Nice work!

I'm off to the German GP next month, and would love some insider info ;-) I presume you have privileged access to get such unhindered shots? What lens do you use? I'm wondering whether to stick with my Sigma 150-500, or to hire something else.

Great shots Dan.

Interesting to see different helmets for different weather conditions.

Re: Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada

Great shots, as Clin said really nice to see the different helmets, also interesting to see Nico has fewer tear offs than Esteban for the wet weather helmet.

Re: Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada

Nice.

A couple of thoughts. A polarising filter will enable you to see into the helmet. To get some sense of movement it's good to see wheels bouncing off the ground.

Excellent set. Well done. The shot of Nico is my favorite.

I mostly used a Sigma 500mm f4.5 on a Mark IV and a 70-200 f2.8 IS on a 7D
I did have an FIA F1 credential that allowed me almost anywhere

If if you can your hand on a prime 500 that would be nice, else You can surely get some great shots with the 150-500 as I think what's needed in F1 is reach.

Thank you for the advice.

Thank you all for your comments, that's great that you took the time to do so.

Re: Formula 1 Grand Prix du Canada

Thanks for the info Dan, I think I'll stick with the 150-500 then. Not much I can do about the FIA pass though ;-)
