Russell Driving the very pleasant Citroen C5 home last night, I got to thinking about the importance of the instrument binnacle, my thoughts directed that way by the unusual manner in which the Citroens needles are displayed. The pointer actually appears to be affixed to the outer edge of the instruments, so there’s no central point [...]

January 15th, 2010 Steve With the New World Supebike season kicking off at the end of February I think we are in for a feast of 2-wheel racing. We have several new riders and the team structures have changed. And then of course we have lost the talent of Ben Spies to Moto GP. The biggest change for me [...]
Kyle's F1 Blog: Mercedes consumes Brawn GP
November 17th, 2009 Kyle Stone Yesterday the news of Mercedes buying Brawn GP and McLaren buying back Daimler’s 40% stake in McLaren hit the motorsport headlines and many people including Drive staffers were rather surprised. I wasn’t, in fact it’s been on the cards for some time now in my mind. During a time when manufacturers seem to be jumping [...]
Kyle's F1 Blog: F1 AWARDS
November 2nd, 2009 Kyle Stone The 2009 F1 season is officially over and it certainly finished on a high note, the Webber Button duel on the final lap in Abu Dhabi has got to go down as the best single lap of the entire year. Then there was the completely dominant performance by Vettel, something the British commentators failed to [...]

October 13th, 2009 Kyle Stone So by now we all know that Kubica has made the jump from the sinking BMW over to their French rivals Renault. Whilst this may not be hot news, I do think it is one of the most important pieces of news in a while, well that and Vettel declaring he won’t shave as long [...]

October 6th, 2009 Steve We’ll it seems that the silly season is almost over, there are still some rides up for grabs but most of the factory teams have selected their riders. It is of course old news now but Ben Spies has decided to go to Tech 3 in Moto GP. I don’t know that that is such [...]

October 5th, 2009 Kyle Stone It may be old news by now but in case you haven’t heard Alonso has officially signed with Ferrari for 3 years starting in 2010. Now we’ve all suspected this was going to happen for quite some time so it really wasn’t a surprise when the announcement came through. What I did find very interesting [...]

September 28th, 2009 Kyle Stone So it turns out I was vaguely correct in my predictions with regards to the whole Renault saga in my last blog. I thought that the individuals in question were indeed guilty of race fixing but that Renault would be found innocent regardless, Renault is after all a big name team and that means there [...]

September 17th, 2009 Kyle Stone What a disappointing Monza race, okay it was actually quite good but I’m just annoyed that Button’s championship lead is looking increasingly unassailable. Rubens may be proving to be the superior Brawn driver in the twilight of this season but we’re talking about a Ross Brawn team here. A combination of Ross Brawn and the [...]

September 15th, 2009 Steve Steve’s Motorcycle Racing Blog How wrong could I have been in my last post? Here I was predicting that Haydon wouldn’t be on the Ducati next year and then he goes and puts in the most spectacular qualifying performance and probably would have translated that into a race result had he not been knocked off [...]
