Re: Who was / is the biggest spolied brat driver in F1?

As much as i loved him, Senna was a spoilt brat. I actually think there's a comparison to be made between him and Vettel - both fast drivers, hungry for victory at any cost- although Ayrton's racecraft was much better IMO You'd probably be saying this of Vettel, too, if he gets killed while racing....

Re: Newey and Seb's conversation

Seb seemed peeved about something tho - saying it was 'obvious'...and Adrian calmly saying well it wasnt so obvious... I thought they were talking about tyre wear - that Seb thought his tyres were good enough for racing and adrian said that wasn't obvious from the pit wall - I could be way out though

Re: Should Vettel be sat out for a race by Red Bull?

Err no. He's been a very naughty boy today, but there's no sense in making him miss a race. What he did today was wrong and I really feel for Mark, however being realistic, Mark is never going to be WDC. RBR know that Vettel is their best chance of retaining both championships so they won't sacrific...

Children in Need is such a good cause, my work was one of the sites taking donation calls. I did it for a couple of hours and was amazed by the generosity of everyone who phoned up to donate. It's definitely restored my faith in humanity somewhat.

Re: Who's the better talent Robert Kubica or Pastor Maldonad

Whilst I think Kubica is a little overrated, and Maldonado has the raw speed, I think Kubica is a more complete 'package' than Maldonado - at least at the moment. Pastor needs to calm down and he could potentially be a WDC - this weekend eg he was brilliant, but he lacks consistency.

Re: 90 minutes to go. Incident in first lap or not?

I think RoGro's race ban was a bit if a shock to the system and a warning to all drivers of the consequences of 'over optimistic manoeuvres (sp?)' - I hope Maldonado isn't stupid enough to go for a barely there gap. I hope it's a clean start all round actually, giving us a chance to watch all the ch...
