So far I'm quite liking the circuit. All very close at the front.

60% chance of rain tomorrow!

Gibbo · 10-24-2010, 02:34 AM

Why are they not racing.

dxb335d · 10-24-2010, 03:42 AM

Fucking load of bullshit. Poor Vettel.

Bahrain exhaust fails whilst leading. Australia brakes
fail whilst leading. Now engine whilst leading.

Kid should be miles in front.

I rather enjoyed it - in the end.

Having recorded it on the PVR, it was annoying that the cocktards at the BBC again switched channels during the coverage. Makes the fact that my (and most other) PVRs automatically changes the finish time rather pointless. Just wish the f**kers would put it on BBC2 from the start, if they care that much that Andrew "I've got a Nissan Figaro which I think makes me look like a cool hip journo when infact I look like a smug tw*t" Marr has to be on BBC1. Viewers, I'm sure, couldn't give a toss.

Still once it got going, it was quite exciting!

Sutil is a nutter, but good TV!

Fascinating to see so many tiny bits of Vettels engine grenading from his car.

Bit worrying that crylonso is 11pts ahead

Come on webber!

Steve A · 10-25-2010, 02:17 AM

It was a great way to start a sunday. I laughed so hard when Vettels engine blew up.

dxb335d · 10-25-2010, 08:18 AM

I had a giggle too Steve, not at that though!

Hamilton "Tracks good, I'm ready to go" beaming full of confidence only to get mullered
by Alonso and Vettel and passed by Rosberg. LOL.

From a spectators point of view it does present the fantastic (and rare) possibility of the world title all coming down to the last race, which I find so much better than a particular driver having the championship sewn up 3/4 of the way through the season.

My dream result at Brazil would be a Vettel win, Hamilton Second, Webber Third and Alonso in a DNF position, putting them on 231, 228, 235 and 231 points respectively.

With 4 drivers going to Abu Dhabi with just 7 points separating them it will make for one hell of a race, where a single overtaking manouvere could decide the world championship title, encouraging some proper racing.

I would love to see it go to Webber or Hamilton (I'd actually prefer Webber to win it over Lewis).

I don't particularly like Vettel (why is his team mate so much more magnanimous and gracious when winning?) and I really do not like Alonso, so of the four contenders it's Webber and Hamilton for me.

dxb335d · 10-25-2010, 11:34 AM

Motosport is not like football. Not nation vs nation, I follow drivers that I like, believe in their talent etc. Regardless of there nationality.
Considering i've followed most of them from there kartig days
I know all of there motorsport background!

Vettel is honest and a genuine lad.
Hamilton is the first to come up with excuses for his performance. Was
so up for starting the race. Fell away from
Alonso and Vett moaning his about his tyres which turned out to be fine!

Either way, it was a very good race. I am gutted for Vettel, bar a few
mistakes it's been his season. If he cannot win it I'd like Alonso to do it'

fair points carl, however for me it doesn't matter what sport it is i will always back the UK guys first, and always laugh at Germans when they fail.

I would like to see Webber win the title. I think he is the honest one in Red Bull. I cant deny Vettel can drive but if Hamilton and he had the same car the Hamilton would win. IMO of course.

dxb335d · 10-25-2010, 12:04 PM

I don't agree with that mate.

Let's not forget that it's not just about being in the same car! Button and hamilton have proved that. The car is designed around Hamilton. Hence the advantage Hamilton has over Button.

MEGA · 10-26-2010, 07:52 AM

I'm dissappointed that Button is out of it as he is a driver I've followed for many years.

So considering it's not a mathematical impossibility yet: I'm hoping for:

Button 1st
Hamilton 5th
Webber / Alonso / Vettel DNF

THAT would make for an interesting race imho

Teutonicdriver · 10-26-2010, 09:18 AM

I dont care who wins so long as its not Alonso. I cant stand the bloke.
In fact the last race would be all the better if his head were to fall off at some stage. (on second thoughts, let it stay on until after the final interviews, I love to see a spaniard crying (especially that one!)
