[Closed] F1 Spoiler content

Carnage race!

Why though? Does he get red mist sometimes? He was inches from tangling into the wheel gun lines.

Predict a penalty for Hamilton, crossing the white lines on the way IN to the pits.

Charlie Whiting wont take kindly to racing in the pit lane! 🙂

Oh Lewis....mate

just what i was thinking

things seems to "happen" round him. all sorts of things!

crossing the white lines on the way IN to the pits.

twice!!

I wouldn't be surprised if they disqualified his points/race.

Jensen's made another good call re: slicks (so far.....)

2 for 1 offer Sir?

Loved Hamilton's "Sir look what he's doing" hand waving when Vettel was squeezing him on the way out.

For all his faults, F1 would be alot worse off without Hamilton. The guy's pure box office.

that schuey ding dong was ace

F1 Spoilers....

erm, them's front wings them is.

all the best races involve rain!

F1 overtaking shock 😀 crazy race so far.

Alonso on Massa WTF? For clown move of the race

'seizing the initiative'

taking no prisoners

Throwing a handgrenade into your team....

Or have you read Alonso's new book 'Relationships; How not to make friends with those special people in your life'

there's a very annoyed massa apparently....

For all his faults, F1 would be alot worse off without Hamilton. The guy's pure box office.

Definitely.

Crackin' race so far!

What just happened there at the restart, I was busy googling Borat?

Button backed them all up, i missed it as was typing my last post!

What happened with alonso and massa? I missed it due to a pesky 2yr old! No replay yet

Webber telling tales, bet all the cool kids hated him at school.

We need more of Alex Wurz advising the stewards 😆

Funky, Alonso barged in across the lines/grass 'just' before the pitlane entrance- it was mental.

One thing that gets on my t**ts. Brundle loving Hamilton. If you listen to Brundle. Hamilton can't do anything wrong. He even had the rule book out about Button bunching the drivers. Whereas he's now just tried to justify Hamilton shunting Webber off under the safety car...

Lets put MSC is a more competitive car, that will make it even more interesting, how many pit stops can they fit into one race?

catnash, whats not to love about the guy? I'd like to see Button prove himself wheel to wheel soo much in a race.

Oh right, ta hora.
There is a lack of replays this week!
Was webber taking hamilton or other way around just before the start?

Vettel squeezed Hamilton who turn had to squeeze Webber and contact was made

Lets put MSC is a more competitive car

what, like the one running in second place?

Yeah, saw it happen, but somebody must have overtook somebody else before the first start line.

Ah, brundle just explained it. First safety car line before the corner

vitaly petrov's mum/PA loves getting on the telly doesn't she?

Got to agree with sockpuppet, mschas been very disappointing so far this year

Pook thats his wife !!!!!!!!! (He ain't no looker either 😉 )

Pook, say what really was on your mind then please 😉

whats not to love about the guy

He has no redeeming features.

vitaly petrov's mum has got alistair darling eyebrow syndrome.

I think what ever result Lewis gets will be scrubbed once the FIA look at the incidents 😯

I'm fearing that bigsi

Don't see why, if anyone is guilty of forcing cars off and causing accidents, it's webber.
In general like, not today specifically

TFM - Because the FIA don't like McLaren,,, look at the history books 🙄

Plus racing in the pitlane is a BIG no no, and rightly so.

The pitlane incident was totally 50/50 tho. Hamilton should have backed out, but vettel should not have squeezed him either. Both released at the same time so the release gap can't be applied.
I'm sensing things might be a bit different with regard to penalties this year. Still would prefer it to be decided during the race though, with racers advising the numnuts

Is it just me who thinks its been a dull race?

Or is it just the modern tracks that are dull? Also a few people have been off that would have been out of the race if it was a proper track.

not dull imo, quite interesting really with some good (and bad) tyre calls.

however, you can't claim that the interesting race has anything to do with the track. it's because of the rain!

I think it's been pretty good so far.
All the newer tracks have large tarmac run off areas now in place of gravel and barriers. I reckon it's a good thing though.
Wonder how many of the new boys will finish at monaco next month?

So we've had the most boring race in F1 history, followed by 3 good ones because of rain.
Come on bernie, you know spinklers make sense!

legard is useless

yeah more sprinklers!
some nice skill on display out there
legard + button...the only 2 people who inject any fun at all 🙂

I really wish i'd gone for force india instead of sauber and petrov instead of kobayashi in my fantasy team!

[i]Is it just me who thinks its been a dull race?
[/i]

Errr - which race have you been watching!!!!

Absolutely cracking race. Action from start to finish.

....anyway where are the Moto GP fanboys!

Moto GP fan here and happy to say it was a great race, shame it has to be wet to bring any excitement into it. Would it have been as much fun if it was dry? How hot is Buttons girlfriend?

Smoking hot, well done to button. Be interesting to see hat happens with Hamilton, his position this race should be ok. Howmany people did hamilton have to over take. Wonder by how much button ould of won by if there was no second safety car, which seemed totally rediculous to me.

Hamilton and Vettel only got a reprimand for their antics in the pit lane.

i didnt think it has been announced yet what the decision is

Says they have just been reprimanded on the FIA site, I suspect there will be more clarification of the rules soon.

Jesus one F1 race that has some excitement and you start on about Moto GP - what a laugh. Take the rain out of it and it would have been a dull race again.

Good decision really. They were both at fault though.
As above, I think the next drivers briefing will be a long one!

Back from my Rivi spin:

But Red Bull's Vettel said: "I don't know why he was keen to touch me."

Nice soundbite then Vettel

i feel asleep watching the last Moto GP, F1 kept me awake today and i was watching it from bed

Petrovs missus is a bit quirky, but i would

[i]Jesus one F1 race that has some excitement and you start on about Moto GP - what a laugh. [/i]

...make that 3 out of 4!

And the first Moto GP race was exactly as I suspected - loads of 'after you, after me' overtaking for 20odd laps, then a bit of real action in the last 2! 😉

Good race that. Button the 'decisionmeister' again!

Laminate is dangerous; it's only a matter of time before he causes a big crash, with possible death/s. He's a brilliant driver, but he's too hot-headed. I'd be amazed if he gets away without any sort of penalty; the pit lane thing with Vettel, McLaren released him into Vettel's path.

British 1-2, with a British constructor. When did that last happen (if ever?)?

Mind you, Laminate might be American, judging by his 'accent'.... 🙄

Not sure ho laminate is though..... So what did hamilton do wrong today

When an F1 overtaking move can ever touch the move Rossi put on Stoner at the corkscrew at Laguna Seca then I will concede 😉

Do you all still reckon Rosberg is crap & not a match for his team mate then?

That'll be 4 out of 4 qualis & 4 out of 4 races that he's beat him 😀

IMO the only incident in that race that required the stewards to act was Alonso's jump start
The Hamilton/Vettel incident in the pits was a bit naughty but nothing too bad, they weren't racing - as they are both doing exactly the same speed - they were vying for position

[b]they weren't racing [/b]- as they are both doing exactly the same speed - [b]they were vying for position[/b]

Ah yes - not really racing at all then....

Ah yes - not really racing at all then....

hell no, not in the normal sense anyway 🙂
The stewards need to ease off a bit - which they did

I love Hamilton, he is my favourite driver to watch in F1, but he does seem a little Petulant/Impulsive at times, I think that may well be a common flaw in the ultra competitive. There is no doubt he is aggressive, however that’s not a bad thing in a sport often criticised for being a tad boring. I love watching him carve through the field.

I do want to see his entrance to the pit when he allegedly overtook Vettel, I was under the impression he was in front of Vettel before going into the pit? If he wasn’t its a little naughty in my book.

Jenson Button was immense, not my favourite driver to watch if I’m honest. You have to say though he clearly is miles ahead of some in keeping a cool calm head under difficult conditions.

Alonso staggers me, I can’t believe how cheeky his overtake on his teammate was. If I was Massa id be kicking off over that. I’d like to think Ferrari would have a quite word in his ear about that one.

From the angle I saw Hamilton was in front but left too much room & Vettel popped up the outside
All fair as far as I'm concerned - you race until the pit lane speed limit marker

you go[/url]

[url=

one's pretty good too, final lap of the best grand prix I've ever seen[/url]

Granted though, that race at Laguna Seca was awesome.

Alonso finished only a few seconds after Button, in the end. Take away the jump start and drive-through penalty, and he might have won the race.

Nice to see there's no Laminate bias here... 😉

Vitaly Petrov's mum is quite sexy, I reckon, in a kind of 'prim schoolteacher' kind of way.

Imagine her in a nice blouse, and a modest skirt, and you're wondering if she's wearing tights or stockings....

I'm going to have a little lie down now.

It's for the best

[i]Alonso finished only a few seconds after Button, in the end. Take away the jump start and drive-through penalty, and he might have won the race.[/i]

What a peculiar thing to say...All sorts of things could have happened, any one of Vettel, Webber, Rosberg, Hamilton, Alsono could have won... But they didn't...what's your point?

Whats this 'Laminate' about? I must have missed something.

I'll explain: early one morning, after a particularly heavy night, I was watching the F1, and saw on the screen
'L. Hamilton', and somehow my brain saw 'Laminate'.

Don't ask why. I have no idea how my diseased, tortured feeble little mind works at the best of times.

I could have won. So what's [i]your[/i] point? 😀

Fair enough:)

Well in that case, i am slightly biased slightly towards Hamilton, but then don't we all have a little bias?
