Eddie Irvine F1 Q&A

Eddie Irvine F1 Q&A

Put your questions to former F1 star Eddie Irvine during every round of the 2008 FIA F1 World Championship.

Eddie will endeavour to answer as many of the best selected questions after every race.

  1. Question

    Nanette from Essex:

    Sep 24, 20:10

    Hi Eddie,
    Firstly just want to say you are still looking as gorgeous as ever!
    I just wondered if you have considered being a pundit if the BBC offered you a job when F1 returns next year? I certainly think they need someone who is not afraid to tell it how it is, and with you onboard the licence fee would be worth paying!
    Best wishes, Nanette x

    Answer

    Eddie Irvine:

    Not really Nanette because I couldn't fdeal with all the travelling any more. I wouldn't want to give up 20 weekends of my career travelling the world. I did that when I was racing and did it because I loved racing. I don't like talking about racing as much as I like doing it!

  2. Question

    Sandrine from Maastricht:

    Sep 22, 23:51

    Hi Eddie,
    First congratulations for your comments. Good to see you still speak your mind!
    Just one question about Timo Glock. I've seen some amazing overtakings from him this year but he didn't seem to be rewarded that much in terms of points. D'you think there's room for improvement or is is he loosing his time at Toyota? X

    Answer

    Eddie Irvine:

    I don't think Timo has done a particularly good job. He has definitely got better and had a couple of good races but he's not in my top ten F1 drivers, put it that way.

    Eddie, with all the coverage of races, do you travel to the all the races or catch some on the tube?

    Answer

    Eddie Irvine:

    I went to Monaco and Monza but watch all the rest on TV so I can comment on them!

  5. Question

    aviva & jen from uk:

    Sep 12, 14:21

    hey sexy eddie! we heard you'd sold your house in dalkey (the one hidden way up in the trees!) do you still have a place down there and are you still involved in your bars in dublin? xx

    Answer

    Eddie Irvine:

    Yes I did sell the house. I was made an offer I couldn't refuse. And I haven't been to Dublin in about a year now. I had two houses there but didn't need two! I probably dont actually need one!

  6. Question

    Kev from Leicester:

    Sep 11, 20:11

    How can the stewards state that Hamilton was in the wrong when Hamilton avoided an accident, gave Kimi his place back and then beat him fair and square !. Should Kimi not get a penalty for nearly causing an accident ? Is it possible to comment to the stewards?

    Answer

    Eddie Irvine:

    I do think Kimi closed the door and forced Lewis to run wide. I agree with you, Hamilton gave him his place back and made a great pass into the next hairpin. It was perfectly legal.

  7. Question

    paul trotter from poole dorset:

    Sep 10, 22:57

    could the teams ask for a vote of no confidence in the stewards

    Answer

    Eddie Irvine:

    No because the teams would need to get together and they'll never get together because everyone has their own interests, Ferrari want the most money etc. They never seem to want to get together and stand up for the common good.

  8. Question

    louis from london:

    Sep 9, 21:04

    has bernie ecclestone got anything to do with the stewards decision? or max mosely?

    Answer

    Eddie Irvine:

    Let's just say that the FIA have the power to overturn the stewards decisions. They changed the rules afterwards and, in doing so, have admitted they were wroong. It's ridiculous.
