BMWpower he lapped the entire field some drivers twice, its not like he had clear vision the whole way through, he had the spray of back markers etc. also he had issues with his visor you could see him on the straights wiping the inside of his visor, i know the feeling the Arai GP5 even though its ventilated it fogs up easy and its not great for visibility at the best of times, its not like a bike helmet!


Yes his drive was impressive, he had a full 60 seconds on the field, found a cure for cancer, started world peace, and convinced Simon Cowell to move back to the UK all in rainy afternoon. But you can't tell me that its not easier (not sayin not impressive ) to lead in the rain then to follow?? He had minimum problems with the backmarkers since they moved over once the blue flags are waved, it was more exciting watching Kimi, Heikki, and Alonso fighting each other, driving behind each other's rooster tails and if you gonna make a pass, make sure you don't hydroplane doing it.


you dont need to be a smart arse, I know you dont get the spray of the car infront when youre P1 but you do when you lap cars and lapping cars is not easy especially in the wet! and how do you know he had little trouble with back markers? did you have special coverage that followed him the entire race? but you make it sound like every car behind him was right behind another car and could not see,which wasnt the case, sure there were groups of cars but some had a clear run for example heidfeld in P2, he had a clear road seeing as Lewis was so far ahead.

Here come the Ferrari trolls

Just face it, Mclaren were way more on top this weekend! :clap:

Also Nick wow, he is back from this race! He drove superbly


You deluded McLaren supporter. McLaren as a team are the scum of humanity. The sooner they are fully aquired by Mercedes-Benz the better. And Hamilton, he may have driven a fine race in the wet but he will soon learn his place. Whilst at McLaren he will win no world drivers championship. If he continues down this path perhaps the FIA will need to step in. Bring it on, one way or another, the superiority of Ferrari and the kind that drives the team and its politiks will prevail. Justice will prevail as McLaren are bunch of cheats who after 2007 should of been barred for at least the 2008 season as well. :uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi::uzi: Ron Dennis, Lewis Hamilton, Bruce McLaren :thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown::thumbdown: ¡Vete al carajo McLaren!, Go to Hell McLaren!, Hajde u kurac McLaren!, Vattane in quel paese di merda McLaren!


What you saying ? All i can see is bullpoo ?

Yah and that is putting it lightly! :hehe:

We have a saying here in the state's AKR "Your so full of poo your breath stink's"!! AKR as I told you before dont give me your bs about ME not being a true tifosi as you are the one who is a detrement to all that is F1 and Ferrari. Your biased to no extreme, arrogant and just downright socially unacceptable in your view's about F1 and Ferrari and frankly it has gotten oh so very old and disgusting.

You need to stop with your bashing of every member who does not agree with your bullpoo AND reciting all your great knowledge of other language's, who give's a crap if you know 4-5 language's which you CONSTANTLY let everyone know, because the only one you speak here is :censored: !

You deserve what your getting because you only post your arrogant view's when Ferrari has lost and someone disagree's with your view as to why they lost! You have NOT added one positive aspect to this forum as a whole nor have you shown any respect toward's other member's due to your arrogance.

A TRUE tifosi and F1 fan,
Gregg


I was drunk. I am sorry. I know it is no excuse but I take it back. The part on Bruce McLaren I take back. It is all words I said, I have hurt nobody. Eitherway my sincere appologies for my behaviour. :(

Well... Nick was well behind Lewis (in order not to suffer from following him) but still he could not get any closer.

The only one that might have put a fight was Kimi, after all he and Lewis were almost bumper to bumper entering and exiting pits. I'm happy that McLaren took points, but hey, what a fight that might have been if Kimi's got new tires...

Beside two of them, no one else was fast enough, or had car good enough (or both) to mount any challenge. Still, others' incompetence is not changing the fact that Lewis had pretty much perfect race.

(And that comes from me, confirmed Lewis "hater" :wink: )

You're German? Ok, and I was writing to you in Spanish thinking you were Spanish or Hispanic. Oops, but at least I now know why I got no reply.


No, no. I'm not german. I am only in Germany now, for a few weeks. But notice the field says "location" not nationality :wink:
I didn't reply probably because I havent had much time in the past few weeks to use the forum. But yes, you were correct I am hispanic. :yes:


Ditto :) My appologies for thinking you were German. (And I have written this in English only because someone might not like it of I write it in Spanish. This isn't my choice). Eitherway I will remember next time you are Hispanic. :wink: And yes nationality is very important to me. :wink: But I love Spain, Latin America, their language and culture very much. :)

I'm not defending him, but I'd be pissed of if someone fires flash just a few inches from my face. I have camera with big flash (but for sure not as big as that one) and have tried flashing myself prom 50cm - couldn't see properly for a minute or so after that.

I guess photographer wanted to catch a close-up of Kimi's emotions... and he ended up with an extra serving of those.

That being said, a pro driver should know better how to control himself...

Apology accepted, well atleast from me as I cannot speak for anyone else. :wink:

I was not taking anything away from Lewis as I had stated before he deserved the win with his dominating performance. My implication was that I agreed that being in the lead and having the blue flag waving for you constantly should not be taken out of the equation.

thats a great shot actually, i like it and i think Kimi was more pissed off with him walking on his race gear rather than just the flash, which is fair enough!

True, but the press etc. are usually selfish tossers who will do anything for a story. The photographer is a professional as well, so he should have realised that sticking a telescopic lens with a powerful flash in somebody's face and standing on their racing equipment when Raikkonen is getting focused on a Grand Prix was completely out of order. The photographer got what he deserved.
