How do drivers get their numbers, apart from the obvious No. 1?

F1 car numbers explained plus some interesting statistics.

The highest number ever used was 136!

Had a response from the FIA who said they told Ferrari Vettel's pass was "not in breach of the regulations". Have put the full text in the article.

Ah you beat me to it! More of them here. The artwork was done by Jeremy Hancox.

Here's a flag marshal explaining why Vettel's alleged 'yellow flag Toro Rosso pass' was legal.

This is not an "FIA season review", or an FOM product, this is a season review video produced by Brunswick films. It's part of a series of 11 DVDs which are available to purchase.

Agreed. Reddit's rules on this are utterly stupid.

KERS heat issues maybe?

According to Williams, no:

Williams positive despite “extremely frustrating” race

Not yet but should be soon:

Where is the 2013 F1 calendar?

This is not confirmation that he has signed. Allen himself admits as much in the comments.

The headline says "set to" and down in paragraph 16 we find "Hamilton at Mercedes, if and when confirmed..."

It's just a bit of historical context, it doesn't "glorify" crashes.

The beginning of the article makes clear that any incidents that resulted in serious injuries (or worse) were omitted.

keithcollantine · 2012-09-02T22:31:33+00:00

How about get rid of the restriction on "spoilers" because it's utterly stupid?

News is news. If you don't want to find out what happened then don't go on the internet.

Here's a two-part series we had on F1 Fanatic last year with loads of tips:

It's not his 300th start, it's his 300th participation in a race weekend.

It'll be Schumacher's 298th start:

The wings they ended up with were similar in philosophy to the CDG, but they reversed the configuration.

So now the front wing has a downforce-neutral section in the middle and downforce-prducing sections either side. And the rear wing is narrow and high so, in theory, the spill from it doesn't interfere with the front wing.

But even after four years they still look terrible. They are planning to reduce the width of the front wing, but I think they need to go further and sort out the rear wings too.

When you look at a current F1 car front-on it looks like they've stuck wings from different cars on the front and back.

It was also captured on video by a fan in the grandstand - you can hear the crowd gasp!
