it emerged the team attempted to poach McLaren-linked Stoffel Vandoorne for the drive, will come as a bitter blow for Antonio Felix da Costa. The Portuguese had long been seen as the favourite for the seat, but his results in Formula Renault 3.5 (FR3.5)... 

Robin Frijns and Other Young Drivers Who Deserve a Shot at Formula 1

Robin Frijns, Stoffel Vandoorne, Felipe Nasr. Whether or not you’ve heard those names before will depend on how closely you follow motorsport. But fast forward five years into the future, and there’s a good chance they’ll be known the world over. The three currently drive in either GP2 or Formula Renault 3.5 (FR3.5). Those are the two main “feeder series” to Formula One,...
