There will be a standard start, not behind safety car

I flipping hope thats true. Its not meant to be a walk in the park, and the RB's are just thinking about winning and getting more points.

Start delayed for 10 mins!

Okay, lets see... I hope that button/webber/hamilton/alonso/vettel, all crash off in the first corner, so that I don't have to hear all the random hate that people here have..

Massa/Rosberg/Kobybashi podium I reckon

(this post may or may not be serious, but I am sick of hearing about how certain people around here have no respect for certain drivers)

lol look who got out the wrong side of the bed

10 minute delay due to conditions.

Wussies.

You get paid millions to race... lets see who has the biggest balls.

knip · 24 Oct 2010 at 06:57

Grrrr! They get paid a crap load of money to take part in one of the most dangerous sports in the world, therefore they should expect sometimes for it to be dangerous! :mad:

Shame about the race being delayed.

Send the safety car round - lets at least see something moving.

(albeit, sideways.

Hmm normally would be loving these conditions but on this track this might be a total non starter, can see them starting and it getting red flagged in 5 mins.

knip · 24 Oct 2010 at 07:00

Haha, why are they bothering to dry the cars off with cloths?

Nah it wasn't that. It's the same song used in a DMX remix (although you wouldn't think it), but I can't post it due to swear words.

Stormrider · 24 Oct 2010 at 07:00

Flibster · 24 Oct 2010 at 07:00

Right, bacon and egg buttie and lake of coffee...

Arse! Race will start behind the safety car. :mad:

Ceryndrion · 24 Oct 2010 at 07:00

Button has been racing for years, one single year he was really competitive, when the car blew everything else away, anyone that suggests otherwise because for one or two races it COULD have been closer, doesn't really mean anything.

Yeah that's rights he's always been poor compared to his team mate :rolleyes:

Whenever he's had a decent car he's done well. That's all you can ask for.

The car didn't blow everyone away, if you actually looked deeper than the final results you would have known red bull won 2 of the first 8 races and should have took 2 more. Where as at no point in the 2nd half of the season did JB look like having a win or losing a win.

drunkenmaster said:
Likewise if the Red Bull car this year had the Brawn's reliability of last year, the title would be over already..

Obviously looking at football stats doesn't give you time to do the same with F1. The red bull has been as reliable. Webber has had 1 DNF and that wasn't due to reliability. Vettel has had 2 DNFs one of his own making. It's mistakes that's cost them an early title not reliability. Both Brawn and Red Bull had some issues but over the seasons the reliability has been pretty close.

drunkenmaster said:
Brawn were by FAR the best car for the majority of last year, thats simple a fact, no one even looked close, they weren't stressed, they cruised most of the time and a large part of the reason for such a big lead was no fighting over 1/2 in the team, .

No they weren't but don't let that get in the way of your great story. If they were fastest in was only in the first 8 races. After Silverstone they were no longer the fastest which is not the majority of the season. They also had races in the first 8 they should not have won. It's not JB's fault if the other teams **** up.

drunkenmaster said:
I'd also say Rubens is a FAR better no.2 than Button, why, because he's proved it, for a decade. Last year, and previously behind Michael he'll happily cruise around the track blocking off anyone, staying in a safe second, then he'll put in a 5 lap stint where he burns around the track making Button, even Michael at times look slow. Its just a little "I can drive faster, I choose not to" message. The same way Vettel even cruising into second will most of the time put in the fastest lap just to show even cruising at no.2, he's really faster or at least as fast as Webber..

You are drunk. If you are going slow compared to your team mate and doing this magically blocking off you seem to think he did then his tyres would have been in better shape for these so called rubens fast laps to prove he could go faster. What was he doing in qfy then to make sure he wasn't as fast as MS but ahead of 3rd?

Rubens must be some driver counting 1 mississipi two mississipi as he went round the track and nailing it to the 10th.

No one cares about fastest lap apart from a loser to convince themselves they took something from the weekend. Webber did it in the last race, if these no 2 cruisers as you have called them were really faster they would prove it on the track and atleast get passed at the stops.
