http://www.formula1-blog.co.uk will soon cease. Half way through the Formula One Championship I had certain goals to achieve in terms of readership etc. I have failed to meet these and have come to the conclusion that my time and effort versus what I get back in return for this blog is not worth while. I have [...]

It all started from the outset. Webber was flying, he was aggressive (as he later showed even more) no one was going to be allowed to win that race. He was on it in true Mansell-esque form. No prisoners from the off. I think that he was spurned on by the fact that Red Bull [...]

This press release below from the FIA… I think quite blatently shows that they are now back at war. Especially in paragraph two. Not only does it refer to Luca di Montezemolo’s previous comments about the FIA – it mocks what he said. This is simply now blow for blow punches. Or it is more [...]

Toyota have had a record £2.8bn loss last year and suspects it will be worse this year. No doubt the huge fees Bernie Ecclestone demands to host [...]

I was therefore astonished to learn that Fota has been briefing the press that Mr (Michel) Boeri (president of the FIA Senate) has taken charge of F1, something which [...]

After the World Motor Sport Council (WMSC) have had their meeting on Wednesday the below press release was issued regarding the Formula One World Championship and the situation for 2010 and onwards between the FIA and FOTA.

Max Mosley has resisted calls for him to resign and is adamant that he will remain in power at the FIA. That is until the FIA re-election in October unless called early, when I have a hunch, he will be out on his ear. However it may well be too late by then to save [...]
