Precautionary scans revealed that he had sustained no injuries from his crash. [UPDATE: Hamilton has been given the final clearance from the FIA].

F1 Voice: Mika

Saturday, 21 July 2007. Just saw this on the TV and had to post a copy. Looks like Hamilton's legs had already taken a battering before his crash if that fall in the corridor is anything to go by.

F1 Voice: Sillyseason: 2008 Line-Up

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/08/sillyseason-2008-line-up_18.html

Saturday, 18 August 2007. There is a definite lull in the F1 world at the moment as the paddock takes it’s annual respite. If anyone needs a break it’s going to be Ron Dennis. He really did look dreadful at Hungary and it was clear the Hamilton-Alonso row was taking its toll. Alonso (OUT); Heidfeld (IN). Heidfeld (OUT); Rosberg (IN). Fissichella (OUT); Piquet Jnr (IN). Kovalainen (OUT); Alonso (IN). Coulthard (STAYS; replaced by Vettel half way through the season). Rosberg (OUT); Sutil (IN).

F1 Voice: Qualifying Highlights

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/08/qualifying-highlights.html

Saturday, 4 August 2007. Toyota seem to be on the up. For the third time in a row the team have got both their cars in the top ten with Ralf Schumacher a solid sixth fastest and Jarno Trulli lining up ninth. It was our best qualifying so far this season so we can only be happy with how it went. For the first time one of our cars went into Q3 with only one flying lap in Q2 so clearly we are in good shape here," said Pascal Vasselon, Toyota’s Senior General Manager. I am happy about P3, especially as up to...

F1 Voice: Alonso storms to chaotic Nurburgring win

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/07/alonso-storms-to-chaotic-nurburgring.html

Sunday, 22 July 2007. Alonso storms to chaotic Nurburgring win. If ever there was an indication of just how dramatic today’s race was going to be it was BBC Five Live’s decision to bring Murray Walker back to the helm. What a race to have the old boy back. 8220;One light, two lights, three lights, four lights, give lights… GO GO GO! As for the race, where do I begin? Perhaps unconventionally with my drivers of the day: Mark Webber and Alexander Wurz. Webber has finally followed up a strong qualifying...

F1 Voice: Pitlanegate

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/08/pitlanegate.html

Thursday, 16 August 2007. ITV-F1's Mark Hughes has written a very interesting and balanced analysis of Hungary's "pitlanegate" (see HERE. Well worth a read. After essentially concluding that it was six of one half a dozen of the other he goes on to argue that the Ron Dennis' overpowering desire for control was partly to blame for the shenanigans. As part of this lone matador persona Alonso joined McLaren under the impression that the focus of the team would be around his winning the title. The reality is...

F1 Voice: Alonso takes controversial pole

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/08/alonso-takes-controversial-pole.html

Saturday, 4 August 2007. Alonso takes controversial pole. I thought I’d post a quick reflection on the Alonso incident while my blood is up before making a more measured response on the rest of qualifying later on. A career in politics beckons for Alonso after he retires I think. No one spins events quite like him. 8220;The team was holding me back in the pit stops and we tried to have a bit of space on the track, especially to the Ferrari ahead of us," he said calmly in the press conference. On the subj...

F1 Voice: The Championship: where we're at.

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/07/championship-where-were-at.html

Sunday, 15 July 2007. The Championship: where we're at. It’s Sunday evening and I thought it would be good to spend half an hour or so taking stock of the last fortnight. Stepneygate aside, the last couple of races have been good for the sport and good for the championship fight. Firstly we have the resurgence of Ferrari and Kimi Raikkonen in particular. The Scuderia have bought radical new aerodynamic packages to both the French and British Grand Prix and their cars looked super fast. Is that Alonso has...

F1 Voice: Fautless Alonso Grabs Pole

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/09/fautless-alonso-grabs-pole.html

Saturday, 8 September 2007. Fautless Alonso Grabs Pole. Alonso well and truly silenced the Hamfosi today. Whatever Mclaren’s problems off the track, on it at least, the team performed faultlessly; the silver cars looked absolutely beautiful. No doubt about it, Hamilton is going to have his work cut out to hang on to his team-mate tomorrow. We may even see an error from the Britain if he is forced to try and match a race pace beyond his grasp. How Jarno Trulli managed to make the top ten is beyond me cons...

F1 Voice: Schumacher to Mclaren - 1996

http://f1voice.blogspot.com/2007/08/schumacher-to-mclaren-1996.html

Saturday, 18 August 2007. Schumacher to Mclaren - 1996. I stumbled across this a while ago but forgot to put it on the site. An interesting chat between Ron Dennis and Michael Schumacher at a Fashion Event in 1995. Dennis tried to schmooz the world champion into a Mclaren seat for 1996. I wonder how Schumacher would have fitted into Dennis' equalities agenda. Posted by Christopher Hayes. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Subscribe Now: Feed Icon. Subscribe to this RSS feed.
