dannyjo22, sunama - remind me again which drivers have multiple podium finishes this season?.
What we are saying is that Ferrari need to recognise this and perhaps define a policy where if a Ferrari driver is climbing all over the back of another Ferrari driver, the driver in front, should give way. This is actually a strategy which used to be practised in previous decades (to avoid 2 team-mates taking eachother off).
I know what you mean I'm sure I speak for everyone on OCUK when I say that I missed Vetels finger celebration.
I couldn't disagree more.*sighs at race*
I realise Jenson Button is technically a good F1 driver but i find his driving, and personality so tediously boring it makes me cry when i see him win.
Did anyone see the fact that McLaren's rear exhaust setup was uneven today?
They had an asymmetrical exhaust layout with the lefthand side of both cars had something extra. This could clearly be seen when the cars were lining up on the grid from behind - the left hand side where the exhaust came out was more prominent than at the same place on the right.
Frank, given Hamilton's driving style of "eyeballs out", every lap, I find it difficult to believe that he was "going easy" because Button was leading. You can bet your bottom dollar that Hamilton was driving as fast as he could and would not have hesitated if the opportunity had presented itself to overtake Button.
I think its also fair to say that Hamilton wants to establish himself as No.1 and if he has the opportunity to overtake/beat Button, he will jump at the chance.
In those final laps, I believe both Button and Hamilton were driving as fast as their cars would allow.
Yeah. Makes sense to me that they can't cross the lines on the way out but on the way in people are slowing down and coming off the track.
Well, I don't know guys. When Ferrari used to exercise team orders everyone railed at them for it. And now you want them to use team orders. I just don't get it, I really don't.
Maybe one day Ferrari will somehow work up a situation that keeps you all happy.
Personally I can't believe Button has gone to Hamiltons team where Lewis is Well established & done so well. Nobody can tell me that Lewis is not Royally ***** off. Fair play to the Dude for being a man about it but Nobody can tell me he isn't Gutted.
It's a Long season & until it finishes we won't know who is best but for now Button has done Amazing whether you like him or not.
PinkFloyd - seriously? You really think someone with abolutely no racecraft at all took The Almighty Messiah Our Lord And Saviour Lewis Hamilton™ to the final round for the title in '08?
