You underestimate the mentality of some people on this forum.

What he should have done was let Raikkonen past then re-over take him in the first corner, that would have been fine........ Oh wait..

cmberry20

The only thing I would change is the stupid tyre rules. Give everyone two sets of non-marked quali types for Q1, Q2 & Q3. Then come race day let the driver fit whatever compound tyre they want at the start - hard, soft, supersoft, whatever - hell if you're Toro Rosso fit Full Wets! This way we would...

Vettel confirmed for Ferrari seat in 2021!

cmberry20

Boooo! Boooo! Boooo! ........ wait, what??

cmberry20

Obviously Marcus Ericssons fault.

cmberry20

I dunno, it rewards the brave & punishes mistakes. I'm not saying its the magic bullet, but most modern tracks have these great big run offs that dont discourage the driver to slow down because they know nothing happens if they run wide (put two tyres on the artifical grass)

cmberry20

Actually, I've got a simple solution to fixing alot of tracks - no run offs. Just a curb and then gravel. This stops the cars from running wide, no more 'unfair track limits - he gained an advantage etc' and it seperates the boys from the men, certain drivers can push to the very limit and make it s...

I don't think it would be 'allowed' to happen, especially in the latter half of the year if Vettal or Raikkonen (ha) are fighting the Mercs for either championship. Remember, the main reason why Brawn didn't pick Ferrari engines in 2009 was that there would be a stipulation in the contract saying th...

Remember guys, the race starts 10 minutes later than usual because Liberty Media knows exactly what fans want!

It was a Greek Subscription.

With testing being so restricted nowadays & teams only allowed 8 full days prior to Aus, will FIA add in an extra day next week?

Apparently, tomorrows weather isnt looking to good either, so that could be another lost day of testing?

cmberry20

You are also forgetting that only Ferrari had access to the latest Bridgestone tyres which gave them at least 0.5 seconds advantage over other Bridgestone teams. Ferrari also forbid any other team that uses a Ferrari engine to beat (win) the official team. A position that is unique only to Ferrari. ...

At least Palmer will have a drinking buddy next year.

cmberry20

Its a bit petty, but can everyone stop calling the fluid that was coming out of Vettels car 'Oil'.

Its coolant.

Oil is not bright fluorescent green!!

Well, thats means the cars wont start racing for another 20 minutes after that - we are dealling with Charlie you know!!

cmberry20

Its actually quite simple really. By selling all the advertising space to Marlboro (Phillip Morris) Ferrari don’t have to worry about finding sponsors - they already have the money. So, if sponsors pull out, change or don’t pay, Ferrari doesn’t care because its Phillip Morris responsibility. Its Phi...

cmberry20

ooh, i've got a load of unpopular opinions..... The pitstop speed limit punish the driver too much so they don't gamble on an extra stop for fresh tyres. While i dont agree in getting rid of it, i do think it should be no less than 70 mph. Safety is being pushed far too much. F1 is supposed to have ...

cmberry20

Well I think Ferrari have an advantage in all the remaining races as they have a number 2 driver that isnt allowed to overtake/race his teammate for a win when said teammate has an obvious problem.

cmberry20

Still curious about the penalty. Can you get a penalty for driving too slow on the track if you aren't swerving all over the place?

cmberry20

So out of curiosity, if you drive 5 to 10 seconds slower per lap around Monaco holding up everyone else this is deemed OK? {see 2013}

cmberry20

Want to seperate the hard racers from the wannabes
Want to see who can push the car to the very limits?

....

Take away the stupid run offs & return them to gravel traps that punish drivers!

End of discussion, end of thread. Next!!

cmberry20

It wont work, how will Vettel gesticulate at all the back markers he passes.

cmberry20

^ Wonder how all the haters are going to react to that!

Judging by the images alone it looks like the Ferrari's ruined Verstappens race (by causing a collision) & not the other way around.

cmberry20

Take Schumacher out of the equation, replace him an average driver & keep the same Ferrari performance then Barrichello would be 2 x WDC in 2002 & 2004 & possibly in with a very good shout in 2001. Heck, take Jenson out of the equation & he could have been 2009 champion.

The point Massa's confidence crumbled was Germany 2010, it broke him. He had to lie for the team, move over, become the No.2 and realise that it was Alonso that was favourite and he basically never have a chance at another WDC.

cmberry20

I think the voting is broken, nearly 150 votes cast and not one for Alonso. That must be a record!

cmberry20

The ability to say 'for sure' as many times as possible in one sentence.

cmberry20

Alonso could mow down a group of nuns and someone would still vote for him as driver of the day.

Is it? I thought the rulle was all the track.

Kimi shouldnt be through.

If that happened, last season McLaren would have had more minus points than Mercs had positve points!

Marcus Ericsson out of qualli which was pretty obvious after that crash. Still being checked out at hospital, nothing major just a few bruises.

Why is it that we have had almost 10 or more pages of 'Hamilton should have been penalised for missing the chicane' yet no one (well i havent seen it) has mentioned that Massa did the EXACT same thing on lap 18 when Vettel was all of the back of him. Doing what he did is fine as it was a one off & C...

The new qualifying system is rubbish, the fans know this, the team owners know this, everyone knows this & the drivers know this (but don’t express this much in case they get in trouble). Commentators in a lot of sports (ie Football) will say how particular boring a match or game can be & is not a d...
