Haha, very bad work from him, absolutely appalling, no idea what he was trying to gain there.

I feel sorry for Maldonado, he was having a decent race and was doing a good job at holding him back before the restart/incident


and holy shit do Williams need those points

Yea, absolutely shitcunt thing to do, then to defend his actions is just bad.

Should have his points taken from him and given to Maldonado.

Get in there Websy!

EDIT: Will also be interesting to see how Paul Ricciardo does. If he can get 23rd then I would say that's a huge success, however I'd say his goal for the race will be to finish.

All AMW needs is a start similar if not better than his last start and he should be fine.

Highly recommend downloading the altest ep of Top Gear simply because it has Vettel in it and he does as well in this ep as he does in every F1 race.

Rest of the episode is crap.

I declare this the Spork F1 thread, wtf happened to all you peeps who used to post in here?

Also, 24 laps of Nurburg so far = 24 best laps of F1 this season.

Doubt it will work, however Australia's channel one (sports channel) stream all the F1 races.

http://one.com.au/motorsport-live-streaming.htm

Decent quality as well, and it never crashes - and while it has ad breaks - most of that ad time is not used.

Fuck - Felipe Massa is paying $60 to win the Indian GP. Now i'm the first one to bag that little gaybar loiterer, but those odds are crazy considering how competitive the Ferrari has been in the last few races. For those of you who can't stomach that, you can get a bit of action at 12's on a podium finish.

The best thing about Finance Minister Bill English\'s latest Budget is that it does finally signal a much greater role for the private sector in the New Zealand economy. And another step along the way to extract this country from the political cul-de-sac in which Helen Clark\'s Labour Government parked us.

Wow you have issues, do you really have to shit on almost every sportsman you don't like. There's also a reason he is paying so much, the Ferrari still doesn't have the pace of either the McLarens or the Red Bulls, and Massa certainly isn't driving like he is going to win a race anytime soon.

Ferrari + hard pirellis do not work at all.

I'd bet on both red bulls and one of the mclarens (probably button) for the podium

Mrs Tofu came up with an interesting theory - that Button performs better outside Europe than he does in. If i get some time i'll do a bit of analysis and see if it stacks up.

Brundle: Well that wasn't the best lap of Felippe Massa's career, that's for sure.
*snigger*
Wow, this was Brundle in 2008 and Massa hasn't improved a jot in the meantime. Next time i get a stupid idea like backing him at outrageous odds, i'll look back through this thread and remind myself what a crap driver he is.

Hahaha, Massa, but to be fair I don't think it was his fault that the corner snapped his suspension or what ever, looks like a huge flaw on the circuit, as it was obviously causing problems in qualy as well.

Indeed utter shit driver Massa is isn't he, I mean he only lost the championship by 1 point to Hamilton but complete utter trash. So hows your driving skills?
