BMW To Investigate Qualifying Crash

Controversy in the first qualifying session of the year as their team leader crashed out during his qualifying outlap. New team leader Super Mario criticised the sudden change in schedule: "The time change caught our drivers off guard and both were asleep in the cockpit. Luckily Zenith got going again but his team mate was not so lucky and managed to hit a wall in the middle of the desert. I am not pleased with the result"

SONE be sure to check team talk!

Well done to the Super Aguri though, 8th!

Does anyone know how to pick which particular tyre you change to when you pit? In stratergy I've only picked one so it has to change it a <insert tyre type here no inside knowledge you see>, but it might change it to a slightly warn one of those rather than my fresh spangly one...

Team Toyota TOO Delighted

Team boss at Toyoyta, Gord, was seen today running down the Paddock naked immediately after qualifying. In a brief consultation during his nakedness Gord noted "I am ecstatic at this moment, to be ahead of some of the more highly acclaimed motors is a true acheivement, hats (and all other clothing) off to both drivers". They are confident with their race strategy, albeit surprised and now aiming higher than ever.

great, now how do I mod it, building large wings either side of the car so nobody can get past me and my glider style wings?

Unofficial Driver Statement

Following my front-of-the-grid qualification I have one message for all the other drivers. That message is simple, it is 'ha ha y00 suXX0rs', thank you

Not very good qualifying for Williams

, but I've worked out the car setup bit so my pre-race practice laps were a lot faster

. Looking forward to the race.

Team Toyota Happy

General happyness down at the Toyota base today as team boss relaxed in his Jacuzzi. "We were not expecting such a good start". They have also been testing today and have come away with a decent setup. We doubt we can compete with the ferrari or renault setup and im sure they are on for a win, but we hope to be competitive.

only a few hours left till the green lights

was just thinking that a Moto GP version would be quite cool too, any around?

Saytan · 24 Jun 2006 at 18:42

this game also does BTCC, indycar, aussie V8 supercars and A1GP

Sone · 24 Jun 2006 at 18:59

doh, gotta go out before the big race. I wonder how well the game works on mobiles?

Kol · 24 Jun 2006 at 19:05

Is input required during the race then? I assumed it just calculated the results from your setups etc.

Sone · 24 Jun 2006 at 19:11

just interested in the results, looks like we could do well looking at your warm up times

Hopefully, especially if the few minor changes I made are for the better. I was tempted to leave as exactly was, however, the changes I made have been subtle and towards the spot on values.

Saytan · 24 Jun 2006 at 19:28

no input is required for racing

Hello and thank you for joining us for another exciting season of formula1. As you know, this year there have been a few subtle changes to the rules leading to some exciting practices. The first practice saw strong runs from Renault and Honda, whilst the ferraris were split first and a massive nineteenth - way down the pack. Mr Saytan obviously gave fini a kick up the backside though as he stormed to the front of the fiel,d setting a blazing time creating a ferrari 1-2. In practice since then Toyota and Honda have again managed to muster some strength so we should be in for an exciting race. With Stupid Aguri somehow qualifying in the middle of the pack some of the back runners are going to struggle to race up the field. So, 10 minutes to go before its GO,GO GO!!!! in Bahrain 2006

missing 15mins of the boozer looking at this, must be a bigger geek than i thought

Shame i wasted all my tyres early on otherwise with Mikols help i think i could have been in with a chance of winning.

edit, do i risk "borrowing" mikols setup at the last minuite, could give me an edge
