One thing I'd like to see is Rosberg give Hamilton a run in that Mclaren. However i'd much rather he stayed with Williams.

He's not as good as Hamilton but i think theyd be a good team.

Thats arguable.

Imagine what it's going to be like for Lola, USGP and Prodrive when (or if) they enter F1 next year, they'll be nowhere near Force India's pace.

It's crazy I would say all the teams currently in F1 are completely professional and all capable of getting stuck if you luck closely at the field spread today then you will see that it was really only 1.3 seconds between the the best car (SV 1:32.474) and the worst car ( Buemi 1:33.753). A new team coming into the sport now would be so out of its depth they would have no idea what to do.

It all depends though on how standardised Formula One becomes over the course of the next few years to be honest. If the likes of KERS gets standardised along side the engines etc etc, it could easily mean that a new team (with the right personel) could quickly find their feet.

WTF is with Webbers fuel load!!!!
Classic two stop fuel load he will make progress very quickly!


Its just prett low for P18

Probably the optimal strategy for where he is and the pace of his car he will make quick progress through the field.

Given he's going to fall back into the field when he pits, he has to make up a lot of places at the start and on the track to make that strategy work. Could be quite entertaining.

yep! i think if he is around 10-12 by the time to pit he might bag some points.

Sunday Times article about the GP by Mark Hughes

".......he(Hamilton) has has often seemed emotionally charged this weekend but he focused fantastically well in qualifying to transcend the level of his car, which has had no significant upgrades since the previous race. Regardles of the controvasies surrounding him and the limitations of his car, Hamlton is driving out of his skin. Whats more, he's equipped with KERS.........Seeing how hamilton can deploy it in an effort to keep what is probably an inferior car in a flattering position could be one of the highlights of the race, but the real intrigue centres on whether the Toyotas can work as a team to thwart the theoretically faster Red Bull of Vettel from winning. To expect Hamilton to figure in that battle is perhaps asking too much."

But we can still ask eh Lewis? :D

Hughes also discusses the different styles and personalities of the Toyota drivers. One the artist, one the craftsman.

The fact is, he is very sensitive to what makes a car quicker and is very intelligent -- he just doesn't always give it all away," said the Briton, referring to Raikkonen, who raced for the Mercedes-powered team between 2002 and 2006.

The fact is Raikkonen is lazy and inebriated. He's not worth his massive pay cheque.


I am curious, how do you know for a fact that Räikkönen is what you say he is? You must have known him personally for years and seen how he works like Whitmars? Strange how his and your opinions of Kimi are so different, though.

Or maybe that is just your worthless opinion which you base on how he acts infront of a camera.
