blogentry-133713-0-62513500-1474508145_thumb.jpgTwo-time world champion Fernando Alonso claims that current regulations is killing all the fun out of F1. And if things don't become more exciting in the next season, Alonso might be looking at joining other racing series, according to Motorsport.com. McLaren which isn't doing as well as they would like to currently, would definitely benefit in some rule changes too.

 

Thankfully, 2017 will see an increase in aerodynamic and mechanical grip, as wider wings and tyres become the new standard. It is estimated that up to four to five seconds can be shaved off each lap with the change. Hopefully, viewers and drivers can see more overtakings and battles with the change.

 

In the article, Alonso did added on that he isn't ready to retire at his current age of 35 and he has been linked in the past to drive at Le Mans and the associated FIA World Endurance Championship. His contract with McLaren ends at the end of the next Formula 1 season and is one of the oldest on the grid.

  • A 20-year journey, an old passion rekindled

    For us 90s babies, the Holy Trinity of Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network formed a big part of our childhood. The internet was just about coming into fruition, with the rise of a plethora of websites with numerous entertaining flash games and of course, the early days of YouTube. And though those things have come and gone, one thing in my life remained constant: My love for Pokemon. I first got into Pokemon 20 years ago, and I remember exactly how it went down. Let me set the

    Armored MMA

    Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) is a brutal sport that, in recent decades, has grown to significant prominence.  Whatever you make of the sport (and the often complicated and sometimes problematic climate that swirls around it), there's no denying its popularity, driven in large part by the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) brand - a multi-billion-dollar global enterprise.  But if partially-clothed men/women beating the s*it out of each other is not quite your thing, may I interest you in

    Cordless vacuum cleaners: A young adult's best friend?

    Every young adult probably arrives at the same point when they’ve started working for a few years: Household chores start to become more enjoyable. Don’t get me wrong – they don’t have to be one’s favourite activity on earth. But chores start to make sense: An environment that’s put-together is always a welcome haven, whether it’s returning home after a long day out, or simply staying in over the weekend (or when you’re working from home.) As a young adult myself, I've come to appreciate an
