Top 4 Drivers of the Portugese Grand Prix

4. Charles Leclerc 

Another day, another teammate disaster at Ferrari. Well... maybe not a disaster. But a clear 1/2 dichotomy nonetheless. Leclerc benefits from it this time. Do wonder though. What happened to the Vettel of 2015?

3. Kimi Raikkonen

Bonus points for entertainment! No other driver in his class has produced a drive like that this season. He shows his motivated class once again. Shout out to the sponsors on the back of Kimi's car last race. (Maybe give us one too?)

2. Pierre Gasly  

Another day, wait -- we already used that one. Anyways, Gasly continues to eradicate Kyvat off the face of the Earth. No one has come close to him since Verstappen. Anywhere but Red Bull would suit his career so well at this point. Hope he gets the right move forwards.

1. Lewis Hamilton 

Come on man. I could have put Perez, or Latifi, or Grosjean, but cmon. Bias aside, this has to be a moment worth celebrating. We cant limit his success because of how we feel about his car. As slow as the rest of the field may be in comparison this is by no means reason to forget what we're witnessing. Make sure you write this one down. This story's what the grandkids will be asking about.

5 Biggest Contracts In F1 History

5. Max Verstappen The youngest driver on this list seems destined to smash all other records, but for now, Verstappen's current deal keeps him at fifth all-time. After securing his second title in 2022, his £73 Million deal looks to actually be extraordinarily team-friendly. Nevertheless, it's the fifth biggest deal of all time, and has the dual World Champion with the team until 2027.  4. Sebastian Vettel  As far as the top 5 deals of all time go, it's quite easy to place this one as the least successful. Though the 2017 and 18 seasons looked initially promising for the Tifosi, Vettel's ill-fated mistake in Germany in 2019 was an accurate reflection of how his time at Ferrari went. Despite mostly dominating his long-standing Ferrari teammate Kimi Raikkonen, his reign coincided with the most dominant car/driver combination in Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes. Ultimately, his race wins will be fondly remembered, but his time was likely not worth the astounding £81 Million dea

5 Ugliest F1 Cars of All Time

5. 1977 Ligier What day is it? HUMP DAY! ( For those who don't get it ) This Ligier was interesting to say the least. The Tyrell 007 had a huge airbox as well and Tyrell was known for its crazy designs but Ligier just decided it wash't enough. If you put the image on Photoshop and outline it, it's as big at the cockpit of the car itself. 4. Ferrari 312 b3 Anyone need a forklift? This car was just plain weird, and I would expect more from Ferrari. It wasn't a great season for them either way, ugly cars generally don't work well historically. Obviously it's not a direct function, but factual. 3. Ensign N179 This car was another good try at an aerodynamic breakthrough, but unfortunately for Derek Daly, Patric Gailard, and Marc Surer, it didn't work. They scored no points and made a tiny bit of a mockery of themselves. Oh well, they continued on to improve until 1982. 2. Effeland Type 21 We're almost at number 1 and it's get

F1 Game 2012 Tips and Tricks

General Driving: Smooth is fast, especially on tracks like Hungary and Malaysia. Leveling out your acceleration is better as opposed to  immediately getting fully on the gas, even though it may feel faster. If you're slow through a particular corner, try slowing more on the entrance or take a new line. Always change the braking to high unless you're using locking brakes. Pick a car that has steering that is compatible with your driving style. For example, I know the Mclaren and the Sauber don't fit my style, but the Marussia and the Mercedes do. If you know you're going to hit the car in front of you, hit it as close to the middle of it as possible, that will lessen the possibility of them spinning and more importantly, you getting a penalty. Guiding rule of F1 2012:  Never accelerate when your rear wheels are on a kerb Career Mode:  Start with a lower level team because your teammate is going to be less competitive. Caterham is the lowest you can go and
