Wez Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I was at practice yesterday and the board showed the top three as 1. Redbull, 2. Redbull and 3. ForceIndia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hobgoblin Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 My money (literally) is on Kimi, at 80/1 its possible. Chuck in a safety car, a shower, an accident, a botched pit-stop, a flawed strategy, a retirement, and there go all the drivers who were in front of him! Long live optimism.

RiceRocket Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Those are for the last race at Turkey. Yeah Had a few windows on the go so wasn't paying full attention. As for the race just the start then , they really need to sort this dirty air/overtaking malarkey out i.e Button at the end a prime example.

merckx Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 Is it only Ferrari with KERS now? I thought McLaren had a good setup? Yes , just Ferrari. One of the reasons for Mclaren not running with it is that there isn't really enough heavy braking during the lap to charge it up to make it worthwhile, potentially worth it though for the start alone as Ferrari proved. The teams are allowed to charge up the KERS system before the race starts so they've got a full charge available off the line at the start.

Whitesupraboy2 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 The Grid walk or DC baiting Eddie Jordan every time I never use to watch the pre race stuff...now i do as I sometimes think there is more action about to kick off in the build up!

SupraStar 3000 Posted June 24, 2009 Share Posted June 24, 2009 Sometimes I think F1 looks for problems that don't exist or exaggerate the ones that do just to fill time or make everything more "exciting",.. maybe making up for the lack of action on the track. How much time was taken up just talking about the race going to Donington Park next year actually during the race at Silverstone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Christ when is the FOTA vs FIA & FOA saga going to end? http://en.f1-live.com/f1/en/headlines/news/detail/090708194255.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 I find it difficult to understand why the FIA are trying to introduce a ridiculously low budget cap which the majority of teams don't want to adhere too, something more realistic and they might listen. You may aswell just have one manufacturer to produce all the of cars like they do in other levels of motoring racing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon F Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Christ when is the FOTA vs FIA & FOA saga going to end? Not in the near future I would think. F1 craves publicity - the last race at Silverstone was a total bore, at least one bookmaker has already paid out on the Drivers Championship, and there is still the best part of half a season to go. Only thing to do is to drum up some telly time. FIA + Max v FOTA a couple of weeks ago, Bernie appears this week and says Hitler got things done and Max would make a good PM ( both of which I agree with , and it's all back on News at Ten. You have to admire Bernie. He has sold a shite product, at top dollar, to Presidents, Governments, TV companies and punters over the world, all thinking they have bought into something special.

SupraStar 3000 Posted July 8, 2009 Share Posted July 8, 2009 Hitler got things done did he! Well maybe the FIA should murder 5,700,000 Jews and we might have a race on our hands for 2010. Sorry, but you can go around saying crap like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
