There was nothing great at Buttons drive. 6 saftey cars, he took out his 2 main competitors and profited from Vettels mistake and Schumachers worn tyres and had the fastest car in the field

Do you honestly believe that?

Nothing innocent about Honest Ron. I would never ever understand why before all hell broke lose, why didn't Dennis backed up Alonso as theri biggest chance for the WDC. Do they actually thought Lewis was gonna stand the pressure on his first year in F1=, he didn't. ....because they spent the rest o...

He may be the most exciting, but optimal? As in good for the team optimal? Optimal for each other I reckon, but probably not for the team. I think its damn near impossible to replicate the incentive that beating someone that will be considered an 'all time great' in the same machinery in one of the...

I have an incredibly sketchy memory of seeing a few minutes of Brazil 94 first, but the race I watched in full first was Adelaide 94. Probably the reason for my dislike of a certain German during his first career, yet like many ive warmed to him this time round. I'm starting to wonder whether this ...

...and as per my earlier post, id nominate Hamilton.

Flash2k11

I went with Alonso in the end, purely from the romantic view that when two of the best drivers of a generation are forced to go head to head in the same machinery, it propels them both to reach levels higher than either have previously reached and wouldnt have been able to do so without the threat o...

I dont think we will ever see the open warfare rivalries ever again, especially in the age of PR but in pure competition terms I think the Alonso/Hamilton one stands out for me. They both see each other as the main obstacle to their one true goal and they both have the ability to back themselves up ...

Don't bother with threads you don't like. they will wither and die. They don't though. They just become another battlefield for the my driver is better than your driver crowd. And that's the problem. Most are more concerned about arguing with others over the silliest of things than actually discuss...

Check your hosts file for any erroneous entries, if you dont know what that means, google will help you out. You could also try flushing your dns using ipconfig, google that too lol.

I suggested in the other topic that perhaps some form of super abrasive surface could be used, very grippy to slow the cars that are actually involved in accidents but also abrasive enough to chew tyres up to the point that there is no real advantage to be gained by constantly running wide onto it; ...

Mixed feelings about this. By the letter of the rule the stewards are right. Vettel did the same move last year against Button in Australia and he wasn't penalized so it serves him right. However, the same move was done by Hamilton and Alonso this year in Bahrain and none of them got penalized, esp...

Shhhh, dont let the facts get in the way of a good argument.

Flash2k11

Where was Vettel supposed to go? Button saw Vettel was off the track and still didn't give Vettel room to rejoin. If there was a giant wall marking the track boundaries, Button would've smashed Vettel into the wall. But we all know the FIA look for any reason to punish Vettel/Red Bull You dont have...

So Vettel was impeded two times this weekend, the first time cost him pole position and the second time cost him a place to Button (thanks to Buttons teammate of all people) but he should get a penalty ??? Button´s constant moaning about Vettel really really really irritates me now, the only good t...

Flash2k11

If the runoffs have to be tarmac, I dont see why they dont make it super abrasive or something so itll slow the cars down in the event of an accident but also chew the tyres to pieces to stop people using runoffs as an extension of the track.

Nice to see Xenophobia hasnt died on these forums too.

Its painful viewing cos he doesnt even sound convinced himself of what he is saying; dont really see what point he is trying to make about Hamilton, what was he meant to do, drive slower because Vettel was in front of him? Madness.

Flash2k11

Wow, Hill and Herbert giving Horner an absolute roasting on Sky right now, Horner crying about Hamilton unlapping himself too.

Almost as if people like to see the rules enforced eh?

The stories I've read suggest the torque is inconsistent with previous races, so it appears to be a change for Germany. I would wager that most teams run their cars illegally (to some degree) at some point in the year. There just seems to be a rabid obsession here against Red Bull, mainly because t...

Got in and out with no problems but we parked in Whittlesbury and walked the rest of the way, the state of some of the fields where cars are parked has to be seen to be believed, I cant imagine that nobody got stuck there today after the rain that wrecked Q2.

Really is a mudbath lol

Flash2k11

The car parks outside of the main ones at the front are still nothing more than muddy fields, and the weather has put paid to those. Im going to Quali tomorrow regardless of said advice but im already imagining just how bad its going to be.

Flash2k11

Gotta be flirting with bringing the sport into disrepute no? Marko I mean, Vettel's comment on its own is nothing to get worked up about.

Flash2k11

The Sky coverage really does get better by the race, I dont miss the BBC coverage at all anymore.

Flash2k11

Im really, really interested to see what the telemetry reveals about Maldonado coming back onto the track, that heli-cam view wasnt flattering for Maldonado at all.

Flash2k11

Maldonado is going to get the book thrown at him over that, and not before time to be honest. You cant just spear into the side of people while re-entering the track. Hamilton pushed him off... Equal fault. I bet "no action from stewards". Hamilton didnt push him off, he had the line, Maldonado dec...

Its a fairly long way to walk but I cant imagine the taxi drivers keeping the regular fare for that trip on the race weekend, so itll probably cost an arm and a leg. That said, surely there is some sort of 'park and ride' bus that operates from closer to Silverstone? If not then thats really, really...

You know its a really special opening post when people who you'd usually associate with other teams and particular other drivers come to defend Hamilton's good name.

Make of that what you will.

Flash2k11

Drivers may no longer move back onto the racing line having moved off it to defend a position . this are the new regulations for 2012, and Hamilton didn't have to move he didn't thought he could get past back by Vettel! The key phrase in bold. Hamilton wasn't defending his position. Yes he was, he ...

Flash2k11

[quote="Flash2k11]He wasnt defending anything though, Vettel was matching his moves to maintain the slipstream. It would be nothing short of a farce if he got penalised for that. He was defending, do you think hamilton would have moved twice like that down the straight if vettel was not behind him....

So as long as the winners keep alternating, Lewis can cruise to the championship by just finishing third? 8) Its looking like this will be the year that consistant points really pay off, especially if the winners of the races keep alternating between 4 or 5 people.

Bad times for Ferrari and somewhat worrying times for Red Bull.

Mercedes looks bloody quick, but Lotus and Red Bull have already announced their intention to protest the result of the Merc Qualifying, so this aint over by a long way.

Oh dear Alonso

Flash2k11

Massa is a lucky, lucky boy, had Raikonnen not messed that flying lap up he would have been out, what a blow for Ferrari that would have been.

Flash2k11

Not looking good for Ferrari, im just pleased at how properly close it looks like its going to be.

Nice to see the RB isnt a country mile ahead of everyone too.

Button is a properly solid, quick racing driver. Faster than most, more consistant than most, these qualities bring fans to him and fare him well on most sundays. Unfortunately, a lot of fans love a bit of drama/unpredictability, and in his team mate, you can find those qualities in droves. The unpr...
