whats wrong is that this isnt racing, when Vettel is told not to race and the cars are driving to a timetable rather than racing its a bit crap really, the tires are abysmal and the cause of this, I still like F1 but the racing element is gone and I mourn its demise.

AtrumVesica

why bother there are plenty of streams on the net that are free anyway, I get F1 free with HD , if it cost extra I would be watching the streams.

You know , I am just tired of Jenson, when he was with Lewis then the car didnt have any grip, now hes with Sergio the car doesnt have any grip, just grow a set and man up Jenson as I am tired of you whingeing

AtrumVesica

Its not that they are failing its how thats upsetting pirrelli

AtrumVesica

Listen you may all laugh but Paulo Di Canio is on to something for sure

AtrumVesica

Everyone was going on about Merc being too top heavy, too many chiefs, don't you think it might just be a perfect set up for a team focused on 2 cars?

AtrumVesica

Every road car behaves differently on certain tyres, I have had cars that ran great on pirrelli but crap on avon/bridgestone, my current car is using pirrelli p zero but I find cheap falkens give as much dry grip but a bit worse in the wet, of course I would use pirrelli and am but I pick a tyre on ...

Vettel did not mention the several times in the past that Webber has obeyed team orders not to challenge Vettel, even when he felt he was faster and was himself a title contender - as for example in Canada, Japan and Brazil in 2010. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/formula1/22106490 nuff said Vettel is...

Interesting interview to say the least, must be great in the team meetings now

AtrumVesica

I think pirrelli have got it totally wrong, they couldn't of gone further off course if they had been asked, the remit was to make tyres that did not last the whole race and had a limited life in the race and degraded, for me that is a tyre that lets the cars race full out for a minimum of 10 laps t...

AtrumVesica

This thing is going to run and run , only thing to say is do you think webber will ever let seb past, the way he is today I think he would put seb into the grass then let him past.

AtrumVesica

I think that you lot are totally missing the point, last year the tyres punished cars that were not as capable with the loss of traction producing excessive tyre wear and breakdown, this year the tyres are punishing cars that are the most capable by having good traction and downforce causing shearin...

Webbers tyres looked the best of the top 3, might be a clincher

AtrumVesica

Can they complete q2 and 3 tommorow

AtrumVesica

ah well at least we can sit here in the knowledge that if that music dont change I am gonna need a new tv

the other thing is back..lol

Yay its back

the music is a bit ...................pants, unless it shows natalie doing a pole dance , then the music is fine

@armchair expert: This topic has NOTHING to do with just Button or Perez. It talks about Mclaren as a team. No need to spew hate towards anyone. Then again I guess your Username pretty much sums up your views Unfortunately it does have some impact on the development of the McLaren, I dont hate butt...

Things to think about: Tyres may be faster but using drs is now limited, cancel each other out Rosberg doing single lap quali runs not 5 lap runs like Lewis did Mercedes need to understand the soft tyres a hell of a lot more than other teams because they wern't in a position to use them last year F...

BBC for a F1 fan isnt up to scratch, thank you sky.

AtrumVesica

the problem with it is getting it to switch on at the right time as each track is different with different speeds

AtrumVesica

I think McLaren might be a bit of a dog again, but they could be hiding their speed , dont think so as they have reverted to flat barge boards again to get a idea of whats going on underneath the car.

AtrumVesica

Hamilton seems to be realistic saying that one lap pace is easy, its the race distance speed they need to work on.

AtrumVesica

Sky keep saying that Hamiltons first fast lap was on mediums the 1.20.8 , if so I am more impressed with that than the 1.20.5, if the medium time is true then that is a threatening tie in to the consistency that it showed as well.

AtrumVesica

Thats fecked it for Ferrari

AtrumVesica

Lets not change this into a anti hamilton thread again just keep it to the testing please

5 laps of fuel at least min so with a adjusted lap we are talking a 1.20 flat

The only thing that was stopping merc was tyre deg, and from what button has said they look to have a hand on that, lets hope to see that they have a fast car, looking on the times tho there were only 2 faster times set recently, one was brawn and we know why that was and the other was red bull with...

I think Mike Elliots move from Lotus to Mercedes might be paying off

andrewbensonf1 Just to rub it in further, @LewisHamilton does a 1:20.610, just off fastest time. That's three laps all at least 1.5secs faster than rest I presume Mercedes have attached their new aero parts and are most likely running low fuel levels hence the 1.5 sec time difference between Hamilt...

AtrumVesica

If this was last year and Hamilton did a lap like that isnt it a 7% rule for quali, if so anyone who couldnt do a 1.25 wouldnt of made it to the race?, have I got that wrong, if so caterham and marrussia might have problems
