    Great idea Keith. I regularly visit to check TV times and read reviews of previous races on the Thursday before a race so it’s nice to have everything all in one place. Then, an hour on F1 2006 on the PS2 to learn the track :) shame there’s no Singapore on there.

    Keith, big thanks (again) for all effort you’re putting in this blog.

    I sincerely hope all this will give you something more than a BIG emotional salary!

    You should start to think to ask us for a free contribution.

    I would pay with pleasure 60€ yearly for having you doing this job for all us! It’s time to stop saying you thanks, and starting to demonstrate our grateful.

    As Americans says, “money walks and bullsh** talks”

      free contribution

      I think you meant Fee contribution ;)

      I just want to say one thing here. All this hard work Keith’s putting in here will definitely pay off in the future. I think a time will come when people will come looking for Keith, cuz he’s got real passion for the sport 7 is highly knowledgeable . There are so many “so called” motor sport journalists who don’t understand head or tail bout the sport, yet they manage to cling on to their jobs for no good reason.

      And as IDR said even I wouldn’t mind contributing financially to make this blog the best.

        free contribution

        I wanted to say “Voluntary Contribution” (I hope this one is properly written) My “Scrappy English” is just Bulls***!!!!!!

      I don’t think very many people would pay to view a blog. Even one as good as this.
      Plus he clearly does this out of love for the sport rather than a love of money!

      But while we’re on the subject.
      Keith, do you get much money from the advertisements that are dotted around?
      Enough to make a significant contribution to the running costs?

        Nice idea with the post by the way.
        It’s good to have all this information in one place.

    This will benefit first time arrivals at your website. As for regular fanatics like me, this is just makes our job simpler.

    Nice work, good idea to bring all this together. Particularly liked the spectator comments; and things like support races and new changes to tracks are always hard to find.

    Entry lists don’t change much race to race, so how about a form guide alongside it: last few results and a couple of lines on whether the team and driver’s on the up or under pressure.

      deffinatly could do without the entry list…u should only flag important changes..this year has been a bit odd but you could have a ‘Driver/Team Changes’ portion. ex:
      “LIU in for FIS @ Force India, FIS to Ferrari for MAS”

      Current standings would be nice, maybe a ‘points difference to leader’ for those still in contention.

      1. LAK
        24th September 2009, 15:47

        Yeah I was going to suggest something similar.. I know you put a link to the current championship standings, but it would be nice if you can post them instead of the entry list..

        Great idea, this blog is really one of the best out there, you’re doing a great job on updating it, you always have the news on here first :) Keep up the good job!

      I like that idea, I’ll see what I can do for Japan.

        It’s a good idea, but not original I’m afraid, the ITV F1 site do the same.

            Having reflected I guess it doesn’t make any difference really, I’ll keep my mouth shut next time!

        I like the Form Guide idea
        Pitlane Fanatic have a pretty cool one :)
