Seems to me like McLaren called Hamilton's bluff. Wasn't much of a bluff if you actually do it. This deal was obviously done in Italian GP, Ron Dennis new it and seemed really miffed about it, McLaren have seemed to be on the back foot with it since then, Perez and his team hadn't talked to McLaren...

Confirmed by Autosport. Also that Perez takes his seat at McLaren.

Wait, what? Angry Birds is sponsoring Kimi? I thought they were only sponsoring Heikki.

I found the Boullier Q&A very good. Nice words about Kimi indeed

Sorry to intervene, this is my opinion, off the top of my head (interesting question BTW): Sutil, Bottas, Barrichello... and of course Sato!

Covalent

Yup, cheers. This being a mod feedback only -thread came as news to me so had to go check.

Thanks.

Alonso seems to be doing ok!

^Amazing how close Fernando and Kimi are!

Wow, it's starting to look like a proper racing circuit! Can't wait for this race.

Probably the most impressive driver over the year was James Calado, coming in and performing as he did in his rookie year. Razia and Valsecchi obviously both had good years, but they've been in the series for four and five seasons respectively now. It wouldn't surprise me if neither can get a race ...

I don't know... They had just driven behind the SC for a number of laps and didn't get to use the KERS at all. I think the cars have a button to manually empty the KERS for reasons explained above, maybe Michael didn't use it?

Covalent

Alonso has just interpreted his buddy Hamilton’s recent demeanor as the hottest trend in F1. It’s what the cool guys do.

Covalent

Mika Salo was commentating the race and speculated that it might have been KERS that was too full and pushed the car under braking. But I don't think the penalty would've been that harsh had that been the case.

After Webber's penalty I think 134, my best score for some time.

I don't understand all the hype about Bottas Yup. I want him to do well but he's getting overhyped considering he hasn't started a race yet in F1. There are drivers with better pre-F1 credentials who have failed miserably in F1. But to answer the OP: If he does dominate Maldonado, especially if thr...

So that's why he insisted on taking Nico's number!

I remember being relieved that Kimi took the seat at Lotus instead of Williams, but now I'm not that sure anymore. How come Williams can keep up with the big boys in the development race while Lotus - with a budjet that should be similar to Williams' - can't?

Unique how?

Only F1 driver with the name Luigi Fagioli.

(Sorry, never heard of the guy).

Covalent

We only saw him in the Brialonso environment so it's hard to tell how he could've fared in another team, probably much much better. As someone pointed out, he was the only one to stand between Lewis and his title in GP2.

Covalent

Whenever I see yellow flags my immediate reaction is that Kimi has crashed or his car has failed. His Macca years have left deep scars it seems.

Perez is not going to Ferrari in the near future. He either stays where he is now or partners Button at McLaren. Source? Source for what? Not driving for Ferrari? - how many times more Montezemolo has to say Perez is "too inexperienced", twice is not enough? Staying at Sauber - that's no brainer. G...

It's a matter of opinion if it's been great or not, so I don't understand the need for some people to jam their opinion down the throats of others with differing opinions.

Covalent

I think the characteristics of the Lotus is somewhat the source for Kimi's problems in quali. Combined with his driving style you get poor quali but good race pace. McLaren admitted that their car is the other way around.

Anyone getting the Borderlands 2? I'm really excited about that one since I love the first game. I'll get my hands on it as soon my mate and I have completed co-op in the first game. You basically mirror my thoughts exactly! I'm even still doing it as the current co-op game of choice with my mate. ...

Inconsistent, or sensitive to car setup?

Meh... I like easily recognizable helmets, now I'll just be confused is it Lewis or Jenson!

There were some news (yesterday?) about Heikki's management talking to Sauber, so could it be Perez-->Ferrari, Heikki-->Sauber, Jaime-->Caterham?

I've never used a prepaid but I'm under the impression they only work within Finland. Could be wrong of course.

Wonder if Flavio is attending the Singapore race...

I'm probably going to upset a few but I believe it says more about the car than Kimi's ability, I think Kimi has done a ok job but not a great one. In my eyes that car should have already won at least 1 race and should be right up there in the championship if not leading. I never rated Grosjean tha...

It would still be if it wasn't for Kimi Actually the opposite. I reckon Lotus would have won at least 1 race if it wasnt for Kimi or Romain. If Alonso and Hammy were in those seats, they would've won 1 each minimum I say! Kimi and Romain has been a detriment to the success of Lotus in the overall W...
