Josh Bohn: Italian GP Review

Lewis Hamilton dominated the Italian grand prix at monza, putting him in second place in the drivers world championship! Sergio Perez took advantage of the tyres to take home the second place trophy, while the Ferraris of Fernando Alonso and Felipe Massa took third and fourth respectively. My drivers of the day goes to... Lewis Hamilton and Sergio Perez. Yes that's two drivers, but I feel it would be unfair not to give the people the credit they deserve! However I feel that this race calls for a look at the stewards decisions. For example, The rules say that if a driver goes offline to defend they must stay offline and not move back onto the racing line again (Or something like that) I.E. One move! It appeared as though several drivers broke that rule, and given that Seb was given a drive through penalty for defending (Albeit aggressively) Surely action should have been taken. Or at least investigated. So Alonso still leads with Hamilton in second and, despite not having won a race yet, Raikkonen is an impressive third! In two weeks Formula 1 heads off to Singapore for... err... The Singapore Grand Prix! Get ready to yawn.

Josh Bohn: Belgian GP Review

Crash! That was the scene at the first corner of the Belgian grand prix at Spa. And it was from the first corner that Jenson Button Led to the flag, winning by an impressive margin! Good, that's the winners story covered, now for the rest of the pack. Vettel took a resurgent second place from 10th, and Kimi took 3rd. Nico Hulkenberg was a superb 4th for Force India, from 11th on the grid! Massa did well to take 5th. Although what would Alonso have done if he had finished? We will never really know. But my driver of the race (Apart from the dominant Button) Was Bruno Senna, who proved he was a man who would be hard to pass! Much like his uncle.No matter how much Vettel or Massa tried, they found it difficult to find a way past! But unfortunately a slow puncture stopped him from converting great driving into a points finish! In my opinion Williams would be stupid to sack Senna, because he is bringing the car home in one piece, and capable of winning consistently. But lets talk about penalties, as several drivers got them. Romain got a 1 race ban for dangerous driving: Fair, because he drove dangerously at the start. Pastor received two 5 place grid penalties, 1 for his jump start and another for causing a collision. both of which are fair. So at the end of the Belgian Grand Prix, Fernando Alonso still leads the drivers championship, but Vettel in second closed the gap. Formula 1 now heads to Monza, for the Italian Grand Prix. I Cant wait!

Penalty Overload??

Have the stewards gone mad?? In years gone by, things like this would go without penalty... (in the video, Andrea De Cesaris nearly takes out Mansell while being lapped!)

                                                                                     

Meanwhile, in 2012, this means a hefty fine???

I'm sorry, but I think the stewards are dishing out far too many penalties. F1 has lost a factor of excitement in that drivers are now scared to go for moves in fear of contact and a penalty. I understand that there are serious incidents that need penalised (Maldonado repeated offences etc.) but come on stewrads, give the drivers a break!

Josh Bohn- Heikki stay with Caterham

Hello everyone and thank you for reading my 1st proper F1 Blog! Heikki Kovalainen, who currently races for Caterham, has recently been linked to Ferrari, but I feel that, while he is deserving of a drive in a top team, going back to a top team would be a shame when he hasn't yet done something he wanted to do. Get Caterham into the points. The last few seasons will have been a waste of his skills if he goes back to a top team without scoring points for Caterham. Especially to Ferrari, where as we all know, Fernando Alonso is the real number 1! Then again could this be his last shot at a top drive? No, I don't think so. He is fast enough to get a top drive in a team where he wont keep having to let his team mate past to the command "Fernando is faster than you" 

By the way I am on twitter @joshbohnf1

Josh Bohn: Introduction

Hello Fellow F1 fans and may I say thank you for reading my first blog. As this is my first blog, I thought I would use it to introduce myself. My name is Joshua Bohn, and I have been an F1 fan for about 4 years, specifically from when Lewis Hamilton Won the 2008 drivers title! I have been a Hamilton/ Mclaren fan since then. However I am also a fan of other teams and drivers, such as Jenson Button, Paul di resta, Romain Grosjean, Heikki Kovalainen, Lotus and Caterham! As you will find out over the next few months, I have opinions on many of the current F1 stories and look forward to sharing them with you! Watch this space...
