Schumacher forever#1

The start of the race sounded so quiet on tv. The camera was behind T1 and there was barely any noise at all! One thing that I miss the most is the revving up at the start, it reminds me: this means business!

This thread is turning into 'who cheated the most'? They both took the gherkin, yet both fans feel hard done by. Can you provide pictures/footage of when Alonso took the gherkin? If you have skyF1, you could look for a replay and watch the after match discussion, where both were interviewed and the...

He doesn't say that he received warnings during the fight with Vettel, although he did cross the line a few times most likely. What do you expect! 27 laps on the same tyre, I believe, and he occasionally goes a few inches wide. It's a part of racing, extracting the most out of every corner, some co...

My apologies, I thought this is a discussion forum. Apparently it's a "I say this because that's how I feel it and I don't see the need to back up my opinion with facts". How is my opinion not backed up with facts? I highlighted the fact in my previous post, the one you're reacting to. I'll repeat ...

Realistically, if it wasnt for the fresher tyres, Red Bull top speed (with DRS as well) could have been the same or even slower than Ferrari's... which in turn tells me that, Ferrari should have been about 20kmph faster than Red Bull in equal terms (both with or both without DRS and both with the s...

I am starting to think letting the radio comms be part of the broadcast can go against the spectable. Today's 13 lap fight was spectacular and reminiscent of other times in F1 where close racing was more likely. Yet the constant whining ruined it a little for me. Had I not heard it I would have bee...

Hey guys/girls, my dad was fairly disappointed that he forgot both the Goodwood FoS and British grand prix was on this weekend, so we're thinking of going to the German Grand Prix the following weekend :) I'm just wondering, since I'm English speaking, would it be a bit confusing with the track comm...

Good point. Looks like it will be a while for drivers like Alonso and Kimi to be challenging for a win. I like the racing as long as there is competition between Lewis and Nico, but I don't think it's fair for some of the drivers.

Schumacher forever#1

Yeah, Ferrari's upgrades seemed to work here at Silverstone, although maybe it's just that the circuit suited them.

Bottas. Alonso was entertaining but failing to enter his grid spot (for which he got off too lightly IMO) and all the whining made it an easy choice to go with Valtteri. What penalty would you have given then and why I thought he'd get a drive through, it was such an obvious offence. It was not as ...

Is the Marussia that much worse than the Sauber at the moment? They seem to be impressing every weekend at the moment. Qualified 12th and 13th yesterday. I think that Marussia have slightly the better drivers (yupp, Guttierrez is that bad!). I still think that Marrussia have the worser car, althoug...

Very close between Bottas and Alonso for me but Bottas gets it by a whisker. Aggressively carved his way through the field at the beginning and was never under threat once he got into second place. Great drive. Alonso also hauled that Ferrari up past where it belongs in a commanding display, with s...

Schumacher forever#1

Alonso wasn't that impressive. He got himself a silly penalty and failed to pass Button in a much faster car. You pretend as though Button drives with an engine equivalent in straight line speed to Alonso's. :lol: Hmmm Alonso was catching Button up on all the straights and loosing time on the bends...

Oh my god. I can't find my predictions anywhere. After doing it out, and not finding it, probably forgot to click submit, I did it again mid week, and I can't find that either!!! I think I did really well too

Schumacher forever#1

Right, so it's one all in terms of this so called 'luck'. Happy Lewis fans? :lol: Actually it's still 2-1 Hamilton. Did you miss Toto's interview where he said Canada was complete bad luck for Lewis and he wasn't to blame at all? Or maybe today gearbox was a fault of Nicos? After all they were able...

Schumacher forever#1

Vettel was already well into the DRS zone, he didn't gain anything by running off the track. Also Alonso exceeded track limits a lot as well. If one gets penalized the other should too. The problem was that Vettel exceeded track limits on the exit of the last corner. This caused him to catch up to ...

I haven't seen an on-board of the slight Hamilton/Vettel crash so was just going from seeing it live, I was just trying to balance out the argument! I hope (and think) it will just be classed as a racing incident :) It wasn't even under the investigation. They come in close wheel-to-wheel situation...

This could end up being the shortest race in F1 history. They seem to be having problems getting the Armco barrier off, and if they can't repair it then they can't continue with the race. I doubt it would take 2 hours and a quarter to fix, although I do agree with you that the four hour rule is not...

Wow, god I hope you are joking. If not, watch a different sport.

He's just looking for attention.

Yeah, there's nothing more I love doing than karting, but I rarely get the chance to. And it's so dear! I think that F1 is missing a group that should be targetted more: the youth. I'm 16 myself, and out of 150 people in my year, only 2 others watch Formula 1, and they don't even watch it that inten...

Good point about Rosberg. I didn't look at it that way. Whilst you would think merc will be quick again next year there will be other teams closer to them so more rivals for the championship. Whereas this year he just has to beat Hamilton. Do you believe alonso is keeping his cool because he's had ...

Schumacher forever#1

I suppose it's too different types of frustrating. An uncompetitive car would make you frustrated with the team, while having a competitive car and not converting it to race wins makes a driver frustrated with himself.looking at this season : Seb is very frustrated sometimes, while Alonso is keeping...

Yep, looks like I won't get a high score yet again! At least I didn't put the Williams in high positions

What about the speed traps in practice ? Who's fast in a straight line here ? That might affect how well Hamilton, Williams and Ferrari can make progress. It's Williams as usual I heard Crofty say. I'd presume the usual suspects would be there: Force India, maybe Mclaren and Mercedes. Hamilton need...

Does Guttierez have a 10 place grid penalty?

Would love to see a on board of Rosbergs lap. They'll most likely do it in the build up on SkySportsF1. Best qualifying session I've ever seen? Craziest! But I probably preferred Monaco 2012 :] Unhappy that Nico could extend his lead, but I still want him to win the WDC. I'm wondering how well Alon...

I think we have more important issues in the world than the fact that, over hundreds of years, the men work, and the women cook, clean and look after their kids. I was looking at a review of Grid Autosport, and one person was complaining that they didn't have female avatars in the game. I mean, you ...

Only if it was to go to Merc or RBR. Nowhere else is as likely to give him wins. After next year, when he will have a comparison between Ferrari and Mclaren, then it may be worth considering. But is 2016 too little too late? He'll be 34/35 that year and has probably began his decay of pace now. I d...

What? He's saying that he wouldn't want to be beaten by Susie Wolff. He wouldn't want to be beaten by Hulkenburg, or Bianchi, or Vettel either.

I love this season. Firstly, I wanted Alonso to win. Then I'm backing Lewis to regain the points lost. Then, come Bahrain, I'm shouting for Rosberg. After Canada, I'm supporting Lewis. Basically, I want this to be a very interesting WDC. Would prefer if Rosberg won it, but I think Lewis deserves it ...

F1 isn't the only motorsport that he's interested in. He's went to rallying before, so I don't see why he wouldn't want to drive in the Le Mans series, motorcross, or whatever. He'll be 35 (I think) in 2016, and, if he doesn't retain a place in Ferrari for that year, why would he go to a different a...
