Canadian Grand Prix 2011, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve - Race 7/19

Does anyone have a fullsize tunnel? I thought they were all 1/2 or 1/3 or something. A full size tunnel would be a lot of work...

ferrari are capable of testing a 65% scale to a 100% scale car in there wind tunnel i imagine the other top teams able to acomodate a full scale car to

He's had 25 races or so, during which time Hamilton has won 4 dry races. During the same period, Button won, 0.

Based on the above, it seems that in the wet, Button is stronger, while in the dry Hamilton is stronger.

A sample size of 25 races is quite a lot.

and how many times has the other one come 2nd - just out of interest.....

They have been around since day 1. He quite often has some black music artists around him as guests. Most people bring guests to F1, its just Hamiltons tend to 'stand out wit der bling and stance, innit, yo!"

Was thinking if they had just recently turned up they could be the reason for his recent driving.

He's driven well up to these last couple so i hope it's just a bad spell that ends in Canada.



I've also just read that 700 people complained that antiques roadshow wasn't show. So if we all send the BBC a well done for sticking with the race until the end we mite just even it up

We're only talking about winners here mate...no losers

In truth, I havent looked at the 2nd place and 3rd place stats.

 

[ps3ud0]

sunama in biased, poorly formulated hypothesis shocker

[sunama]

Biased because I can't be bothered to look up 2nd and 3rd places?
Can't be bothered - yes.
Biased - no.

even bernie defending hamilton.

maybe hamilton is colliding on purpose so that in a few more races people will see him and think i better just let him past or he will hit me and could ruin my race

I liked this bit on James Allens blog...

Hamilton was surrounded this weekend by a glamorous crowd in the McLaren hospitality area. Pop stars like Rihanna and Ice T, NBA basketball players towering over other guests, this was like a night at the MTV Awards, more than a race meeting. Ron Dennis looked on quizzically at all the bling.

“That’s where Lewis’ head is at right now,” said one seasoned F1 insider as we stood together surveying the scene.

Same's been said on various radio stations too .. needs to sort his priorities out.

Haha Lewis is the new Kimi, just a little slower.

interesting...Button overtook twice as many as anyone else who was Schumacher..Ham only overtook 1 person but crashed with 2! Vettel overtook no-one and was only overtook on the last lap...Alonso only overtook 1 person too.

but he pitstoped so many times that a lot of slower cars will have gotten past him a lot i bet he over took some cars atleast 3-4 times

 

[CaptainRAVE]

Still impressive to overtake that many cars and only collide with one.

 

[Duke]

Yep.

 

[Glaucus]

Cosworth are recruiting engineers and managers for their f1 decision. God I wish I was either.

 

[Irish_Tom]

Still impressive to overtake that many cars and only collide with one.

Technically, technically, he collided with two.*

*Yes I know one of those wasn't while he was doing the overtaking.
