Considering your line of work, I would think you'd have a more pronounced affinity to cox...

We were all thinking it, but only one person would say it.....

[What's Burning?]

This Massa Perez thing is getting a bit stupid now.

[CookinFlat6]

At least it distracts Massa from going on about getting his points back and becoming WDC for 2008

Get off the twitter boys, Its time to move on and focus on Austria

I dunno, I'm hoping for something like this in the press conference.



Who will bring the photos?

[Hammer278]

The only difference is Massa will burst into tears at sometime during the interview. He seems like a true crier to me.

[What's Burning?]

I think that's the only recorded evidence of Kimi ever smiling at one of those. That was precious, and so I've changed my mind.

Hey Geet, how do you like Direct TV?

I LOVE DIRECTV!!! For real the service is awesome. In my area the main two providers are directv and cox. There's also century link but I've only met like two people in my life that have them Directv is cheaper than cox over the course of the two year contract. Directv has six channel packages. It goes from first being the cheapest and least amount of channels to the sixth being the most expensive with the most channels. I have the fourth one (Xtra) since that's the cheapest one that has NBCSN, which I got specifically for Formula 1!! For that package the first year monthly payments are cheaper than cox but in the second year they are more, but over the two years it still adds up to less than cox and I like the whole set up way better than cox anyway. I got the genie box with my contract so I can record like five different things at once. I've had my DVR loaded up pretty good and never had it more than 65% full so there's plenty of room for stuff. Oh, and my service is for two TVs. One in my room and the one in my living room.

I've also only had one issue with satellite reception for about two hours once during a wicked storm. I also had a DVR glitch with recording an NFL sunday ticket game and they sent me a whole new box when I called them about it. The customer service is I also just took a $50 rebate offer for subscribing to showtime for three months at $13.99/month. After the three months I mail in the three bills with the showtime service and they send me a $50 visa card, so I make like $6 off the deal

Shame that AT&T have just bought DirectTV, which means of course; everything that is good about DirectTV will be stripped away and it'll be awful like Uverse.

Hopefully they line up both Massa and Perez for the Thursday press conference at Austria, could be a lengthy one.

Coulthard's take:

Lewis Hamilton is faster than Nico Rosberg

...Mercedes have had strong reliability so far this season, but Montreal has always been marginal on brakes, and if you have two cars racing hard all the time, then that puts more pressure on them.

This year, the rear brakes are smaller than in the past because a lot of the braking load is taken by the energy recovery system on the rear axle. But if the hybrid system stops working - as it did on both Mercedes in Montreal as a result of overheating - then that puts a lot more strain on the brakes.

In many ways, you would think it was inevitable at that point that they would have brake failure.

Yet when that happened, around lap 35, Nico Rosberg and Lewis Hamilton continued to race flat out, with reduced power from their engine as a result of the hybrid failure.

Ten laps later, after his brakes had heated up in a pit stop, Hamilton's did fail and Mercedes said it was purely luck that the same thing did not happen to Rosberg as well.

That's perfectly feasible. I know from my own experience that things like that can happen. Sometimes it is just the luck of the racing gods.

As it was, Rosberg had to drive for the rest of the race not only with 160bhp less from his engine, but looking after his brakes as well, by braking earlier and with less pressure.

That gave us a great race for the last 25 laps - and a new winner in Daniel Ricciardo - but it meant Mercedes failed to win a grand prix for the first time this year...

Lucky lucky boy wasn't he. Three times a lucky boy in that race
1) git away with locking up a the first corner
2) got away with leaving the track
3) got away with the brake failure.

Lucky in Monaco too, got away with the parking thing.

And in the British GP last year after Lewis' tyre exploded they called Rosberg in and his was on the point of explosion.

Very lucky boy.
