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.

If i understand correctly did you just call him stupid ?

Just trying to make this thread interesting to the lowest common denominator, given the posters in this thread are mostly English

[ZenDers]

Turns out I like it when Lewis wins, the driver I support! Stop the press! The ******* aussie knob jockey is proving his point!!!

Why don't you **** you off you ex-con ****.

Nice drive by Webber BTW.

[Thifiadardivy]

Does bring more fun to this thread
BTW i like (support) Lewis to , maybe he will call me stupid/twit to

Not a convict, my family was among the unlucky ones who had to pay to leave England

Yep Webber had a bad race like everyone else, but then I didn't stop watching because of this. Ups and downs of F1 really, abit like outpacing Lewis in a Red Bull in the same conditions and tyres the day before.

[ZenDers]

The thing is though, it's you that has got into into your head that people only care if Lewis wins, and whilst that is clearly true for us Brits, it certainly wasn't the reason I found France boring and this weekends race great.

It's quite simply becuase the race in France was boring, and this race... wasn't.

No hidden agenda, no blind love for Lewis, just my opinion.

[posimoka]

canberraKarter is just bitter about Ferrari and Webber having a bad race, if that was a Ferrari win or Webber didn't be a noob and spin the car and got a good result he would say it was a great race! just enjoy the racing, was the best race of the season in terms of action, something F1 has been missing over the last few years.

[indocrew]

God here we go again.

Yeah I'm watching F1 because of all the success Webber has had [rolleyes]

Comments like yours about Webber being a noob also don't give credit to your knowledge.

I thought it was a great spectacle, but that's all it was, watching drivers trying to drive uncontrollable cars. Great if you don't follow F1 closely or only watch because you like crashes.

And FYI I have been watching F1 well before Webber came along, and don't like Ferrari but do like Rubens.

And F1 has had great action the last two years so I don't know what the hell you are talking about their. Last year before the last race was the closest it's been for... well ever I'd say, with 3 drivers all able to win the drivers championship.

I thought Lewis did a fine job of controlling his car

And so did Rubens, I was sitting at club corner and on the full wets he was amazing through there.

These are supposed to be the best drivers in the world so they should be able to cope just fine, and to be fair, most of them did. It helps if your on the right tyre though, and better yet if you actually change the worn ones when you come into the pits.

haha cool, same with my family so your not the only one who gets to use the same excuse

[ZenDers]

As far as I can tell in London, most of you have paid to come back. [surrender]

I don't think he was around in the days when F1 cars could overtake each other in normal dry conditions. Last year was a great battle for the title but most of the races where boring as hell with very little if any overtaking due to the dirty air coming from the cars, Canada was good but the other races it had to rain to make them a proper enjoyable race to watch. Rain is the only time in today's F1 cars where the drivers really come into play and big surprises happen, when it's dry it's just the usual top 3 teams and top 6-7 drivers up there and not much chance of the drivers being able to overtake each other due to the dirty air and it's why rainy races are so enjoyable to watch because there is a hell of allot of action and cars overtaking. Getting rid of TC and the rest of the aids has helped the racing this year but next year when the aero parts will be removed and slick tyres are used we should be able to see drivers being able to overtake each other on track in a dry race properly thus not be hoping for a raining race every grand prix [rofl]

[Grennios]

I wish the FIA would increase the rules as to how tough certain components could be - it would be nicer to see F1 cars being able to withstand anything more than a minor knock before breaking down into tears and carbon bits.

[indocrew]

stuff

I think you may have a failing memory. During the downforce era, in which fantasy year did the top 6th driver's overtake each other for wins [rofl]

Only during the non downforce era, when someone like Jack Brabham could own, run and drive for the team, could you get packs of drivers fighting for win at drafting tracks like Monza. Even then close races where just as rare as the nowdays, as the fastest car usually qualified first.

Sure racing in the wet usually makes a better race, but this weekend Silverstone didn't need it.

And if it rains in qualifying, then expect the F1 cars to handle much better in the rain, as they will be set up for it. Unlike last race, where they had to run a dry setup from qualifying and could only dial in some front wing and change tyre pressures.

[exiceJetLip]

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...

Oooo

I would love to go one yr, but cant justify paying that much for watching 20 cars going past you 60 times in a few seconds lol

[8jIDXQ80]

great race, i was in club b watching best race of the season so far. got the best corner action wise as well i think

not see the crowds reaction though when he won after which is a shame
