What? I just said I hope Massa does better than his more highly rated teammate again! What's your deal?

If you still think Ferrari see their drivers as EQUAL, well you have every right to think that! It doesn't mean the rest of the F1 world are fooled now are they?

Let's just enjoy the 3 week break, maybe Ferrari might break into the podium in Turkey. More the merrier.


Well your basically calling being made number 1 driver a token position, or at least one not worthy of switching team mates around?


I dont understand your sentence. Could you kindly rephrase? :blush:

I predict there will be several hundred KG of rubber at the side of the track come the end of the race weekend! That's about the only thing that is for sure in Turkey

The 'clag' does seem to be increased 10 fold with the Pirelli's. Will not make any predictions but I do have a few things I would like to see:
1. Hambone beat the RB's again and for Button to choose the correct pit :twisted: .
2. Sauber to finish higher and with less front wing changes.
3. Massa beat Alanso again.
4. Schumacher or Rosberg get a win or atleast a podium.
5. Williams can/will hopefully figure out their issue and get a top 10 finish.

3 weeks to go :(

I think this is only one of two 3 weekers in the whole season? I dont think theres any more 1 week breaks anymore either?



Vettel Pole and Vettel win i reckon.
#252161
Yes these three weeks will seem like an eternity but that is 3 weeks of tweaks the teams can make so maybe and hopefully we will see an even better battle :) .

Newey will have nothing to do with KERS, he is only interested in balance...

I think this one's going to Vettel! :clap:

Keep hoping...
Things like that are unlikely to happen again, 'cause it was a clear strategic mistake by the team.

You saying the development race is over? Im sure Redbull wont stop, because the other teams aren't. RB's advantage might not last as long as youd think or hope :wink:
#252240
No, I'm not saying that! I think that race is about to get even more interesting with Mercedes and Ferrari joining the Battle, maybe even Renault getting better.
I'm saying that Hamilton passed Vettel thanks to the tyre condition, nothing more.

Engines suddenly stop revving, spark plugs suddenly stop sparking, team mates suddenly stop cooperating with one another... anything can happen, and last year is proof of that. If anything Red Bull's car last year was more dominant than this year's car and look at the amount of chances they gave both McLaren and Ferrari to take the championship away from them.

Same condition under which Vettel passed Hamilton.

Noone can predict everything, but it's amazing that after 3 races all the top drivers finnished their races.

The RBR seems more reliable this year compared to last year (apart from KERS)

I agree, this is a very impressive stat actually. The most significant thing I admire about the teams, when you compare reliability from the late 90s to now, reliability and quality control is in a completely different league. It's what reliability centered maintenance and advanced QC management can do for you no matter how complex. :thumbup:

Whats more strange is that in 2010, the cars were only tiny tiny upgrades (mostly, apart from red bull) from 2009, and they were breaking all over the place.


This year they got to put KERS on, and the DRS, and super dissoling tyres, and nobody wants to break.......Apart from Williams who are enjoying it it seems.
