Want to talk about shredded carbon fibre, try this one for size. This wasn't Alonso's rookie season either.

Why would you post something like that? What does it prove? Nothing! It's one thing posting a crash that is a bit odd like someone running into the back of someone else at low speed in the pitlane or someone stopping in the wrong pit box (bit of a harmless giggle), but getting your jollies from a crash where a driver required medical treatment, regardless of who you support, is pretty low. :nono: No doubt you'l laugh at this but I really couldn't give a damn if you do.

Even more lols
You wanna go down that route?
You know you'll lose.


Dude, why rise to the bait?


Hola andrew, firstly you're no moderator so keep your comments to yourself.

Secondly (this is my justification for everyone else), Alonso was fine after that crash as far as I remember, it was a heavy crash but that doesn't mean I can't post it up since it doesn't break any rules and as far as I remember, he took part in the very next race.

Thirdly, you do know I couldn't give a damn about what you say, so why bother trying to moderate me? Btw, why are you reading my posts in the first place? Put me back in your ignore list please, I dont need a wannabe moderator squealing about my posts. :wavey-finger:

You need to click on the YouTube tab on the right of the menu which tops the text window.

Copy and paste the link from YouTube inbetween the YouTube tabs. But the only part of the YouTube link you need is the last part. See example below:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Wn1EFLa2C8

The part which is bold and underlined is the bit which you put inbetween the YouTube tabs.

I guess that's fair enough. No one knows how anyone will fare but it's fair to say we can expect McLaren, Ferrari and Redbull winning races in 2013 since the regulations won't be changing much.



Of course they will win races in 2013 but that's not enough for a Mclaren fan or some fans. It's like my favorite football team Arsenal,great football and plenty of matches won but where is the freaking silver.

If you are really happy with Mclaren just winning races like Ron seems to be then perhaps it's time to support another team that really does want to win championships.

Personally i think the road cars have taken first priority at Mclaren and their share holders.


I know exactly what you mean with the comparison to arsenal who are also my fave team. however Arsenal have Wenger who it can be argued almost makes up for the lack of silver by his ability to perform miracles that no other manager does given the same resources (or lack of), to come close to Chelsea, and the Mancs every year even whilst building and moving to a new stadium and keeping the club in rude financial health without handing over to rich individuals almost tempers the sadness of not winning thing.

With Mclaren though, they have just admitted that they are no longer a top tier team, they are just a business struggling to survive. They cannot employ top drivers in a bid to be the best. they have admitted that they ar in the market for pay drivers, which is what Perez is, albeit one that has talent.
McLaren cannot live off past glories for too long, they have to start paying for engines, they have to start competing for sponsors, they have bitten off more than they can chew with the road cars, the 458 has refused to let the 12c intrude in the 200k bracket, and now Mclaren have turned to plan B - the Veyron space
McLaren are propped up by past glories, their claim to the biggest sponsors has eroded and indeed the biggest sponsor is leaving. They cannot afford to get the best drivers like Seb, Alonso or Lewis
Instead like arsenal they put on a brave face and find the best pay drivers available, Perez is good but he is inexperienced and Nogrip aint the guy youngsters should emulate. Nogrip will soon be looking to Perez for help and direction with setup and hunger.

McLaren are now like Williams, a customer team with limited funds and limited hopes, in fact the difference is that McLaren have cheap mediocrity inbuilt at management stage. 'just hang in there martin, try to at least compete with the big teams so we can keep the facade up'

Friken losers

Hola andrew, firstly you're no moderator so keep your comments to yourself.


So what if I'm not a moderator? That is irrelevant. If I see something I don't agree with then I have the same right as every other member of the forum to voice my opinion on that.

Secondly (this is my justification for everyone else), Alonso was fine after that crash as far as I remember, it was a heavy crash but that doesn't mean I can't post it up since it doesn't break any rules and as far as I remember, he took part in the very next race.


Given the way the thread was going it looked like you were poking fun at Alonso for crashing. Therefore I stand by my comments.

Thirdly, you do know I couldn't give a damn about what you say, so why bother trying to moderate me? Btw, why are you reading my posts in the first place? Put me back in your ignore list please, I dont need a wannabe moderator squealing about my posts. :wavey-finger:


If you don't care why bother replying? Therefore you do care. I don't see who I am trying to moderate you because I disagree with something you posted? As for being a wannabe moderator - that is totally laughable. Heck I just fell off my chair I was laughing so hard. Not that it is any concern of yours, I have no aspirations to be a moderator. Lastly, don't tell me whose comments I can or cannot read. I don't need a wannabe moderator telling me what I can and cannot read. Happy trails.

Throw some Mercedes stickers on an HRT car and stick LH in it.

I wish the news was switched... LH retires and MS goes to Mclaren

You caught me, I do care. I care enough to make sure you realize that I couldn't give a rats a*se about what you have to say or think. So as long as you know that, we can live in peace. :thumbup:

I stand by my video in response to f1ea as well, whether you like it or not. Even if I DO break any forum rules, do not waste your time giving me lectures since <Pls see above sentence>. Happy trails. :wavey-finger:

Incorrect bolding though: the underscore after the equal sign also belongs to the part one needs to copy and paste between the YouTube tags.
