Sergio Perez’s Sponsors Did Him No Favours During 2017 Force India Negotiations

Never before had a Formula One driver’s downfall been celebrated with such unbridled joy. Little more than a year after McLaren chose him—not Nico Hulkenberg, not Paul Di Resta—to lead them into life after Lewis Hamilton, Sergio Perez was gone, deemed to have less ultimate potential than a driver without a single grand prix appearance to his name. The confirmation of Kevin Magnussen’s promotion alongside Jenson Button in November 2013, a matter of weeks after securing the Formula Renault 3.5 championship, had left Perez with precious little time to find a race seat for the... 

Japanese F1 Grand Prix 2016 Qualifying: Results, Times from Friday’s Practice

Nico Rosberg had the edge on Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton in both practice sessions at the Formula One Japanese Grand Prix on Friday. After his disappointing retirement in Malaysia last time out, Hamilton would have been looking for a strong start to the weekend at Suzuka. However, the Briton was second behind Rosberg—who holds a 23-point advantage in the race for the world championship—in first and second practice. Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel was third fastest in the morning, while team-mate Kimi Raikkonen was best of the rest in the afternoon. Here’s a recap of a fascinating... 

Japanese F1 Grand Prix 2016: Start Time, Drivers, TV Schedule and More

Lewis Hamilton has a lot of work to do if he is to overturn Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg at the top of the Formula One drivers’ standings and win the world championship in 2016. There are only five races remaining in the season, and Sunday’s Japanese Grand Prix will be crucial in deciding whether the title race goes down to the wire or Rosberg runs away with it. Last time out in Malaysia, Hamilton suffered a huge blow as he was forced to retire while leading in Sepang, and Rosberg took third place to open up a 23-point lead over his title rival. Read on for a closer look at... 

Formula 1’s Latest Rumours, Talk: Renault’s Jolyon Palmer, Pascal Wehrlein, More

Jolyon Palmer enhanced his chances of remaining on the Formula One grid in 2017 by scoring the first point of his career in the Malaysian Grand Prix. Having made steady progress throughout his debut season, Palmer was deserving of his 10th-place finish at Sepang, but with Renault desperate to sign a star driver for next year, a single point may not be enough for him to save his skin. Palmer has pleaded with the team to offer him another chance in 2017, explaining why he will be a more rounded performer next season. Another driver who is yet to resolve his future is Pascal Wehrlein, who despite... 

Japanese Grand Prix 2016 Preview: Start Time, TV Info, Weather, Schedule, Odds

The jam-packed Formula One calendar is not giving us any time to breathe. A week after Daniel Ricciardo’s first win of the season and Lewis Hamilton maybe (or maybe not) accused someone of sabotaging his engines in Malaysia, the F1 circus is off to Suzuka for the Japanese Grand Prix. Following Hamilton’s spectacular engine failure while leading at Sepang, his road to the championship is tough, but not impossible. In fact, barring any more reliability problems, he is still the master of his fate—win the next four grands prix, and he will enter the final race of the season... 

Japanese Grand Prix 2016: 5 Bold Predictions for Suzuka Race

The 17th round of the 2016 Formula One season will take place at this weekend’s Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka, where Lewis Hamilton simply has to stop the slide. The three-time world champion held a 19-point lead over Nico Rosberg just two months ago, yet after failing to win any of the last four races—having retired from the lead of the recent Malaysian GP—he now finds himself 23 points behind his Mercedes team-mate with just five grands prix remaining. If he is to win a fourth world title in 2016, a return to winning ways is a matter of urgency, but Hamilton’s predicament... 

Formula 1’s Latest Rumours, Talk: Sebastian Vettel Contract, Sergio Perez, More

At the circuit where their love story began in 2015, Sebastian Vettel and Ferrari had yet another day to forget in Formula One’s Malaysian Grand Prix on Sunday. The four-time world champion’s first-lap collision with Nico Rosberg was the latest in a long line of incidents that have left the Prancing Horse quietly questioning just how good Vettel is compared to team-mate Kimi Raikkonen. But as difficult as this year has been, Ferrari are still very much smitten with Seb, with the team reportedly offering Vettel a new contract. Should he accept, Vettel will compete in the sacred scarlet-red... 

Early-Morning Formula 1 Watch Party in New York Shows Passion of American Fans

NEW YORK — It isn’t easy being a Formula One fan in the Western Hemisphere. Race start times are set to maximise European television audiences, leading to some awkward viewing slots for fans in North and South America. That’s just one of the reasons the sport has been unable to make a larger dent in the U.S. market. That’s also the reason I found myself at Feile (pronounced, “fay-la”), an Irish pub a block from Madison Square Garden in Manhattan, at 3 a.m. on Sunday morning. I joined the Formula 1 in NYC group for their Malaysian Grand Prix watch party both... 

Malaysian Grand Prix 2016: Winners and Losers from Sepang Race

Daniel Ricciardo claimed his first victory of the 2016 Formula One season in Sunday’s Malaysian Grand Prix at the Sepang circuit. The Red Bull driver started from third on the grid and took advantage of the Mercedes team’s misfortune to secure his first win in more than two years. Joining Ricciardo on the podium were Max Verstappen, who came off second best in a decisive wheel-to-wheel battle with his team-mate, and Nico Rosberg, who recovered from an early collision with Ferrari’s Sebastian Vettel to finish third and extend his championship lead to 23 points following Lewis Hamilton‘s... 

Malaysian F1 Grand Prix 2016 Results: Winner, Standings, Highlights, Reaction

Red Bull’s Daniel Ricciardo won a dramatic Formula One Malaysian Grand Prix on Sunday, as Mercedes’ Lewis Hamilton retired with engine failure late on. Ricciardo eventually held off team-mate Max Verstappen for the chequered flag after some pulsating racing. Hamilton looked poised to take a comfortable win after team-mate Nico Rosberg was shunted down to last place after Turn 1, but the Brit’s car caught ablaze with 15 laps left. After dropping down to last position, Rosberg eventually recovered well to take the third podium position. The German now leads the F1 world championship...
