He totally has the full support from Flav!

Close Quote: It was a very, very, bad race. He's done if he doesn't get some results that aren't very, very bad.

I thought Michael Schumacher wrote that one.

He wrote the sequel.

I don't like Max that much but really, you gotta feel bad for him. He's been through a lot throughout the last few years and this is just pouring salt into the wounds. RIP Alex Mosley.

I vote for the FIA as ROTY if even more insanity is found. {tristan117 - previous post} How about the requirement that cost-regulated teams tell the FIA by December 15 of the year preceding competition who all their "key" staff, consultants, suppliers and agencies will be for the upcoming...

And the other two for 2009 will be Webber and Hamilton?

As long as they don't lie to the stewards.

That is a yucky regulation change. I missed it when writing about the changes in my blog, probably because I was still so miffed at the FIA shortening the entry window so that teams must sign up in the fourth week of May? Also, what's the betting that the change was not highlighted on purpose? F1 i...

I think they are the new Honda. They will get poles, podiums and everything else except wins for awhile. They will get one win from Timo GLock, then fold because of the bad economy. I have bought the movie rights to Toyota vs. Honda: Clash of the Kinda Unsuccessful (in F1) Japanese Car Manufacturors.

The return of low fuel qualifying is great news. Qualifying will mean something again. Also, the cars that are best on a full fuel load or have great race pace may not be the ones that are fastest on low fuel, so the race result should be different to the grid. Yeah!! remember in 2005 FIA tried out...

That was nearly twenty years ago, when you could mak the grid with just five hundred thousand dollars.

And no sponsors.

Now we'll see Pacific coming back. Maybe that's why their website hasn't been taken down.

Does Piquet's nose change during practice count as a point?

Vettel was one of my favorite drivers before this. Now he is my all time favorite active driver.

tristan1117

How can Piquet Jr. not have any spectacular spins! For the record, I saw that he blew up a Styrofoam sign! Those signs were having a bad day by the way, (rhyme, sorry) Piquet Jr. blew up one, Sutil knocked out another and there was just one standing!

tristan1117

You have got to love Williams! I'm just catching up with the race now. Three laps in, everyone behind SC, and Rosberg comes on the radio to say: - "Have aquaplaning on the straight. Aquaplaning on the straight". Now, if this was McLaren, the answer would be "understand, Nico". I...

tristan1117

Piquet is now surely going to be gone by Europe if he doesn't come on the podium in Bahrain. I mean, he went through how many wings? He spun more times then anyone could count. Even the US commentators were saying, "Nelson Piquet is one of those drivers who really needs to step up his game"...

tristan1117

Well, after seeing him be completely out done by his rookie teammate, finish 11th and still have 2 less points then Buemi means that the guillotine is just moments away. He needs to score some more points quick. HE was showing some signs of speed in the middle of the race but still has nothing to sh...

I can't believe nobody has mentioned the 1999 BAR "Zipper" livery: Lucky Strike on one side, 555 on the other, and what looked like a giant plastic zipper paintd yellow dividing the two of them. I have no idea how Villeneuve and Zonta managed to sleep at night while advertising two brands...

Nelson Piquet Jr... If he actually does well... In an alternate universe where Roberto Moreno gets a decent go at F1, this might happen! Well, he didn't do well at all. If you consider doing well spinning yourself dizzy he did great! He spun into the pitlane for goodness' sake. ROTR material for su...

tristan1117

Nelson Piquet Jr. He hasn't received a ROTR this year so far. I'm guessing he should get one before he is fired. If he actually does well, Flavio Briatore gets the Reject of the Race for his big mouth.

tristan1117

I'm guessing Flavio was talking about Button as slow as a concrete block and Barichello as nearly retired. I actually thought he was talking about Nelsinho Piquet Jr. myself!

tristan1117

I understand that he has a lot to put into account when he makes a circuit. However, he can make it a little more interesting. I mean tracks like Valencia can barely keep people awake. Istanbul Park was good, and that shows what he can do, and I always thought Shanghai was also good. I also understa...

tristan1117

I find it strange that that Michael Schumacher, 7 time World Champion is 2nd place on this leaderboard. I think it would it be hilarious if Schumi himself had another record: Most ROTR awards! I'm guessing that Fisi would pass him soon enough it that had happened.

Piquet Jr. and Kovaleinen take out a third of the field in separate first lap incidents that knock out both Force Indias, Bourdais, Nakajima, and about 6 other cars and both get fined an inordinate amount of money by the stewards which they can just as easily pay off, with a tip.

tristan1117

Here's my try: First the fly-away races: 1. South Africa-Kyalami 2. Australia-Bathurst 3. Malaysia-Sepang 4. Brazil-Interlagos I always liked it earlier in the season Then the European races pt.1: 5. Turkey-Istanbul 6. San Marino-Imola 7. Monaco 8. United Kingdom-Brands Hatch 9. Portugal-Portimao 10...

tristan1117

Well, granted the team had made a large improvement over 2007, getting their first win and coming a pretty respectable 3rd and best-of-the-rest honors in the Constructors Championship. I was rooting for Kubica and he still is one of the best younger talents in F1 along with Vettel, but through the l...

This is great!The press releases are especially good. I mean where else would you find these headlines? "MONTERMINI FINISHES DESPITE FIRST LAP INCIDENT" "GACHOT PRODUCES GOOD FINISH FOR PACIFIC" "JEAN-DENIS DELETRAZ (CH): Retired - severe cramp " Also, apparently they w...

This is a joke.

Ayrton Senna: 3 World Championships, 41 wins, 65 pole positions
Alex Yoong: 0 Championships, 0 wins, 0 pole positions, no points.
And they are in the same bracket!! Just typical ESPN ignorance. And as a postscript, Alex Yoong is one of their columnists.
