Tazio Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Jesus H Christ. 19 points for that debacle. Could have been 14 but I got pole right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazio Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Excellent to see Di Resta picking up points again and showing that he is a great driver. Clearly one of the bigger teams will be after him if he keeps this up, maybe even Sauber He's doing OK but the other teams will also have been keeping tabs on drivers like Perez and Maldonado who have been doing well in staking claims for a step up.

Sten Guns Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Pretty blatant - do not overtake Ferrari order to Perez!!! Dodgy.. THIS! Please do not overtake our engine suppliers! Plus Perez miraculously goes off one of the dry corners! Miraculously it was one with a nice big bit of tarmac to run off in to. Thus keeping him in the race, with Alonso too far ahead to pass. The same Perez who is replacing Massa at Ferrari!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably next year but most likely in place of Schumi. Rosberg needs to get his finger out though. I'm up 4 places to 8th though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Schumacher brings more to Mercedes than just his racing, and he does not bad at that, think he's out raced and out qualified Rosberg more often than not.

Yeah I agree but he is getting old. Couple that with a car that won't win the championship and maybe not even races then he could retire again. I think a Merc will win this season and most likely him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prince Buaben Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Sebastian Vettel is a cry baby, says Narain Karthikeyan Narain Karthikeyan has described world champion Sebastian Vettel as a "cry baby" for criticising the Indian driver after the Malaysian Grand Prix. Vettel called Karthikeyan an "idiot" after they collided as the Red Bull man was lapping Karthikeyan's HRT. The incident cost Vettel fourth place. Speaking to the Hindustan Times, the 35-year-old Karthikeyan described Vettel as "unprofessional". He added: "For a world champion to say things like that is really shameful." Vettel ended up finishing 11th in Malaysia after dropping down the field with damage caused in the collision with Karthikeyan. The result leaves the man, who has won the title for the last two years, sixth in the championship, 17 points adrift of the leader, Ferrari's Fernando Alonso. In German, Vettel used the word "gurken" - cucumber - to describe Karthikeyan's driving - a common insult used about bad drivers on the road. Karthikeyan said: "It is really unprofessional. For a driver who has achieved so much to take out his frustrations on me just because he is having a difficult year is really sad. "One does not expect a professional sportsman to be such a cry baby." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smack Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Sebastian Vettel is a cry baby, says Narain Karthikeyan I hadnt realised that Karthikeyan got a 20 second penalty after the race for causing a collision. Seems harsh. And apparently the literal translation of what Vettel called him was a "cucumber". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tazio Posted April 15, 2012 Share Posted April 15, 2012 If Rosberg or Schumi get a good start and the rest of the grid stays roughly in order they have a good chance as the faster teams need to get past Raikkonen and Kobayashi to catch them. Not an easy task at the best of times. I also think Mercedes tactic will be if Rosberg gets away first then Schumacher will develop a very wide car.

Inspector Rex Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 All three races so far have been top notch. The great thing is that we've had three races, three different winners - and none of them are leading the championship, Hamilton is. It's gonna be a hell of a season.
