Thought we could amalgamate all the f1 discussion into one thread, and for the first post; http://www.formula1....009/4/9113.html

fknlol, mclaren loses their third place to toyota after it was found they lied to the stewards

[orangeLJ]

I wonder what was said in the radio dialogue that brought them unstuck?

Atleast it shows they dont favour the big boys over anyone else.

[trdee]

radio dialogue told hamilton to let trulli pass. when the FIA asked them they said there had been no instruction to let him pass. So they got pwned for lying

[trdee]

farken 'ell what a race aye. the rain really mixed it up. and ferrari; WHAT WERE THEY THINKING!!!

[GIVE WAY]

Not a bad race, but a pity they didn't get full points for it, would have been another nice haul by Toyota. Ferrari haven't got their tactics right since Brawn and Todt left, not surprising to see them fucking it up again, just surprising that they fucked it so bad.

[trdee]

yeah, was interesting to see how everyone made different gambles with drastic results!! what about timo! he got it spot on and pwned everyone from 8th to (eventually) 3rd

[trdee]

well gawd dayum webber's finally having some luck, toyota failed epically though..

[blue]

Yeah, it's great to see Webber not only finishing, but scoring points and podiums. He's always been getting better results than his teammate, so this years gonna be tough.

I don't think Hibachi will complain when the year that his team-mate is finally out-scoring him, he's also 4th in the driver's championship.

Of big interest is going to be this weekend, as Monaco has traditionally been the circuit where Beefmaster performs his best.

lol beefmaster??

Depending on my mood, I refer to Webber either as various brands of barbeques, or carburretors. In this instance, it was BBQs.

[BONKRS]

Ahh finally we see some driving skill in these races and not just a teams budget flexing the wins

[trdee]

the funny thing is though, that honda and toyota have put in RIDICULOUS amounts of money into f1.... and where did it get them?

Honda turned out to be extremely successful, all it took was to do all the hard work and then give up like pansies and sell the team to someone who with extremely limited funds and time has created a team which currently dominates the season.

[Blue_stivo]

Actually Rubens and Jenson say that the biggest difference this year is the divability of the engine...

so all 'Honda' needed to be successful was to can their own engine and buy one from Mercedes... so much for VTEC Yo!

but they pulled out cos theyve been in f1 for nearly what 5 years?? and were going backwards not forwards


till this year, bet some of those bosses are doing the hara-kiri now (or whatever it's called)

[Blue_stivo]

if they still had the Honda powerplant they would not be doing as well as they are now... though this is purely speculation.

I wouldn't doubt that for a second. However they still have a relatively good chassis to match the engine, so remove the Merc donk and drop a VtecYo powerplant in and they'd probably still be running mid-field, which is a lot better than the last few seasons.

[Blue_stivo]

yeah, I'd place them around the Williams with the Honda engine, again speculatively.

[Blue_stivo]

well, it's official. FOTA have given Max and Bernie the finger and are forming their own series.

wooooooooooooo hoooooooooo

Very interesting.

[trdee]

indeeds, hopefully we can get a good governing body for once, that doesnt chop and change all the rules every season

[King Keto]

What are people's thoughts on Schumi coming back after Massa's accident? Personally I think it's good as long as it's not to the detriment to Kimi.


Oh and AWESOME JOB WEBBER ON THE WIN.

[sxtool]

I think its great...

See if the old shu still has what it takes.

In other news..i just bought two - 3 day passes to the Italian GP in Monza...fuk yes

[King Keto]

It will be interesting to see how quick he is. He is tapping on 40 yrs but mentally IMO he has always been a step or two ahead of the field.

And i'm not jealous, i'm not jealous, um...........Damn You
