I wish Michelin would start making an endurance 200TW tire to compete with the Hankook Ventus RS4S and Continental Extreme Contact Force, and in even more sizes. The Pilot Sport Cup 2s are great, but even at 240 TW, the life on them is far, far, far less than RS4s and ECFs, while still having roughly the same lap Read more

The C6 has grip for days, it just feels like a heavy car (which it is). I put KW adjustable springs, H&R ARBs and a fast road alignment on mine. It’s much happier switching directions now. The beauty of the C6 is the tunability. Mine only has panel filters, exhaust and a map and it’s running 730bhp/1000nm.

C5 RS6 - the perfect car. Purposeful form rendered subtly. A real stealth performance car. Read more

100th running of the Hill Climb...as a race fan and hiker - well worth it! Read more

Well hey there Buddy! Been following you on here for years so I actually hung around until I saw your run! Read more

Very cool piece, love your writing! One note, Senegal is in West Africa, not Eastern Africa. Read more

This. No way he intended to cause a crash. Which doesn’t get him totally off the hook - it’s cheeky as hell and you’d want to avoid that kind of stuff, but let’s not overreact. Read more

Regardless of your opinion of Hamilton this is hilariously untrue. He’s had down seasons where he’s been slightly outperformed by his teammate but overall he’s completely outclassed whoever was in the other car Read more

Great to see you writing here Robb, I hope we get some coverage of your upcoming season! Read more

Ha! Yeah that 2015 race WAS batshit crazy. Read more

Saying they didn’t have the live feed of Verstappen’s onboard is horseshit. Anthony Davidson was on the live feed saying that he was constantly watching Hamilton’s onboard. If the TV presenter can see it, the FIA stewards and FIA personnel can see it. Read more

Well, they did give Hamilton a 10-second penalty, and Hamilton actually made the corner in Silverstone. Read more

Important pup-date! He brought his dog to victory lane!

Though it was Lewis race to loose as the Mercedes was the car to beat yesterday. He could have probably passed him next corner and gain points for the championship. I get it, he showed Max how tough he can be but I don’t think Max will learn from it. It is like asking Senna or Schumi to learn from their actions. Read more

I wish Max had helped Lewis out of his car. That would have been a great moment in sportsmanship.  Read more

Always enjoy and appreciate your professional insight to help us all interpret these racing incidents from a racer’s perspective. Greatly appreciated, Robb. Read more

Great insight.  It’s nice to hear a pros opinion. Read more

This is tough. I suppose the most middlest of the middle gets two armrests, and I suppose the two flanking middles just get their outer armrests, and, in an ideal society, a free alcoholic drink. Read more
