  1. Hi Alex,

    In the near future the league pages will have the articles broken up into different categories, i.e. editorials, news, features, interviews, etc.

    This should further spotlight a piece such as Michael's.

    In addition: I should note that the "Beyond the Bleachers" section of the network (which you can find on the site footer) is the designated spot for interviews with athletes, etc.

    Thanks as always Alex,
    Zander

  2. Hey Alex,

    Just wanted to speak up regarding Michael's article not reaching the front page...

    As a site administrator I have access to all of the star ratings given by users. In investigating the incident with the Lewis Hamilton interview, I noticed that THE ONLY Formula One writer to give Michael's interview a star rating was Ben Auty.

    Bleacher Report is an expansive network and articles are not "chosen" by any editorial staff to make the front pages of the site. Articles get to the front page when the stories are written in a timely fashion and are compelling enough to receive high star ratings from other users.

    Next time around, when you see a piece you really like, MAKE SURE to give it a star rating! And please, encourage all of the other members of the F1 Community to do the same...

    I'm trying to send this message home because I believe it is the primary reason why certain articles in this section are having trouble floating up and down the site. Unlike other sections, the F1 writers don't seem to have taken to assigning star ratings for some reason, which makes it impossible for the formulas to distinguish one piece from the next via any qualitative means.

    Hope that makes sense—let me know if you have questions. And remember: GIVE EVERY ARTICLE YOU READ A STAR RATING, especially the good ones.

  3. I'll tell you one thing, those tickets sell out quickly, so get your hands on them before it's too late!

    The advert is pretty cool, I saw it since I was watching the race online...

  4. i am going to push for it to make the front page again, ridiculous, probabaly the biggest interview this site has had and it comes to virtually nothing.

  5. Will do ... Let me deal with this Ash guy moaning about boring F1 and I am on it, ha ha !

  6. Thanks mate !

  7. Oh well ... That is maybe where you and me differ somewhat matey ... I would love to be picked up by a big company and flown round the world expenses paid to report on the sport I love ... HEAVEN !

  8. yeah had one connection, good thing i did this year, he cant get me anymore now. gonna have to apply for press accredation myself from now on. whenever i go to a race, i'll be reporting from there. i so want to go to fuji.

    thanks for the dit, realised that as i did the radio bit for adam.

    took me forever to get to the media room man. i had to sprint down the pit lane, madness.

    i do start off well, then i wane a bit in the middle. gotta learn a bit more yet mate.

  9. Woo ... 4 articles in 4 days ... I am on fire Al ... Somebody stop me ! Ha ha ha ! Howay man, where u hiding ?

  10. Euro 2008 ... Thats old news Al ... Lets have your thoughts on F1, the love of your life ... Its exciting times ... Just look at my last couple of articles and Michaels ... Things are shakin baby ! ... I cant get enough of it right now ! Bring the NOISE ! ... I wanna see more input man, you always spark a good debate in my articles when we bounce opinions off each other ... I am missing the fight ! Ha ha ! Hope ur enjoying work man ?

  11. You forgotten how to write comments ? Hang on a minute, you forgotten how to log in ? ... ALEX, WHERE ARE YOU, I have articles that need your opinion voicing !

  12. Hey Alex,

    Tweaked your article a wee bit hoping that it would appear in the Front Page, no luck, I dunno why.

    Thought that if we keep it close to Bleacher Style it will pick it up, no luck.

    Hope it is fine by you. If you find my edits are bad, please hide the revision and revert to the previous revision.

    Thanks,
    Sarah

  13. Hey Alex,

    What is with those top writer slots? Something is wrong with the site, you suddenly disappeared and some NFL guy suddenly popped up.

    Man, I dont get it.

    Thanks,
    Sarah

  14. hey alex, just released my list of all time best f1 drivers. check it out.

    cheers.

  15. Hey Alex,
    I've been on and off because of an exam coming up, but I have to say, you've been writing some good articles. I wish I could go a little more in-depth rather than skimming, but I just want to commend you on some good work :)
