  • F1: DC visits NASCAR – but it’s only a visit, honest…

    David Coulthard is flying out to North America in advance of the Canadian Grand Prix to visit a NASCAR race – but the mere suggestion of a career change is being heavily frowned upon by his team.

  • F1: Magny-Cours is off the calendar

    Magny-Cours – the rural French racetrack famed for having facilities so poor that David Coulthard was inspired to go out and buy a motorhome – is officially off the F1 calendar.

  • F1: The Red Bull takeover proceeds apace…

    When Red Bull Racing made its debut in F1 back in 2005, with more front than Dolly Parton and a motorhome big and flash enough to take on McLaren’s, jaws dropped. And everything the team did, from sending David Coulthard up onto the Monaco podium dressed in a sponsors’ Superman cloak, to encouraging its principal…

  • F1: new regulations leave DC unimpressed

    It was veterans’ day at the Circuit de Catalunya in the last testing session before the Australian Grand Prix, as Jarno Trulli forced a surprise burst of speed out of his Toyota to top the standings.

  • F1: Jerez testing report – day three (Jan 16)

  • F1 quotes: DC says Schumacher’s time is past

    We’ve never got the impression before that David Coulthard and Michael Schumacher were necessarily the best of mates.

  • A1GP: drivers turn out for Autosport International

    Anyone with a burning desire to meet the people on the front line of A1GP’s World Cup of Motorsport should get themselves right along to the NEC in Birmingham this weekend. (You could catch up with Jenson Button, Mark Webber and David Coulthard too, but that’s another story altogether…)
