The 1960s Which F1 decade are you? Congratulations! To you, F1 is still a throwback to a beautiful, bygone age, when cars were light, slim, under-powered, and driven by drivers with as much artistry as skill. That’s great and all, but don’t you long for fat-tyred monsters or screaming V12s? Share your result Tweet

The 1970s Which F1 decade are you? Ah, the 1970s – has there ever been a more evocative era in grand prix history? In your mind, F1 is full of lank-haired playboys and fat, boxy cars that have never been anywhere near a windtunnel. It’s a great time, but it’s all a bit stereotypical, innit? Think it’s time to finally stash those Cuban heels… Share your result Tweet

The 1980s Which F1 decade are you? Forget EastEnders, for you it’s all about Dynasty, shoulder pads, Filofaxes and brick-like mobile phones. The 1980s saw F1 at its most powerful and most opulent – which is kinda appropriate, really. But, a bit like a themed ’80s night, it’s okay in small doses, but shouldn’t become a way of life.

The 1990s Which F1 decade are you? Forget turbo-chargers! What you really want in your life is a hugely expensive V10 or V12 – ideally, something that does about 30 laps in practice before it exceeds its mileage limit. A great decade, pity there were only about three drivers that you could ultimately rely on to win races – didn’t that make it a bit, well… predictable? Share your result Tweet

The 2000s Which F1 decade are you? Wow, you’re complex! It’s not F1 for you unless you understand tyre-graining, how to manage the undercut, and how to strategise for an unexpected Safety Car period. You probably have a laptop running your own bespoke strategy algorithms to guide you through your Sunday afternoon, too. Just don’t forget to enjoy it – there’s a race on! Share your result Tweet
