Because they levelled the playing field at the start and once more the RBR/Vettel combination has proved that when they get into their stride they are unassailable, if they win this year they will deserve it without a doubt. I will be very unhappy and pouty for a few hours afterwards...but that is a...

Last year Lewis was off form... In 2010 and 2012 he has been as good as he has ever been, especially in 2012. Lewis Hamilton has looked down at heel as of late and has been a bit of a numpty off the track but quite frankly I do not see it in his driving. He is a driver who desperately wants another ...

H-Holloway

While it pains me I guess I cannot really fault him...if he wins it he and Red Bull will deserve it immensely.

Still will be hoping for alternator failures every race though

H-Holloway

The first lap was awesome, Hamilton vs. Button vs. Alonso from turns 1 to 5(?)

But then it really was a bit of a bore..

Some very nice racing in the midfield though especially from the Williams drivers.

Or Lewis had some time in the pocket for Q3.

Button Q2- 1:25.467 Q3- 1:25.659
Hamilton Q2- 1:25.816 Q3- 1:25.544

A mix of both. Now RBR have mastered the DDRS their already very stable car is now a very good quali car as as we all know, in quali you can activate the wing anywhere on the circuit. However I do think both Mark and Seb are qualifying masters in their own right, Webber was sticking Jaguars, Minardi...

Assumed that the parts are slower and that he still has them on the car, try again.

Just out of interest, does anyone think Mclaren have a chance next year? I dont (I am a mclaren fan). Unless there car is ALOT better than everyone elses how can Jenson have a chance when he is so slow in qualy? Jenson is great in the race but he is not good enough to keep qualifing off the front r...

As much as it pains me, only three and one of them is an absolute outside bet.

I think it is Seb, Fred and Kimi.

The article states that Anthony declares Jenson the winner over the three seasons !! I don't think Rosberg's fans will be as insecure as Jenson's as I said earlier I believe Rosberg will hold his own he appears to be a straightforward confident racer and I'm sure his father has given him that confi...

I did some snooping and I knew I recognised that render from somewhere! It actually originated on this very forum and was done by 'RaikkonenWDC' in the old photoshop thread. Luckily though someone saved them and you can find them here. http://dragonsf1.blog.com/2011/07/16/modern-car-old-graphics/ ht...

This would make me happy

I know its technically the Marlboro livery but I think it invokes the right connections

I have personally never seen the appeal of ritualistically purchasing assorted team merchandise every year, normally there is not much change in the design anyway, especially from McLaren who have had the same Rocket Red cap with the Vodafone logo on it for years now! Saying that I bought a Jenson ...

H-Holloway

surely this thread should be called 'Will all the Hamilton fans on here be getting Merc gear?' I won't be, I don't support Merc, Lewis, Brawn or Nico so why would be getting Merc gear now? And why would anyone who didn't already have Merc gear suddenly buy it now? Simple, because they are Lewis fan...

talking on another thread, i came to a realization. Kimi Räikkönen. I know he has a WDC, but considering he was considered "the next big thing", he has been really unlucky. in his McLaren years, the car was as unreliable as a 20 year old Alfa Romeo, and once he moved to Ferrari the Scuderia seemed ...

I did the dumb thing and voted thinking it was based on this years driver line ups...so I voted for McLaren, I think the Hamilton/Button combo is the best pairing on the grid by quite a margin. For me Lewis is better than Seb and Mark, while Jenson is as good as Seb and better than Mark. But anyway ...

You could categorise drivers with untapped potential in several different ways. I felt Kubica's body of work was hugely overrated, but he had some incredible standout moments (2008) and I have no doubt he had the potential to win many races. I strongly doubt he had the potential to be as good as Ve...

So many drivers come and go from F1 one but only very few get podiums, even fewer get race wins and even fewer still can call themselves champion. Whatever reason it may be, luck, attitude, tragedy, personal problems, some drivers have their immense reserve of unquestionable talent left untapped, so...

Di Resta may have one last chance of a 'big' seat for 2014. Webber, Vettel, Rosberg all out of contract. I disagree, if he stays on the Radar and keeps delivering for FI or whatever mid-field team he ends up in, could he possibly be a contender for big team seats again when Button and Alonso retire...

Former F1 champion Sir Jackie Stewart does not believe Sebastian Vettel can yet be called one of the greats, even if he wins a third straight title. The Red Bull driver won his fourth race of 2012 in Korea last weekend to take the lead in the drivers' standings. But Stewart told BBC Sport: " If you...

I really like the circuit and that undulating back straight in particular plus I am excited for nearly every race even when I am pretty sure I can pick the the winner. (Dam you Seb...and your talent)

I thought they were only interested in being an engine supplier?

An engine supplier still has some weight in a team.

of course it is plain to see that since 2010 and the dynamic of the team has swung in JB's favour but the detailed reasons behind this will probably never be known, but even if they are released I doubt that in real life its going to be some kind of psychological coup of the team by Button or some ...
