Wow even beating Louis Hamilton in Quali!

Well with Kimi u know what u will get i gues with the advantages u describe, but i would still prefer the young up and coming over Kimi who is not gonna make a alot of mistakes but also on the long term does not have the potential to grow into the next Schumacher/Alonso. Also when Kimi and Felipe were teammates at ferrari they were pretty even if u look at both seasons. So would it be an improvement over Massa?

I don't see Grosjean as a talent, i think he has had plenty of chances and is not F1 material. There are better guys knocking on the door. The likes of Bianchi, Magnussen, Da Costa, Frijns and Carlos Sainz, heck i even think Pic is better.

As for your Massa comment i think u are spot on, actually i think it's the same way with Grosjean at Renault..

Why would Ferrari want Raikkonen, they got Bianchi who will do it for 10 times less money and is better (indeed my opinion).

I don't see Alonso leaving Ferrari, if he wants to go into the history books like the greatest ever or something close to that he can't afford to leave a struggling team. Schumacher joined ferrari and gave them feedback for them to build a better car, he did not leave them cause they were too slow.

Who is next to suffer puncture, place your bets!

My gues: Ricciardo

Congrats to the winner btw. A Rookie showing how it's done.

Firstly i would like to say sorry to Deko for loosing my temper, the entire race was just agony with the level of racing and in that moment i just lost it.

I would say the problem is there are too little people interested to race the 500. In the past some drivers who u don't want to see on a day like today were shifted out. Now it's like we let anyone race to keep the numbers up.

I think this will be my last 500 i took part it, cause i don't expect it to get better in time, unless some new content might attract a lot more people back into lfs.

tentative confirmation, i should be back in time but maybe not

Yes i know it's 2013, but nobody will notice on the track.

*Watches 07 review again.

Nope.

They were also teammates in 2008 and as u can see not much between them.

Quote from Mustafur :

I would say Kimi is still probably equal best driver on the grid with Alonso.

Grosjean is making Kimi look better then he really is.. Kimi is more like at Massa level and lucky to be in what is probably the best car of the field.

Also his passes on the last laps was mainly cause he had fresh tyres and a better car than the people in front of him. But ofcourse he deserves the credit he got for those moves.

Mild penalty for Grosjean, only a 10 place grid penalty for the next race. (If the team not replaces him)

Quote from EliteAti :

Amateur.

LOL u can see Boullion thinking..

It is hard to tell if it was a kamikaze move, kimi blocked it before we could see the outcome. He did a great pass on Alonso previously so who knows..

Im glad Perez at least tried to make a pass, it was the usual boring Monaco stuff.

Who will replace Crashjean next race?

Have they solved the tyres issues from last year? Or is it gonna be epic last laps again?

80% chance i'll be there.

Quote from CrAZySkyPimp :

You are one mad Hamilton fan And dawesdust, first you steal my avatar now you steal my opinions aswell? Get out

And u are a happy Raikkonen fan? I know... silly argument.


Mercedes is close to a solution. All they got to do is give NIKI a call, he seems to have it all figured out.

Yes Deko it's always been about managing the tyres, but nowdays it's only about managing the tyres and strategy.

The thing that bugs me is the fact people at certain parts of the race drive the car at 80 % of it's limit. In the past u had the men seperating from the boys by going full trottle into a challenging corner, nowdays it's the one that saves his tyres best and has the best strategy that wins. I prefer the first.

Quote from N I K I :

How's it overtaking on the outside with tire lock from Massa into that hairpin, twice not pushing to the limit.
Not all of the drivers were told to save tires, top 3 certainly weren't, nor would Vettel had he been not taken a safe way out. The only driver that can save tires is Kimi and it's clearly obvious why when you watch him onboard. Let's be honest some cars just simply suck and are stuck in old fashioned thinking of driving the entire race over the limit.
Alonso showed how it's done and personally this is the best season F1 has since 2008 aerodynamics were banned in terms of racing, challenge in every area of car development and drivers skill.

And overtakes are also beautiful, nothing like a straight pass in middle of the straight, unless some driver really sucks at that moment and is like two seconds off pace, which is what you would expect really.

This is by far the best Barcelona race. It just can't be better than this at Barcelona!

I can appreciate a bit of tyre saving, but like hamilton said on the radio, ''i can't go any slower'' and u could clearly see it on all onboard shots drivers going extremely slow in the corners it is just going too far at the moment.

And what is interesting about artofficial DRS overtakes where the pass is done even before getting at the braking point?

I want to see drivers pushing themselves and theire cars to the limit. This is just getting rediculous. Also DRS brought much more overtaking, but not the kind of overtaking i'd like to see. F1 is on the wrong path if u ask me. Also i think this whole f1 adventure is just damaging the reputation of Pirelli, i mean i don't want that shit under my car.
