Re: Can Vettel win the championship?

I also called it a biased BS. How do you possibly ever win on merit in a car that is not the fastest car? Well, apparently so depending on the driver's name. In the case of 'Alonso' it is the great performance and him "outperforming" the car. And in the case of 'Vettel' it is "the opponent f***ed u...

Re: Dan Ric-Phenom or One Hit Wonder?

Vergne was no where near ricciardo. If you state this you weren't really paying attention to their battle. Ricciardo during his time with Vergne was clearly better. I would call Vergne a good F1 driver, absolutely. Again, to claim that Ricciardo was anything but slightly better than JEV is demonstr...

Re: FIA issues new fuel-flow clampdown to F1 teams

All teams were advised of this in testing and then later told the fuel system had to be fixed before china.

Other teams fans enjoy making up crap about Ferrari cheating.

Re: Ricciardo not ready to commit to new RB deal

Luckily it might seem Ricciardo would have no issues going to a team with an established top-tier driver. He did it in 2014 (though let's be fair and say he didn't have a choice - he could try Red Bull or stay at STR.. no brainer). Coming off going to RBR and besting the big man in his own shoes wo...

Foxtel buy the HD feed off Sky Sports and then downgrade the quality. I feel sorry for those people who dont pay the extra for HD as the quality difference is disgusting. They downgrade it worse then normal 576i tv.

Re: Lotus switching to Mercedes from 2015

as well as being the best, Mercedes engines are said to be the cheapest, hopefully cheap enough so they can boot Maldonado out. I believe that the Ferrari engine is the cheapest (around 16M), the Merc is 18-20M and the Renault engine is the most expensive (24M). That is over a season right? Not per...

If you download a program called bluestacks you can run google aps on your PC.
