Former world champion and new Citroen World Rally Championship driver Kimi Raikkonen seems to be settling in to the more relaxed environment of the WRC world. The former Ferrari F1 driver sat down with Robin Scott-Elliot at the Independent for a chat about the start of his rallying career. While F1 is on the verge of a much-needed infusion of excitement...

This press release came in from Citroen about their motivation and chances for the 2010 season. Just a little primer to kcik off the WRC season. If I had three questions for Loeb, I don’t think these would be the ones but good to hear from the champion anyway. Enjoy and then file this is the…”you’re just re-posting press releases...

Join Victoria and me as we share her interviews from the Grand Am Rolex 24 hour race. Fresh from our newest technology, the F1B Pod-o-clave, you can hear interviews from Sébastien Bourdais, Ian James, Chris Dyson, Scott Pruett, Jeff Westphal and Steve Charsley. Hey, if USF1 can have an autoclave, we figured we’d sell “dream dates”... [Read more of this review]
In my opinion, the basic crux of the first 2010 testing last week at Jerez wasn’t so much that Ferrari and Fernando Alonso appeared quite fast and quite able to put a lot of laps on the car, but the important knowledge earned was that what the fans want, the fans get (all of my opinion and analysis of the test is available here at F1B). This... [Read more of this review]
Nelson Piquet Jr.made his official ARCA debut at the Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200 at Daytona International Speedway tonight. The event saw another debut with American Indycar driver Danica Patrick starting a limited schedule in the series in a much anticipated switch to Sprint Cup racing. Piquet finished 27th, 13 laps down, while Patrick drove to an impressive... [Read more of this review]
The debate over why the crowds came out to the Valencia tests, and Ferrari’s statement about it, got me thinking: Would Formula 1 be better off as a Formula Ferrari series? I know that running 20+ Ferrari Formula cars would eliminate the competitive technological and aerodynamic battle, which this year is awfully compelling. Who gets it right?...

As time goes by I find myself more and more perplexed by USF1. I have stated clearly and definitively that F1B is excited about USF1 and wants them to succeed but the PR gaffs and odd moves behind the scenes have me scratching my head. We attempted to get a closer look and some insight to the operation last week when Victoria was slated to visit the... [Read more of this review]
So we’ve heard the results from this week’s testing, but for those of you who are new to Formula One, you may be wondering how it all works. There are a few simple rules and regulations on testing, and like normal on F101, I’ll explain them and at the same time, I’ll put it into context, referring to this week’s first test of 2010 in Valencia. The... [Read more of this review]
Nelson Piquet Jr. and Danica Patrick qualified seventh and 12th in their first official NASCAR-related event, the Lucas Oil Slick Mist 200 ARCA Racing Series on Saturday. And that makes him nearly twice as good as her, right? The whole NASCAR points system always gets me so confused. Danica — as I’ve mentioned before here — has been... [Read more of this review]
