The Formula 1 Thread - 'MURRICAH scoring them points

Fucking Vettel did it again easily. I thought no way, but I guess they have the KERS working for him now, but not Webber.

It is supposed to rain tomorrow, so it looks like McLaren gambled and went for a rain setup. It actually started raining 15 minutes after qualifying.

We got a wet race!

/edit: 8 laps into the race and Hamilton bumps his own team to remove himself from the race. Watch him somehow blame it on the stewards for them hating on black people again.

race has been trilling, poor Hamiliton. That wasn’t his fault though, he had the grip and would have easily overtaken but Button didn’t check his mirror’s and pulled straight across into him.

I thought the last of Monaco was an amazing race, but Button brought this race down to the wire. Awesome performance by Button, from last place to first. If you can get your hands on a dvr, watch this race.

Button was a machine today. This might go down as his best finish.

Fuck yeah Jenson!

Jenson went on a Rampage. Even with the early bump from Hamilton, nothing could stop him. Anyone see this?

Also the commentators mentioned something about Tony Stewart vs. Hamilton tomorrow. Anyone else hear about that as well?

lol and they said Hamiliton’s parking was bad, how fucking stupid are those marshalls. Probably do more damage to the driver than themselves

Made because of Ono’s trolling about making an SF where you could create your own fighter within set rules, and comparing it to F1 homologation. C & D are under debate (my biases are showing), but the rest is spot on IMO.

I think Ferrari is clearly better than Lotus Renault & Mercedes GP, Massa is under-performing.

Looks like the Vettel show again and this track isn’t so great for racing if I recall correctly. I still might wake up early and catch a stream.

RBR is just unstoppable. At least cry baby Hamilton decided to show up.

Engine mapping nerf for qualifying intended to quill Red Bull Dominance didn’t even work at Valencia lmao. G fucking G.

Watching Seb on Top Gear. As much as I hate him for making a boring season, he is a pretty nice and even funny guy (for a German no less).

LOL at him doing accents and making jokes and being a fan of British comedy in general.

The Ferrari cars are faster than the McLaren cars. McLaren just has better drivers.

Hamilton needs to leave McLaren because they keep making too many basic errors.

They taught him to drive didn’t they, he learnt everything about F1 racing from them, so he is basically family, I don’t see how he could leave them

I’ve been watching F1 recently as my Asian girlfriend used to transcribe interviews for F1 drivers in Japan; so she’s got me all up in it on Sundays. I fucking love it. All I want to know is when Red Bull is going to start putting cars in dealerships? Seriously.

Score one for Ferrari’s politics. The race was still interesting to watch, but even with all the new rule changes to the cars, RBR is still holding it out on top. Alonso wins his first race this season after Ferrari bitched about their car limitations to the FIA and got what they wanted.

Sad that they didn’t let Webber duke it out with Vettel. We will see what Webber does since his contract with RBR is up next year.

True but they havent delivered to give him a championship winning car in over 2 years, not to mention the blunders they often make at the pit stops denying both him and Jenson a place on the podium over basic errors.
I heard red bull were considering to hire Hamilton but their current boss put a stop to that because he believes Vettel and Hamilton wouldnt get along because they’e the 2 best drivers in f1 right now.

Replacing Whitmarsh for Dennis possibly the jump start McLaren needs?

Saw the highlights on BBC news site, damn I wish I had watched it live, brilliant driving by Lewis :rock:

Monza on.
We ain’t forgot.
Anybody but Vettel.
