Reflecting back on the last 12 months in the world of Formula 1 , two apparently contradictory aphorisms spring to mind. Firstly, that change is usually for the better, and secondly, that you can have too much of a good thing. Change has certainly been the prevalent theme in F1 over the past year. On the plus side, we have had the Brawn team’s fairy-tale march to the constructors’ title...

I read that Toyota have announced that they are pulling out of Formula 1 and Renault are to hold an emergency board meeting to consider their future participation in the sport. BMW announced their withdrawal earlier in the year, but completed the 2009 season. Honda of course pulled out last year.

According to former F1 driver Ralph Schumacher, the Red Bull Racing squad should have implemented team orders this season, as it could have led to Sebastien Vettel winning the drivers championship.

It has been a tremendous season for Alpinestars and we now have a F1 world championship to add to the trophy cupboard. Who knows what could’ve happened if Casey Stoner hadn’t sat out those 3 races, but hey ho, this is the gruelling world...

The truly wealthy never seem to care about tickets. They park where they want and drive how they want, because the penalties never mean much more than pocket change to them. Well they might want to give that a second thought as one extremely wealthy motorist has received an unpredecentedly large speeding ticket in Mumbai. The fine was imposed on one David Coulthard, one of the most successful Formula...
