I finihshed work today whoo whoo!! I wonder if those teams with faulty overalls would like to emply me as a badge sticher? Im good at sewing

Believe me, you won't be saying whoo whoo!! after 4 months.

Anyhoo, to the German GP. Just found this clip. Alonso's getting a bit frisky.

Seems McLarens problems were due to their experimental exhaust.

Schumacher is unyielding even in practice :hehe:

Yeah, good point about the exhausts, Renault were experimenting with a conventional (non-forward) facing one for Heidfeld. I guess the rule change next season, along with the restrictions in Sliverstone led to some rethinking of designs.

Looked innocent from the in-car view but a lot worse on the external shot. Nice bit of car control from Alonso.

Media must be absolutely desperate. Absolutely normal racing, Shumi had every right to take his line into the corner and it's up to Nando to avoid contact - which he did. Good driving from both. For what its worth, when he was asked about it, Nando said he was happy for the little bit of excitement.

"He was the fastest driver I ever saw - faster even than Fangio"

How do people watch practice sessions live when things like this are 'highlights'? MIchael was doing his own thing, and Alonso almost made a complete a** of himself, nothing new.

Ferrari is expected to take another win.

Are they? I haven't heard that... it's too early to tell anything, I expect the Red Bulls to lock out the front row, I would say that Alonso is likely to get a podium.

I would surely hope so, but, it seems that Ferrari is really strong now.

With all the other teams running their EBD again; Ferrari start off strong and end up falling back, don't get me wrong; I'm not a Ferrari fan but I wouldn't be unhappy if a Ferrari won!

McLaren were a little stronger in the third session, but it's still not enough

Chandhok brings proceedings to a close by spinning the Lotus and abandoning it....

Looks like Ferrari are getting their tyres up to temperature better than the Red Bulls but thankfully the Bulls were on top come the end of practice. Could be fuel loads. One theory is that the Ferrari, or at least Alonso, is running lighter. Qualifying will show the true pace.

Chandhok is struggling to get used to the Lotus which is to be expected considering that he cannot test outside of a GP and the Lotus will be a hell of a lot different to last years HRT.

McLaren are there or there abouts and Mercedes are still playing catch-up.

i think the correct wording should have been: Ferrari is hoping to take another win.

They look obviously within pace... not enough to already expect them to.

Came out fighting indeed.

Two in two. Hopefully Mark can convert this one to victory.

That was some Lewis Hamilton magic right there. :clap:

Knowing Mark's pole position starts, Lewis can really fancy one tomorrow.

First bitter taste for Seb...2nd row in his home GP.

Button 1.1 seconds slower than this teammate, well done Jenson.

Did anybody see the incident in the pit lane with MW and NH? Free practice 2 on friday

Will Buxton reported it but I never saw it

Lewis is on song given the gap to Jenson, driving the car where it shouldn't be?
