After the first race in Melbourne, teams that have KERS proved to be slower than those who does not have KERS in there cars for various reasons. May the teams, who currently have KERS, remove the system from there cars for the next races?

:D

Lewis came 3rd with KERS and did some good overtaking moves.

You call it overtaking when all cars in front has to retire? :rofl::rofl::rofl:
Ohhh but he did manage to overtake Force India :thumbup:

Well Kimi sticking it in the wall helped :D:clap:

:hehe::hehe:

Just like Vettel, Kubica, Massa aso. aso. aso.
In other words without help mr Macca would have been 14th :rofl:
So thank the lord for mech. problems and tight fights with other drivers :hehe::hehe:

He made a lot of ground through incidents, ill admit that, but he also took advantage of poor driving from the ones ahead of him, Kubica and Vettel for example.

:rofl::rofl::rofl: Which race have you been watching??


He drove spectacularly and deserved to finish where he did. But if you can't accept that he made up a lot of ground through incidents then you're just being silly.


Im not stupid!! Of course i realise he made up places through incidents!! I never said he didnt. What i said was he made several overtaking moves using KERS and not just past a force india as was suggested by someone who seems to have missed most of the race!

This was just one race, KERS might be more useful in different type of circuits, like Sepang next week.

What comes to the incidents making Lewis climb up the ladder, I'm actually rather surprised. I somehow expected him to be the impatient one and do over aggressive moves and cause accidents, but no. He gained positions because of mistakes from Kubica (stupid), Kimi (cannot understand why that happened, wasn't shown well), nakajima (no comment on that), etc the list continues. That was about best he could do, and if he continues like that maximizing the points while the car is still crap, he might still win another championship if they can improve the car by 2nd half of the season.

KERS proved good for some and not fair for some.....Renault couldnt really capitulate the KERS in their cars.. I hope Ferrari also comes out of their disastrous start this season....can they overcome????

Probably. Their start last year was just as bad, but with testing banned it makes it harder to predict.

It was a bad result, but had Kimi not spinned he would have finished on podium, so it's still ok for ferrari. They don't need major changes to improve. Maclaren on the other hand scored the maximum and needed help from other drivers and teams to get it.

Mclaren always requires other teams to win races...last race in 2008, Hamilton required Timo Glock to win the championship...Race today, Ferrari was atleast ahead of both the Mclarens in the pole positions.

Your posts so far would suggest otherwise, but don't worry: I wasn't just talking about you.
