For the past couple of weeks it has been clear that Michael Schumacher really is coming back. The announcement this morning that he will partner Nico Rosberg at the newly branded Mercedes-Benz team has thus lost any shock factor.

Sebastian Vettel (1st)
It’s hard to say whether he would have been so dominant if Hamilton’s brakes weren’t such an issue, but the German drove a superb race regardless. Even though he didn’t have much to do in the way of overtaking, having passed the McLaren driver during the first… Read more -

Lewis Hamilton (1st)
Even though both Vettel and Rosberg put pressure on him at different points during the Grand Prix, you got the feeling that Hamilton was driving at nine-10ths the whole way through. He had time to have a quick chat with his pitcrew and to reboot his KERS… Read more -

At the start of the season I listed a few predictions for the year and I think we – that’s you lot out there and me – agreed we would review those predictions at mid-season.

So, a second Red Bull 1-2 on the trot – but this time it was Webber-Vettel.

May 11th, 2009 | Nigel Roebuck | 1 Comment
Five races, four wins.

Bahrain Grand Prix summary
April 26th, 2009 | Ed Foster | 10 Comments
Another great weekend for Jenson Button as he claimed his third win of the season, but how did everyone perform? When it’s as dry as it was in Bahrain even the smallest mistake can prove costly and much can depend on the strategy as many drivers found out to their… Read more

Chinese Grand Prix summary
April 20th, 2009 | Ed Foster | 13 Comments
The Chinese Grand Prix was another soaking affair, yet this weekend it wasn’t Brawn GP scoring a one-two but Red Bull. Sebastian Vettel, who proved his prowess in the wet at last year’s Italian Grand Prix, once again drove faultlessly to score a maiden victory for the team.

A perfect start for Brawn GP
March 29th, 2009 | Web Editor | 9 Comments
Everybody likes a fairy tale, and the 2009 Australian Grand Prix will go down as just that. When Jenson Button learned last November, after all 2009 seats had been settled, that Honda were pulling out of F1, it must have seemed like the end of his world. But Ross Brawn… Read more

Wow! Strewth! Phew, what a scorcher! Have you come down yet?
It doesn’t get much better than Brazil 2008. Does it? Yes, we’ve seen some thrilling races over the decades, but this was surely about as gritty as it gets.
