Re: Drivers want you to think they have the worst car ever
My point in all this is that drivers in general want to build their reputations and it is funny sometimes how they do it... Everyone seems to be running to the aid of their favorite driver and that was not the point

Re: Drivers want you to think they have the worst car ever
I saw Massa doing great in that car at years end so it could not have been that bad. Massa was super fast in Austin and Brazil. In fact I think Massa could have had a fight for the win in Austin if not for 5 griddermikeyg123 wrote:And I assume you know much better?mccormickja wrote:Inappropriate post removed.

Drivers want you to think they have the worst car ever
I had to chuckle when I saw Hamilton was quick to say that Alonso and Vettel are wrong, and that he will not win any races this year. He wants everyone to know his car is horrible. Therefore, I can only assume if he wins a race or two his legend grows. Alonso said a lot of similar things last year. ...

Re: The Official Kimi Räikkonen thread
I would like to see a lot more laps for Lotus in testing... I like the speed, but they seem to spend a lot of time in the pits. Usually it Kimi as he likes things changed a lot on the car, but none the less.

Mark Webber may be on the verge of quitting F1 and will probably join Porsche when it returns to Endurance racing in the LMP 1 Class in 2014.
