Sportscar correspondent Gary Watkins hosszan beszél az Autosport főszerkesztőjével, Kevin Turnerrel, az 1983-as Formula 1-es szezonról – az ő kedvenc szezonjáról a történelemben. Ez egy új korszakot jelentett a bajnokság számára, mivel a ‘térfogat-hatású’ padlók betiltásra kerültek, ami intenzív csatát hozott a turbófeltöltéses motorok és a természetes szívású Cosworth V8 motorok között. Az 1983-as szezonban Nelson Piquet és Alain Prost között zajlott a harc, ahol végül a brazil a dél-afrikai utolsó futamon megszerezte második címét.

Under Carlos Ghosn, Renault prioritized cost-cutting, leading to a bland product lineup, and subsequent leadership struggles. De Meo’s experience at Fiat and…

Recently, a friend, a strong supporter of Lewis Hamilton, sent me a message questioning if Hamilton is currently in free fall. Shortly after, I received an email with comments from former F1 driver Johnny Herbert, suggesting that Ferrari should prioritize Charles Leclerc over Hamilton, who seems to have lost his way with the team. Herbert’s viewpoint makes sense, especially considering Hamilton’s recent performance in the Spanish GP where he finished sixth, dependent on Max Verstappen’s penalty. Meanwhile, Leclerc secured another podium finish, showcasing his potential as Ferrari’s future. Despite Hamilton’s…

At the 1982 Monaco Grand Prix, Nigel Roebuck described it as a “real strange” race, ultimately becoming one that nobody seemed to want to win.
