With regards to the team aspect of being an F1 driver, Schu has always said the right thing, the difference since his comeback is that it seems a lot more genuine, more sincere. If the pre-forced retirememt Schui had been more like the post forced retirememt one, he would have been a lot more popul...

Had it for years and I can honestly say, it's excellent. Hardly ever a problem, when there was a rovlem it was resolved quickly and easily and the speed was good and consistent. Just moved house and had to switch providers. Having more far more problems with buffering and so on on streamed video pla...

OP: I hope you realize that 90% of respondents will merely vote for their favorite driver. Everyone thinks their favorite driver is the best so that kinda makes sense No they don't actually. I did a Poll on the 'old' forum and I think around 30% of people said they thought their favourite driver wa...

It continued that Mercedes story of last year - in the mix for the first 2/3rds of the race, then just never seem to be at the sharp end when it counts. Obviously it's only one race, but they really need to start getting good results consistently. Enough 'promise' and 'potential' - time to deliver....

Fascinating interview with the Director here. Well worth a read and makes you consider the film very differently.

On the B&B thing I actually sympathise with the B&B owners. Not because I share their belief (I don't), but they have chosen to run a private business, not a public funded service. That, in my eyes, give them them the exclusive right to make their own decisions about who can use that business. As fa...

The Matador (2005) Pierce Brosnan, Greg Kinnear Assassin on the verge of a breakdown meets regular guy and they bond. Suprisingly good, and the shock for me was Pierce Brosnan who I've never seen do anything of note, but he was great in this. He has some great lines - check out the quotes page on I...

Here is the deal... I can only drive autos I need it road legal as will need to drive car to track (will get mother or other half to drive my general car for back up to get home).

Spend what cash you have learning to drive a real car! Seriously, driving an auto fast is only experiencing a faction of the joy you should be getting.

For me the only one lacking any question marks is Alonso. He has nothing left to prove and deserves at least one more WDC. Raikkonen - no doubting his speed but those Ferrari years where he didn't look any better than Massa tarnished my opinion of him a little. Speed is unquestionalble but the compl...

DOLOMITE

Annoys me that Alonso isn't given credit for his speed. Just because he often wins races through smarts and racecraft doesn't mean he's not quick. He is - very . As for Raikkonen in that period - a joy to watch. I don't know what happened at Ferrari but I do recall the McLaren years where he drove t...

If only they also released a bloopers clip... They are out there, I've seen them. Some of the stuff he does is pretty amazing, but it gnereally takes a lot of attempts and a lot of setting up. He doesn't just turn up, do the business and go home. Great to watch when he nails it though. I kind of kn...

DOLOMITE

Since Michael Scumacher retired in 2006, imo Alonso has been the best driver overall. Because he drove off-pace cars for 2008,2009,2010,2011 and 2012 (!), he has not got the publicity that goes with multi-winners. Consequently he is not rated as highly as his great driving should be. If he had move...

Kimi and Alonso have different driving styles... Incredulously enough, they'd seem about equal on pace, with Kimi may be a little ahead. Kimi's problems have been more down to media and his seemingly "can't bother to give a chocolate fudge cake" attitude. I say seemingly, as media DID perceive that...

1) It seems the swear filter is no longer applied. Is that by design?

it's the ability to combine a number of skills in order to get good results. This is opposed to having outright speed over a lap. Jean Alesi for example, had speed in buckets, but his racecraft bucket was a little empty. Schumacher had both which meant he was nigh on unbeatable as his competitors fo...

I'm disappointed with you, Dolomite! And on three counts: First, you of all people should know that statistics are used to win arguments, not demonstrate facts!

Sutil had 90 races in F1 - that's not exactly a missed opportunity. He was a little unlucky in that it was during a time when there was little chnage in drives with top teams, but if he was on anyones radar he could have progressed. I thought we'd see him at Williams to be honest. He did look pretty...

An explorer is being led deep into the jungle by a local tribesman. In the distance they can hear the jungle drums. As they walk, the drums get louder and the explorer starts to worry.

I think Driven is a great film. Enjoy watching it more than once too.
