411: Abu Dhabi and beyond
I say beyond as the closest race now (Bahrain) is 118 days away…so it’s would be rather prudent of me to assume that the gossip would cease altogether. In fact we are now about to get the best gossip of the year. We have officially entered the off-season (although I suspect that Red Bull are … Continue reading
Yas Marina: Free Practice 3
I do have an actual reason as to why this is later than usual…a quick sprint up to London (really bad timing I know). Believe me; I’ve been clinging to my phone all day trying to find out what’s going on. But as a reward I took myself off to the Pole Position shop on Regent’s … Continue reading

So what has happened since the first Korean Grand Prix? Flavio Briatore (quite the controversial figure in F1…namely for his somewhat questionable decisions) is the … Continue reading
