There was a time when we came from school that we turned on the computer and started F12001. Well for me, this was for a while the daily routine back in my early teens. Now 25 years later EA Sport’s fourth F1 games (F12000, F1200CS, F1 Manager Came before) is the forgotten one in a […]

Tom Walkinshaw’s Orange Arrows team had a decent season in 2000 with Jos Verstappen and Pedro de la Rosa performing excellent. The Supertec engine was great and the Arrows A21 was a neat design.

As there are over 650 Unraced F1 projects from the period 1885 – 2020 I decided before to publish articles of unraced projects per year. This is easier for you to see which attempts happened a specific year. Of course, it is easier for me as well as researching and writing an article takes a […]
