Japan GP 2019
Saturday, October 19
The beautiful light, the amazing Japanese fans, the unique Suzuka circuit, all of this makes the Japanese Grand Prix a special occasion. A massive crowd turned up to cheer the Honda powered cars, but the race itself was pretty uneventful. Valtteri Bottas propelled his Mercedes from the second row, passed the front row Ferrari of Leclarc and Vettel, and that was it, the storming Finn was never to be seen again by his rivals.

France GP 2019

The French Grand Prix exemplified the deep seated problems currently plaguing Formula 1. Lewis Hamilton won, again, but what’s more interesting are his reflections following his FIA World Motor Sport Council meeting. Allow me to quote the excellent Mark Hughes: "The new regulations show great promise in simulation regarding the aerodynamics. But there’s a general feeling – expressed by Hamilton and thereby carrying some real power – that they otherwise are nowhere near radical enough. At the very least F1 needs most of the sporting penalty system ripped up and thrown away, replaced by a tough referee, one not afraid to use a black flag where appropriate. It needs a light and simple engine so the cars can be small and manoeuvrable, allowing the tyres to work. It needs a tyre war to help give competitive variation and better mechanical grip”. And, I will add, it desperately needs to get rid of the insane aerodynamics which mushroomed out of proportion over the years following the absurd introduction of the flat bottom in 1995.

Monaco GP 2019
Thursday, May 30
The benevolent shadow of Niki Lauda was hovering over Monaco this year. His indomitable spirit no doubt accompanied Lewis Hamilton as he resisted, lap after lap, the tremendous pressure exerted by the fiery Max Verstappen, who tried all he could to pass the Mercedes which had been fitted with the wrong choice of tires. There was definitely an air of Monaco 1992, when Nigel Mansell desperately tried to take the lead from Ayrton Senna, but had to surrender in the end. Like Senna, Hamilton didn't crack under pressure.
