Formula 1 - 2012

[~TABASCO~]

I missed the first of the race but going to tape it and watch it again. Looked like an awesome race. To bad for Vetal but I'm glad Hamelton made another dumb move and wrecked out.

It was a great race - Alonso worked his magic coming from 11th to 1st

Lulu ... what a dope - tried to close the door on the Williams when he knew he had no tire tread left ... then chucks a hissy fit getting out of the car ...

What a great season!

It was a great race, and Fernando is continuing to be the quality of the field. Delighted for Schumi to get his podium too. For once he benefits from the bad luck of others rather than suffering his own.

Pastor received a penalty from the stewards for his collision with Lewis, a it was clearly his fault for coming back on track in an unsafe manner. Yes Lewis could have yielded, but I don't believe Mark, Fernando or Seb would have done much different. I can't blame Lewis for being frustrated, and I am no fan boy I can assure you!

Have a good day, folks.

Be sure to watch for Alonso getting emotional on the podium. Shows you the guy has a heart. This win meant a lot to him.

I think Alonso gets the most out of the cars.

Race 9 - Silverstone, Great Britain

Today's race gents, with Alonso on pole! Ferrari's are on fire, even with Massa at 4th

Schui has made good with 3rd in qualifying (not unexpected - he's hot to trot in the wet).

If the weather clears, should be a good race. Enjoy ::008::

Dingo's Podium:
1. Alonso
2. Webber
3. Vettel.

Forgot to post my predictions prior to the race.
Thankfully it dried out.

Kimi still looking good. No podium this week, but he is just off the pace.

 

[Dingo]

Oh yeah ... Dingo calls it again, just got 1 and 2 mixed up!

Webber's having a great year - champion!

And someone put Maldonado out of his misery, for f-sake!

Lulu ... is that you down in the dumps? Oh, its Jensen ...

[Dingo]

I stand corrected ... after all the penalties, here's what the grid will look like at the German GP Start.

 

[~TABASCO~]

Woo Hoo. As always looking forward to the race tomorrow ))))

I like the Red Bull team but home can pull it off tomorrow

Race 11 - Hungary, Budapest - Hungaroring

Lulu has qualified for pole, however Lotus and RedBull are chomping closely at his heels. Kimi is such a talent - even with an average car, Im hopeing he can pull off at least 3rd.

Assuming he doesnt screw up, Lulu should take this one.

1. Hamilton
2. Vettel
3. Raikkonen

Have at it newbie. ::26::


Kimi ... what a star!

Results at Summer break ... Alonso with a clear lead, and the hunt for 2nd spread by 8 points.

I look forward to LOTUS first win... I think that Red Bull is going to take the constructors and the driver title this year. I think the Red Bull boys have more "technical ideas" coming down the road... I think this is what Martin was bitching about on the RB8.... : Hope the next 30 days go by fast... Looking for ward to Monza and Spa..... Wooooo - Hoooooo

This is a really old thread but I will add some info for the 2014 season..... Here is Jules Bianchi's crash from the left from last weekends Japanese grand prix..... Hope he pulls though.... Thoughts

That was a scary crash and looking at it, I'm surprised he still has a head left. Apologies for the bluntness, but there was enough impact energy to lift several tons of tractor into the air. Here's hoping for a miracle.

Thoughts and prayers are with him and his family and friends.
