I think thats what makes him so good in the change-up, is his cautious approach to changing drivability.
Sensativity, smoothness

Button is brain, Lewis is heart. As someone mentioned above, thats pretty much the difference. Both rule their respective drivers, quite literally, to a fault. I'm not a Ham fan.... At all. But I will admit that the kid just doesnt care what the car is doing, he just charges right through it. Button...

On a nationality basis, di Resta would be a british press dream team. Managed by Button, solid, if not spectacular. Hulk would be my absolute choice. Know merc engines, is capable of brilliant qualy and has head on his shoulders enough to learn from button. My heart yearns for Koby to have a top dri...

This might just be his last shot to win in his f1 career. By doing so, he would upset Ham and But if they arent already scrapping it out. And if vettel challenges his third place, then he may try to help Alo.
If it were me, id go for the win

Hope that worked. Seems the Ganassi team has been doing it for years. Wouldnt put it past f1 teams with twice the money of a nascar team

For my two cents, they both have good racing heads and have developed their respective crafts well. No bonehead moves, no rogro or crashtor manuevers. For me hulk takes it. I dont see PDR throwing it all on the line, seriously hanging it out there, like hulk in 2010. PDR seems to have a chip on his ...

So is this more hammy getting frazzled by button again?
Why do i have the feeling button will beat him in the championship?
Consider pot stirred

rillist

^^^ pretty straight forward to me This is harsh, considering what chrashtor gets away with. Rogro doesnt intend to wreck, hes just kinda ignorant to where his and others cars are. Maldonado purposely runs into people and gets away... Well, short of ten place penalty. Too harsh, 5-10 place penalty wo...

Let them have their fun, its kind of pointless, sure, but I'll bet the current drivers are happier than a pig in poop to talk to these guys, plus the fans on the track get a little extra too.

I agree with O P to a point. Macca have been pretty inconsistant. Do I think he should leave? No. Get an extension of two years and see how the new engine regs play out, then think about it.

Kimi, testis the size of water mellon, hulk, good bloody save from that tank slapper, then beautifully gets past shumi

Love it, love it, love it However, a few things about this conme to mind. Batteries are going to be more than half the weight of the car, battle 1. Safety standards for drivers and mechanics?

They're using hard and medium compounds, which seems to play into Alonso's hands, the Ferrari looks good in wet/cold conditions so I would expect a strong run for him. Maybe not pole, but definitely up there. If its cold, the lotus are porked. However kimi is the king of spa so don't count him out M...

Shumi used his car, blatantly as a weapon to impede his rivals. And Alonso is fair and everyone knows it. Senna did the same and he's still seen as a saint and a martyr. They've all done ruthless things to gain championships, however, Alonso hasn't tried to hurt anyone. That's really the only differ...

My two cents, if your nephew is young, he's probably going to break a lot of stuff, getting a psvita or similar handheld wouldn't last very long. For me personally, I have a ps3(250$), a middle road Logitech wheel(160$), a small stand and frame assembly (150$) and f1 2011(60$) For my average to abov...

They built their own for the 12C, turbo 8 I believe. They have the tech and resources, it would be the logical "Dennis" approach if merc bailed. Could you imagine a McLaren-Ferrari? I know they used Peugeot and Renault engines in the past, but for a long time, they were the unofficial merc factory s...

The "Sauber RS Audi" has a nice ring to it. Seriously though, IF vw buys in, ol Pete won't have a big name brand again. He saved the team after dr Mario went off, in my humble opinion, it wouldn't be a majority stake, just proper backing like he's always wanted. If they buy in, I would expect it und...

It really deflates his image doesn't it?

To add two cents, I think all customer teams are given equal machinery. Perez chasing down Alonso, both redbull and lotus having similar engine failures etc, plus they are regulated by fia, otherwise redbull wouldn't have been caught. I agree though, that the scheme to go to turbos in this financial...

It can only been Clark surely. Even the likes of Senna and Schumacher would struggle to match him on pure driving tallent. He won in so many different classes of racing. Double F1 WDC, three times in the top 2 of the Indy 500 including 1 win, third in the Le Mans 24 hours. Graham Hill won two WDC, ...

I think it's pretty normal for smaller teams or underperforming teams to abandon the development to their car mid season. Even Ferrari have done it in 2009 Lotus also just admitted that they decided to continue developing their car for this year. Usually by this time "they can't wait to shift to th...

Ferrari have always had a number 1 and 2. Usually with the premise of the number 1 retiring or moving on, and the number 2 taking over later. Ei, shumi, Fil. Jody Gilles, etc. Fernando's gettin into his thirties, maybe only a few really fast years left. Getting someone they can mould and someone cap...

Love the question marks, but the final 8 should be Vergne: the sideswipe Ricciardo: gets random 'redbullness' and goes faster somehow Kovi: able to put out his own engine fires Petrov: magical flying ability, but loses steering in process Pic: ....

Sigh, I wish Chevys performance car dominance would trickle down to the lesser cars. Cobalt ss and corvette pwn te nordshielfe. Their racing programs are second to none. I don't understand this move.

Jeff Gordon and Jpm did this when Juan was with Williams BMW, and they dubbed it 'trading paint' on speed in north America. 3 years later, guess who's in NASCAR making 100g a race?

There are much more politically correct ways of speaking ones mind.

Couple things with this, first off, I was under the assumption that redbull cars went down to 4 cylinders during launch and slow corners to help put power down more efficiently. 2, like someone said above, I thought the Renault engines had to have a modicum of off throttle blowing as it was designed...

In north America, JV is usually a go to guy for NASCAR when they go to the road courses (yes sometimes they turn right, they do the glen, circuit gille villenueve, Infineon etc) he is usually top ten with a few top fives as well.

For me it would have to be someone who knows what fast is and someone who knows what being comfortable at speed feels like.
