Grand Prix Rejects

Well, yeah, the new teams. All six cars got to the finish! First time ever? And on the Hungaroring! And Lotus again got the upper hand of Branson's team!

And who's Muttley then? Willy Weber?

The race started out a bit sluggish, but - probably Liuzzi's? - spoiler on the track made everything quickly interesting. Mercedes shot themselves on the foot for messing up Rosberg's stop, Renault destroyed Kubica's chances as well as Sutil's even though he was behind, Hamilton FINALLY retired with...

02. Vitaly Petrov - For beating Kubica in the qualifying and then keeping his head calm and taking a fifth position! Well deserved! Congratulations. 03. Nico Hülkenberg - For keeping himself calm, not making mistakes and driving in sight of Petrov! Sixth place, eight points! Nice work. BUT... KAMUI ...

I'm going to name a few rejects. 01. Michael Schumacher. Why the hell do you have to almost push Rubens onto the wall? You almost got him into an accident! For ONE GODDAMN POINT. Shame on you. Penalty is well-deserved. 02. The Mercedes pit-crew. You managed to not only mess up Nico Rosberg's chances...

That's right. Alonso will probably get to lead. What if Webber messes up his start? It's the dirty side, as you said.
90 minutes left, so... we'll see!

This is amazing so far!

HWNSNBM is from the same country as I am.
Really!

Sorry, but it will NOT rain today. :'( Sad thing is, that 120 miles SW from Hungaroring, it was raining AGAIN yesterday where I live. I wish to see some rocket start from Felipe, he could do it two years ago... till his engine broke down, which was one of the reasons why he actually LOST the champio...

Fontana also did it in Silverstone 97

Rubens, how does it feel to watch Michael lose to his teammate?

This is very good!

Ah damnit. He got held up by... Yamamoto, I guess? It was a HRT for sure. Now he's thrown back into the pack of newcomers. Now if only he could manage to scrap points tomorrow.

If we only look at the qualification results... then... Schumacher, who didn't manage to get to Q3 yet Rosberg did it!

I have to watch it online tomorrow. Dad never watches the quali.

Update! Here's 1989! 1989 Prost: 18+18+18+10+25+25+25+18+12+18+25+18+15=245 - 13 result - (-10)(-12)=223 Senna: 25+25+25+6+25+18+25+25=174 Patrese: 18+18+18+15+12+12+10+18+15=136 Boutsen: 12+1+8+25+1+15+12+15+15+25=129 Nannini: 8+15+4+12+15+10+12+25+18=119 Mansell: 25+18+18+15+25+15=116 Piquet: 12+4...

I have a suspicion... a really surprising result is about to bound, with an "unknown" team emerging victorious.

My prediction for the Hungarian GP is: 1. Vettel 2. Webber 3. Kubica 4. Button 5. Alonso 6. Hamilton 7. Sutil 8. Massa 9. Barrichello 10. Rosberg Pole: Vettel Fastest lap: Kubica First Retirement: Liuzzi ROTR: Liuzzi - Thrashed by Sutil, like many times this year, and retires in the first corner, ta...

Montoya and Speed, forming Team Red Bull Vodafone McLaren Chevrolet?
Well, we don't know what will happen yet.

Hehe... Proof that I'm Hungarian, here's a sentence. Try to Google Translate it! Tényleg magyar vagyok, ezt be is vallom itt. It messes up a little bit, but it's GT's fault. Now to turn back ontopic... you know, I hope it's going to rain. Remember, it was raining only once during a race, in 2006. No...

According to USA Today NASCAR is struggling to maintain a decent level of interest, perhaps Ron has eyes on livening it up with an entry?

Don't get me started imagining it...

Team Vodafone McLaren Chevrolet?

According to FP1, Kubica AGAIN seems to be edging with the Red Bulls just like in Monaco. I really, really hope he can catches up to the front at least here. He had bad luck with his car in Silverstone and he was far away from the leader pack in Hockenheim. Oh, and for a fun fact: I'm Hungarian... j...

I found one you might find fun to caption!

Thanks! Here's 91 and 90. 1991 - took the Australian GP's halved points into account. Senna: 25+25+25+25+15+15+12+6+25+25+18+18+10+18+12,5=274,5 Mansell: 18+8+18+25+25+25+18+25+25+9=196 Patrese: 18+15+25+10+18+15+10+25+15+15+5=171 Berger: 15+18+18+12+12+18+12+25+7,5=137,5 Prost: 18+12+10+18+15+15+18...

Not bad. You forgot to add a 4th place to Warwick, because you counted three. Capelli finished 6th in Adelaide, not fifth. You added two plus points for him. Forgot to add Nakajima's 7th place in Suzuka, so he got 33 instead of 27. But otherwise, perfect. Nicely done. Here are my results. Did an all...

I already counted 88 up, but Jeroen Krautmeir wants to do it, so I let him.

By the way, if all results would count, McLaren would have 576, if top 11 per driver, then 501. Ferrari had... 601 in 2002, and... gulp, 641 in 2004!

I'm not going to talk about Ferrari, they still got 1-2, as this comment is being written. Force India slipped back to their 2008-2009 uncompetetiveness with their blatant tyre mix-up. You can run fast laps, but if you had to make an extra pitstop, you're forced to play catch-up... and they didn't g...

Thanks!

Yes, do 88 if you want to. I'll post mine after yours!

I probably have messed up some counting here and there... dunno, my results are a bit different. Anyways, did 1994, 1993 and 1992. 1994 Hill: 18+8+25+18+18+25+4+18+25+25+25+18+25=252 - Hill WON the championship due to more starts and therefore finishes. Schumacher: 25+25+25+25+18+25+25+25+25+18=236 ...

You've missed Sooper Aguri! from the 2007 team results. But otherwise very interesting! Whoops, apologies I'll edit this post with more results. Thanks for reading! Here are more results. 2003 Schumacher: 12+8+25+25+25+15+25+10+15+12+6+4+25+25+4=236 Raikkönen: 15+25+18+18+18+18+8+12+15+18+12+18+18=...

Hey everyone, I got bored, so I decided to take a look at championship results with the 2010 points system. There are a few changes here and there. 2009 Button: 25+12,5+15+25+25+25+25+8+10+6+6+18+10+4+10+15=236,5 Vettel: 25+18+12+15+25+18+15+4+12+25+12+25=206 Barrichello: 18+5+12+10+18+18+15+8+1+25+...
