The two teams on the outside looking in on the 2010 Formula 1 season are reportedly talking about joining forces, a growing number of news outlets are reporting. USF1 and Stefan GP seem to each have something key the other is missing. USF1 has an entry slot in F1 and Zoran Stefanovic, Stefan GP’s owner, has money. From there, though, this story...
For years the prevailing notion, and truth, is that many of today’s road cars have benefited from the technology developed from Formula 1 racing. Teams have pressed the limits of what is achievable and come away with an array of innovations that have pushed the road car into the new century. Most recently companies like Ferrari, Mercedes, Toyota,...
Modern technology has pushed F1 to a new level. I got my new iPhone at the end of last year, and one of the Apps I was looking forward to was the Live Timing App, because it’s a great way to get further involved with the sport. But at £19.99 for just one season, I decided I wasn’t going to bother. And I’m glad I didn’t. My trustworthy Twitter...
Amid all the hand-wringing yesterday about the Bahrain GP, a very fast car drove past our radar: the new Audi R15 plus. Of course, Le Mans isn’t our main deal here, but I’d hate to disappoint Todd and not make note of what I’m sure will become his next car-obsession. Here’s a little on the car courtesy SPEED: The first official...
If there has been one resounding message from the opening race of the F1 world championship in Bahrain it is that the hype may not have matched the action on track. The regulation changes, new teams, star drivers and no less than four teams vying for the title made for terrific off-season reading and dreaming. Fans around the world were pumped up by...

Formula 1’s latest “bloody nose” seems to have riled up fans following the opening race in Bahrain this past weekend. Was it a boring race? Why? What can, should, will or won’t be done about it? All those questions, in one form of another, have been answered or at least debated in the above linked-to post. One focus has been...
Before we begin: Yes it’s been over a month since my last op-ed piece but don’t worry SJ Skids gives me enough crap about it for all of you so let’s not get hung up on these “technicalities” and move forward with the article, okay?

The first race of 2010 is over and the teams, packed, are moving to Australia for the next event. Along with the teams, there will be a certain amount of disillusionment that will be riding shotgun with them all the way to the Great Southern Land. The ban on refueling, qualifying regulations regarding tire compound usage, race regulations regarding...
