Schumacher was not a "great" driver. He had, at that time, a car which was unbeatable and streets ahead of any other team on the F1 circuit. Had you given me that Ferrari, I would have won the world championship.    Michael Schumacher     In contrast, Senna was a "great" driver as was Mansell, and both deserved to be recognised as such. In respect of Hamilton, he may not be particularly likable as a person but he has also achieved the right to be recognised as a "great" driver.       Ayrton Senna     Nigel Mansell              ...

http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2015/mar/16/bernie-ecclestone-f1-red-bull-mercedes-australian-gp Ecclestone backs Red Bull’s call to rein in Mercedes F1 dominance   Bernie Eccleston with Christian Horner Mercedes leads Red Bull When Ferrari dominated every race for season after season nobody said a word about "action to rein in" Ferrari's car and engine advantage and "make races more competitive". Ferrari 1 and 2. The rest not even in sight   Now the "poison dwarf", Eccleston joins "sour grapes" Christian Horner seeking to "make races more competitive after a one-sided start to the season", by imposing restrictions on Mercedes! The arrogance and hypocrisy of these two F1 connivers is breathtaking. With the history of Eccleston and his "colourfu l" actions and ideas we should not be surprised but I would have expected better from Horner. He has always given me the impressio...

Senna was killed in an accident during the San Marin Grand Prix at Imola on the 1st May 1994. He was 34 years old. It seems incredible that it is 20 years since I watched that race on television and those sad scenes of the Williams leaving the racing line and hitting the retaining wall, the crashed car and the medical personnel attending the accident. That weekend also saw Roland Ratzenberger, killed during qualifying the previous day and Rubens Barrichello, seriously injured in a separate accident. Ironically, it was at that eve...

A museum dedicated to F1 legend Nigel Mansell will open in Jersey next week.    Museum has a collection of F1 cars and many  trophies. Mansell Collection   It would cost Mum, Dad and two children £30 to see these exhibits. If the "children" were 14 on more then the cost would be £40. Now that seem a bit expensive to me. Another "Tourist attraction" that the tourists will think twice about, before visiting.
