i wish we could see refuelling again. now most drivers know to a big extent what the other s will do in terms of strategies. plus all cars start with the heavy fuel, and limited tires, resulting that drivers conserve their equipment rather than race. IMO the current formula needs major adjusments :(

hk77

Does anyone know why drs wasn't enabled today except after lap 7 or something?

We could have probably seen some early overtakes ......

hk77

maybe his own pit crew

on 2nd thoughts, maybe that is how he has been helping Raikkonen to be in contention of the WC. well if he keeps taking out contenders like Alonso in spa, & who knows who else in the final races; maybe Kimi could be champion again You saying he took aim at the wrong red bull? in a way, that s what ...

hk77

It seems that he keeps spoiling races for wc contenders. obviously those contenders have millions of fans. if all these fans should have a say if F1. Then the like of grosjean should only be limited to testing, and NOT jeopordizing the lives of other drivers. i wonder what is going to take for the F...

i fail to see how he can be labelled as a failure. in his 1st career he recorded wins in every season, except with with Jordan(obviously). Its clear that the Mercedes team are the failure. they do produce good engines, but that is about it. infact if MS was subject to any kind of negative critisism,...

hk77

i agree that it is a mistake for hamilton to leave mclaren for merc.
more & above he wont have the support that he had at mclaren nor the competitive machinery.
unless he wins a wc in the next 3 years, he would probably have zero motivation left and probably retire early.

hk77

no way, at least for the sake of the ill critisism that he will be getting, let alone getting used to the new machinery.

hk77

as a huge MS fan, i must say that even if he goes to ferrari, he would be #2 to alonso, which would be very harsh to accept. Going to Sauber would be a mistake because they never were a top team and dont think in 2013 they will be a top team. more & above MS came back to win or at least have hope fo...

10 place grid penalty too harsh, isn't it? Could have happened to anybody.. I would have left it as a racing incident. I don't know why he got a 10 place for this one and a 5 place for the one on Senna in Spain. They were both equally terminal for both drivers but the punishment is double the sever...

hk77

i think its a 5/10 venue in terms of racing. maybe the race ought to be held earlier on during the season.
it looks nice though on tv.

hk77

i think the engines have become extremly reliable, but on the other hand some of the young drivers are compensating that reliability of the old days with their inexperience and aggression.
obviously the repercussions are reflected in the overall standings of the championship.

hk77

schumi, kimi, or alonso.

hk77

imo, i never rated rosberg as a top class driver. so this comparison to me is insignificant. The 43 year old clearly out classed rosberg this season, bearing in mind that he retired around 7 times, most of which were technical problems. Rosberg on the other hand has only proven to be an average driv...

hk77

Very sad to see the combination of brawn and schumi deteriorate like that.

The problem is that every year it starts better and ends up worse.

There should be a rule or something for those young and immature athletes , to not express their opinions to the media untill they show maturity. Otherwise they will eventually ruin themselves on the long run. Maybe Mod should create a rule that immature poster can't post on this forum, unless they...

hk77

I think it's a great concept, but IMO it needs to be more simplified and not as harsh.
Bear in mind that the points system will put driver or teams in deficit s at some point, and several teams are struggling to stay In f1

hk77

Schumi. Obviously ,
I think vettel and Hamilton are equal in second.

hk77

The probability for a 2nd formation lap, always exists. So for a driver to have been the reason to do that deliberately Is totally blown out of proportion, especially without being in contention of the championship. He never did it deliberately, was just a simple mistake. I'm sure. Just trying to c...

IMO it was one of the most boring races of the season. Almost like a test session.
I hope it rains there next year .
Looked like most drivers didn't want to take any risks.
Mercedes were a total failure.

as an MS fan, i feel tremendously dissapointed by the mercedes team. how can they constantly keep going backwards, i mean the last 2 seasons they stopped developing their current cars, so as to focus on the following season. I wonder what excuses they will come up with next ?? 3 frustrating seasons ...

hk77

Alonso drove an excellent race.
Some people just don't appreciate a good drive.
The battle for 2nd & 3rd was interesting as well.

Qualifying was better though.

hk77

Schumi was constantly asked to lift to save fuel.
So would he have overtaken Perez, or are Mercedes still not able to provide him with proper car ?

only if alonso has to sit out for a season or two.

obviously i preferred the old layout, i remember barichello had his best race there. however the new layout is more friendly for the fans, more and above with the current formula, drs, 2.4 v8's it wouldn't be very entertaining. i remember DC recorded something around 360+ kph's. today they would pro...

hk77

personally, i think he should stay atleast 1 more year.

hopefully, his team will give him a reliable car for the rest of the season, and i wouldnt be surprised if he gets on the top step of the podium.

hk77

Maybe a system, where drivers would get yellow carded like football, then eventually the equivalent of a red card would mean, that they would get to miss the following official. I'd like to see them punish only the constructors rather than the drivers for the first two unlawful gearbox changes. I do...

hk77

Every time he had a DNF this year, somebody else lucked in and moved up a spot. That's the nature of F1, other people benefit from your failures, and you benefit from theirs. It doesnt take anything from his podium. Merc/Schumi got everything right while others made mistakes or had failures. :thumb...

Obviously red bull are looking to make more enemies.

Just seems harsh that ms would be stripped of his result, because webber is winning.

It had a bit of everything, the safety car obviously contributed to the excitement.
There was serious racing between many of the top drivers, plus a dream podium.
Ideal result for me, hopefully ms can carry some good luck out of this result.
