Despite the fact I’ve only watched F1 properly for about 10 years, I absolutely love F1 history, especially the obscure and the weird. So here are the weirdest, unique and interesting F1 cars I can think of. I may do more of these for other things as well, I have a lot of random obscure knowledge in my head.

I love reading up on F1 history, and some of my favourite things to read up on is the strange and unexpected stories and jobs so many former F1 drivers have had, so here’s a quiz of some of the best.

For those that know me well, you’ll know I’m a massive Williams fan and a big fan of F1 history, so when Williams announced a free British Grand Prix preview event I was all for it. So here are some pictures, thoughts and stats of all the cars at the event. The event itself was absolutely fantastic, while only a …

Probably fair to say my predictions for 2016 were a little mixed… While I was the only one to correctly predict both championships, I also made a prediction about Renault that was nowhere near, it was bad, really bad…

Last year my predictions were a little bit mixed, some right, some not so much (read them here), so this year I’ve asked my other two writers to get involved as well, maybe between us we can get some better predictions.

“I’m not interested in tweeting, Facebook and whatever this nonsense is” were words uttered by Bernie Ecclestone just over a year ago now. From that, it seemed as if F1 was well and truly stuck in the dark ages: no presence on massive social media platforms which simply gets people talking. F1 seemed more worried about quashing all F1 social media …

The long break is over, at last F1 is back with the Belgian GP, and we no longer need to spend every Sunday making our own engine noises.
