Quote from Intrepid :

He did a Hamilton on Alonso and a Schumacher on Hamilton. But he's Button 'coz it'd be wrong for him to lose the win' he won't get penalised.

Sorry precedents HAVE been set. If he doesn't get a penalty then Hamilton was right last time at Monaco... the stewarding is a joke.

I am not sure if we were actually watching the same race. Button didn't DIVE down the inside like Hamilton did in Monaco. He was alongside Alonso the whole time. Anyone who knows anything about racing would know you can't just turn into such a tight chicane when there is a car on the inside.

I don't understand how people can blame Button for the Button-Alonso collision. The one with Hamilton, maybe. But Button was alongside Alonso as they entered the braking zone for the chicane. Button was always going to be there when the enter the chicane. Alonso just turned in onto Button and hope Button has magically disappeared.

Quote from spankmeyer :

Vettel's been a lucky ducky for so many races so it was fun to see his sour face for a change. Killer race but the I could have watched the Inception during the intermission.

We could have had a full Grand Prix during the red flags. The red flags went for 2 hours.

Button definitely won't get a penalty for the collision with Alonso. He was up the inside and alongside Alonso throughout the whole braking zone. It was a racing incident.

As for the collision with Hamilton, Hamilton (and McLaren) will make sure Button doesn't get penalised.

Whoa that was a breathtaking finish. My heartbeat was up to 140 in the final few laps. All the fingers-crossing finally paid off! (I was rooting for Vettel.... to crack under the pressure :P)

Hamilton just said on the BBC interview he thought he was half a car length next to Button.

He wasn't. His right front touched Button's left rear.

Quote from pearcy_2k7 :

What are you going on about? Assuming Button knew he was there he should have chose either inside or outside line, you can't just drive your normal line when theres a car on the outside of you.

The way I see it is Hamilton was CLEARLY faster than Button at that stage. Button simply wasn't expecting Hamilton to try to go around the outside especially Button was on the normal line, and the fact that Button couldn't see out of his mirrors wasn't helping either. Hamilton was way too far behind to try and drive out the outside. If he was half a car length further up, then Button would be at fault. But Hamilton was too far back.

Obviously I am not Hamilton, but if I was him I would have stayed on Button's tail and nail Button into the inside of T1.

IMO Hamilton is too agressive when it comes to overtaking. You need to know when and where to overtake. You can't just stick your nose up next to someone and expect someone to jump out of the way.

I am a big Button fan. But I really don't know who's at fault :S

Hamilton went for a spot that is always going to disappear, but Button didn't give him any room. :S and Button is really struggling with front end grip.

Well the old Z34 thread is gone so I am expecting a patch to come out soon.

Good to see LFS making some progress.

Is it just me or everything is getting hacked lately?

G27? Apparently the new Thrustmaster T500 is pretty good too.

I am so sick of all the BF3 vs MW3 "discussion" on the internet. It's like Windows vs Mac again. Especially when they are always so damn agressive when "discussing" which one is better. They are two different games, and no one is forcing you to buy it. Is it that hard to just play whatever you like? *sigh* I can't discuss anything MW3/BF3 related with my friends on facebook without someone chiming in and make some rude comments about "Blah blah blah is better".


oh btw. the new 3D tv split screen from Sony is AWESOME. finally a reason to buy a 3D tv?

1. Honda NSX-R
2. Ferrari F40
3. Lamborghini Aventador
4. Pagani Zonda Cinque
5. Ariel Atom V8
6. BMW M3
7. Range Rover
8. McLaren MP4-12C
9. Mercedes C63 AMG
10. Audi R8

After playing this game, I have the upmost respect for all rally drivers out there. (not that I didn't have any respect for them before)

It's is SO hard to pay attention to the road, listening to the pace notes (i can't keep up with it AT ALL) and concentrate on the driving at the same time. I like to consider myself to be at least decent in road racing, but I am just absolutely horrible at this game. I am driving with my eyes, instead of using both eyes AND ears. :S

Any tips?

Quote from Hyperactive :

Eric deserves all the criticism in the world for not getting anything done for 5 years now. Iracing has released tons and tons of content during the 3 years. Your comparison is just totally unjustified and just plain misleading.

You do realise iRacing has a whole team of developers, while LFS only has three developers right?

ohh. and the money too.

thanks mate.

Alright I finally got my copy.

I got a question regarding the new mods. I found the RSRBR 2011 update. Can I just install the update pack 5? or do I have to go back and install update 1,2, and 3?

Quote from PMD9409 :

Tire model allows you to abuse the car to go fast. In essence it ruins it and makes it seem like a pile of trash.

lol i dont know. It's just I just find it really hard to keep it in a straight line. You know that little kink at the start of the pit straight after the last corner at Silverstone? I have to be really easy otherwise I would just spin out :S

Quote from baSh0r :

lol thanks mate.

Thanks. I tried Amazon but they won't ship outside of the US. and I thought maybe there is somewhere I can buy and download online.

Quote from jrd.racer :

You should like the v8s.

Hi Andy!

The V8 is a b***h to drive. It's very frustrating to drive.

Or maybe Im just not a good enough driver.

Quote from squelch :

bbc:
Lewis, why do think you're such a steward magnet?

Lewis:
Maybe it's coz i'm black.

:jawdrop:

hahahhaahahha cant believe i missed that!

Anyone know where I can buy this game?

Quote from E.Reiljans :

Use handbrake on approach of donut thingy, then, steer like your car is understeering (dam physics).

Yeah I tried that and most of the time I just end up losing control :S

ps. They need to have more rally stages.

and where can I buy Richard Burns Rally? I heard its the best rally sim out there.
