Fernando Alonso is coming back to Formula One in 2021 after tooling around at the Indianapolis 500 and at Le Mans. I have no idea whether he and Renault will do all that great considering Mercedes will probably dominate again next year ahead of rules changes in 2022, but one can dream. Read more…
Honda, the lovable basket case of Formula 1, is pulling out of the series for 2021. The company says it has more important things to spend money on, namely building fuel cells and battery-electric cars. This is a colossal bummer. For F1.Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com
Far be it for me to presume that Kimi Räikkönen is done racing in Formula One, but he’s 40 years old and when was the last time he sounded like he was having fun in the sport? Every week he sounds frustrated and disgusted with himself and the team. That’s no way for anyone to […]

In 2014 Gene Haas picked up the pieces of the failed Marussia team and built a new American Formula One team in Kannapolis, North Carolina. The team was assembled and ready for the 2016 season, and has been racing in the sport for half a decade. The first six rounds of the 2020 season have […]

Almost since the start of the season Renault has been extremely mad about Racing Point apparently copying their brake ducts from Mercedes’ 2019 car, against the rules this year. Today, the FIA finally handed Racing Point a fine and a point deduction though no one seems happy about it. Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com
At the 1975 Spanish Grand Prix, a race shortened by tragedy, Lella Lombardi became the first woman to ever score points in Formula One. She is one of two female drivers to have started a race and one of five to have entered. Today, 45 years later, she still remains the most successful woman to […]
Ever since Pirelli joined the Formula One circus, taking over for Bridgestone in 2011, its rubber has rubbed me the wrong way. The series removed refueling during in-race pit stops under the guise of safety following the 2009 season, and was looking for a way to improve ‘the show’ of a Grand Prix weekend. With […]
Six drivers refused to kneel with Lewis Hamilton, their fellow Black driver, at the start of this COVID-abridged season. At the most recent race this past weekend, a seventh driver stood. And F1 had the gall to put out a video saying that all drivers are acting as one to end racism.Read more… Continue Reading […]
There were originally gonna be grands prix in Texas, Brazil, Canada, and Mexico this season, but Formula One said Friday that those won’t be happening. The reason isn’t very surprising.Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com

The Concorde Agreement—the contract between Formula One and its teams, renewed seven times since the inaugural one in 1981—is expiring this year amid … everything. But despite that—or maybe because of it—Ferrari and McLaren indicated this week they’re ready to re-sign. Smaller teams aren’t quite there yet, but it…Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com

Formula One is making its return on the first weekend of July, tentatively kicking off eight races thus far. What’s interesting is not just that they’ll be held with no fans, but also that they’ll include two double-headers.Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com
Formula One has long been a battle of who can spend the most, with a major German manufacturer and an Austrian fizzy drinks companies dominating the last decade with dollars. Teams have recognized that some parity is needed to make the racing more interesting, retain fans attentions, and hopefully make the entire grid…Read more… Continue […]
For reasons perhaps beyond anyone’s understanding, F1 started running proboscis noses in 2014. They were universally loathed, and quickly banned, and now you can own one.Read more… Continue Reading at https://jalopnik.com
The F1 season, like most major international sport, is currently on hold. And like a growing number of international sports, athletes have found one of the best ways to keep busy is to challenge others online in the video game version of what they normally do for a living.Read more… Continue Reading at https://kotaku.com
