As I promised on Thursday, here is the Autosport article and interview with Philippe Streiff The heartbreaking tale of Philippe Streiff A terrible testing crash in Brazil left French F1 racer Philippe Streiff in a wheelchair. Twenty-five years on he tells a story that is sad - but one of incredible ...
It's seemingly the received opinion that knocking Damon's world championship is the thing to do, when everyone forgets the fact that the world championship is a damn hard thing to win in any year and more goes into it than just on track performances. Indeed, Mansell and Prost credit Damon's test dri...
Maybe someone should start a breakaway series. Maybe, for example, they could run LMPs and GTLMs. Without NASCARs involvement. Imagine how good that would be...
