In this three week summer break in the lead up to Valencia and the ban on testing, not much happens in the world of F1. So lets take a look at the last track we visited, and ask the question – should it remain on the calendar?

These days Williams is routinely towards the back of the grid. However, only a few years the team was fighting for podiums, race wins and championships. What has gone wrong? And can the team ever reclaim its former glory?

Want to watch another spec series? Indycar, NASCAR, GP2, A1GP, the new F2, and many others are spec series (more or less). Now we have yet another — Superleague Formula Championship. This is a meld of the worlds of motor racing and football. You really couldn't make it up.

We've all heard about Nelson Piquet. Close followers of GP2 will be familiar with the name Bruno Senna. Rosberg and Nakajima all have racing driver dads. What's going on? Is nepotism rife in F1?

After last year's championship many expected Kimi Raikkonen to assume the leadership of Ferrari. Not so. Over the last couple of races Felipe Massa is establishing himself as the man in red that McLaren needs to beat. John Beamer investigates.

The circus moves onwards and upwards to Germany and Hockenheim. Although the Nurburgring is a far superior track the German GP is on a strict rotation policy at the minute — Keith bemoans the influence of Herman Tilke on this monstrous creation.

Banco Santander, one of the biggest and best run banks in the world, is rumoured to be switching allegiance from McLaren to Ferrari in 2010. That can only mean one thing: that the double World Champion, Fernando Alonso, is about to relocate to Italy. John Beamer takes a look at this and F2.

Just when you thought that spygate had been put to bed it decides to rear its ugly head once more. Reports last week suggest that McLaren's $100m fine could be illegal. While Ron probably won't get his money back it does raise questions (again) as to what the FIA were playing at.

Anthony Davidson has joined thousands of other who have lost their jobs in the credit crunch. However, Ant had a new job last weekend — colour commentator for Radio Five Live's F1 coverage. Keith Collantine considers whether he could turn it into a full time TV role.

It's war. Two old chums, Bernie Ecclestone and Max Mosely, are officially at war with each other. First comes Bernie's hamfisted attempts to undermine the FIA vote of Max's suitability for the head job. Now a rejuvenated Max has fired back. Who will win?
