Grand Prix Rejects

Warren Hughes

BBC just showed an interview with Bernie by Eddie Jordan, lots of crap spouted by the senile one, but this one made me want to throw rotten tomatoes at the TV:
EJ: "Do you want them [Manor] there?"
BE: "No."

Warren Hughes

Uhh, Dorset?

One of those questions where the answer's so obvious that nobody's even bothered asking.

Warren Hughes

There's nothing new under the sun - and as if to prove it, Simtek now has the same sig that somebody (Waris?) had in about 2009

Warren Hughes

Like Rob, I've used every kilometre available to me to create a rally stage around the area I was on holiday about 6 weeks ago. If you fancy a little StreetView safari, I'd recommend the area around km 21-25.

You say 5-1 we say 5 in a row, 5 in a row, 5 in a row

Big fan of all pre-Stoddart Minardi liveries, but I've got a particular soft spot for the black, white and green editions of 1995-96 (modelled here by Pedro Lamy at what looks like Interlagos) http://fc08.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2013/169/0/1/pedro_lamy__brazil_1996__by_f1_history-d69lix2.jpg

Why is Bernie giving us an Azerbaijan Grand Prix in Baku, when the one we really want is Nakhchivan???

Circuit is clockwise from the 'start' marker, if that wasn't obvious

Warren Hughes

Intensely rejectful national anthem cock-up

Warren Hughes

We seldom heard Seb celebrate quite like that at Red Bull - it often sounded a little, well, forced. Like, 'this fits my persona so this is what I'm going to do'. I found it quite joyous to see just how much his win meant to him yesterday, it's that as much as anything else that's most likely to win...

Warren Hughes

Finally, and this is what old bezzers like Bernie will never understand, the creation of this sort of series would firmly cement the drivers competing as second rate, a level below the men in the real motorsport, and the women drivers of the future, who may just break the mould of those I mentioned...

Warren Hughes

A lot have commentators have said he has brought an air of calm to the team; that's good news as it seems like the Vettel of old is back , not the guy who was stifled in the toxic atmosphere of Red Bull Racing . Hang on, didn't he bring about most of that toxification himself? Either way, he and th...

Warren Hughes

Biscione has made the (undoubtedly correct) call, but I feel minded to remind everybody that ROTR is for specific rejectful actions more than general bad performance

Most pathetic entrance into a gravel trap since China 2007.

Warren Hughes

1. VETTEL - 'this is a feelgood award'; Vettel made me feel good today (not in that way

) and I never thought I'd be saying that
2. Verstappen - who'd have thought it, the boy belongs here

Warren Hughes

I alluded to it before, but Mercedes basically hoyed that race away at the safety car. I'd say they were beaten on strategy and not on pace - if either one of them had stayed out behind the safety car and done a 2 stop I think they'd have beaten Vettel. Even so, isn't if refreshing to see somebody c...

Warren Hughes

Mercedes should have split their strategies; they seem to have totally messed this up putting both on the primes behind the early safety car.

If you'd told me 2 years ago that I'd be cheering Vettel to victory in a Ferrari...

Ericsson makes a strong early move for ROTR

Glad they delayed the start of the session because of the weather only for everybody to go out on inters...

Warren Hughes

I'm inclined to agree, I'd like to see them at least give it a go in these conditions. Problem is if they start it they'd have to finish it, and if it turns out to be carnage and then doesn't get any better they'll have nowhere to go. As in, if they red flagged it with 5 minutes to go they'd have to...

Warren Hughes

Merhi 4 tenths outside 107% apparently; hopefully they'll let him race but I'm not confident given the noises that certain people have been making about Manor.

Warren Hughes

Don't agree at all with that; pretty sure Schumacher would have won races in the 1996 Benetton, don't think Vettel would be winning in this year's Red Bull. Basically everyone knows that F1 is pointless for Red Bull (the drinks company) if the team's not winning; they can't win on merit at the momen...

Warren Hughes

I enjoyed the Oz GP to be honest, with the exception of the non-battle for the win. I only watched the BBC highlights on Sunday evening though, maybe if I'd seen the whole thing - at 5 in the morning - I might not have been quite so entertained. Agree with those who say Rosberg looks a beaten man be...

Warren Hughes

Just adding my voice to the gratitude of the masses! Biscione, Nuppiz, you did great.

Maybe I might come on the forums more often again. Maybe. It's a definite maybe.

2015 'Breath-of-Fresh-Air' Grand Prix

1. Felipe Nasr
2. Carlos Sainz Jr

Next let's have someone challenging Mercedes?

What do you mean dreamland?

Warren Hughes

The 'just nipping back for a while' post:

Hi guys, how is everyone? This is not a permanent return, I just thought I'd pop in and say hello. How are my former drivers doing (the Camerons and Schiller, for those who'd forgotten)?

Warren Hughes

F1RWRS was doing restrictive superlicense requirements before it was cool.

Warren Hughes

It's a beaut, thank you.

Warren Hughes

NINTH ON THE GRID! NINTH!!! THIS IS THE BEST DAY EVER!!

Warren Hughes

Could somebody do mine please? On GP4 it looks something like this.

Warren Hughes

I really hope this doesn't happen, only because I don't want to see Grosjean's career derailed when he was finally coming to the fore as a top driver. If you put him in the other Red Bull right now, I imagine Vettel would have some serious trouble dominating the way he did against Webber... I agree...

Warren Hughes

Rietacher mate, contracted reserve driver and all that

Warren Hughes

He did the North US Grand Prix actually. Look, I know Prospec are irrelevant right now, but maybe keep an eye on teams your drivers are involved with? I'll take your offer on Piscine ON THE PROVISO that Aerond doesn't count Rietacher against my 4 driver limit as he didn't with Vantini. Yes, Rietach...

Warren Hughes

Oh Pasta, I'm not happy with you. If Rietacher was unwilling to drive for me, then maybe he shouldn't be my test/reserve driver? He's already done one race to little fanfare, so don't go kicking up a fuss now. An NC race in the off-season, mind you. The fact is Rietacher isn't ready for F1RWRS, he ...

Warren Hughes

Rietacher to stay put Despite Pemberton Prospec Racing's offer to Martyn Rietacher to take the second Prospec F1RWRS seat following the controversial move by Fredo Mestolio to Jones, Rietacher has made an announcement stating his intention to stay in F2RWRS for the rest of the year.

Rietacher lands Prospec drive until end of season Prospec reserve driver Martyn Rietacher has been handed the second race driver's seat for the team after Fredo Mestolio's abscondment and subsequent signing for Jones. The German has impressed in lower categories, but looks unlikely to make any impr...

Warren Hughes

I'M BACK! How do I go about suing Mestolio for breach of contract?

Warren Hughes

Wow, I never thought this day was coming. This season has all happened so fast, I have to thank the team for giving me this chance, I have to thank Autodynamics also for giving me the car to show what I can do in the start of the season... I don't know what to say, it's overwhelming. To be a F1RWRS...

Warren Hughes

Please excuse me, but Jordan Davies has never driven for Prospec and therefore, by definition, he cannot have ever been F3RWRS champion. So there You sold me a dud! You f***ing b*****d!!! This Greenlaw bloke is terrible! You must have juiced your cars or something! Nothing to do with me, I just emp...
