I love Frank Williams, his straight talking is such a rarity in such a PR orientated sport. "When asked if Maldonado was only at Williams in the first place because of money, Williams said: "Yeah, he was to some extent. I'm not denying that. But if we thought he'd been a wanker, he wouldn't...

I cunningly decided to move Maldonado on and replace him with Mr Schumacher, go me! I'm glad I got rid of the Red Bull before the price went down, 36,000,000 was really over valued. Having said that, it's a damn shame I decided to replace it with another McLaren given that it seems the team are...

Until I read your comment I thought your Viper had the noisiest fuel pump in the known universe! Awesome car, I wasn't too sure about the blue but it looks epic in the sunshine, have fun with it.

What do people think about the Williams car this year? 1 race fluke or a genuinely fast car. I'm really hoping the latter but fear that may not be the case. It's not that I don't like the other mid-field teams, I'd just much rather Williams succeeds than they do. Especially Torro Rosso, they're...

I'm so glad that the dominance we all got used to over the 2010/11 seasons appears to be at an end. I have to say that although Button was doing great things, the bulk of my attentions were on Maldonado, it was such a shame that he crashed out when he did. I would dearly love to see Williams...

How did you manage that? 35mm film has always been pretty resilient when I've used it, maybe you have some kind of super-man strength. What film is that by the way?

What's up with people over-sharpening eyes? It really ruins a great shot for me...

Until the bodywork trenches get dramatically banned mid-season.

Do you know what they called it? I'd like to watch it but can't seem to find it anywhere.

How long has it been since an unexpected race win from a car lower down in the pack, was it actually Vettel's win in the Torro Rosso? I can't recall how it happened but it would be great to see something similar from a mid-pack team. Is it possible with some sort of mid-season super update or is...

Eh? I'd say that was pretty impressive for ISO 12800 shots with large quantities of detail in the shadows. The only thing I wonder is why the D700 shot has so much more 'pop', the colours in the D800 example look pretty muted.

I thought Charlie Whiting agreed that all the exhausts were legal some time ago. Presumably like everything it will be declared legal and then banned soon after.

I was considering getting an 80-200 AF-D some time ago, I ended up with a 70-200 VR that wasn't pretty cosmetically but worked fine. I'd go with that every time over a new 80-200 purely for AF speed (I seem to remember reports of the 80-200 AF-D being slow). That or you can try and pick up an...

Wow, that's an incredible price. They are still selling here privately for about ?1200 with a few thousands actuations.

I may as well give it a shot. Forced Restart Alonso, Raikkonen, Hulkenberg and Kovalainen. Red Bull, McLaren, Lotus, Force India. I have literally no idea what I'm doing. I thought if I get a nice mixture of drivers and cars it may all come together. Chaos theory applied to Formula 1? Who...
