On that note - WTF was up with EJ's comment about Kovalainen's mistake on the last corner? 'I don't believe Hamilton would have allowed such a mistake'. BS. You don't allow mistakes to happen, numpty. :rolleyes: It's not like Lewis never makes any mistakes. Eddie really came across as totally biased towards the Brits today, what with that and then him saying 'let's hope he [as in Button] can get past [Vettel]'.
tbh, the programs broadcasting in britain, hes british, brits are paying for the channel, so hes gonna be biased, the brits are who most want to see win.
TBH i don't like that bias the BBC should be impartial it's partly what they are about.
Yeah - commentators / pundits / presenters shouldn't be biased. Just because I'm British, doesn't mean I support the British drivers, and even though I'm probably in the minority, the BBC should remember that. I hated the wank-fest over Hamilton that ITV put out every race weekend, and the BBC seem (apart from Eddie's comments) to be doing a better job of it. Also, the BBC coverage is broadcast in other places than the UK, is it not (although I'm not sure where I got that idea from, so I might be wrong :D)?

Yeah Australia and I am pretty sure New Zealand get the BBC coverage, but dont worry our presenters are just as biased in regards to Webber. Its only natural and makes sense for the broadcaster to give what the majority wants.

I had the dubious pleasure to watch the '08 Valencia GP on German TV - biased doesn't even begin to describe what they're doing :rolleyes:

well thats interesting, some light mclarens, good job for heki then, and looks like the brawns have got the red bull, although jenson better get used to kimis exhaust. rosberg did pretty well as well.

I'm assuming those commas are in place of decimal points.

Prob I got it off some Polish site... :hehe:

Trulli will be more like a mobile anvil, let alone chicane! Even Badoer should have no trouble passing Trulli at the start!

so rubens has 2-3 more laps than Lewis.
:yes:

Which, I think, puts him up front as the fastest driver fuel-corrected. However I doubt that three laps will be enough unless he gets one of his good starts and can stay ahead of the McLarens. He should be safe for third place, though, seeing as Vettel is so light. I really think this one is between the McLarens.

I think Lewis could easily win this if he gets away clear.

I just hope Hekki can stay with him and play rear gunner so we can clinch our 1st one-two in over a season.

I want Heikki to jump him at the start and win. He's really been on it this weekend. :)

A 1-2 either way would be good for McLaren, though.
