Grand Prix Rejects

I am a fan of Sutil and yes, this season he seems to have dialled out the many mistakes that litter his F1 career up to now. What we now have is a consistant points scorer who seems like a poor man's Kubica if you go on this season alone. He deserves a shot at a bigger team and Mercades would be a g...

Anyone slightly surprised David Coulthard doesn't feature? For a man who got involved in a lot of first corner pile-ups and ridiculous accidents. He clocked up 23 DNFs in 3 seasons didn't he? There was that season with Williams where he failed to finish 8 races and still ended up 3rd in the Driver'...

As long as Mastercard do everything they are supposed to do then this is fantastic news for Renault. I don't buy the Kimi rumours but people like to sell stories and driver moves sell better than a team getting a new sponsor so it is only to be expected that he gets mentionned.

Minardi Raw Pace - 2.5 In the years I've followed F1, Minardi were never off the back few rows. Some people think the new teams are too slow this season but it was a regular occurance to see Minardi multiple seconds off the pace. Driver Selection - 7.0 Whereas most smaller teams would go for multip...

Ferrari were rubbish this weekend So, both cars in 3rd and 4th place before the SC is now "rubbish"? Interesting. Kobayashi was 3rd for most of the race after the safety car. You telling me he was the 3rd fastest driver out there?If Ferrari had genuine pace I think we would have seen it, ...

Bad luck, a lot of points dropped there.

My season is hitting stride now after a poor start, I'm up to 6th

Jordan Grand Prix Raw Pace: 7.5 They were fantastic for a team their size until the costs shot up in the early 2000's. From then on they struggled massively Driver Choice: 8.5 Jordan usually had some of the best pairings on the grid. Even when they were on their death bed they still had a stonger p...

Kobayashi - You can't keep a good man down. This man is chemically addicted to either triumph or disaster. Even more impressive from his dismal qualifying effort, he was incredibly fast, and pulled off the number 1 and 2 overtakes of the race in the space of the final lap and a half. Tremendous. Ba...

Well that was kind of a waste of time. Like, either you punish someone, or you don't. That's just a complete cop out really, and sets an ominous precident. While I see your point in this incident I think this sets a good precident. A 5 second punishment is pretty fair if none of the drivers were si...

Talking about commentators, Finnish commentators had somewhat blunder as well. When Hülkenberg retired and he got a radio message "Look for F", commentators were thinking it was referring to F-duct. I thought they were saying "Look for S" Then again it was like 11:30pm at the ti...

Schumacher regrets asking for better acceleration off the start line in Valencia.

An early prediction that The Circuit will win this award in the absence of any real racing. Hopefully I'll be wrong but let's be honest, this track should not be on the calendar.

Tealy

I had some hope it would be Michelin and we would get the 18' rims, forcing a degree of car re-design and potentially throwing everything on its head once again. Oh well... Might be wrong but I'm sure I heard someone on the BBC coverage at Montreal (May have been Ross Brawn) say that Michelin had a...

My weather prediction for Valencia is for the weather to not be crazy enough to make it a decent race. If England finish 2nd in our world cup group then their next game could clash with the race and if it was any other track I would record the football....

Don't give up on teams just because people haven't posted anything after a few days. I don't visit this forum anywhere near as much as I do the Paul Stoddart memorial forum and never got a chance to put my thoughts in on Ligier. And going back on topic... BAR Raw Pace - 6.5 Only really had one seaso...

"Our car's race pace was good enough for victory. Let's hope that, in the future, there won't be mistakes in pushing a button nor in lapping cars that put us at a disadvantage, because we've already gone though that." "Mistakes in pushing a button"? Is he blaming that jump start...

We already know that Kovalainen can't drive a good car. Referred to elsewhere as Fisichellitis. Still would say Hamilton looked poor trolling around at the back seemingly disinterested, which brings into question his attitude generally, as we saw in Turkey. Lewis would like us to believe that if Je...

Do you think we should have a category to cover a team's reliability as well? Stewart Raw Pace - 8.0 Very quick in all three years competing. For a team of their experience at the time their performance was incredible. Driver Selection - 7.5 Barrichello and Herbert were good fits for this team. I do...

Raw Pace - 7.5 He kept up with Vettel which is no mean feat. Strategic Ability - 5.5 A bit inconsistant, sometimes he would be right on the money but other times completely off. It didn't help that he was a rookie driver in a team with few experienced staff members. Personal Reliability - 5.0 He alm...

Just thought I would make the point here that we had a potential new member with some interesting information and we've managed to scare him away. This is the first time I have seen this forum do this but I don't want us to turn into other forums where everyone pounces on the newbies. We need to sto...

Webber to Ferrari? Typical. A month ago even Red Bull were iffy about keeping him. What if Massa suddenly gets it right and wins two on the bounce? Are team managers unable to look further than the present? Its like Toro Rosso-itis has spread to everybody else. What happens if Hispania have a coupl...

Tealy

Quickly on the spare car issue before my main point. I like that you get punished for mistakes like Alonso did, but I have to agree that if a Spa 98' were to happen we would look ridiculous without spare cars for the drivers to hop into. Plus a third car would give valuable track time to a young dri...

To me it seems that the rule that is being quoted has not been amended for this season's safety car line rule. The Australia 09' was more obvious because you wern't allowed to overtake before the line anyway. I really hope they clarify this rule now, I also hope that Mercades' appeal gets accepted b...

I agree with most suggestions excepting Alonso who I thought had a good day.

My vote is Barrichello for his immaturity in throwing his steering wheel onto the racing line after his crash. Very dangerous and he really should know better.

Sorry Phoenix have to disagree about the Force India's. They only beat the Toro Rossos in what was a high attrition race. 1. Alonso - Didnt do too much at the end of the race but what a drive in the first 15-20 laps to get himself right in the hunt for points. 2. Kubica - Kept up with Vettel when We...

Got to think Kobayashi and Senna will bin it pretty early in this race. If by some miracle it rains on Sunday then Massa could be in contention too.

Tealy

Well, the King is gone. And so is the modicum of speed they had in Barcelona. Disapointing on both counts. I wonder why Sauber are having such problems getting a sponsor deal, surely you would just lower the price until someone is interested (I would advertise on the Sauber if I could afford it) be...

Somewhat major news story of the week affecting the race itself: Higher Kerbs at Nouvelle and Swimming Pool, partial resurfacing of track Sounds good to me, but the drivers will have a fit when they realise they are going to have to bounce over these higher curbs to avoid hitting the new teams. Sho...

Mario if that is the case then that is an amazing creation. A brilliant idea that could be unstoppable on the faster tracks if they've solved the issues you mentionned at McLaren.
