Can't wait for this week end! Gooooo LEWIS!

!Zar! · 03-11-2015, 02:37 PM

Sad to see Alonso miss the first race. Would be nice to see what he can do with the McLaren.

I agree, one of my fav drivers. I believe the stories that say he got electrocuted, I don't buy that it was only a concussion after the crash. Jenson Button must be very uncomfortable right now.

Agamemnon · 03-11-2015, 10:23 PM

Seb in a Ferrari?
WTF mang!?

simmode1 · 03-12-2015, 10:00 AM

^^^Yeah, I really don't like Vettel at all. But I found it really odd to see him switch teams after just 1 losing season. Its like, if he doesn't have an overwhelmingly dominant car, he just falls apart instead of working with what he's got. Jensen + Alonso is going to be so strange. I love Jensen Button, but Alonso is such an anti-hero to me. I want to hate him, but he's just too damn good! Alonso has turned out some truly heroic drives in some truly shitty cars... lol

Trinidrift3 · 03-12-2015, 10:17 AM

hyped for this season to start. anyone have a good site for streaming of practice, qualifying, and race day?

slideslidegnarslide · 03-12-2015, 10:20 AM

^ this I haven't seen a race in 2 years.... I'm dying. We don't have cable because there is no reason for it with Hulu and Netflix. But I miss f1

I'm the same way! Been having to torrent the races after they air, but that can be unreliable. Need to find a good streaming site...

It really is not odd when you think about the fact that Schumacher was Vettels idol since Vettel was a kid. Of course he is going to want to go to Ferrari at some time in career. He already stacked up a phenomenal winning streak at Red Bull that would be hard to continue. It was time to go to the penultimate team in F1.

I was more surprised about Fernando getting the heave ho from Ferrari . Alsonso pulled some great performances out Ferrari at a time when there was much confusion and the chassis was less than ideal.
He actually represent a long time tradition at Ferrari of Spanish drivers in Italian cars.
Now granted Seb is a record breaking world champion and that goes right back to the whole Schumacher thing. Which does put a bit more perspective on the whole turnaround.

So here we are practice tonight 9:30 pacific. Sattelite TV man.

Gnnr · 03-21-2015, 07:56 AM

Those asking for streams, check your PMs.

The first race was pretty odd. Didn't like the reduced grid of 14 cars and only 11 finishing. Albert Park did not look as great this year either and there were minimal on track battles. I was more entertained by all the surrounding story lines happening off track for the weekend.

Hopefully Malaysia is a better show.

Agamemnon · 03-21-2015, 09:47 AM

Maya ladies should be better. Manor racing has promised they'll race for sure. Albert park looked dirty because of high than usual wind activity and was blowing lots of debris on the track.

I have high hopes that Ferrari and Williams can make some commotion behind Mercedes.

JadedNazgul · 03-21-2015, 10:04 AM

No more German GP guys... thanks Bernie..

migzs14 · 03-29-2015, 05:01 AM

Waaaaahhhhhooooo. Vettel/ Ferrari. Only thing missing was Schumi. Great battles and overall great race.

Gnnr · 04-04-2015, 03:55 PM

Great race! First time I have full respect for Vettel. Should be an exciting season and Williams, Renault, Sauber and Torro Rosso are keeping things interesting in the middle.

I started watching the NBCSN broadcast I DVR'd and it was annoying as fuck. Found out BBC was covering this one (as well as every other race it seems) so I grabbed the recording. Holy crap! It's 100x better than even the SkySports coverage!

!Zar! · 04-14-2015, 09:44 PM

Awkwardddddd

Jibbberish · 04-15-2015, 03:04 PM

Nico right now:

I want to see Kimi ahead of Vettel cause Vettel is a dork and Kimi hangs with the dudesons.

Gnnr · 04-15-2015, 06:21 PM

LMFAO

Gnnr · 05-21-2015, 09:05 PM

Bump for Monaco

Jibbberish · 05-21-2015, 09:08 PM

I was almost certain maldonado was gonna put it in a wall when he was out in the rain on slicks.

Gnnr · 05-31-2015, 02:29 PM

The Monaco race was the biggest croc of shit. It was a boring practice, qualy and race. I was amused with Kimmi cursing up a storm. Then the way it ended just soured the outcome for me.

Ya I really feel Lewis got royally screwed out of a win for the sake of giving Nico a three time win at Monaco. Nico is a good driver but not quite at the level of Hamilton.

It definitely felt like a sympathy hwin as Lewis had it sewn up and that last minute pit call just hosed him.
Now granted this probably was a honest mistake but how could Lewis's chief mechanic be so dumb?

Jibbberish · 05-31-2015, 08:34 PM

Yeah poor lewis that was crap. Not happy that Rosberg is now being compared to senna for three wins there in a row. If you can even call being handed like 15 seconds on a silver platter winning.

simmode1 · 06-01-2015, 08:34 AM

Well, Nico grew up in and lives in Monaco. Judgments in the favor of this hometown boy aren't really surprising to me at this point. But yes, it does suck.

OBEEWON · 07-29-2015, 09:43 AM

RIP Jules
Nico robbed Ricciardo of a win. He should have been penalized.
What happened to Williams this race? They should have been in the top mix.
Poor Kimi.
Honda seems to be getting it together.

Jibbberish · 07-29-2015, 10:43 PM

It was fun to watch Mercedes melt down after not claiming the start. Hamilton made a rookie status mistake that first lap.
And yeah I'm excited for Honda. They both had great drives. Alonso finished P5 ahead of Hamilton haha. Red bull seems to slowly be getting better as well, maybe Renault is finally figuring their shit out.

Here we go on another couple week break

soryu · 09-23-2015, 03:50 PM

ferrari stepping it up.

Jibbberish · 09-25-2015, 05:12 PM

Yeah hoping Ferrari will be a serious contender next year. We'll see about Red Bull as well because their chassis seems to be pretty good, an engine may bring them back.
