2011 Formula 1 season thread
Ok I know there are fans of the great sport of F1 in here so get in here. If not, the forum will have to withstand a lot of posts from me to me.
Oz qualifying begins in 45 mins. Pretty excited right now. |

lol this random presenter from Sky Sports 1 is talking in the pit lane while the engines are being tested. Couldn't hear a single thing from his mouth for over 10 minutes.

Nah, Was pretty disappointed to see Barachello pull that shit, and to see Schumacher go out. Am looking for a huge season from Mercedes this year.
Red Bull didn't even use their KERS from what I hear, so they are going to be brutal, and perhaps impossible to beat this season. |

Not just Red Bull, but Vettel just seems to think he is undefeatable himself and that's helping him.
Put £10 on Mercedes to win the constructors just after their upgrade. Kinda wishing I hadn't now. That Renault looks fast and I'm happy for Petrov, but wish Kubica could get his hands on it. |

Thread is not a mistake. Bring on Turkey. Would pay for some Red Bull shit to happen again to spice stuff up.

So is Australian cricket, what's new?
Fucking Vettel seems pretty invincible at this stage now. He might challenge Schumi ala 2004. |

You guys think Schumacer should still be racing? i mean he hasn't done anything notable since he's been back.

If Vettel ever manages to conquer Spa convincingly, I will respect him. Only Schumi and Kimi have done it in the last decade.
As far as Schumi goes, what other options are really there? He is just not in the best car so you can't really compare him to the RBR drivers. |

It will only be providing info to the leaders. If the rain doesn't pick up, they got ample time to pit and do a tire change.

Dunno, he's only 2 Renaults behind Alonso right now, who haven't pitted and ahead of Rosberg no.

And as I post that, it gets heavy and Button starts aquaplaning. Fucking hell this weather.
Alonso and Button had to go back on the wets though. |

He hasn't done a pit stop yet though, depending on how long the safety car is out he may well be a major player in this race.

There we go, red flag. No more pointless laps cruising around.
Does mean Kobyashi can now get some fresh tyres too. |

The pre-race thing with Vettel and Schumacher by Coulthard was funny. Meh, prefer it on BBC loads more than ITV.
Hamilton's head is all over the place lately. |

I miss my coverage on ESPN-Star Sports with the hot Paula Malai Ali but I will take Coulthard as my next option.

It's coming up to 3 o clock there. The only thing that will stop the race is light because their radars are saying it should be cleared up in about 20 mins.
