It's all the about the money.

There just needs to a rule for Q3 requiring all the drivers left in Q3 have to run a fast timed lap. Though the overall quali format is quite awful.

F1Thomas

Actually he is not driving to prove he can drive for McLaren next season as he's already secured the seat, 2013 he will be driving to prove that. He has nothing to prove to McLaren now till next season, all he has to do is stop making rookie error's which is nothing to do with the announcement of mo...

He will be playing second fiddle to Button. Im sure people thought that about Button when he moved to Mclaren, look how that one turned out. I dont think it will be as clear cut as you think, we will have to see how it pans out next year. It's clear what will happen considering the circumstances, B...

War never stops, a world war is different.

Ex F1 driver expresses his opinion and says nothing wrong but yet again no respect and gets openly bashed, very nice.

F1Thomas

Good riddance, a team that's a disgrace to F1.

F1Thomas

On this forum it seems so many Button fans hate Hamilton (Way the posts go)

If your British you should support both and be happy we got two fine fast drivers at the sharp end of the grid, no need to complicate stuff, keep it simple.

I've driven round Jacarepagua in real life in a V8 and the track is really amazing, not just to drive (Very flowing and fast) but it also produces amazing racing, lots of overtaking chances, I like it as much as Interlagos, but if it deserves to replace it is another matter. The facilities would hav...

Only reported by us westerners as it's close to F1, happens all the time, that's life.

F1Thomas

Ruined the whole aspect and part of that complex. If you run a bit wide its game over or at least some hefty damage or lost positions, now you run wide and you get away with it, scott free.

Another part of a track completely ruined.

confirms what I thought about Grosjean being painfully slow in Abu Dhabi. What's happened to his pace? There must've been some kind of problem on the car, it's practically a second a lap! Either him being cautious and Kimi going ballistic just emphasized the difference, or Grosjean had some kind of...

Ruined it, yet again, well done F1.

What's he supposed to say. I hope he goes and wins 3 WDCs and WCCs. I'm sure his bosses would love their team principle saying they he hopes another team beats them. Could you imagine Horner coming out and saying "Well yeah I hope Seb goes to Ferrari and beats us" ? Odd no one has picked up onthis ...

F1Thomas

It's funny how he says it just as Hamilton was set for winning the last race, this is a nice way to try destroy ones confidence into the next race, he's suppose to support and back drivers to get the best possible results for the team while they are on the team, regardless if they are leaving or not.

What a clever man

Yup, he seems to be messing McLaren up quite badly as manager, very poor job from him so far and that looks set to continue.

F1Thomas

More aggressive... As in forcing the drivers to make more pitstops at gunpoint? Tyre wear is good, unpredictability bad. I like the tyres and tyre management to be an important part of a Grand Prix, but not a dominant part. ^^These Pirelli want to be centre-stage and the most important thing in F1....

That kind of war has always gone on, nothing new, wont effect F1. Though of course kidnapping has always been a possibility.

There is a few more CT scan images knocking about.

F1Thomas

Yes much more.

None of them.

F1Thomas

Nobody knows if its the correct call or not yet.

F1Thomas

On his day he can match and beat the best, but has always lacked the consistency and the ability to pull the results out when it matters, that a champion has.

Good driver, but no champion driver.

F1Thomas

i realize he is quick,but dont most top teams imply same phylosophy as RB?....i mean he has already burned the RB bridge...Ferrari are very much similar...which leaves Maca,but he couldnt be more wrong about them either....,me thinks this lad is awfully confused and he dont know right from wrong So...

F1Thomas

He's talking the truth and he knows how things work far better than any of us, of course some can't accept it but it's the reality of how allot of young drivers are treated on the program (One of my friends was treated similarly - Juncadella) Frijns so far seems like a deadly fast racer with great r...

F1Thomas

The FIA are highly inconsistent and strange (Corrupt) when it comes to punishing cheating, 1994/1995 springs to mind where the team should of been DQ from both driver's and constructors but nothing.

F1Thomas

So Marko talks to the truth and he get's trolled again

F1Thomas

You can't blame the rules, overtaking or anything, it's all down to each driver. The simple fact is most are to aggressive, don't respect each other (Or at least respect racing room and cleanness) and this causes the incidents. You can see guys like, Hamilton, Alonso, Kimi and Button all in battles ...

F1Thomas

The poll will be corrupt because the reality is most here are a fan of a team or driver, not of the sport overall, but will vote fan of F1.

F1Thomas

Hamilton acknowledging he had a dominant car, at least we know he isnt a hypocrite for saying the RBR had been dominant So all those comments about Vettel driving a "Newey" were what? I would never have had thought of using "hypocrite", but i guess he was mistaken. Hopefully next time he could be m...

F1Thomas

The RedBull has been dominate, the last races before this one, just at Adu the McLaren found it's pace to match/beat them again. Though of course we don't know if Vettel could of won if he not had the issue in qualifying, or Webber actually got a decent start, so it's questionable if RedBull had the...

Lets be honest though, ever since his announcement to Merc every race he's had mechanical issue's with the car, cons or not, at least before it was not every race (Before the announcement) while Button is all good, and gets closer to overtaking Hamilton in the standings. If he happens to have a issu...

Webber has been bad on starts throughout his career. He had some pitiful starts with Jaguar and Williams when he got those cars up the sharp end of the grid.

It's just a known flaw in his driving and usually is nothing but himself.
