grand prix

2015 is officially over and done with, after statistically being over and done with about a month ago and emotionally over and done with several months ago. This race was not too bad I thought, the first lap was pretty chaotic and then during the race there was a bit of interest coming from...

With both championships wrapped up there's always the risk that the rest of the season will be a damp squib, but in Mexico it seems we've un(or re-)covered a real gem of a venue with fans packing the grandstands. Rosberg controlled this one from the front, finally able to take advantage of his...

What a race! After a weekend almost completely destroyed by rain/storms we were treated to an absolutely manic Sunday thanks to a drying track. Rosberg started off pole only to be barged out of the way pretty robustly by Hamilton, with both Mercedes then struggling to keep back the Red Bulls...

And so with the result of the Russian Grand Prix in and Hamilton taking maximum points with his team mate failing to score, the season moves from early evening into sunset as we head into the next race. Leading the championship by 66 points with 100 left to play for there is a chance that...

Normality resumed after the topsy turvy result at Singapore then with a Mercedes one-two and any hint of a late Vettel surge in the championship gone. Kvyat's big off in qualifying meant the driver's didn't get to complete their final runs in Q3, and it was Rosberg who had done enough to take...

Friday and Saturday offered much intrigue as Mercedes struggled, being slower than both Ferrari and Red Bull all weekend. This offered a hint of maybe getting a good race as Vettel stuck it on pole with the Mercedes drivers back on the 3rd row. Unfortunately, all we got is replacing 2014-15 spec...

Another race that offered little apart from DRS overtakes after a promising result in qualifying saw both Ferraris split the Mercedes, only for Raikkonen to immediately fall to the back of the back after suffering some issue at the start. Ridiculously large grid penalties for Red Bull, Toro...

Back to normal with a 1-2 for Mercedes at Spa then, but a nice surprise in seeing Grosjean up there in 3rd - great result for Lotus with all their off-track struggles. Pirelli will have a lot of questions to answer after Vettel suffered the second dramatic tyre failure of the weekend, albeit at...

For a circuit that's supposedly impossible to overtake at the Hungaroring has given us yet another great race! Both Mercedes lost out at the start again before the first of Lewis' mistakes left him way back around 10th with all sorts of work to do. Rosberg couldn't match the pace of the Ferraris...

It is not the most popular of Grand Prix circuits. It is tight and twisty, staggeringly difficult to overtake on, and not especially scenic. Its nicknames hardly inspire confidence - "Monaco without the walls", "the Dustbowl", "Hungaboring". They're also not especially fair. This is the circuit...

We finally got a race! A couple of stellar starts from Williams put Mercedes under pressure, but they eventually managed to come out on a top thanks to good strategy on Lewis' side of the garage letting him overtake the pair of them on the undercut and then later on the rain gave Rosberg the...

Rosberg had the better of Hamilton all weekend apart from in Q3, and then a good start got him and kept him in front. Raikkonen and Alonso had a nasty coming together on the first lap and Button retired quite soon after to continue McLaren's misery. Apart from that there were a few decent...

Out of the ashes of World War II came a lot of military installations scarcely needed now blowing up enemies was not a priority. Well not so much of a priority. Silverstone airfield on the Bucks/Northants border was such an installation. With Brooklands going the other way - a victim of the...

Montreal nearly always gives us a decent race and, by this year's standards, I think it did today too. It wasn't spectacular but we had battles throughout the field, helped by Vettel and Massa's issues in qualifying yesterday which saw them fight their way up in to the points. Marussia even got...

Another procession more or less, but a scray looking incident that we got to see live between Verstappen and Grosjean followed by a stupid mistake from Mercedes to gift Rosberg the win and lose them a 1-2. But how did you rate it?

Borefest or something special? How did you rate the Spanish grand prix out of 10? Posted on behalf of sushifiesta.
