Riding in the rain is risky if you're not well geared up or an experienced rider. But this doesn't mean you should stow your two wheeler away; with caution and practice, you can ride during rain without much struggle. Here are a few tips for getting yourself and your two-wheeler ready for a better riding experience. Ensure Proper Tyre Maintenance Before the monsoon sets in, it is essential to check on the condition of your bike's tyres. Ensure the tyres are in good condition, have a good grip, and have enough tread. A weary tyre will reduce the friction between the tyre and the road, which might force skidding and leading to accidents. Also, make sure to inspect the … [Read more...] about Essential Guidelines For Riding Your Two Wheeler During Monsoons – Rainy Roads Ahead

Lewis Hamilton reveals data compromise with true Mercedes pace still unknown
Lewis Hamilton has revealed that Mercedes’ understanding of their major Formula 1 upgrade was compromised in Monaco due to weight-saving necessities, with the team hoping for a clearer understanding at this weekend’s Spanish Grand Prix. Despite being restricted to just a single victory last season, Mercedes committed to retaining the controversial zero-pod car concept for the start of 2023. However, after a bruising performance at the season opener in Bahrain, team boss Toto Wolff was forced to admit the eight-time Constructors’ Champions had pursued the wrong development path for the new season and ordered sweeping changes. A heavily revised W14 was originally set to appear for the first time at the Emilia Romagna GP earlier this month, but the cancellation of the Imola race due to extreme weather in the region saw Mercedes to debut their new look in Monte Carlo instead despite the unique nature of the circuit making it a less-than-ideal place to bring a significant update. … [Read more...] about Lewis Hamilton reveals data compromise with true Mercedes pace still unknown
Ferrari ditch sidepod concept with Red Bull philosophy copied
Ferrari will reportedly move away from their unique sidepod design and towards something more resembling Red Bull’s in Spain. There has been no stopping the dominant Red Bull outfit across the opening six rounds of the season, Max Verstappen having picked up four victories to team-mate Sergio Perez’s two, while Ferrari have only one podium finish to show for their efforts. It is a far cry for the title challenge which the Scuderia had been targeting going into F1 2023, but a major shift in approach is seemingly now on the horizon in a bid to take Ferrari closer to that conversation. Autosport are reporting that as part of an upgrade package for the Spanish Grand Prix, Ferrari will move on from its unique ‘bathtub’ sidepod concept, and instead introduce a design more heavily influenced by the Red Bull concept, though not resembling a ‘direct copy’. Race days have been a particular area of concern for the Scuderia so far this season, with tyre management difficulties carrying … [Read more...] about Ferrari ditch sidepod concept with Red Bull philosophy copied
Sergio Perez renews F1 2023 approach amid rising Max Verstappen points gap
Sergio Perez has revealed his focus is now on maximising each individual race weekend after falling 39 points behind Red Bull team-mate Max Verstappen in the F1 2023 standings. The Mexican made his best-ever start to a season this year, winning convincingly in Saudi Arabia and Azerbaijan to emerge as a potential threat to two-time World Champion Verstappen. Perez spoke optimistically of his title chances after winning the second race of the campaign in Jeddah and boldly declared: “I really believe that I have the full support of the team as much as Max does and I will have every single opportunity to win the Championship as much as he does.” He went on to suffer an embarrassing Q1 elimination at the following round in Australia and suffered the same fate last weekend in Monaco, where he started last after hitting the barrier at St Devote in the first stage of qualifying. Perez endured a bruising race in Monte Carlo and finished 16th after being lapped twice by Verstappen, who … [Read more...] about Sergio Perez renews F1 2023 approach amid rising Max Verstappen points gap
Ferrari “pushing like hell” to address F1 2023 form
Last year's runner-up to Red Bull has now slipped behind Aston Martin and Mercedes to fourth in the constructors' championship ahead of this weekend's Spanish Grand Prix. Unlike rivals who chose to bring major upgrade packages anyway to the unrepresentative Monaco lap following the cancellation of the Emilia Romagna GP, Ferrari instead opted to hold off its bodywork upgrades scheduled for Imola until the coming Barcelona event. But by not delaying, Aston Martin's Fernando Alonso was a representative second in Monaco while the revised Alpine ran to third in the hands of Esteban Ocon . Meanwhile, the Mercedes drivers were content with the performance of upgrades as they ran to a 4-5 finish. Ferrari's top finisher in the principality was home hero Charles Leclerc , who recorded sixth as a legacy of a five-place grid penalty for blocking Lando Norris in qualifying. Speaking to select media, including Motorsport.com, Vasseur said it "would be a mistake to compare … [Read more...] about Ferrari “pushing like hell” to address F1 2023 form
