The only thing we can all agree on is that the Macca's need to be built like bulldozers for LH to have a shot at the WDC. :)

I agree. Hamilton's fighting style requires stronger suspension parts. Even a super Custom type car.

Force India to appeal stewards' decision:

Seems like there is a real war between FI and Williams for Constructor's points!

Shame we don't get another 20 pages of posts about the Sutil incident and penalty escalating to another war of the words between forum members! :lol:

You startin'? I'll see you round the back of the F1 Technical server out of site from the teachers! :lol: Image

Seriously though, it should be simple enough to sort out. If he went off the track to pass then the penalty is fair. I don't recall seeing this incident but it sounds like FI are on a hiding to nothing.

What about Rosberg then eh? Great stuff from him today, he seems to like every track.

I think that guy is just incredible. Not one bad lap, never any mistakes, clean, extremely fast and just so constant. I rate him a lot higher than Kubica,Vettel or Sutil. I think he is the biggest promise of the field right now. I've been saying this since 2006 though but people always seem to forget he has a dog as a car. He has almost as many points as Massa who is in a Ferrari!! If I were McLaren or Ferrari I would make sure he's with my team.

Wasn't rosberg tipped for a MacMerc seat last year along with Kimi and Button? Kubica and Rosberg are the two who are seemingly quietly just picking up points each race. Jenson, along with Rosberg and Kubi seem to be the best at picking up consistent points and not making mistakes.

I have to agree, I don't understand the general lack of support for Nico, but driving aside, he is smart and was offered an Aerodynamics scholarship at Imperial College in London. No small feat.

Bruno Senna on his accident:

Bruno Senna: “As soon as I came out of the corner and into the braking area the flags came out, but it was too late and there was no way to avoid the accident. The marshals were just too late and I didn’t have any notice of what was going on. It’s just one of those days. But we have to keep on working hard for Japan.”

The BBC showed a still shot - that's not a trick of the shadows, his tyre was off.

If I was Webber I would kiss the Bridgestone rep. That must have made the car odd to drive, one wheels profile, and likely pressure, changing around on that.

Wow. That is truly the "tire of God". We will soon know whether this tire has won Webber the championship.

Indeed. I am impressed that Webber brought the car home ahead of Button.
