- and his pace was staggering at the end. Where the hell did that sort of performance come from - and, for that matter, the confidence; he was really wringing the neck of his car. Remember Mclaren gambling on a wet set up for qualifying? They had much more down force than anyone else; and in the da...

Anybody who loves this sport should not be surprised by its ability to totally destroy itself at times.

And Bernie has again pushed the envelope when it comes to idiocy!!!!

Chewie

Geri Halliwell obviously.....

Bernie - the top man doesn't bother to go to the first race of the season? At least HRT turned up you evil pixie!!!! Heidfeld - Apart from the front two teams; every other driver would love to give that car a go! and bloody Heidfeld gets to show just how plodding he can be in a potetially winning ca...

On a further beyond the headlines note, did anyone notice a Mercedes at all today? Did they forget to set their alarm clocks this morning? To be fair to them, both cars were shunted out of the race by piss poor moves by other drivers; no pace themselves mind but hardly their fault that they went ho...

But surely that isn't a KERS system? if all it consists of is a battery that they charge in the pits to give them a boost off the line it surely goes against the idea of KERS. It doesn't use brake force to charge the battery so isn't recovering any kenetic energy at all I think they charge it like ...

Chewie

Also, there is an interesting rumour now floating around about Red Bull's KERS system which might explain why Vettel didn't use his KERS, and why Webber was so reluctant to talk about it when asked why he didn't use it either. Asides from some very interesting pictures from Darren Heath of the Red ...

They'd have used the new car, but it would have been beaten by the saloon car! or broken down!

Political protests and civil unrest at a hated ruling party will mean the cancellation of the British GP. Alonso will cheat, or lie, or cry or something; anything to win. Rubens will have a great season but crash on lap 1 in Brazil. Jenson and Lewis will end the season absolutely hating each other! ...

I think AndreaModa is referring to things like football and cricket which are pre-dominantly shown on Sky , which you have to pay (I think) 30 pound a month to sign up to, or on ITV where you have simply appalling commentators and pundits. Sports coverage on the BBC is certainly not as good as it u...

I'll agree the Red Button service is a good one, but when you live in a rural area where signal is often poor, or you don't even have digital yet, then it might as well not exist. My point is this, sports that have always held higher regard within the upper echelons of British society have always b...

Chewie

Exactly, and it's this same bullshit perception that continues to pervade the BBC in this modern age where stuff like Top Gear is actually postponed for live snooker coverage, and sports such as MotoGP are confined to the digital 'Red Button' service whilst golf gets wall-to-wall coverage. Golf has...

Expect then the Ferrari Fiat .......... Fiat has had it's name on Ferrari F1 cars since the 80s, and also TATA now. So we have :- Ferrari Fiat TATA Renault Lotus Lada Red Bull Infiniti Renault so multiple car maker involvement seems the way to go. just waiting for the VW group to buy into Williams ...

Chewie

So we have one team called Renault that looks like a Lotus, but we will have to call it Renault; not to be confused with the other Lotus-Renault,.... and the World championship winning team that use Renault engines but are now called Infiniti engines.

8 million quid I'm guessing, free money really as the engine is still the 2011 Renault but has a new badge. 8 Million to wear a badge? who wouldn't?

Chewie

..........it's Datsun aparently!!!! Or Infiniti if you prefer. All the Renault stickers are being removed tomorrow, and the engines will have a grinder taken to the Renault logos so that every thing can be rebranded Infiniti. Red Bull get the engines for free, Nissan get to promote the premium brand...

I only recently watched the Le Mans Silk Cut Jaguars on YouTube; and genuinely cried as they crossed the line.

For that I'll always remember TWR, and as a Jaguar fan also remember his BTCC XJS cars.

Thanks Tom.

It's just an elaborate ruse to prove that his comments about the attempted robbery of Jenson in Brazil being just as likely in London.....

The white one, with a funny font around a comedy muscular arm?

I saw it on Newey's shirt and the race overalls, then noticed everyone was wearing them.

Can anyone tell me what they were and what they said?

Bernie Ecclestone because....................

..........do I need a specific reason?

15" or 18"?

I seem to remember they wanted to run bigger rims; anyone know if that will be the case?

I'm actually going to say Schumacher . It was a nasty accident with Liuzzi, but his spin was just caused by the kind of overexubrance on cold tyres he should really know better than. I'm sure that when he sees the replays and realises he is lucky to still have a head; he'll think being Reject of th...

"Vitaly, Alonso is not faster than you. Can you confirm you find that as funny as we do?" - read on @sniffpetrol's twitter feed earlier during the race... I think the same sort of quote will be used lots of times over the next few weeks, ironic that after Massagate and all the talk of Web...

"......can you confirm you understand" Did the 2 times DWC really expect a car with track position to move aside for him? He's got class that guy. BTW as a huge Jaguar fan, well done to the team under its new name and owners at proving it can be done; Ford wanted Newey when he was at McLar...

Chewie

This race does highlight something about Hamilton: hes a little too willing to go with what the team tells him to. We've seen it before, on track with China 2007 where Lewis should have overruled the pre determined strategy and pitted, off track with the "liegate" scandal where the team t...
