So, you’ve heard that Formula One is back for 2010 and you’re looking to watch it this Sunday afternoon, from the comfort of your armchair? You would probably benefit from knowing a few things first, so here’s Badger’s no nonsense guide to this weekend’s action.
It’s the first race of the season and therefore it’s largely [...]

Describing a lap of the Bahrain International Circuit isn’t all that easy. Why? Well firstly they’ve made some changes for 2010, with the track now 900 metres longer. Not that that’s a long way to travel in a Formula One car. The new additions are in sector two, and it’s a bit of a twisty [...]

The second half of the season was Button’s iffy period, leaving four different drivers – Mark Webber, Lewis Hamilton, Rubens Barrichello and Kimi Raikkonen to all score victories. We saw Force India have a turn of form, Kimi get a Ferrari in front and Barrichello back on the top step of the podium. It can [...]

It all began in March this year at Albert Park, Australia and [...]

At the rather fantastic Brazilian grand prix we saw something that we haven’t for a while. Sure there was over-taking, which is always a bonus, but we were also given the rare treat of seeing that Formula One drivers do in fact have a personality behind their often present media facades. Thank you [...]

Bias in the press is always annoying, but it’s tricky to hide disdain for Ruby, which is why in my opinion yesterday’s qualifying session was a complete disaster. In recent days, Vettel’s title hopes have gone from being referenced in loud and derisory guffaws to quiet and admiring whispers; his total calm in the face [...]

Today’s qualifying session was much like its earlier counterpart; wet and interrupted. Whilst it could have been a lot worse for fans of Vettel, his hopes are greatly dashed now as he starts from P15 following a likely penalty for Liuzzi. Kobayashi had a good start to what looks to be a bright Formula One [...]
