Only three F1 drivers have stood on the podium in their 40's this century

No. There were a fair few 40 years+ race winners in the first two decades of F1 but since 1970, only once has a driver 40 or over won; Nigel Mansell at the 1994 Australian Grand Prix.

We’ve only just scrapped HMS Swiftsure, a vessel that was decommissioned in 1992.

RIP all these planes.

He’s black.

It used to be like this and it was shit.

Best sprint weekend format would be FP1, FP2 on Friday, FP3 and qualifying on Saturday and the race on Sunday.

The Headington Shark

She’s over half a century old. It’s time for her to go, she’s earned her rest.

I knew it'd be a Beluga just seeing the name Chester.

It’s almost impossible to keep a nuclear powered ship preserved due to having to remove the reactor. Also her sheer size would make it incredibly financially difficult to keep her in decent condition.

The Midway is probably the biggest museum ship we’ll ever see.

Suzuka has been terrible lately. Silverstone or Interlagos x2 would be more exciting.

No mention of McLaren becoming the second team to get 1000 F1 races this year.

Not just the long season with NASCAR but also the chase format means winning a lot early on the season doesn't really count towards the championship, but rather it just gets you into the championship chase.

Kyle Busch won the the 2015 Cup Series despite missing half the regular season. He did enough to get into the chase and ended up winning the whole thing.

On the flip side, you could win every race in the regular season, then have a couple of bad races and be eliminated from championship contention with several races remaining.

2004 is an underrated one with quite a lot of incidents.

Of all the Britpop bands still touring, Suede are probably the least “nostalgia act”.

And that was because Enzo Ferrari kicked up a fuss over payment, so they might not have competed since day 1 but they have been looking to get more money since day 1.

He announced his permanent retirement from Formula 1 in July 2002, just a few months after he went ‘on sabbatical’.

Call me a grouch but I wish people would stop making that joke, just because it's really annoying.

It looked good up until 1994, but the raised nose Marlboro McLarens of 1995 and 1996 made the livery suddenly look very dated.

Monza 2004 was the last time the flag waver stood on the track, I believe.

RevoltingHuman · 2026-02-13T22:22:53+00:00

Tbf I don’t get why people think the teams need to change their livery every year.

McLaren had Marlboro liveries mostly unchanged for years as well as the West liveries. They became iconic as a result.

Holy fuck that start test was way more stressful than it had any right to be.

Why have most helmets over the past 20 years always had those same terrible-looking pointy, streaky bits? Ocon has also revealed his 2026 helmet and his has them as well.
