Some classic ones from the commentator in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJ0Hq_WIRAQ My favourites are: "With Patrese's car going very slowly, like it wanted to do something... Yes, it wanted to burst into flames" "Piquet and Salazar go to karate class together and here was a chance to ...

Not sure if he was the originator and I can't remember who it was about but....

Alan Jones some years ago as a TV commentator:
"Only he and his dry-cleaner know how close he came to having a big crash"

Not trying to drag this out, but I still think Mark didn't pass because it was getting dangerous . If it had been true he was trying throughout the final few laps but couldn't pass, we would've at least seen a lot more attempts given Mark definitely wasn't having any trouble keeping up with Seb. It...

There were team-orders once Mark got close enough, but he thought he'd worked hard to get close and had enough pace to get by Seb. He ignored the team order and tried to pass (wrongly in my opinion, I don't agree with the concept of team orders, but if they're there you play by the rules) and it go...

You see a whole bunch of people here defending Seb's act as 'being a racer' or 'being a man' or something of the sort. You be the man by beating the other guy in a duel, not mugging him down a blind alley you led him into. I'd agree with Seb wanting to race, if he'd told the team 'I'm not backing o...

The main thing that everybody is missing is that Webber lead by 4 seconds, lead car gets preference to pit first. If Webber had pitted first he would have had a 7 second lead over Vettel. Red Bull / Mark let Vettel pit first to cover of the Mercedes drivers and secure the one-two. So he has taken t...

Vettel. He shouldn't apologize anyways, Webber should be happy about not getting a drive through penalty for pulling off a Hungary Schumi Barichello move. Oh my goodness. All cred lost after just 8 posts.. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: And drivers of the day for me was Button and Webber. Webber won...

People who should know better are trying to say that Vettel's action today is no worse than Silverstone '11. Webber was told to hold stationback in '11. In essence he did.

Vettel saying in the interview he doesnt care what anyone thinks except the team. What arrogance. Not really. Everyone can (and usually does) have an opinion, and it's often best to filter those out that don't matter. So Vettel doesn't care what anyone thinks but the team, and, he apologizes. His i...

Silverstone '11 keeps getting brought up. Did Webber pass Vettel in that race.........No Did Vettel pass Webber today...........Yes There's a fundamental difference between the two, and any comparison is weak and futile How is the comparison futile when Webber did actually try to make the pass?

Its not just Vettels fault,its the team who gave him the undercut and told Webber to turn his engine down and gave Vettel the opportunity to steal the win. Sad day for F1. I think Vettel deserves respect for being ruthless and denying team orders as the fact is Vettel's a faster driver. Would you s...

At the British GP in 2011 Webber was told to hold station in third behind Vettel in second and continued to challenge him right until the line. Whether he actually overtook or not is not the point: he was told to conserve the car to the finish and hold station and he didn't, resulting in both drive...

Funny how Marko seems to only be able to pay SV compliments while simultaneously denigrating (whether accurate or not) his team mate and main opposition. To be fair most team bosses have done the same over the course of the 2012 season in some form. That is true. Doesn't make it any more palatable ...

Interesting discussion. I think Webber was thoroughly shafted in favour of Vettel in 2010. Remember some of the stupid things Vettel did that year, including taking himself out and nearly Mark as well. The way the team reacted with sympathy when he got back to the pits demonstrated clearly where th...

So the question is, why can Switzerland have such a high gun ownership rate and a relatively low gun crime rate and the USA not? I'm fairly sure I read that ammo is kept at gun clubs and can only be used there. I also think there is a big difference between getting to keep a gun after you have serv...

My bad. I didn't read the article but assumed it was one I'd read a couple of days ago in which Marko does comment that they're looking at various options for 2014 and includes Hulkenberg in that. I have no idea where I read it, though, as I've been catching up on F1 news for the last couple of day...
