Apologies for the late reply, but here goes : Ever since retiring from racing after the 2018 Indy 500, Danica Patrick has kept himself plenty busy with her ventures into entrepreneurship, and is planning on starting a weekly podcast somewhere around this year. She has heard rumblings of a potential...

Carina Lima and Sarah Bovy were in very high s...

Now all I need is a way to watch the next BTCC round... maybe online somewhere. Anybody got suggestions? I know that it is on ITV4 here in the UK, but in Germany? Sorry, no idea. Hmm, then I guess I'll have to be content with the race in 60 seconds, because that's all they show on their official Yo...

Could I trouble you for stats and salaries for these three drivers, please, as none of them currently appears on your list. I'd like to give at least two of them a cockpit, if the stats you give them seem acceptable to me (while retaining both Hunter-Reay and Rossi in the other two cars, of course):...

How must Jade Edwards feel? Neate’s car seems to have an unhealthy magnetic attraction to hers because I believe that’s the 3rd time he’s wiped her out of a race since she joined the series I can't say much about Neate as a driver or even as a person, and I definitely don't want to go as far as to ...

I would have somehow preferred it if the FIA had just ruled that from 2020 onwards, all FIA-sanctioned motorsport series had to have at least 25 or even 50% female driver participation. But maybe the FIA is not as powerful as it pretends to be... It's an interesting conundrum, that. I am a male nur...

It would be great to see women in F1, do you follow the W Series? I just checked its starting soon this month on the 26th. Yes, I do follow since the inaugural season, but I'm still unsure what to think of the series in general. While it is trying to promote female racing drivers, I also totally un...

I'd like to enter this series as well. It's been quite a while since I did one of these. It's also been quite a while since I had any idea what went on in IndyCar, so please forgive me in advance if I should screw things up from time to time.

Yeah, it's kind of hard to predict I knew Alonso had a good chance in 2012 and 2014 and Vettel for 2013, I wasn't sure about any of the other years. I'm certain that Verstappen will be a very strong contender for 2019 and 2020. Did you lose interest in F1 because of the Mercedes dominance? I haven'...

Alexandra

Huh... So, almost all of my predictions were totally wrong or at the very least pretty near misses. Oh well. Now I'm interested to see where this championship heads with the more recent years. As I had already lost touch with F1 by that point (mostly after the Bianchi accident), I won't predict anym...

Pippa Mann and Shea Holbrook still topped the championship stand...

I'm honestly surprised by Petrov's performance. Aside from the fact I don't remember much about him at all, I was somehow under the impression that he couldn't have been half bad, based on how long he was in F1 to begin with. Was that all thanks to his sponsorship money then? Anyways, let's start gu...

I’ve found it quite difficult to alternate between projects, so I’ll finish the Women’s GT Junior Cup first and then focus solely on the WTCC. That will ...

Two days of sluggish internet, and I've already missed the Webber steamroller. Too bad that from now on he'll only get the finger from his team. Well, two fingers, actually. The middle one from his team and the index one as his new teammate. So, basically the british way of flipping someone off...

Alexandra

If it makes it any better even if I included just Montagny and Yamamoto against Sato he wouldn't have won it any way he would have scored 84.0% still 0.5% off Webber. The rule exists because you would get drivers appearing for a one-off race or two, leading 5 laps ahead, getting 100% and winning it...

Alexandra

Am I missing something? Yes, yes, in fact, I am! Where's Super Aguri? Drivers must complete 50% of the season to qualify for this championship and since all of Sato's teammates Ide, Montagny and Yamamoto completed less than half they were excluded. Am I missing something? Yes, yes, in fact, I am! W...

2018 was several years ago now, but there are several events that happened that year that are still very vivid in my memory. A year that will be hard to forget. I will have to reread this thread to bring this back to the forefront of my memory. I remember enjoying this thread, I just need to bring ...

Alexandra

I had totally forgotten that Button was so much stronger than Sato in that year. I was so sure Coulthard had the championship in the bag, seeing that he was pitted against Klien, who already was no match for Webber and therefore should have been even weaker against a former race winner with nothing ...

Okay, I'll try again. Here are my predictions for 2004 - 2006:

2004: Webber
2005: Coulthard

And this year’s se...

2003 should be just as predictable: My bets are on Fisichella! I can't really remember what exactly went down at Jaguar that year, but I know Pizzonia didn't stay on the entire time, so no idea how strong Webber is going to be. Verstappen, on the other hand, shouldn't have it too easy with Wilson at...

Thank you guys again for the warm welcomings. It's nice to see this place is just as friendly as I remember it to be.

I remember reading an article where Button explained about his time against Fisichella at Benetton. “My team-mate was Giancarlo Fisichella who is notoriously good at driving really bad cars, so he blew me away a lot of the time, and mentally that really hurt, I didn’t get it.” A fledgeling Button q...

Alexandra

You were right about mentioning Verstappen having a chance. Yeah, most of Marques laps came from the start of the season and once Alonso got a hang of things later on the gap between them grew and in the end, Alonso finished 4th. Unfortunately, Mazzacane didn't qualify for this championship since d...

Alexandra

Good article, as always! Nice to see that some drivers can start later in their careers and find some success. I would call reaching F1 at all a success, even if it was mediocre in performance. Perhaps that's an article idea, seeing "late bloomer" drivers in F1 and elsewhere find success?...

Alexandra

Ooh, this is an interesting one! I'd like to make a few predictions for 2001, if I may... My Top 2 possible title contenders are: Verstappen (vs. Bernoldi), Alesi (vs. Mazzacane). I don't think neither Irvine nor Alonso stand too much of a chance. I can't remember Burti being a pushover, and though ...

The Future of the WTCC Long time no see, I know. Let’s just say I had to force a few things in my life back in order, which took me a lot longer than I had anticipated.
