Star Driver: Abu Dhabi Grand Prix

My star driver of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is without a doubt, Jenson Button. Throughout the entire season Button has struggled, along with his teammate, to make the best of a bad situation. It’s no secret that Honda isn’t quite at winning pace as of yet. Both Button and Alonso have had a difficult […]

Star Driver: Brazilian Grand Prix

Lewis Hamilton commented on today’s race, saying it was “impossible to overtake” at the Interlagos track. Despite this ruling from the defending World Champion, rookie Max Verstappen performed some simply outstanding overtaking. For defying the opinions of others, I’m giving the title of Star Driver to Max Verstappen, once again. We’re all aware of Max’s […]

Haas and Gutierrez: The Perfect Match

Last week Esteban Gutierrez was announced to be driving at Haas F1 Team alongside Frenchman, Romain Grosjean. After being absent from the racing grid for a year, some people believe Gutierrez has had his chance, and now shouldn’t be given another. However, there is a team of people arguing the opposite. The only way this […]

Star Driver: Mexican Grand Prix

After 23 years absence from the Formula One race calendar, the Mexican Grand Prix returned this weekend. It was obvious that the track was brand new to the drivers as errors were made throughout the race, despite a clean first corner. It’s been especially hard to decide on a star driver of the Mexican Grand […]

Star Driver: United States Grand Prix

This weekend, as I’m sure you’re all aware, was very wet and windy. In the midst of a drenched weekend and postponed/cancelled sessions was the American Grand Prix. The race pushed drivers as they cautiously pursued points. However, in my opinion, no one put on a chase like Max Verstappen. It seems I’m writing Max’s […]

Star Driver: Russian Grand Prix

My star driver of the Russian Grand Prix is Sergio Perez. This weekend the choice was easy as throughout the entire race, Checo performed some incredibly mature and skilled moves earning him third place and an appearance on the podium.

Star Driver: Japanese Grand Prix

Usually I try to select a variety of drivers for my star driver, however, after seeing the race in Japan, it became obvious that Max Verstappen was (once again) the most deserving of the recognition. The first reason for this, similarly to the Singapore Grand Prix, is the quality of his passing manoeuvres. It cannot […]

Star Driver: Singapore Grand Prix

The Singapore Grand Prix is loved by many for being so individual. The race takes place in the darkness of the night. Seeing Formula One cars racing around a track under flood lights is truly a sight to behold. However, the race cars in this lighting were not the only thing that caught my eye. […]

Star Driver: Italian Grand Prix

This year, the Italian Grand Prix was not as stimulating as I was expecting it to be. I don’t feel that any of the driver’s finished in unexpected positions, other than those who retired. Having said this, there is much praise that should be dished around all of the drivers as they performed some incredible […]

Star Driver: Belgian Grand Prix

Spa-Francorchamps is renowned for its unexpected results. It introduces new drivers to the three steps of the podium. Although there were some surprises during the race, one thing remained the same, Mercedes finished in first and second, as has become the usual. However, in third place was the very talented Romain Grosjean, this was the […]

2015 Mid-Season Review: Ferrari

Ferrari has arguably the most extensive history to exist in Formula 1. The past decades illustrate some incredible ups and downs in their points and standings.

2015 Mid-Season Review: Lotus

Lotus F1 Team has not had the easiest season start this year, but you cannot argue that their results this year aren’t an improvement on last years. Last year the team faced one of their most challenging seasons to date. Romain Grosjean finished in 14th place in the driver standings whilst Pastor Maldonado finished in […]
