Formula 1: Granddaddy Prix

[bob_gnarly]

any f1 fans lingering around? lewis takes pole in japan . surprising to see alonso trying to stick his head in ppl's plans

[Tyro1]

So first two races for the season have been pretty interesting.

Brawn out of the ashes of Honda, and making everyone go wtf?

Ferrari & McLaren - Struggling to catch up after developing right to the end of last system

Fast and Furious eco style KERS system going to come into play soon.

Rained out last night.

Should be an interesting year.

[Tyro1]

Red Bull 1, 2 Brawn 3, 4...

More rain, missed the race, but I'm happy to see Weber finish a race (and place 2nd) for a change.

[vanfragmeter]

f1 is good shit. should just make a car racing general section rather than f1... seeing as though the fan population isnt very large.

[Osmosis Jones]

brawn is raping pretty hard. good to see them on top.

[dhaddict 82]

yea, pretty interesting start to the season, hope brawn can keep winning, and red bull is starting to look dangerous

[Magsåvningsreserven]

being a honda fanboy from day, i was pretty fuckin stoked to see Brawn kicking arse, but like many have been saying i think when the other teams get their new diffusers, it could all change.

that said, I still think it's pretty amazing what Ross Brawn has done, and still expect them to compete for the title this year. Perhaps also Red Bull, Vettel is a great driver along with Kubica.

[dhaddict 82]

Button said today that the Brawn was lacking pace in qualifying, toyota's are light and rosberg's heavy, could be an interesting race

[Tyro1]

wtf is going on this year, with talks of scrapping KERS already, capping budgets to 33mil pounds, possibly 3 new teams... shit is all up in the air, plus the rear spoiler problems and appeals...

[Mr Waffles]

smooth race this morning. Kinda happy neither of the toyota boys got the win.

also, regarding the rest of the season. I think the other teams will catch up to brawn and toyota; just give it a little time. As much as I would love brawn or red bull to run away with it, I dont think that is going to be the case.

force india is still going to be trash though.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

forget ferrari, wtf is up with BMW? both cars came last out of the ones that finished.

[Mr Waffles]

i didnt see the beginning, but i think they just had a bad race. Kubica is better than bmw though and needs to jump ship.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

agreed, dude hasn't even scored a single point yet.

just noticed the best performing teams today were the ones with the split diffusers, but the commentator mentioned something about Ferrari having a big update in time for Barca so that could be something..

[dhaddict 82]

Yeah, i heard that too, ferrari will bounce back, but im still hoping brawn and red bull can stay on top, any ideas on where kubica would go?

[Osmosis Jones]

we need another Group B Rally racing class.. except applied to road racing.

No rules on how the car is made or what's in it.

[semaj]

spain practice session on speed right now if anyone interested.

[Mr Waffles]

qualifying now.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

jenson fucking button!!

wow, what a session. F1 is awesome again.

[Mr Waffles]

yeah, lot more un predictable now. was a good session

[Tyro1]

why are they so determined to fuck with the F1 formula next year? No refuelling? shit's turning into a joke.

This race may be interesting, watch for the use of KERS

[Mr Waffles]

Kers is lame. fucked my boy Vettal over the whole race. Race was pretty tame. I did like how Massa went down a couple pos. at the end.

[Magsåvningsreserven]

Damn Brawn are doing it man, so happy for them guys.

Ferrari are back in action, but yeah fucked Vettel's race again..

[KAME]

BRAWN is walking away with the championship!

What the hell is going on with McLaren?

[Magsåvningsreserven]

i love brawn and button are doing so well, but shit's getting boring

[rxtim]

cmon webber

[Tyro1]

webber with 3 podiums now?

what the hell is going on with the season?

[KAME]

why are they so determined to fuck with the F1 formula next year? No refuelling? shit's turning into a joke.

I have no idea. :confused: We'll find out soon if the FIA is going stick to their guns and ruin the sport for the sake of being more financially conscientious.

We don't need another GP2, and who the hell is going to supply engines if all the OEMs pull out? Cosworth?

[redX]

looks like they will be discontinuing KERS... haha fucking wankers shoulda never started with that green crap anyway.

racing isn't about being green, it's the exact opposite

[Mr Waffles]

it was kinda funny how the kers kept kovaliinen infront of barrichello for most of the beginning of the race. If vetal hadn't went a little wide at the very beginning he prolly would have won. Him, webber, and button were all running similar lap times.

getting boring now though.

[redX]

it's quite fascinating how during the qualifying everyone is split only by a second or two, but then in the race it's so different.

didn't see much of last weekends race cuz i had a massive hangover and was talking with my toilet =\
