2008 Japanese GP - Race 16/18

Kubica is very good. In fact, I would place him only behind Alonso and Hamilton.

I dont have a problem with you placing Kubica there, personally I place him higher on a level with Hamilton and Massa and Vettel and I place Alonso ahead of all them. I am not saying Lewis is rubbish but I don't think he is any better than 2 or 3 other guys in the sport and if they had a McLaren and a team designed to make them win like Lewis did then I believe they would shine just as much as Lewis is.
 
Yeh struck me as odd that a British reporter for a British Tv station was not more interested in Massa.

Did it really? Im surprised he had the chance to sit and talk to a F1 legend and decided to babble about Hamilton more than what he could have asked him. Michael really did run circles round him though.

Why does it matter if its British TV? Michael is German, working for an Italian team, why did they even bother to interview him if its just about Britain (Lewis)? Did they expect a Ferrari employee to bum up Lewis? Best bit was Michael showing humility and not arrogance unlike a certain Lewis, the difference in class as a person was there to see.

Quick question as I don't come into Motors / F1 threads often....

Is the "TheStig1" a real person or a forum bot programmed to generate discussion ???
 
Decided on the all nighter approach to the F1 now. Got all my stuff ready for it all, just gotta creep around the house now to not wake anyone up!
 
Well done gobbo - youve got some backbone - Im doing the same as I know I wont wake up...

Will content myself watching X Factor :( for now and then F1CE on the PS3 until the race...

knip - Ive got my dancing shoes on!!!

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
Oooh, talking about F1 games, did anyone else notice that the background music of the competition feature in the ITV show was the same as the background menu music in Race Driver GRID? Codemasters got in there fast.
 
When Hamilton and McLaren stop making needless mistakes he is going to be unstoppable IMO.

exactly, and that is why i think "thestig" is trying to put across, Kubica has had a much better season than everyone above him. That is the only reason Massa, Kimi or Hamilton aint miles into the lead, because they have all made stupid mistakes this season (and last season).... Hell kimi only won last season because of the balls ups from mclaren and the whole alonso vs hamilton rubbbish.
 
Still up... alarm set, may just go for 4 hours sleep. Worried what my body will think of me getting it up after 4 hours though.... meh.
 
The problem I have is that Ill happily stay up and then when the race starts Ill promptly fall asleep due to boredom - its happened so often in the past...

Hmm I need food, wonder if I have any of those small microwavable pizzas :p

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
I did the same for the Oz race, fell asleep about 2/3rds of the way through.

Feeling pretty awake atm, it is only 2am though!
 
Just got back from a night out, little bit tipsy and very tired, be interesting to see how long into the race I last... :p
