Re: Driver(s) of the Day - Malaysian Grand Prix

Hamilton - faultless all weekend really (or as close to) Vettel - again didn't put a foot wrong really Alonso - the man is just brilliant Hulkenberg - same as Alonso. The fight between the two was class Kobayashi - almost forgot he was driving a Caterham I think! Makes me wonder if previous Caterham...

Re: Australian gp organisors say f1 was in breach of contra

And there was me thinking F1's main aspect was about racing, not just noise. If the sport was all about noise, just go get a spiced up engine in your garage and run it until your ears bleed. Personally I'd prefer to go to a race and not sit there thinking "holy f**k, my ears hurt". I'd rather enjoy ...

Re: What will happen first?

Option one would not be a first. Arguably, neither would option two. Given that the turbo-charged V6 is hardly unprecedented, the first likely first would surely have to be ten straight wins? Some other possible firsts: - First win for an Austrian team on home soil - First win by a German driver fo...

Re: I made the right call by not watching the Korean GP

The GP was genuinely exciting, with more action than the last 3 races combined. You missed a lot, and Vettel didn't get very far away.
