Just curious to see how people rate the GP, which I am thinking of doing through the season, to see trends and whatnot, along with the usual driver of the day polls that people put up.

I get the feeling any option over 3/5 wont be used much.

What have Renault done? They seemed to be the most up for this new engine regulations, and they seem to not even be standing still, but going backwards. Baffles me.

jammin78

Just seen post race interview with him, first one I've seen this year personally. Christ he makes me feel old, and I'm not even 30! He couldn't even have a pint to celebrate his record breaking points finish (assuming he does indeed do it)

jammin78

I thought he already pass Vettel in the start but he was outbraked and Vettel moved his car before he got the inside line which meant Kimi was a sitting target for others to crash into. Right, and that's what is being called... racing. Remember, racing is what people want, unless it disadvantages t...

I wonder if these people are still as lenient towards booing: http://forum.planet-f1.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=10890 Different circumstances. In my view if a competitor has done something questionable that day then the fans have a right to voice their disapproval. Booing the winner just because they'...

People are so negative around here. "oh, I've bruised my leg, this leg is beyond repair, I must amputate." Yes there are areas of the show that need addressing (not the number of helmet changes though, c'mon FIA!) but to call the sport a joke is a bit much. The sport addresses its issues every coup...

Sauber 3rd in the championship, Monisha should take a screen shot of that and frame it as her biggest accomplishment as the resigns.

jammin78

Well what is a sport if not to put on a show? I tend to think of sport as a form of entertainment, otherwise I wouldn't watch it. I don't use the word show to compare it to a soap opera.

jammin78

Nasr, Hamilton and Sainz. Given all the Verstappen hype, it was nice to see Sainz demand screen time in quali and the race, putting some moves out there.

Nasr was the man of the day, Hamilton entertained me by putting in a fastest lap anytime Rosberg started to gain.

Regarding the lack of cars, I think it was more a freak set of circumstances than serious issues for the sport. Bottas' non participation is unfortunate, I his back had given up before Saturday, you'd have Wolff or Lynn in the car. KMag's engine did what Hondas do best - disappoint. Kvyat's car deci...

I predict this thread wont last long enough to track an entire season's worth of anything

jammin78

I like how excited Lewis is by Arnie!

jammin78

They should have left it as it was in 2008,if it aint broke dont fix it but then they bring in Kers that only the bigger teams could afford to develop and run then drs and now the lawnmower turbos that send me to sleep which is a small positive I suppose. Watch Mansell and Senna at Monaco 1992,that...

I disagree, I think double points still makes a huge difference. The points difference as it stands is 17 in Lewis's favour. In Abu Dhabi, if normal points, Lewis would win the WDC no matter what if he finished 6th - 8 points would put him 25 points clear, and even if Rosberg won, he would win the ...

jammin78

Button. Was faster than his team mate and made no errors. Hamilton was faster than teammate but made a significant error Rosberg was slower than teammate in the race, but made no errors. Only Button really stood out for me, maybe Vettel and Hulkenberg, though I was hoping Hulk would have finished hi...

Surely Grosjean must be getting drive of the day? Unfairly penalised for a racing incident (I'd probably even label the blame on Sutil's side if pushed) and still finished ahead of his team mate. Incredible, put the car where it deserved to be, against all the odds.

jammin78

I dont know why we dont just drop the charade and admit that we all try and vote for our favourite driver after every race regardless of the outcome. The fun part is spending the next 3 days trying to justify it in here lol. I can't admit to this, I voted Button, and I'm a Hamilton supporter. Butto...

I'm actually hoping for a Vettel-Alonso partnership at Ferrari. I would love to see that line up, as Kimi - as good as he is - has just under performed this year to the same degree as Massa did. If Ferrari want the WCC, I dare say Vettel-Alonso might be a better choice than Vettel-Kimi. But that's j...

Is anyone else finding this thread more intense and thrilling than the race?

jammin78

The first sector is pretty good, I really enjoyed the first couple of laps and the action throughout around Turns 1-4, but I think the combination of poor TV direction and overly-conservative tyres dulled it a bit too much. Let's see how next year goes.

jammin78

Didn't young Max Verstappen say his driving style was like Alonso's? Maybe Nando sees that as a threat and is going there to size him up

jammin78

Hopefully he'll step up more than he did today... wasn't a good showing today at all.

jammin78

I don't think Massa has ever been the most confident at overtaking, I think he lacks that instinct somewhat, though his defending is usually top notch. Today his lack of overtaking prowess was on full show I think.

jammin78

Not the greatest of races, but thoroughly enjoyed the opening laps. Turn 3 produced some great shots and overtakes. I think the tyres were the problem, not the track. Had to laugh though at "Presenting the winner's trophy, Vladamir Putin! And also presenting the constructor's trophy, Vladamir Putin!...

jammin78

The only person to make a big mistake was Rosberg, so although he drove a stellar race and proved he can come back through the field, he also put himself at the back of the field. Hamilton, Bottas, Button, they barely put a foot wrong all day, so if pushed, I'll say Button, he's the only one who can...

jammin78

I agree with lamo and zoue. The team and staff are in all likelihood feeling this incident far more than any of us will, and will be devastated, but at the same time, it's a business, and one they're not succeeding at currently. They have obligations to meet, and in the end there's a lot of retireme...

jammin78

Rossi is likely, he was all but ready to go in Spa instead of Chilton. Marussia will probably bring Rossi with them, it's not like they have to worry about him scoring bucket loads of points for the WCC. More than anything though, I hope they bring with them good news about Jules to Russia. That's t...

jammin78

Quick Nick, Sam Bird, Prost and... probably young Alguesuari

jammin78

May or mat not be interesting... and incredibly unlikely, but if Ricciardo won every race from here on out, and the results for every race was: Ric 1st, Ham 2nd, Ros 3rd Then the championship standings would end up like this: 1st - Rosberg - 343 points 2nd - Hamilton - 342 points 3rd - Ricciardo - 3...

jammin78

If that's too aggressive, then both Vettel and Alonso should be banned for the rest of the season for their driving later in the race. Nothing wrong with Hamilton's overtake, he took the initiative because Vettel had a poor start, didn't put his car anywhere particularly dangerous, and gave plenty o...

jammin78

Vettel, Hamilton, Grosjean and Bottas for me. All four had great races. Hamilton was quite panicky over the radio, but he got the information he needed, and held off the apparently faster Rosberg. Watching the two trade sector times was very entertaining. What happened to Grosjean's speed later in t...

I'm off to the WEC tomorrow... really haven't paid any attention to what's going on, my girlfriend is actually more keen to go, just because of Webbo!

But I like the current F1... I don't want to boycott it...

Awwww, I was hoping the Frijns one wouldn't be april fools... it looks brilliant!

When it rains, it pours.

I wonder if Massa's agent/manager asks for Number 2 driver controversies to be a part of contracts, they do seem to follow him.
