After a long winter (not aided by some shaky performances on the football pitch from Liverpool), Formula 1 is finally set to return! On 13th March, practice begins for the opening round in Melbourne, Australia, with the race itself taking place on the 15th. I cannot wait! So, what are the expectations? Mercedes The Mercedes […]
So, the second race of season 2 brings us back to Sepang, Malaysia – where I didn’t fare too well last time. My first run through here saw the race run in wet conditions and I struggled, ultimately putting the brake assist on in order to handle the circuit and conditions. This time around, I […]
So, having won the 2009 F1 championship with a final-race win at Abu Dhabi, after a short break it was time to return to action – to defend my title. The game doesn’t generate any new tracks for 2010, nor does it reorder the races, so it was back to Australia for the 2010 race! […]
So we have reached the end of the road. After a season that saw me trail Brawn’s Jenson Button for most of it, the final event is here, and Button is not the man who can deny me the title. After the previous race in Brazil, I wqs nine points clear of Red Bull’s Mark […]
Having qualified on pole and hoping for a dry race, my immediate thought upon realising this was to be a wet race was that I would not be securing the title in Brazil. A slow start saw Webber’s Red Bull edge ahead of me and maintain a gap of around four seconds, that I just […]
So we have arrived at the penultimate round of the 2009 F1 season. After 15 races, I lead the championship on 104 points, 10 points clear of Jenson Button in second place and 11 points ahead of Mark Webber in third. Should I finish ahead of both of them here, I am guaranteed the title. […]
After engine failure denied me any points from Singapore (where I looked set to win, dammit!), I was level on points once more with Button, and Webber had closed to 7 points. With three races to go, the title battle was still a three-way affair. Suzuka (the only figure-8 circuit in F1) is a famous […]
Having taken a five point lead following the conclusion of the Italian Grand Prix, I would next face another one of my bogey tracks – Singapore. Singapore is F1’s only full night race, held on a bumpy street circuit and in sweltering, humid conditions, even despite the time of day. In real F1, this is […]
Having claimed victory at Spa, the next race venue was a track every bit as famous – Monza, in Italy. Monza has the highest average speed of any modern F1 circuit – from the Rettifilo Tribune (the main straight) to the fast turn 2 (Curva Biassono) to the Curva del Serraglio (turn 6), everything about […]
After a woeful Valencia race (from pole to 9th and no points can only be considered a disaster!) I was five points adrift of Button as the game brought us to Spa, the famous venue of the Belgium Grand Prix. With six races remaining (including this one) I needed to reel Button in quickly. My […]
Breached the 70K mark on my wip! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!
This is just sheer absolute, exquisite beauty.
I have eaten too much pizza.
I don't think it's up to you to decide what's best for women, nor whether or not men can find them attractive...
