Still no CB![rofl]

Still no CB![rofl]

He's about, maybe his misses is sitting in his F1 armchair?

**Thifiadardivy** · 06-08-2008, 01:23 AM

Oh, he did make a small one. Went off in one corner, but no spinning. Unlike the completely useless Ferrari drivers today. Lost count how many times Massa was pointing the wrong way. [rofl]

I am still counting [rofl]

He must be quite sick now

**induffike** · 06-08-2008, 01:25 AM

Hahahahh you guys crack me up

**ZenDers** · 06-08-2008, 04:54 AM

Just got back from Silverstone, what a great race!

I'm looking forward to watching my recording of the race... if only to be in the dry. [surrender]

**exiceJetLip** · 06-08-2008, 06:32 AM

how much did you pay drinks for the tickets ?

Not sure yet matey, a friend of mine bought them and still has to let me know how much I owe him.

I was in the club corner grandstand so I'm thinking roughly £150...

**bubbachew14** · 07-07-2008, 08:42 AM

Very entertaining race today.

Yes the Ferrari drivers may of had a harsh throttle mapping, but they knew it was going to be wet so why not change the mapping?

The fact that Hamilton was the only one of the top drivers not to spin the car, must say something for his car control or a sixth sense about grip levels.

**posimoka** · 07-07-2008, 09:38 AM

Lewis did spin the car once, but that was the only time, he dominated the field and there is no denying that, what a race too, action everywhere, sure the bitter Ferrari fans will cry but they cant always have it there own way.

**indocrew** · 07-07-2008, 10:21 AM

Kimi was not faster than Hamilton, he caught him a little then spun off. After that Hamilton was over 6secs a lap faster than the rest of the field on the same tyres and was tip toeing round as he didnt want to bin a career goal needlessly.

I wish they would have put some full wets on for the latter half of the race, Rubens was lightening fast compared to them and noone changed.

Brundell kept mentioning it and noone came back in to change.

You weren't watching very carefully then where you. Hamilton got a NEW set of inters at the first pit, the rest of the top teams KEPT the old inters on. Big difference as the ones who kept the old inters on where gambling it wouldn't rain heavily again, which was dumb I know.

Inters with worn down grooves = 6 secs slower than fresh inters in what is realistically FULL wet conditions as Ruben proved.

Just like everyone I did laugh everytime Massa spun, something was not right and he must have been really keen to see the end of the race.

Dont think i saw him spin, i did seem him do a bit of off roading though?

**Assunkkensatt** · 07-08-2008, 01:54 AM

[yes] You be right. Went off track for 30 or so metres, but didn't spin.

**TornadoPD** · 07-08-2008, 02:09 AM

Was there anyone who didn't run off the track yesterday though?

**induffike** · 07-08-2008, 02:56 AM

Barrichelo I think

**posimoka** · 08-07-2008, 10:10 AM

Trulli and Heidfeld too.

**medshop** · 08-07-2008, 04:16 PM

You know he could simply have had an impossible setup to drive, with an engine map that was far too touchy.You could see he couldn't even lean on the accelrator coming out of some corners without the rears snapping away.

For all we know he could of had the drive of the day given he never hit anything, Hamilton in the same car could have binned it into the nearest wall, or not.

That's why today's race I feel was ruined by the rain, F1 cars aren't designed to race in such conditions and as such each behave's very differently. Hamilton was alot slower than Kimi on the same tyres, so does tha mean Hamilton is a dud driver? Obviously no, so to say Hamilton was the superior driver today is also incorrect, if there was gravel and not grass he ran off into his day would have been just like a few other DNF drivers today.

Driver of the race? Who know's

wouldn't be much fun if conditions were always perfect and predictable, the strategy and gamle involved is half the fun.

**ZenDers** · 08-07-2008, 04:47 PM

He thinks the race in France was great and this blinding race was ruined by the rain, I'd just give up mate.

I'm from England so you're damn right I support Hamilton, deal with it.

**husartrof** · 08-07-2008, 06:16 PM

Anyone know where I can see a full repeat of the race? I was in Eurodisney with the kids and now I'm in France til Sunday, I've tried the ITV site but it wont let me veiw video as I'm not in the UK [cursing]

**indocrew** · 08-07-2008, 09:31 PM

Thanks for proving my point.

Anyone else wins by a mile, it's boring. Hamilton wins by a mile, it's the greatest race ever [rofl]

You are obviously too stupid to understand my original point, and don't understand why the race had more potential if it was a dry race.

And give up? Why the hell for, because some twit who has just started watching F1 said so?
