    Has anyone looked at the new Formula1.com site? It's terrible. The main menus seem to be at the bottom of the page and can only be seen via scrolling all the way down. They have put the driver standings on virtually every page. On mobile it's even worse, you have to scroll down to find info, fair enough, but then when you see a news article you scroll left to see other news articles.

    I know I don't like change but the site is now terrible. I could go on and on....... But hey only a few hrs till practice.

    What is your opinion of their new site?

    Works well on mobile, not seen it on a desktop browser though.

    I quit going to formula1.com when it was taken over by FOM and they ruined it all those years back.

    Just checked it out on my laptop and I really like it (other than a few broken links).

    Are you looking at it in an old version of IE or something?

    It's one of these new fangled paralax sites that rely on lots of scrolling. Why they can't just have a decent site in-frame where people can navigate to any part of the site for themselves.
    F1 site could be a massive portal of info, but it is really McLunky
