There's Saward's blog. fukk Saward as whole, and he keeps all the good shyt for GP+, but he often takes his time and really goes in on the behind the scenes stuff, and never really jumps the gun.

Peter Winsdor's blog. He tends to wax poetically about older things, shyt he was into. Great source for a colorful look on F1's past, and occassionally gets some experts around to really break down cars and drivers.

also @Bury Da Bwoy if you like the sport, I'd deffo suggest picking up some books about F1 in the past. I've ranted about this before, but F1 more than any sport (and it's not close really) has the most fukking amazing stories. And not just F1, pre Grand Prix era as well.

You have some of the brightest people around, no regulations, some of the most fearless brehs of the last century, all trying to figure out how to go faster side-by-side in a pre computer era. The technical innovations were wild, the tracks are a mix of , the drivers are heroes, and stories range from momentous to tragedy of the highest order.

I recently finished off a book called The Limit: Life and Death in Formula One's Most Dangerous Era

It's based around telling the story of the 1961 season, but it does it by giving you every side of it. The drivers involved, their stories, pasts, etc etc, and especially within the Ferrari team, Enzo himself (can't even put dude into words). Here's the synopsis.

It's 10 September, 1961: at the boomerang-shaped racetrack at Monza, in northern Italy, half a dozen teams are preparing for the Italian Grand Prix. It is the biggest race anyone can remember. Phil Hill - the first American to break into the top ranks of European racing - and his Ferrari teammate, Count Wolfgang von Trips - a German nobleman with a movie-star manner - face each another in a race that will decide the winner of the Formula One drivers' championship. By the day's end, one man will clinch that prize. The other will perish face down on the track.

F1 history is better than fiction b. If this was a movie you'd give it the and call it over the top, melodramatic, and ridiculous. But this shyt was life, year after year.

"Mata doesn't have a whole lot of faith in welbeck who clearly has been told he can leave the football club"

Mata has barely touched the ball.

Guardian liveblog comment:
"Jozy Altidore suddenly finds himself charging at the backtracking United defence, with Wickham up alongside him for support. Then he tries a stepover."

 

[Julius Skrrvin]
