@manlio27: Ferrari will get a new team principal from 2022 onwards. I guess it has never been an easy task for such a legendary team especially with the italian press. Except for Ross Brawn their was always a sort of success but also major drawbacks…
@silverghost: thankfully the other drivers winning in a Minardi are still alive. For example Robert Doornbos who you just mentioned (he won twice in Champcar with Minardi Team USA). In 2007 both Minardi by GP Racing won four events, those beeing Dav…
a "where are they now" seems interesting and I've been thinking about this too. De Cesaris unfortunately also passed away following an accident in 2014. Baumgartner and Friesacher drove the remaining twoseaters for Stoddy in the last year as part of…
I'm still around. From the races I was able to watch, I agree that the racing for the most part is much better in comparision with recent years. Mercedes teams seem to struggle the most. Alfa Romeo and Haas back in the midfield. Kinda disappointend …
well I did enjoy the last race, too. I would say that the FIA would face about the same trouble if the SC stayed out until the race was finished. If all cars past it Verstappen would have probably also had enough tracktime to still overtake Lewis. I…
tough to make a prediction but I'll give it a go:
Mercedes: on top again even if that ist getting lame.
RB: Few victories but maybe more than in 2020. Perez will have to show that he can handle RB better than Gasly or Albon. Even Ricciardo or Sainz …
Wow. It's been a while but the season will now start at Spielberg in the upcoming week. Good to see Alphatauri testing at Imola this week. Williams lost ROKIT sponsorship and every team gets the same amount of tyres. Apart from that no major news. U…
Meanwhile I noticed that the renaming of Racing Point will not happen until 2021 season. Their 2020 runner seems kinda copycat of last years Mercedes in terms of aerodynamics. Somewhere I recently read HAAS would be thinking about leaving. Last seas…
Well after just two races it's still kinda tough to say who is in which spot troughout the season. Red Bull seems to be about the same as in the beginning of 2018, same goes for Williams except they seem even more at the back (like Manor in 2014). F…
Well, as you probably saw during the broadcast of the Silverstone GP, the twoseaters were there as well.
Since they were originally based in England, that was almost like a return to their home.
On a german site I read that they would be at every s…
What I just noticed: there were three different M189 at Imola. Two taking part on the event (as you can see on the video) and another one in the "Checco Costa" museum. So the one M189 on ebay obviously has been sold, there were just two of them back…
Here's my review:
Except for the weather I almost liked everything. It was raining on both days (not the whole, but a lot of the time) but sunday was less so to go only on the second day looks like it was the right choice. Because of weather condit…
In the meanwhile tickets for both days (one day separate or two together) are avaiable right here: [url]https://www.ticketone.it/biglietti.html?affiliate=ITT&xtnp=1&erid=1867869&xtmc=minardi&action=tickets&doc=artistPages/tickets…
Well, I can confirm that I will be back in Imola as well.
Probably I will be there on sunday only since I will exploree italian seights a little more that week.
Hoping to get more informations about the schedule soon.
here are a few more:
I was a little sick during weekend till today so I will need more time for all pictures and movies. As you may notice there was a PS02 nose on the PS04B in the gallery and also a PS01 with the PS05 livery. Next to the PS0…
as I promised I was there. Here are a few pics from my website (will upload the other ones until sunday)
It was really a nice event. I only wished that the Minardi F1 cars did a few more laps when I sat on the grandstand. What I did not unte…
As I just read on minardi.it there will be ALL Minardi F1 cars from M185 till PS05 and even all STR (except the current one). Martinis M189 and Vettels STR3 (the victorious one from Monza) also been confirmed. Only downside is I hardly speak italian…
I finally have some REAL news!
You can find further details here: www.minardiday.it (if you click on "PROGRAMMA" you will receive the schedule in italian and english).
Tickets are avaible and cheap (€ 10) here: http://vivaticket.it/index.php?nvpg[…
As I wrote above, I will be there. I recently booked a room from 24th till 26th June in the Rivazza Hotel which is located within the track.
@ Bish: from the UK it's really a long journey, even compared to germany (about 1000 km). Getting Paul to do…
GREAT NEWS - the "Minardi historic day" was OFFICIAL ANNOUCENT on minardi.it. It will take place on 25th of June this summer (it's a saturday). Except for the date and the fact that there will be a lot of Minardi and other F3 and F2 cars there are n…
It's still not sold yet: http://www.ebay.de/itm/Minardi-M190-F1-1990-Pierluigi-Martini-Paolo-Barilla-Hockenheim-Ring-wartet-/331744871164?hash=item4d3d8902fc:g:EpAAAOSwsB9WAg4j
The price is now almost € 300.000 . Maybe we should give someone a hint…
sorry. The link doesn't work (I'm used to put in in BB-Code). Try this one :http://www.minardi.it/international/news/minardi-it-meets-pierluigi-martini/
The last update was that it might take place at the end of june. Nothing confirmed yet but there will be more details in the next months. "The period should be at the end of June, but we will know something more only next months. Our aim is to bring…
It's been bout a year when I read the last quote of him on motorsport-total.com where he spoke about the chances of Ricciardo vs Vettel at RedBull (looking forward to the 2014 season).
Good news: It was official confirmed that Caterham will be back at Abu Dhabi. Right now they have reached "only" about 80%. But they changed it so 100% have to be reached until the sunday on which the race will take place. They'll be there anyway wi…
21% - I'm thinking about to make a little promo-video for this on youtube since there hasn't been one yet. With a few youtubers or other f1-related sites I tink they'll make it.
Clock is ticking...
Update: I think the chances are really well that we will see Caterham on the final race. I just donated enough for the "Special Edition T-Shrit" and between this two postings the achieved amount has almost doubled (currently about 12%).
Still 88% t…
